HARRY'S POV

Another messed up concert. 

We carried Zayn out of the stage and the fans went home. We're impatiently waiting for Zayn to wake up from unconsciousness.

Marco is sitting in the corner with Dan and face palming himself. I can tell that he's very mad at us for stopping the concert, again. But Zayn threw up and fainted, for Fuck's sake, give us a break! 

Suddenly, Zayn coughs and he opens his eyelids.

Zayn automatically sits back up and looks around him maniacally.

"Where am I?!?!" He tells, shaking from every parts of his body. "WHERE AM I?!?"

"At the concert!" Liam replies. "Zayn, calm down a bit!"

"He was there!" Zayn says, stretching his hand out to me. "He was there! He slapped me! He was there... he... he..."

"Who are you talking about, Zayn?" Louis asks.

"Niall..."

I can't help myself. This name... I said I never wanted to hear about him ever again. Why does he say it?

I run to Zayn and crash my foot on his chest, propelling him on his back. My foot stays on his torso and I look down at him, almost spitting on him. 

"DON'T SAY THAT FUCKING NAME, ZAYN!" I yell. "I TOLD YOU NOT TO, WHY MUST YOU HURT ME LIKE THIS?!" 

Zayn starts to cry.

"Harry, stop!"

Louis and Liam push me away from Zayn quickly, and I see Marco and Dan watching the scene with smirks on their faces.

"BUT HE WAS THERE, HARRY!" Zayn sobs, as fragile as a child who tries to reply to his angry father. "HE WAS THERE! HE YELLED AT MY FACE AND HE SLAPPED ME! I PROMISE HE WAS THERE!"

"Zayn, he wasn't there!" Louis says, delicately avoiding using the N word. "You were on stage all that time, it was only you, me, Liam, Harry and Dan!"

"But... But... I'm sure he was there... I saw him... He was there..."

Paranoia. That's what we theorize. Zayn has always been the first to swallow the pain killers when he suffers, and now it has taken over him. The pain blacked out his brain and made him hallucinate, probably.

I guess it's only a matter of time before it affects all of us. Why is all of this happening to us... why... why...

"Okay boys." Marco says, walking up to us. "I'm really disappointed in you. Dan made an absolute great job but you were very bad. Zayn, you should stop acting like a baby. You're not 6 anymore. Man up just a bit. If you want to be paid you should definitely take notes on Dan. I'm sick of your stupidities. I want to see your PERFORM! Now get off my sight and be back at the next rehearsal and be READY!"
