Once Again

Mariana

(Zayn's POV)

It's been about an hour since Taylor got in the shower. She hasn't come out yet and I know that she's hurt. This is why I didn't want to tell her about Mariana.

I knew that she would be hurt and she wouldn't want to talk to me. I hear the water turn off and I straighten up. I stare at the door waiting patiently for her to come out.

I hear her sniffles and her wet feet patter on the cold tiles. I bite my lip in sadness and look down when I hear her let out a slight cry. I look up at the door when she opens the bathroom door.

She steps out with wet hair and and tear stained face. Her eyes are golden and she looks at me for a second and then walks to the closet in her towel.

I stand up from the foot of the bed and walk to her slowly. "Tay?" She looks down and then sifts through her clothes. "Yes?" She says in a soft yet sad voice.

"I don't know what to say." She sighs and turns around. "Then don't speak." She gives me an emotionless look. I frown deeply and lower my hand to her face but she flinches.

My eyes widen and she frowns. I stare in shock at her and she wipes her eyes and then clears her throat. "Just go take your shower Zayn." She turns around and takes out a black shirt and some jeans.

I stand there blankly as she walks around me and starts to dress. I turn around after a bit and she's dressed by now. "Did you flinch?"

She frowns and looks at me. "Zayn don-" I scoff and wipe my face roughly. "Don't...don't Zayn me, Taylor. You flinched away from me!" She throws her hand in the air.

"You fucking choked me!" I stop and glare at her. "I wasn't myself and you know that." She sighs and says "yeah Zayn...I know that okay?, but that doesn't mean that I'm still not hurt."

She says and drops her head to the side. I groan in frustration and charge at her. Her eyes widen in fear as I slam her into a wall. She shakes in fear and I place my lips on hers.

She stops shaking and sighs in relief. She kisses me back slowly and I hold her waist in my hands. She holds her hands to my chest and tilts her head.

I get lost in the kiss till she pulls away slightly. Only to kiss me again. I smile slightly and pull away slowly. "You have to trust me when I say...I will never hurt you like that again."

She stares into my eyes and asks, "what if she gets in your head again?" I sigh and say "I will stay away from you and Olive, so I can't hurt you." She holds my cheeks and smiles sadly.

"I will stay with you through this Zayn, Forever." I smile and rest my forehead on hers. "Forever." She stands on her tip toes and kisses me softly. I hold her waist gently and kiss her back lovingly.

She takes her long nails through my hair and grips me tighter. She slowly pulls away and I'm met with those bright green eyes again. I back away quickly and her face turns back to normal.

"What's wrong?" I gulp and look back up at her to see Mariana smirking at me devilishly. "What's wrong my love?" I glare at her harshly. "Don't you ever call me that you manipulative bitch!"

I launch at her and I hear a yelp. I glare down to see Taylor looking fearful once again as a tear slips out of her eye. "Oh my god." I say as she quickly wipes away her tear.

I collapse onto my knees and she sinks down next to me. She holds my face and licks her lips. "Hey, hey it's okay I know that you saw her....this is gonna be harder than we thought."

She stares into my eyes. I hug her closely and she gasps. "I have an idea!" I pull away and ask her, "what is it?" She stands up and paces around the bedroom.
