Love You Red❤

"Being gay is unacceptable." Lucifer said leaning against the doorframe.

"Whoever is gay doesn't get an entry in heaven, rather comes down to hell to us." Damon said rolling his eyes.

"Is that why?" Zayn asked turning to look at the demons.

"Yes." Lucifer said sadly.

It was a rare phenomenon to see the demons look sad, especially Lucifer. Zayn frowned. A lot of things had come to perspective now. They were talking about the possibilities of what Zayn's nightmare of Liam being snatched away was pointing at. It was a fragment of memory, but which one? Out of all the possibilities they all discussed, this one seemed to make the most sense.

All of a sudden, Zayn's shoulder blades started hurting. They hurt so bad that Zayn fell on his knees on the ground crying in pain.

"Zayn are you okay?!" Lucifer asked as Lucifer and Damon rushed to his side.

"Don't touch him, leave some air to breathe." Louis said calmly making them back away.

"What is happening to him?!" Damon asked worried.

"He's getting back what is his since birth." Louis said looking at Zayn who was struggling in pain. "Something that was snatched away from him."

Suddenly the room was filled with bright golden light that blinded them all. A painful scream was heard followed by complete silence. They blinked their eyes a few times to see clear before turning to look where Zayn was.

Zayn was taking deep breaths and trying to stand up. Blood dripped from his back and flowed down his gorgeous new wings. They were bigger in size now. Beautiful golden feathers like before but towards the end where the feathers uses to be red were now black, reminding Zayn of the black mark on his hand.

Zayn sighed and covered his face with his hands and started crying. Not from the physical pain, but rather from the emotional one. He was tired, he was oh so tired. There are two types of tired. One is a dire need of sleep. The other is a dire need of peace. Zayn needed the latter. He was exhausted from all the running and questioning. He just wanted his memories back which was forcefully snatched away by someone. Why couldn't he just get that?

What had he done so wrong that he was denied what was his? Fall in love? Or be born?? It was all too much. He had been holding him all this while but he couldn't anymore. He needed a release from all the pain within, hence he cried. He cried and cried until there weren't any tears left. His friends silently held him all along. They could try comforting him with beautiful white lies but that's not what Zayn needed right now. Besides, lies are lies. Be it ugly or beautiful. Hence the only thing Zayn ever heard his friends say was "We're here for you." The only truth and words Zayn needed at that moment.

Once Zayn calmed down, he wiped off his tears and stood up. He slowly opened and closed his wings. Oh how much he had missed it.

"I want to fly." Zayn whispered. "Fly again."

"You can fly here all you want Zee. Feel free to fly wherever and whenever you want!" Lucifer said with a grin.

"What if they snatch it away again?" Zayn said worried as he ran a hand over his new wings.

"Nobody can touch you here, Zayn. I'd like to see them try." Lucifer said, his eyes lighting up scarlet red again on thinking of the angels. He truly hated them.

Zayn smiled and nodded before going to the balcony. Zayn took a few deep breaths and he opened and closed his wings a few times before finally opening them and jumping off the balcony. Soon he was soaring high up in the red skies. He missed the feeling of flying, it was one of his favorite things to do. Now that he got his ability back, he was overjoyed. Zayn flew for a long time, looking down at the firey grounds of hell. At the different demons and their mundane activities. Once he began feeling tired Zayn went back to the castle.

"So?" Damon asked grinning.

"I'm so happy today!" Zayn said smiling with joy making the other three men smile too.

Today was a happy day. But how long would the happiness last? Getting the wings back marked the fact that Zayn was slowly gaining his powers back and the fact that the wings were now bigger than before was an indication that Zayn was slowly growing to his full potential. The prophecy was soon going to come true. The prophecy they've been so desperately trying to stop.
