•Renae's POV•

My eyes fluttered opened remembering what happened last night. I got up quickly and made my way to my balcony. I opened the curtains and rolled my eyes at the sight of Zayn asleep against the balcony railing. I closed them and walked out of my room and walked down the stairs into the kitchen. I opened the fridge and scanned it looking for something to eat. I grabbed a package of flat bread, strawberry jelly and milk. I walked over towards the cabinet and got out a plate and glass. I put the bread in the toaster and waited for it to pop out. As I waited I walked back upstairs to my room and disconnected my phone from the charger as I checked my twitter and messages. I then walked over to my glass door and opened the curtains. How long does this boy sleep?! I made my way back to the kitchen and put the bread on my plate as I spread the jelly on it. I put the bread and jelly away and then poured the milk and put it away. I walked back up the stairs and into my room with a plate in one hand and a glass of milk in the other. I set them down on my desk and walked to my door and closed it. I walked to my desk and picked up the plate and glass of milk and attempted to open my back door. "Ugh" I groaned. I had forgotten I had locked it last night. I set the plate and milk down once again as I unlocked the door and opened it. I grabbed the milk and bread and walked out onto the balcony and sat down next to Zayn. He looked so peaceful when he slept. I sighed overwhelmed with everything. I set the plate and glass of milk aside as I tucked a piece of hair behind my ear and got on my knees as I scooted closer to Zayn. "Zayn..Zayn!" I whispered moving his shoulders. He groaned as he shifted his head to towards me. "Zayn, are you awake?" I ask as I look back into my room and see my brother Mason staring at me and Zayn. Wow really great. I get up and walk towards him as I grab his wrist right when he opened the door. "You are not to repeat what you saw" I say as I look at him seriously. He nodds and runs out of my room. I close the door behind him and lock it. I walk back to the balcony and see Zayn rubbing his eyes. I sit down next to him and can't help but smile. "Goodmorning" I say as I reach over for the glass of milk and plate of bread. "Goodmorning" he says with a raspy tone grinning. "I made you breakfast" I say as I bite my bottom lip and hand him the glass of milk and plate of bread. "Thanks" he says as he takes it from my hand. He takes a bite from the bread and takes a drink from the milk. "Zayn, we need to talk" I say looking down and bite my lip. "About?" Zayn asks taking another drink of his milk. I stare at him and roll my eyes. "Last night" I begin to say. "I can explain Renae" he says and turns his body towards me. "I want you to explain to me" I say dreading his response. "Everything that's happened to you was me..but as for what happened yesterday was not me" he says looking at me in the eye. "I didn't do it because I wanted to..I did it because someone forced me" he finished and looked down as he moved his glass around making the milk move around. I really couldn't believe it. I had no capability of speaking. I literally felt like I was going to throw up. "Renae I really wish this never happened and if I could have stopped it I would've" he began to say. "Who is making you do this?!" I say as I look at him and shake my head. "He's just someone that you don't know" Zayn said nodding his head finishing his milk. I stay quiet feeling the tears filling up my eyes. I blink and they all stream down my face. "Renae.." Zayn says as he pulls me close to him and wipes my face. "I can't do this any more Zayn! I don't want to take this further if I know when I'm out with my friends you're watching me for somebody else!" I say as my voice cracks and more tears stream down my face. "That's why I'll stop..but I can't promise you the situation will stop" He says and looks at me in the eye. At this moment I feel safe in his arms for some apparent reason. It's a strange feeling for me and I don't know how to take his explanation. "Please Renae..I hope you not only believe me but forgive me" he says and hugs me tighter. "Yes Zayn I believe you I just want to know which were you every time something happened" I say wiping my tears. "Alright..the very first time was me. The second and third time was me as well and the fourth time wasn't only me it was me and this other guy..as well as the fifth time. The sixth time was not me but the seventh was. The latest one wasn't me" he said as he let out a sigh of relief. "So you used your moms car for all of this?" I question looking at him with a confused look. "Yeah..we can't use our own cars" he said licking his lips. "I have a lot of questions for you but I'm not going to overwhelm you with them all right now...I'll ask you another time" I say and laugh to myself. "So do you have any plans today?" He asks as he looks at me and smiles. "I was planning on going shopping to find an outfit for a party tomorrow" I say and smiled back at him. I loved it when he smiled with his perfect lined teeth and jawline. "Can I come with you?" he asks as he chuckles. "Of course!" I say and grab the play and glass as I get up. Zayn does the same and stretches. I walk into my room and set the plate and glass on my desk. I walk back and lean against the door. "I'm leaving at 11, so if I were you I would leave my house and get ready" I say and smirk. "Alright then, I'll see you in a bit" he says and climbs down my balcony as I see him walk away from my house. I walk back inside my room and close the door behind me. Where has my mind went?! I ask myself as I open my door to the hallway and make my way downstairs and into the kitchen and out the plate and glass in the sink. "Hey mom I'm going to the mall today and I was planning on going to a party tomorrow. You think that's okay?" I ask her hoping she'll say yes. "That's fine, just tell your dad" she tells me and smiles. I smile back and walk past her making my way to my room and opening my closet picking out my denim washed high waisted shorts and my white ying yang crop top. I undress myself and get into the shower and let the warm water hit my body.

