Rare Love

TAYLOR'S P.O.V.

'Where are you?' I text him.

'On my way!' he replies. A few minutes later, the doorbell rings.

I race down the stairs, open the door and literally jump into his arms, kissing him all over his face.

"Hey, hey! I don't get a simple 'hello'?"

I jump down still excited, "Sorry, I just really wanted you to come over!" I reply, leading him into the house. He takes off his jacket and throws it on the couch.

"You know Taylor, you're the most mischievous person I know."

I lead him up the stairs to my room, "Oh Zayn, you know you love me!"

He gives me a quick peck on the lips.

"So, what's the plan this time?"

"I don't know. I got her to talk about her family and stuff. She seems like a very caring person, maybe we shouldn't mess with this one in particular."

I push him onto the bed and crawl on top of him. "What do you mean we shouldn't mess with this one? You messed with me," I begin to slowly kiss his neck.

"Yeah, b-but you lead me... into it."

I give him a stone-cold look. "Listen, Robin isn't as perfect as she seems. I've known her for three years so I'm right about this one. Her mom is always screwing up her life anyway, so what does it matter?"

He thinks for a minute, then nods his head. "You know, you're right. This may be the best one yet!"

"Mmm... That's the Bradford Boy I know!"

*Ring* *Ring*

Zayn's phone rings and he answers it immediately as I slid off him and sit on my bed with my legs crossed.

"It's my mom, she wants me home right away!" He gives me a kiss on the cheek before leaving. "See ya, later babe."

"Yeah, see ya later," I reply, waving him off.

NORMAL P.O.V. (at Robin's house)

Mom thinks I am asleep but, really, I was wide awake until I hear some knocks at the front door. I quietly tiptoe down and open the front door to see Zayn Malik standing on my front doorstep.

"Here, you left these things in my car!"

He gives me my phone and doodling book. "Oh thanks, I've been looking for these." He smiles and not just an ordinary smile, but a perfect smile.

"I see you drew my name in there."

"Oh... I draw everybody's name."

"I've only seen my name."

"That's because-because I only draw rare names ha ha..." he chuckles, which is close to a LAUGH which means ZAYN MALIK THINKS I'M FUNNY! TOTAL FANGIRL MOMENT!

He takes a step closer to me, gazing into my eyes. I get so lost in them, I don't even notice when he gently cups my face and kisses me. Oh, how his lips are to die for!

What on earth am I thinking!

Mom would have my head if she sees I am up this late!

Quickly, I pull away, giving him an apologetic look. "I have to go. Goodnight, Zayn," I say, trying to close the door.

"Robin, wait!"

"Yeah?"

"You ever had a...boyfriend before?"

A boyfriend?

Mom never lets me date.

"Oh sure. I've had plenty."

"Ever consider having another one?"

"I don't know. I'd have to think about it," A tiny smile creeps onto my face afterwards.

"Goodnight, Robin."

Finally, I close the door and silently scream accompanying it with a happy dance. Though, I stop once I hear footsteps that could only be of one person. There is no use in running because that only makes things worse.

"Who the HELL was tha-t!?"

She can barely walk, talk, or see so it was a correct guess that she had been drinking heavily. As she staggers closer to me, her ratchet breath hits me like spoiled milk.

"Mom, you've been drinking again..."

"Of co...-ur...se not!!! DON'T ......eve-r t...al...k t-t--o me....e..."

"Mom you can barely speak, see or STAND!!"

Not up for dealing with it, I start for the stairs, but she firmly grabs my arm. "Ow! Mom, you're hurting me!"

"Were you out haa--...ving s.s.-ee---.x with some...b--o...y...y?"

"WHAT? NO! MOM, PLEASE LET ME GO!"

Chloe walks out sleepily at that moment and mom sees her. Oh great, just wonderful.

"Chloe, baby do you....s--e..e wha---t...a DIsggracee SHE is?!"

"Mommy, please let go! You're hurting Robin!"

She complies, but not without giving me a harsh slam to the wall. Then a slap on the face.

"YOU'R----E A FUC--KING Disgrace...! YOU DON'T DE...SER--VE TO LIVE!!!!"

Next comes the kick to the stomach.

"I WISH YOU WEERE NEVER BORN!!!"

Lastly, the punch in the face, "YOU'RE A --...FIL--THY B.I--TCH!!!! And STUPID."

Sadly, all I can do is lay there and cry. I see her stagger over to Chloe, but all she does is shake her vigorously. Somehow, I manage to get up and save her like I always do.

She is crying badly after mom releases her. "Robin, I'm scared!"

"Shh... It's okay. I'm here," I am like a second mom to her, sure I left her when I was supposed to watch her and ignored her most of the time, but I care for her and love her and feed her like an actual mom, something ours never does.

"Hey, do you wanna come sleep with big sissy tonight?" She nods slowly. Mom would pass out in a couple of hours and by tomorrow, she wouldn't remember a thing.
