Do I Scare You?- [Zayn Malik AU]

Chapter 55. {Tricia}

[Tricia]

"We have to get out of here, Luce." I mumble so only she can hear me, I know that blonde kid could be anywhere...

He's extremely creepy, and that's coming from me who's used to years of abuse. I wish I did get away from Yaser more quickly, maybe Zayn's childhood wouldn't be as bad as it was. But the past is the past, and it makes us who we are now--I say that to Zayn many times but he has this idea of revenge in his head all the time. He can't just let stuff go. He can forgive but never forget. He has to end up doing something about it, he's that kinda boy. However, he is my son and only child, therefore I support him 100% whatever decision he choose to make--even if they are completely berserk.

~*~*~

"Mum. I'm moving." my brown eyes wide at my son's words. He was eighteen--where could he be going to? University?

"I'm going to London... my gang is going to meet up there, and we're going to situate there for a little while." his words stab my heart like sharp knifes, causing my head to throb at the thought of him leaving me in Bradford. I'm a widow now. I'm alone with my son who is my little spark in my life--that keeps me alive.

"Gang? Z-Zayn... You said--"

"--no mother! It's not the damn gang dad was in! I'm not that stupid! How can you even suggest that?! You've practically insulted me!" he rages, just like he always seem to do. I just have to stay calm and he'll soon be back to normal... If I snap back, it would only make him more furious.

"S-sorry, sweetheart. I didn't mean to jump to conclusions--you just mention the word 'gang', and I instantly thought of your father. Tell me more about your gang. Are they good people?"

A smirk formed on his face, "Yeah mum. They're decent people. Each of them have a quality that makes us a solid team. Without one of them, we wouldn't be complete."

I nod my head in response, though his words doesn't make sense to me, "Whatever makes you happy, son. I just want you to be safe and--a mother can't help but worry about her son, especially you being my only child. Is that so wrong?"

His smirk is slowly dissolving as he shakes his head, "I won't be gone for long. We just need to pick up this kid, get to know each other a little bit more and stuff--then yeah, we'll be back."

"Okay Zayn. Are they all from Bradford too? How did you meet?"

He smirked again listening to my nosy questions--I can't help but want to know what's going on in his life, he's usually so guarded so I leap at every opportunity to know what's going on, "No they aren't. I've met two of them because... a few nights ago, I got into a fight--" my breath hitched at his words and I immediately scan his face for any serious injuries, but he dismisses me with his hand, "--I'm fine. They kinda helped me, I guess. Anyway, yeah we all realised we're alike in the fact that Horan kid messed up our lives and family, so we thought we'd all team up... I'm the leader."

Horan... that name will haunt our family forever. I'm sure he murdered my husband, and though Zayn seems unfazed but he fact he did so, I still can't help but feel weary about that kid. He's more then what meets the eye. You'd expect nothing like what he actually is, when you look at him. I've only seen him twice, and those time were just him practically undressing me with his eyes. I find that disturbing but Yaser just chuckled.

That night after Horan did what he did checking me out or whatever, Yaser flipped out at me in our bedroom. He had a mental outburst, breaking almost everything in our room. When he reached to me, he did things that I don't ever want to remember. I remember the pain though, and have scars that will forever stay on my body from that night--and many other nights. He didn't like it when guys looked at me. He blamed me, like I led them... When actually, I did nothing of the sort.

He wouldn't understand that. To him I was just a doll, that he could play with whenever he wanted or toss around too. Zayn was just a result of one of those 'play times' but Yaser didn't treat him as badly as I thought he would. He did love him. I know he did. He tried to do things father and sons do, but Zayn wasn't into the sports that Yaser liked, therefore he didn't get along with young Zayn. Instead he'd constantly call Zayn a wimp, pussy, a girl for being talented in things that Yaser didn't enjoy doing. I on the other hand, was extremely proud. I showed that to Zayn everyday, whenever I picked him up from school and he presented me with another masterpiece.

Zayn was a extremely popular kid and everyone wanted to be his friend. He was everything I could dream a son would be. He was perfect... in my eyes.

But isn't every son perfect in their mother's eyes? I loved my son more than anything, and I would do anything to protect him... even if I was trying to protect him from his own father.

As time went on, it was Zayn who ended up protecting me. He hasn't lost that protective side of him, and it seemed tome he's found another to protect too.

"Come back soon, Zayn. Stay safe."

~*~*~

Zayn knows what he is doing--he always knows what he is doing. He always has a plan. My trust well never leave him. I will always listen to whatever he tells me to do--knowing that whatever decision he makes, will be perfect.

But nothing is perfect, almost know that, but my son even with his endless flaws, will always be close to perfection to me.

"I know we do, just how though?" Lucy whispered back through the darkness. I feel like my son would when I say my next words...

"I have a plan."