•Zayn's POV•

"WHAT THE HELL MAN?! I SAW YOU! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HANGING AROUND HER?" Louis said over the phone. I rolled my eyes as I undressed myself and walked towards my bathroom. "Look man! You can't tell me what and what not to do! Ill talk to you later, I'm getting in the shower" I say and hang up as I get into the shower and turn on the water. I sigh of relief and close my eyes. I never want to hurt Renae again I think to myself. I knew this was a bad idea from the start right when Louis opened his mouth about it.

As I got out of the shower I wrapped the towel around my waist and walked into my room. I picked up my phone and connected it to the charger. I walked over to my closet and grabbed a pair of black jeans and my white guns n roses t-shirt. As I put on my boxers my phone started to ring. I walked over to it "Hello?" I answered. "Sorry I just wanted to know are we going in your car or mine?" Renae asked over the receiver. "I'll pick you" I say. "Okay, see you in a bit" she says and hangs up. I walk over to my bed and pick up my jeans and put them as well as mg shirt. I walk back to the bathroom and do my hair and shave the a little bit of the stubble. I then walk back to my room and put my boots on and grab my phone from the charger as I make my way downstairs and sit down on the couch. I knew for a certain that Renae was not ready. Girls take forever to get ready. They tell you 5 more minutes but really they're telling you 1 more hour. "Zayn, are you going somewhere?" my mom asks as she sits next to me. "Yeah, I'm going to the mall with Renae" I say as I fiddle with the end of my shirt. "Alright well have fun" my mom says as she gets up and walks away. I look at the time, 10:35. I pull out my phone from my back pocket as I open the front door and walk towards my car. I lean against it and dial Renae's number and wait for an answer. "Hello?" Renae answers. "Are you ready?" I ask getting into the car. "Let me just finish my make up and put my shoes on!" she says as I can hear her moving around. I start the car and back up driving down the street towards Renae's house.

As I enter her driveway I walk to the front door and ring the doorbell. A boy about 10 years old answered it. "Hey you're the boy that was asleep on Renae's balcony this morning" he said as her dad walked into the room. "What?!" her dad asked looking at Zayn. "What?" I say with a confused look on my face trying to change the subject. "Renae's in her room" her dad says and walks into the kitchen. I start to walk upstairs when the boy taps my side. "You better not break her heart or I'll kick your butt!" he says as he punches his fist into his palm. I smile and continue on up the stairs as I read Renae's room. I knock on the door. "WAIT" She says as I can here her moving around. I take a step back and lean against the hallway wall. She opens the door and takes a step back. "What are you doing here?" She asked pulling me in her room. "Relax I didn't sneak in!" I say as I chuckle and spin her around. She rolls her eyes and sits on her bed while she puts on her black with white chuck tailors. "Are you ready?" she asks as she stands up and grabs her Chapstick and phone. "Yes but are you ready?" I say and look at her. "Yes I'm ready! Let's go!" She says as she locks her door behind us. We both walk down the stairs and I run into her little brother again. He looks at me like he wants to kill me. I have a feeling he doesn't like me. "I'm leaving bye!" she shout into the house and closes the door behind her. "Gosh you don't even say bye to them you just say you're leaving and you're gone" I say as I chuckle. "Stop making me feel guilty" she says and opens the passenger door to my car and gets in. "I was supposed to do that but whatever" I say and open the drivers door and get in. I start the car and turn on the radio and back out of her drive way and drive my way down the street. When I turn the corner Tomlinson is there parked blocking the street with his 1969 mustang. "Crap" I whisper to myself as I hit the brakes. "Who is that?" Renae asks with a confused look. I get out of the car and walk forward to him. "What are you doing?!" I ask as I walk towards Louis. I can he's mad and that isn't very good. "WHAT THE HELL ZAYN?! DID YOU REMEMBER THAT WE HAD PLANS TODAY?!" He shouted as he moved closer to me. "Well our "plans" for Renae are cancelled!" I say as I raise my voice. "What's gotten into you man?!" He said his voice calming down but still raisin. "Oh and you're asking me that?! No you should be asking yourself!" I say yelling at him. He walks over to me and God knows what he'll do next. He kicks me in the gut as I wrap my arms around my spot as I fall into my cars hood. "MAYBE THAT'LL KNOCK SOME SENSE INTO YOU!" He said and got into his car and drove off. "ZAYN" I hear Renae scream faintly. My eyes drowsy as I slowly fall to the ground.
