Niall laid in bed thinking of how his life drastically changed since the first day he went to that field trip. He had real friends, ones that weren't cannibals or flesh eating monsters. He remembered them, he also remembered the way they died and who killed them. It was scary to him that he always replayed their deaths in his dreams, sometimes even when he was day dreaming. He'd get that random shiver, or that cold front moving up his arm like it was his fault. 

Although he wasn't allowed to take the blame, no, according to Zayn it was his fault, not Niall's. The older boy worried he'd fall into a depression if he blamed everything on himself so instead he turned the tables on himself. It's not your fault Niall, I was stupid and careless. How true were Zayn's words to Niall though? 

Niall stayed in his little world until an abrupt knock intruded his thoughts, "Who is it?" Niall asked calmly.

"It's Liam, you okay in there?" 

"Yeah I'll be out in a bit, I'm just tired you know; me turning into a cannibal and all..." Niall said, hinting at Liam he really didn't want to talk to anybody right now. 

"Oh I see, well take as long as you need to." Liam tapped the door lightly and headed downstairs once again.

"Of course I'm okay..." Niall whispered to himself while he stared at his hands. What was Niall suppose to think of himself now? Was he classified as a murderer, a cannibal, or a human? If he was a human he'd be plead insane, if he was a murderer he'd already kill Zayn by now; but what was a cannibal labeled as? Both? Was this some kind of messed up destiny of Niall slaughtering Zayn into bits and living his life terrorizing the townspeople?

No of course not... At least that's what Niall liked to tell himself. He got up from his bed and headed downstairs. He figured staying in Liam's bedroom for four hours was long enough as it was. Plus he sort of guessed Liam was annoyed that Niall was intruding his personal area.

"Oh so now you decide to come down." Harry announced as he flicked his eyes back to the TV. His arm loosely dangling over Louis's arm as they both concentrated on the intense match of Rugby.

I'll never understand those two. "Um yeah I guess. I wasn't going to stay up there all day anyways, there some things I need to clear up anyways."His eyes landed on Zayn's, and Zayn already knew they were about to have the 'talk.'

"Oo good luck with that. I already know were this is heading, rest in peace Zayn. How does that sound on the tombstone babe?" Louis asked teasingly.

"Oh please, do you honestly expect Niall to keep the body? I'm sure he'd have his own personal cremation before we ever find out the autopsy, we'd be lucky to even find him in an obituary." Harry quipped, still watching the game gapingly. 

"Oh good one! I second your notion." Louis laughed as he sipped his sprite.

"Are you idiots finished." Zayn glared at them, Louis waved his hand while Harry nodded; not caring wether or not the troubled love birds were hearing every part of their conversation. 

Niall sighed as he headed out the back door, Zayn trailing behind slowly. Niall opened the back door and a cool breeze hit his face softly, "I guess Summer is officially over with." He said to himself. 

"The heat is finally going away, I was never a big fan of the excruciating heat anyways. I'm more of a cold person." Zayn stated, trying to start a conversation.

"Trust me I noticed the day we got put into a cabin together..." Niall muttered, while Zayn chuckled to himself. Smart little shit...


After a short moment of silence Zayn stood up and broke the silence, "Listen Niall I'm sorry I've been such a shit boyfriend to you... I've just... I don't know, this is all very new to me that's all! I don't quite remember dating anybody before I became a cannibal."

"Oh that's a shocker." Niall replied boredly as he looked and saw two random boys playing football in the backyard. What the...


Zayn groaned and flipped Niall over, "I love you Niall, and only you. I promise I won't ever hurt you physically nor mentally anymore. May Zeus strike me with his wrath dare I do it." Zayn finished and kissed those sweet, tender lips of his Snowflake once again. Niall blushed deeply as the butterflies erupted once again, creating a new spark once again in their relationship. "So how was it." Zayn asked shyly as he pulled away.

"A little bit sloppy, but I'm sure we can work on that in the bedroom." Niall winked, kissing his boyfriend a second time. "I love you, and don't forget that." 

"I won't." Zayn smiled, "I guess we got ourselves a snack." He pointed in the backyard as he saw a tall, buff looking dude throwing a football at a thinner lad. 

"C'mon Tom you got to do better than that!" 

"Shut up Max, you can't throw for shit anyways!"

"I thought I heard cunts in the backyard, oh well what do you know. Romeo and Juliet are finally back together." Liam smirked, Louis and Harry following right after.

"I'm sure that was a different predicament, thank you." Niall sassed.

"Now's not the time for a sas battle, amateur. We got food awaiting for us," Louis and Harry were about to take off but Zayn held out his hand before they could.

"I think... Niall should go first. Since he is the newbie of the pack, right babe?" Zayn kissed his cheek lightly. 

"Mmmm, those humans do taste good though." Niall's eyes flashed into a tinted red, "Time for a snack guys." 

The pack went off and devoured the other two humans menacingly, though they didn't care. Zayn had his lover back, and Niall would finally enjoy a life he'd soon adjust too and love. 

"Did you enjoy your first meal." Zayn asked, kissing those sweet lips of Niall again.

The younger boy shrugged with a sly grin, "What can I say... I Am Cannibal."
