Zayn's POV
-----
Today had gone amazing and exactly how I had planned and we were headed to a hotel room for the night. Due to the fact that only I knew that I would need extra clothes, Maya hadn't packed any. We finally got there and I held her hand and led her through the lobby and headed towards the elevator. We went straight to the penthouse and when we got there I looked at her to see if she liked it.
"Impressive!!! " she said with a huge smile.

"Yup, and it's just for us."

I had gotten it all set up to make the night romantic and perfect. We went to go check out the rest of the place and go to bed when i finally asked her a question that i have been dying to know.
She was now under the blanket wearing one of my t shirts and nothing else. It was hard not to look down.

"Maya, I've told you everything about me, but you havent told me anything about you.."

She hesitated and i saw hurt flash across her face for a second, but it quickly went away.

"umm its a long story"

"We have all the time in the world"

"Its complicated"

"Try me"

"I cant tell you"

"Why?"

"Because their are some things in life that should be kept hidden and my past is one of them. the other girls dont know much about me either"

"Well then i will be the first to know pleeeeeaaaaassssseeee. I promise I wont judge you and plus how bad can your past be?"

"Well definetly worse than you think"

"Its ok"

Why was she trying so hard to get out of telling me her past? What was she hiding? Why didnt she want anyone to know?
I had no idea what I was about to hear. I had no idea about her life and as she started, I definetly didn't know what she had been through...

Earlier At Maya's apartment
-----
Everyone gathered around the fireplace and ate pizza. Niall sent zayn a text questioning why he was so late and where he was.

Niall-" where are you guys . We are about to watch the Conjuring. Should we wait for you?"

Seconds later his phone rang.

Zayn-" we are a bit far from home so we are staying In a hotel overnight. We will be home tomorrow."
----

"So should we start the movie or do we wait for them?" Kirti whined.

"Nope, they are staying at a hotel tonight so lets start the movie." Niall replied

"As long as she doesn't come home pregnant. " said Kyra as they all burst out laughing. She quickly grabbed her phone and sent a text to maya and zayn in their group chat.

Kyra- "use protection ;)"

Maya-" eww shuddup -_-"

Zayn- "I might have to take you up on that Kyra"

Kyra- "SEE! I WAS ON TIME YOU COULD'VE CAME HOME PREGNANT OMG IM A LIFE SAVER I SERIOUSLY DIDN'T WANT TO BE AN AUNT AT THIS AGE THANK GOD!!"

Maya-"Ok both of you shut up and let us be. Unless Kyra wants details of everything here. ;)

Kyra-"EWWW SHUT UP MAN!"

Zayn-"Well we're all alone in this penthouse, Maya's wearing my clothes and under it she's... ;)"

Kyra-"OK ZAYN MAYA SHUT UP IM LEAVING BYE!!"

Maya-"LOL KK"

Zayn-"Bye."

Kyra put her phone away and clicked play on the remote.
It all started with Maira screaming like a little chicken cuz she was scared. Everyone laughed, but...
Little did they know how scared they'd be in the end....

Maya's P.O.V
----
I can't believe he is asking me about my childhood. What do I say? What if he doesn't like me? How do I tell him?

" Errm so long story short . My mom passed on when I was young, my dad was abusive, outta control. A drunk bastard he was. I ran away from home and went to the nearest store I could find...
The store keeper was a nice middle aged woman. She saw I was hurt, so she called the police and an ambulance took me away to check for anymore injuries.
I was put into an orphanage. You know those group of kids that never get picked in their life? Yea.. That was me. No one wanted me.
When I was old enough they put me in to move into this apartment with the other girls. They don't know much about my childhood, only the fact that I'm an orphan. So don't you dare tell them..."

"I'm so sorry maya. Don't worry, you always have me okay? I will be here till the end for you. You don't need to hide anything from me because I promise I won't judge you. I love you!"

"I love you too"

"The scary thing is though..." As I trailed off remembering the memory. A tear slipped down my cheek.
Zayn wiped it away and I smiled.

"Yes?"

"The thing is... I remember those guilty, and pitiful eyes my father had when he saw me that day. The police dragged him out of the house and he was in the police car. It's like sense knocked right into him that moment the police came to the door. I haven't seen him so remorseful ever in his life. Tears were running down my face that day as well. I was screaming to the police to let him go. That he had changed. I ran to the police car to stop them. My dad mouthed an "I'm sorry" and what I believe was a "It's for the better of you" then they just left like that."

"Maya, the past is the past, you can't keep going back there. You need to live in the present. What's done is done, what's said is said, life closes many doors just to open that one lucky one for you. Life is a rollercoaster. With it's ups and downs, switching of sides, and new people to get on each ride of your life. That is life." Zayn explained to me.

"I think I needed that." I said as I laughed and a few more tears rolled down my cheek.

I snuggled into him and he put his lips on mine. It was a soft, slow kiss but it was needed. I still felt butterflies though, nonetheless. The effects that guy has on me is a wonder...
I pulled him in closer and ran my hands through his hair. We then just layed there in bed. I was pressed against his chest hearing the soft beat of his heart. All else was quiet. Zayn was sniffing my hair, creep.

"Hey Zayn?" I asked looking up at him.

"Hm?"

"Nice rollercoaster line" I said while giggling. "So mature man" I said.

"C'mon you love it, all the Directioners do."

"Yea, but I wanted something special." I complained.

"Oh you want something special?" He said looking me in the eyes smirking.
I just layed there staring at him.

"Yea?" I whispered.
He put his face right beside my ear, let out a hot breath sending chills down my spine, and said. "Lets go to sleep now, I'm tired."

He then pulled himself back looking the opposite way.

"Zayn Jawaad Malik!" I yelled. But, I couldn't help, but chuckle at his lame corny joke. Wow, typical fanfic moment.
He turned around and hugged me and just like that, the 2 of us went to sleep.
