Once Again

Red

(Taylor's POV)

Ring ring ring, oh my fucking God!.....I roll over onto the floor unfortunately. I let out a squeal and Zayn pops up instantly. I stand up and smile at him.

"Hey babe sorry." He looks at me and raises an eyebrow. "Did you just roll off the bed?" I shake my head with my bottom lip out.

"Um, no I don't think I did." He laughs and lays back down. I chuckle and he says "your phone is ringing." I roll my eyes and say "no fucking way, how did you hear that?"

He laughs and says "with my ears baby." I scoff and pick up my phone and answer it.

(End of call)

I stare at my phone blankly and Zayn stands up and walks over to me. "Baby what's wrong." I suck in a breath and I feel tears spring to my eyes.

I look up at Zayn and then my legs give out. Zayn's arms spring out and catch me. "Woah. Love what happened?" I start crying and Zayn holds me into his chest.

"R-red...He had a hear-heart attack." Zayn's eyes widen and he holds me closer. "I'm so sorry Tay....how's your mom?"

I cry harder and say "I don't know, she sounded really upset though." He nods slowly and kisses my head. "Why don't you get ready and we will go see her okay?"

I nod slowly and Zayn helps me up. He kisses my cheek and says "I love you okay?" I nod and say "I love you too." I pull away and go take a quick shower.

After I get out Zayn hops in and then we both quickly change. I slip on my jeans and a red t-shirt and ironically so does Zayn. I grab my beanie and Zayn does too.

He smiles at me lightly and says "we are matching today." I nod and he grabs my hand and leads me down stairs. I grab my car keys and Zayn and I slip on our shoes.

I run out of the house and start my car. Zayn comes out with his phone and hands me mine. "You left it." I nod and mumble a 'thanks' I speed off in my car.

After a few minuets I take one of my hands off the wheel and tuck a piece of hair behind my ear. I set it down on my stick shift and Zayn grabs it in his big one and holds it gently.

He kisses the back of it and says "it will be okay baby." I nod not really listening. Reds always been like a dad to me.

My real dad is just an asshole who never bothered to take an interest in me for a while. I mean my mom and.I left him, but it was his fault.

He beat my mom on several occasions and she always thought I never knew. But I could hear him yelling at her and her yelling back. Then he'd hot her and she'd hit back.

I guess one day she just got sick of it and we left. I was two, I still remember the look on his face when we left. He had slight sadness in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.

Then my mom met red and I hated him. My view on it was he wasn't my real dad so I'm not gonna treat him like one. But then I got to know him, and I love him like a real dad, I even call him dad.
