Part Five ~ Playing the Police

Saturday 11th February 8.46 am

"Zayn, Zayn, Zayn, Zayn!" There was banging on Zayn's bedroom door

Zayn groaned and rolled over. His door shook as Niall hit the door

"Zayn" One last strangled name call came from the blonde boy locked outside

Zayn got up out the bed quickly as opened the door to find a very sick looking boy

"Niall?" Zayn asked surprised

Niall immediately hugged Zayn and started to sob. Zayn wasn't sure what was going on but he hugged Niall anyway and brought him into the hotel room. Zayn kicked his door shut and left it unlocked

"Hey" Zayn hushed him "what's wrong?"

Niall started to hyperventilate and Zayn had to know what the mater was and to know that Niall had to breathe

"Calm down" Zayn sat him on the couch

Zayn sat on the coffee table in front Niall and took both his hands

"Breathe in" Zayn demonstrated "and out.. C'mon deep breaths"

Niall breathed deeply with Zayn till the tears had stopped

"All better?" Zayn tilted his head

Niall nodded as he wiped his eyes

"Now tell me what's wrong" Zayn spoke with a concerned tone "why are you like this?"

"L-Liam" Niall rasped

"What?" Zayn pretended to act confused

"He's dead" Niall whispered

"How is Liam dead?" Zayn asked

"I-I can't" Niall started to have an anxiety attack

"Niall baby-" Zayn's eyes widened when he realised what he'd just called Niall. Crud

Niall was hyperventilating again and he was muttering like a mad man as he started to get upset again

"Baby, baby, breathe" Zayn decided it was better than nothing

Niall nodded but continued to heave and go blue in the face

"Baby breathe with me" Zayn took hold of his shoulders

Niall looked into Zayn's eyes and once again breathed deep in and out in time with Zayn. Once Niall had calmed down, Zayn held the blonde boy to him tightly, one hand on his lower back and one on the back of head

"I've got you" Zayn whispered "it's okay, I'm right here"

Niall's arms were under Zayn's pits and his hands held his shoulders. Zayn continued to hush Niall and soon they started to sway slowly. Niall's eyes began to droop and Zayn continued to help the scared boy to sleep

"It's fine" Zayn whispered "It's gone now, it's over"

Niall's eyes shut whilst his chin rest on Zayn's shoulder and Zayn rubbed circles into the bottom of Niall's bare back. Niall gave a small him before a soft snore escaped his lips

"Good boy" Zayn smirked "just go to sleep"

Niall started to weaken in Zayn's arms and Zayn lay Niall on his bed. He tucked Niall in and decided that keeping Niall in here would definitely help gain his trust

Zayn got under the covers with Niall and lay with him, still hugging him the way they were when Zayn started to sway

"Sweet dreams" Zayn kissed Niall's nose
