I Can Love You More Than This (One Direction Fan Fiction)

Chapter 13

KATE'S POV

I'm completely alone in the room while I lay on my bed. I'm startled as I hear someone open the door and walk in. I sat up and saw Zayn going towards my bed. He sat down beside me and one look at his face was enough to tell me that he was serious.

"Hey." I break the silence. My heart was pounding a hundred times faster as I realize that he was only sitting inches away from me.

He didn't say anything back though. He just sat there filling the room with absolute silence. My forehead creased. Why did he come here? He must be looking for Mary. But it's obvious he isn't here so why would he even bother staying?

"I need to tell you something." I was deep in my thoughts when he spoke those words.  He was staring at me with so much intensity that it made me feel nervous.

I felt my heart do a little flip. I was afraid to hear what he was gonna say but my curiosity seemed to get the best of me.

"Wh-what is it?" I stuttered. My heart was beating really fast and I couldn't seem to breathe properly. Okay Kate, calm down. Maybe he just wants to ask something about the boys or Mary. Remember how to breathe..

Inhale, Exhale

Inhale, Exhale

Inhale, Exhale

Inha- Oh. My. Gosh. What the heck is happening? My heart felt like it would explode any minute now. I was completely frozen as I felt Zayn's lips against mine. As soon as his warm lips hit mine, everything seemed to crumble away. I couldn't think straight. What exactly is happening?

Zayn pulled away and the corners of his mouth were turning up and it formed into a smile. He's gaze never left mine and I found myself not wanting them to.

"I love you." His voice sounded so happy. I wanted to believe him. Before I could reply to what he said, I heard someone groan from the door.

My eyes snapped to the direction of the sound. My heart stopped and my jaw fell to the ground when I saw Harry and Mary standing by the door.

Pain was evident on their faces. Harry turned his back on me and Zayn and started to walk away. I stood up as fast as I could and tried to follow Harry but I forgot that I was wearing a cast so I fell on the ground. I tried to push myself up but I couldn't.

"Harry! Harry! Come back. Please." Tears were now streaming down my face.

"Harry!" I screamed at the top of my lungs but he didn't come back.

"Harry." I shot up from my bed. I was sweating. I looked down at my hands and saw that they were shaking badly and I was panting.

'It was just a dream, Kate. It was just a bad dream.' I assured myself. I put my hand on my cheek and I felt that it was wet. I realized that I had been crying.

I look over at Mary's bed to check if she was awake and saw that she was sleeping soundly. I grab my phone to see the time, it was 12:48 am. I sigh as I realize that I won't be able to sleep again after what just happened.

I get my crutches that were beside my bed and start walking out the room. I lead myself outside of the house. The cold breeze welcomes me when I open the front door. I shuddered before I sat down on the little staircase on the front porch.

I look up the sky and admired the beauty of it. The sky was so peaceful, like it couldn't be ruined by anything. It was the total opposite of my life. Unlike the sky, my life wasn't peaceful. It's constantly being bothered by the thoughts of my sister and my unresolved feelings for Zayn and Harry.
