Cruel {Zarry}

36

Zayn got out of his car and greeted Liam, who had been waiting on him at Zayn's front door.

"Hey Li." Zayn happily greeted.

"You drove Harry home?" Liam asked as he used his key to open the door. Yes, he had a key. He was practically The Malik's other son.

"Yeah." Zayn said. "And it was amazing." He couldn't take off his big smile. He was so happy.

"I hate to pop your little love bubble but-" Liam got cut off by Zayn's hand that he held in front of him. "I know." Zayn dryly answered. "Just let me enjoy this moment for a second."

They both walked into the living room and greeted Mr. And Mrs. Malik.

"Oh dear it's so good to have you both home again." Tricia walked towards the both of them with open arms. Hugging them both at the same time. "It was so quiet here without you guys around."

"I missed you." She whispered in Zayn's ear. Kissing his cheek as she let go of the hug. "What about me?" Liam playfully asked, making them both laugh.

"I missed you even more." Tricia said. She turned to face her husband. "He did too." She pointed in his direction.

Yaser stared Trica down and rolled his eyes. "It's good to have you back home." He said it in general but Zayn knew that his father's words were directed towards Liam.

"So let's talk about what you guys did. Tell me everything." Tricia sat down on the couch. "Did Harry tried anything? I mean like did he tried to have your signature? Did he tried murdering you yet-" MOM!" Zayn interrupted his mother.

"Of course Harry didn't!" He snapped. He knew that his mother asked all those questions out of concern. She knew Harry's truth. Yet there was something about the truth that Zayn even didn't want to know or to think about. He liked the bubble he was in.

"I mean I'm obviously still alive, aren't I?" He tried to lift up the atmosphere. Since everyone was a bit too quiet now.

It didn't help though. Because even after some few minutes no one said anything.

"Good Lord." Yaser began. "The idiot has fallen for him."

"No I haven't!" Zayn argued.

"Exactly something a dumbhead would do. Fall for a liar, fraud, golddigger and murderer."

"Yaser!" Trica yelled for him to stop.

"Why don't you guys go to your rooms and get some rest, yeah? I'll send the maids with your suitcases upstairs.

From Harry:
Hey sexy! I just want to thank you again for the most amazing days of my life. I already miss you.

Zayn smiled at Harry's text. But his father was right, only a dumbass would fall for someone even after finding out what kind of horrible intentions the person really has. He had to make an end to it. To his feelings and to the fakeness.

But then again he couldn't. He still had a plan with Liam that required him to keep the fake shit going.

With that in mind he responded to Harry's message.

To Harry:
Hey babe, I enjoyed every single minute with you. I miss you too and I promise We'll see each other again soon. Love you.

Zayn laid on top of his covers and waited on Harry's reply. Luckily it didn't take much time before his phone started beeping again.

From Harry:
I hope we can spend Christmas together

To Harry:
Yeah! Actually my mom did say that I should invite you over. So what do you want babe?"

Okay Zayn lied. His mother never said that, but he's positive that he could bring everyone on board.

From Harry:
Omg really?! Yes I'm in! And you don't have to buy me anything. I already have everything (You)😍😍

To Harry:
Great! That way I can introduce you to my parents.😊

From Harry:
I already met them?

To Harry:
I meant as my boyfriend😐😳

From Harry:
In that case: I'M OUT! ✌🏼😂

To Harry:
Why?😂

From Harry:
I'm not really good at the whole meeting parents stuff and your dad scares me tbh

To Harry:
Babe you'll be fine, I promise.

From Harry:
Alright then. Only because I love you too much to say no.

To Harry:
And that's why I love you. But Imma go to sleep now. Bye baby❤.

Zayn plugged his phone charger in and got underneath the covers. The drive from the resort to his house made him exhausted. And let's not forget the energy sucking activity they had in the hotel they stopped at. He discovered all his purple and pink bruises under the shower. Some may call them lovebites, but for Zayn they were bruises. Bruises left by the devil all over his body. Marks of the evil. They weren't as bad as the mark he left on his heart though. The visable ones will eventually fade away, but what about the non-visable one? The one you can only feel. The one that could only be sensed. What about that one?...

That's when it hit Zayn. What if it never goes away? What if he never gets over Harry? What if Harry is the only one that he could love. Harry is the first person he loves and the first person he admitted it to. This was all so fucked up, he loved him for real but at the end of the day he had to pretend like he didn't.

Even if Liam and Zayn's little plan did work out and The Styles admitted their evil plan, will Zayn be able to kill his love? Of course he still wanted to kill him. Because one of the other eventually will get killed. He might as well protect his family and defend himself. But was it still called love then?

Zayn rememberd a quote he had saved on his phone. He unlucked his Iphone and searched for the quote.

You didn't love him.
You just didn't want to be alone.
Or maybe, maybe he was just good for you ego.
Or maybe he made you feel better about your miserable life, but you didn't love him.
Because You don't destroy people you love.
