Wednesday

Today was different. Zayn went to a nearby cafe to meet up with his friend Harry.

Zayn has known for a while now that Harry has been in love with Niall. It doesn't bother him. On the contrary, he wants Harry to take care of Niall once- once he's gone.

"Harry!", Zayn said as he walked up to the table were Harry was sitting at. "Zayn, what's up? What did you need to tell me?", Harry asked.

Zayn sighed as he sat across Harry, "Harry. I have- I'm dying. I have three days left to live.", Zayn said. Harry stared at Zayn seriously. "You're kidding right?" Zayn shook his head no. Harry's eyes grew misty with tears. "Why- what- Zayn, no please.", Harry said stuttering due to him trying to hold his tears back.

"I also know how you love Niall. I'm not angry nor am I jealous. I want you to take care of my Nialler once- once I'm gone.", Zayn said in a monotone tone.

"Please promise me you'll take good care of him, Harry.", Harry nodded. He had tears streaming down his face.

Zayn got up, "I have to go now. I love you Harry. You've always been like a brother to me.". Harry shot up from his seat and walked to Zayn's side and engulfed him in a tight hug.

"I promise you, I will take care of him and never stop loving him. I love you too, Zayn.", he said the last part in a whisper that showed so much pain. He knew that this was the last time he will ever see Zayn.

Zayn pulled back from the hug and smiled at Harry and gave him a kiss in the cheek before he walked back home.
