Zayn POV
As I had expected, I would have a longer day. I got detention earlier because apparently telling a teacher that their opinion is irrelevant can get you punished. Seriously, this bitch was going on and on about how I was supposed to be listening to her boring teaching about Shakespeare. Seriously, who has any interest about learning about a person that can't speak like a normal human being? So for obvious reasons, I fell asleep and she woke me up and told me to pay attention. Anyway, now that those 4 hours of hell are over, I'm finally heading back home. You know Liam and I were pretty distant even though I considered him a brother. Not like an older or younger brother, I just felt that close to him. Even so, I was still pretty distant to him, and no one, even my parents don't know that much about me. The fact is that I'm afraid to be true to myself. Oh well. Whatever, better not to think about it. I need to get home.
You know, this place is a lot different than Bradford. This place is pretty awesome, unlike Bradford. I had felt even though I hadn't talked to anyone, I was sure that I'd be able to talk to these people easier. These people just seemed more approachable than the people in Bradford.
Oh shit, now it's raining. Great. I better run home. I'll just cut through the park and I'll get back sooner.
Wait. There's someone sleeping there on that bench. Wait isn't that that kid that Liam was talking to? I can't remember his name, but whatever.
"Hey, hey. Come on now, wake up. You can't sleep here."
"Wa-what? (startled) Who are you? Wait, you're Zayn." Niall said groggily.
"Why are you out here asleep? Don't you have anywhere to go?"
"No, so I decided to lay out here." Niall said and looked away embarrassed.
"Alright then. Well you're spending the night at our house."
"Wait. What? I didn't ask for your help." Niall said angrily.
"I don't care if you aren't asking for my help. I'm going to help you. Now come on."
"....Fine. But just for tonight." Niall said in defeat.
So we walked in silence until we got home. As I opened the door to the house, he got tense for some reason.
"Are you familiar with my house or something? Er... Niel?"
"Niall. And this looks exactly like Liam's house." he said.
"Yeah. He lives with us. Were you here earlier?"
".... yes." he said finally.
"Well, alright. Well let's go inside."
Niall POV
Shit. I can't believe I'm going back into this house already. I really hope that Liam is asleep. I really don't want to see him right now and I plan to avoid him as much as possible. But it isn't going to help me getting sick outside.
"Well it looks like Liam is asleep in his room. Would you like to sleep in the guest room?" Zayn asked.
"That would be great! I mean... yeah thanks."
"Hehe, alright I'll show you the way." Zayn said.
"Alright, here it is. It's a little small, but I hope it'll do." Zayn said.
"It's perfect. But I'm tired so I'm going to go to sleep right now."
"Alright, I'll just close the door on the way out." Zayn said.
"Really Zayn thank you for all your help."
"No problem."
*Zayn leaves*
I just lay on the bed and think for a bit. How is it that I can come back to the same place I just fled from? What if I run into Liam in the morning? Why didn't Zayn pressure me into telling me why I was sleeping on a bench? So many things are happening, but one thing's for sure. I just need to make it through this, with as little help as possible.
