Beautiful Chaos

Chapter 6

Zayn's P.O.V---

"Zayn ?" She asked, surprised. She was dressed in a grey crop top with pink cotton shorts. Her hair was in a low bun with locks of hair, dangling by her cheeks. "Yeah. Can he crash here tonight ?" Liam asked and she raised an eyebrow. "Come in." She replied, moving aside. I walked in clumsily with Liam holding me tight. "This man here got himself really drunk. I want him to get some counselling as well as a good place to be at. He wanted to go to Perrie's but they fought, very badly. I can't have him home cause my girlfriend's parents will be there tomorrow early morning. With snappy, hungover Zayn in the house.. It won't be pleasant. I talked to Josh, who is also drunk. I convinced him and he is kinda okay with this idea. Is this okay with you ?" Liam asked and she nodded.

WTF! He was going to let me be with her ?! Omg! "I'll take care of him, Liam. You don't have to worry." She said, suppressing a smile. I could see she was disappointed. I felt bad instantly and cursed myself for getting this drunk. But she was the reason. I shouldn't be blaming her though.. I felt soft arms snake around my waist and I looked beside to see Lakshita standing next to me. She lifted my arm and put it around her shoulders. She was holding me. Wow! Great impression. "Thanks. Bye, Lakshita." Liam said, walking out the door before closing.

"Let's go upstairs.." She said and I nodded. We walked up the stairs clumsily which was indeed my fault. She held me tight, not taking a risk of letting me fall down. Her touch instantly surged electricity through my veins. She gave me this feeling I've never ever felt in my life. And I knew I could never get it with someone else. She pushed open her bedroom door with her foot and walked me to the bed. She sat me down and I instantly lay down. Laptop, earphones, a duffel bag, chocolate wrappers, a teddy bear and few other things. She cleaned the bed and fluffed up the pillows.

She pulled off my shoes and socks, resting my head on a pillow. She pulled a blanket on for me, brushing hair out of my face. It all felt so right but I couldn't and shouldn't have it. Josh was the one who'd be getting this. "Goodnight.." She whispered and lay down on the couch, covering her perfect figure with a thick blanket. I slowly drifted off to sleep.

I was on stage with the boys. They were singing a song which I didn't know the lyrics for. It was their song! Our song! But I didn't know it. I stood there on stage, dumbfounded. The fans started yelling ill things at me and I stood there, completely useless. The boys kept singing not caring about me. I turned to see Josh playing the drums, happily. Lakshita sat beside him, smiling wide. He stopped when he had to and she kissed his cheek. He turned around kissing her by the lips and the crowd started cooing. "I love you..." He whispered loud and she smiled. "I love you, Josh."

Tears streamed down on my cheeks and kneeled down on the stage, sobbing into my hands. 'We hate you, Zayn!' Was trending around the arena. What did I do to deserve this ? I turned back again and Josh was hugging her tight. Her cheeks had this constant dimples. He whispered something and she laughed cutely. It hurt so bad. "Lakshita..." I whispered very quietly, but she turned to look at me with a smile. She stared at me, not blinking and looked at Josh who pulled her into a kiss.

I woke up to feel soft arms wrapped around my shoulders, my head on a softer pillow. I fluttered my eyes open to see Lakshita. "Hey.." She whispered, smiling. "What happened ? Why aren't you sleeping ?" I asked looking at the clock which showed 4 a.m. Spoke to her for the first time. "Couldn't cause you were having a nightmare." She said, looking concerned. "I'm sorry for spoiling your sleep. You can go back now." I said, realising how close she was to me. "You didn't spoil my sleep. I just woke up cause I felt something was wrong." She said and I raised an eyebrow. She shook her head, smiling down at me.

"Go back to sleep. I'll sit by the couch." She said placing my head on the pillow. I didn't want her to go. I was scared to let her sit away from me on the couch. She got up when I caught her wrist. "Please don't go.." I said, on the verge of tears. "Why ? Is something wrong ?" She asked, looking at me with concern. "Please don't leave. Stay beside. Don't go away from me.." I said, sounding very desperate. She sighed and sat down, looking at me. "Thank you!" I smiled and she giggled. "So cute." She said, brushing my hair. "Don't go away.. Sleep here. Please don't go." I said again and she nodded. "I won't. Don't worry. You're okay. I'm here.. Go back to sleep." She whispered, leaning closer to me.

She entangled her fingers in my hair, playing with it. I liked no one touching my hair but her playing with it was so good. It made me feel very good. It soothed me like I've never been. "I have to talk to you.." I said sitting up. She sat facing me, her legs crossed. "About ?" She asked and I sighed. "Lakshita.. I've been distant with you since we met right ?" I asked and she nodded. "I liked you since I first saw you. You were different from the girls I've met and heard of. You are different. I didn't want to grow close to you and develop other kind of feelings for you. But it's killing me to not be your friend. I just don't want to lose an amazing girl like you. I'm sorry if I was ever rude. Will you be my friend ?" I ranted and she smiled. She quickly pulled me into a hug, making it tight. That hug, it felt like only she belonged in my arms. I felt so complete, but, she was Josh's.. "It's okay, Zayn. I would love to be your friend." She giggled softly and I smiled wide. But I did wish it was more than being friends with her.

"Zayn ?" She said, pulling away from the hug. "Hmm ?" I replied, staring into her warm chocolate brown eyes. "Even though we could continue with this hugging and being friends, I want you to sleep. You're still tipsy. I want you to rest." She said and I nodded. "Okay, but don't go." I said and she smiled. I lay down on the bed with her beside me. She hugged a pillow which I so badly wished was me. "Good night." She whispered, brushing my hair and I slowly fell asleep, watching her sleep.
