1 year later...
Liam stared with a blank expression.
Finally he could leave.
He walked slowly out of the room.
Therapy sucks.
Love sucks.
Life sucks.
Liam misses Zayn.
A lot.
He'd gone insane when Zayn passed.
He cried every night.
He dropped out of school.
Liam didn't even go to Zayns funeral.
He couldn't.
But he's started to get better.
He finished school online.
Liam got his own apartment
And he just finished his last therapy session.
He remembered the day Zayn kissed him.
Liam smiled to himself.
He started his car and drove the opposite road from his apartment.
He pulled up to a sadly, familiar building.
He stared.
He got out of his car.
Liam took a lift to roof.
He walked around.
Finally he stopped at the edge.
Liam sat down,
And sighed to himself.
His heart felt heavy.
Eyes cloudy.
But he felt a presence beside him.
A light arm around his shoulder.
Real or not he put his head on Zayns' shoulder.
He knew he'd never be with Zayn again.
So Liam savored this moment.
He breathed in Zayn's scent.
He smelt the same.
He looked the same.
A tear cascaded down Liam's cheek.
He felt the tip of a thumb wipe it away.
Together they stared at the city.
Zayn's spirit had to visit Liam.
No matter the consequences.
So they sat in silence.
Hearts full of unsaid emotions,
And held on to each other one last time.
But this time,
Liam thought as he smiled;
Zayn didn't look away.
