"Uh hi." I said awkwardly

"Umm .. May I ask whom you might be ?" This young boy that looked as if he were in his mid teens asked.

"Oh um Chris . Chris Hemsworths." I said feeling dumb for not introducing my self right away.

Chris ? That name rings a bell. Chris ...? CHRIS ! The guy that texted my mum.

I was nearly shocked that he was actually standing in my home.

My mouth parted and my eyes were slightly wide.

"How might we help you?" Niall asked from the couch .

"Oh um , I'm looking for a Trisha Malik or maybe she goes by another surname ." He said

"W-well umm... she's not here at t-the moment .

I was still completely caught of guard .

"Oh , well um I really need to talk to her , tell her to phone me. She's already got my number . Maybe you could leave a message for me also."

I nodded .

I slowly ripped out a piece of paper from the notebook that was placed on the table . I grabbed a pen from the pen holders and handed it to him . As he wrote the note he tried to engage in small talk.

"So , you're like her nephew and he's your friend ." He said referring to Niall and I ."

"Um .. no. That's her son and I'm her-"

"Yeah I'm her son and he's a friend of mine ." I said cutting Niall off.

The last thing I wanted was for there to be a big up roaring and more drama. Niall looked as if his head would explode and he had confusion written all over his face.

I was trying to rush him out of the house but it was like the world was on everyone else's side but mine and my mums today because I heard her car pull up in the yard before anyone else did.

"How do you know Trish ?" Niall asked slowly .

Before he could answer . The door knob twisted and mum walked in .

Her face paled and she stumbled back a little .

'Chris' took a few steps over and helped her regain her balance .

"You alright babe?" he said . Now .. the wasnt the worst part . He gave her a soft kiss , on the lips .

Niall looked calm . He looked at her and then at him . He got up and walked out.

Oh bloody goodness

When I followed him I saw that he had went to my room . I went inside and shut the door quietly.

He was seated on the bed with his ankles crossed and his face in his hands .

"Niall." I whispered in his ear.

"Are you ok." I asked sadly

"Yeah." His throat was full of mucus (ew) when he spoke so he cleared his throat.

"I mean , yeah. I really can't get mad or upset because I did the same thing . Maybe a little worse . Alot worse. Because you no ... I cheated w/ her son I mean you. I'm really sorry for that . If you were wondering why I became less touchy and distant .. I was trying to correct myself but , I can never take that back . I j-just." his bottom lip started to quiver and his voice sounded as if he were about to cry but trying his best not to.

"I-I just don't wanna b-be alone. I can't stand it . I have to feel and be loved even if it fake or a one night stand . Your mum- ... she gave me just that . I remember that night at the restaurant . My two of my friends and my 2nd eldest brother crushed me to bits. Nobody ever listened or cared about my emotions. That day I broke down at the park ... She listened to me pouring out my feelings. I remember it like it happened 5 minutes ago. The memory is so fresh yet such while ago."

*Flash Back

I just finished UNI and I'm so exited . I exceeded my tests . You don't understand how much I sacrificed and worked hard for this . I missed one of my closest cousins wedding so I could study ... yeah I know . crazy . I once stayed up to 5:30 studying & I had to wake up at 7:00 .

One of my main reasons to doing all of this was because of a job I wanted .

It was well paying , the hours weren't long (do from home mostly) and it had been my passion since I was in the wound . It basically was a job to we're you just sit in an office , studio or at home and help assist in the music writing . Basically I got to write music and get paid for it . Henry was one of the managers so he could easily get me hired. He said that I had to work for it and he wouldn't just give it to me.

So that's what I did . And everyone new.

So my older brother Henry (he has 2 brothers) and 2 of our friends(mainly his friends) took me to a restaurant to congratulate me (that was the original plan) .

We sat down and the first fifteen minutes consisted of us drinking , laughing and having playful banter .

My girlfriend Sarah walked sat next to one of Henry's friends named Billy (haha billy >.<).

She was my first love . I was head over hills for her .

I'd spend money on her that I know I didn't have , I'd fight for her and even take a bullet for her.

Anyway , I gave her an confused expression wondering why she was here.

"Sooo about the job ."

I started smiling brightly and got very exited .

"I'm so ready for it . I worked so hard I even-"

"I gave it to Sarah." Henry said cutting me off

It took my a while to put together what he'd actually said to me .

I thought they were joking ... that was until I saw that they're faces were flat

"W-wh. Why ? She didn't even go to school and I worked so hard . You even tol- What the hell." I said bewildered.

"Sarah you knew how important this was to me " I said softly to her . She rolled her eyes at me and then whispered something in Henry's ear. He smirked and I heared him slap her bare thigh . She moaned. Everyone roared with laughter .

"Oh and ... we're kind of together now." Henry said with a playful grin on his face .

My heart broke and I'd never felt so deceived in my entire life. That was the day I became vulnerable and needy. I coped with it by having sex non-stop and being in relationships with people that listened to me tell my problems over and over again.

That leads to the day I met Trishia.

Zayns POV

He was staring at the wall deep in thought . It had been awhile so I started to worry .

I shook his shoulder lightly .

"Yes." He said with his voice cracking

"Well ... I just wanted you to know that It would be helpful if you told me what's going on in your head.

"I can't help you when I don't know what's going on completely. What memories are you referring to . Babe come on ."

He looked at me through wet eye lashes and tugged me closer to him . I laid down and he followed this action. His face was buried on the crook of my necked . I felt wet tears. His shoulders shook and he hiccuped repeatedly.

It was kind of a weird feeling but I liked it . At the same time I felt so bad. Yeah , he did me wrong but ... I love and care for him and he's in need of someone and I'd be crazy if I didn't comfort him . He needs someone .

Even if he doesn't like me the way I like him , ill still treat him like the amazing man he is .
