Bye Darlings x
Zayn was ... quiet, one would say. all throughout his years in high school, he only had four friends, Louis, Harry, Niall, & Liam.
oh Liam. Zayn would often awake at night, staring at his ceiling, fantasizing about what it would be like to have Liam be his, & his only.
but who is he kidding? Zayn is the shy bookworm, & Liam's an outgoing prep. Zayn was lucky to even be friends with him. at least, that's what Zayn thought.
Liam & Zayn were oddly close. To others it might've seemed weird, but somehow, they made it work.
you could often find Zayn in the public library, studying for Uni exams, or simply to find a good book. he had an favorite though, you see. Greek Mythology. it fascinated Zayn to no end, & he would often read about Zeus & Hera, Poseidon & Artemis, Athena & Apollo & all the other gods out there.
Liam found it absolutely adorable how passionate Zayn was about this topic. & it was this reason, & this reason only he agreed to come to the library to help Zayn pick out a new book.
As Zayn trapezes through the rows of many musty bookshelves talking about something or the other, Liam follows him like there was nothing more important in the world.
& finally they reach the section Zayn's been itching to show Liam. he selected his favorite book, turning to the page he knew by heart.
"Liam, I'm about to read you my favorite myth by far" Zayn announced.
Liam nodded "alright, go ahead".
"humans originally had four arms, four legs, and a single head made of two faces. Zeus, fearing their power, spilt them in half, condemning them to search for their other half for all eternity" Zayn read importantly.
"Liam, what do you think true love is?" Zayn asked, truly curious.
Liam thought for a moment, before replying. "I need to think about it for a while. sleep at mine tonight, I'll give you an answer then".
& Zayn obliged immediately, anything to spend more time Liam. They got into Liam's car as they drove to his little tiny flat, right outside of London. it was a rather pleasant drive, & Zayn quite enjoyed the scenery along the way.
"I only have one bed, I hope that's alright with you" Liam added cautiously, trying not to show how desperately he wanted Zayn to curl up with him in bed.
Zayn shrugged it off like it was no big deal, but in truth, he couldn't be more happier.
they spent the rest of the evening together, doing everything & nothing. Zayn loved to go to bed early though, & Liam agreed willingly, although he's never gone to bed before nine.
Zayn cautiously curled into Liam's body, his shape molding to fit Liam's perfectly. & Liam wrapped his arms around Zayn, more than content.
"Y'know, babe, you never told me what you thought true love is" Liam said absentmindedly, & Zayn's heart kick started at the nickname.
"if I say, will you?" Zayn replied quietly. Liam nodded.
Zayn took a big gulp of air. "I think true love is .... is when you don't have to speak to communicate, when you feel safe, when you trust somebody with your life. love is love" he concluded.
"I believe love is when you feel at home, when all you want to do is be with that person all the time. when you want nothing more, & you're perfectly content. when you don't have to worry about your appearance, or saying something wrong. but most importantly, the feeling has to be mutual" Liam said bluntly.
and oh. Zayn reeled away, tears pricking at his eyes, because it has to be mutual.
he rolled away from Liam, to the other side of the bed, tears falling from his eyes.
Liam sat up and leaned over him. "why are you crying, love? I planned my answer out perfectly, it wasn't supposed to make you cry".
"I'm crying because it will never be mutual, Liam!" Zayn cried. & shit, did he just let his secret out?
this hit Liam like a slap in the face. "you love me, don't you Zayn?" he asked.
"yes, I do! & I'm sorry, because I know you're not gay. how could you ever love this?" Zayn gestured to himself.
Liam leaned down to whisper is his ear "how can I not?".
they shared their first kiss, the curtain parted slightly, revealing tiny crystallized snowflakes falling outside their window, each one unique, just like their relationship.
