Ahhhhh, hi my babies. I'm updating! I have been noticing people reading and re reading the 3 rounds series and I figured I owed it to y'all and to myself to update. Lemme give you guys a quick life update. I go away to university in August so things are quite different for me than they were when I first started these books. Anyways let's get on with it. You may have to read a few chapters back to refresh your memory. Please try to leave at least 7 comments for another chapter, it can be feedback, your reactions or, of course, an answer to the QOTC.

QOTC: what's your biggest fear?

My Answer: Hospitals...I fucking hate hospitals

I hate you, I love you
I hate that I love you
Don't want to but I can't put nobody else above you
I hate you, I love you
I hate that I want you
You want her, you need her
And I'll never be her
I miss you when I can't sleep
Or right after coffee
Or right when I can't eat
I miss you in my front seat

I hate you I love you// Gnash

"Zayn! Babe? Please slow down I'm trying to talk to you." Liam jogged to catch up to Zayn, the dark haired boy speed walking like his life depended on it.

Zayn exited the restaurant, leaving everyone behind yet Liam trailed right behind him. The boys both ended up behind the building, the tropical air filing the space around them. "Listen to me." Liam barked, grabbing Zayn's wrist.

"Get the fuck..." Zayn glared at Liam, trying to snatch his arm away.

Liam couldn't understand why Zayn was so upset, he didn't say he fucked Stella, this wasn't like his fiancé. "What's with you?" The Wolverhampton native asked, his eyebrows furrowed.

"What's with me? What the actual fuck Liam. Don't think I haven't noticed the heart eyes you've been making at that bimbo bitch since we got here." Zayn practically growled in anger, pulling his arm away from Liam's grip.

Liam was completely and utterly silent, he didn't know what to say. He didn't see what Zayn was saying. "Baby.." Liam began, his lips parted and his face softened.

"Don't fucking "baby" me." Zayn shook his head, his face inches from Liam's.

"Let me break this to you since you can't seem to understand." Zayn drew in a deep breath and began to talk. Tears welling in his big hazel brown eyes. Liam wasn't quite sure of how to react, Zayn never cried in front of him.

"You don't know what the fuck you want. All these years, all this time spent together and then apart and then together again. Fighting, fucking, arguing. All this time and I've come to the conclusion that you don't know what the fuck you want. But it's never been me, you're in love with the idea of me but you aren't in love with me Liam Payne."

Suddenly the tears started to flow and Zayn's image began to change from on of Dominance and anger to a crumbling, sniffling mess.

"What's it going to take for me to be enough for you?" Zayn whimpered

"Are you kidding? Everything I've done is for you Zayn! You disappeared for years and then you just waltzed back and I immediately fell back into love with you."

"You like knowing you have me Liam! You like having someone around. You can't stand to be alone."

"You need me Zayn. You're sick and deep down you can't be alone either. Perrie, Louis..you've never truly been alone."

"You're a selfish asshole, you use everyone else for your own enjoyment." Zayn growled, the boys closer to each other, their faces inches apart. Zayn couldn't smell the liquor on Liam's breath.

"You're a psychopath..you honestly think anyone could ever love you the way I do? Like I said, you need me." Liam's eyes started to get cloudy and dark.

His words struck a chord inside of Zayn, the boy froze and tried to hold back tears. His fingers traced over the fading scars on his wrist from his accident a few months ago. "Go fuck yourself.." Zayn choked out, leaving faster than Liam could react.

Liam blinked back a few of his own tears. He didn't know what he just said, it's like he blacked out in anger.

Liam slowly made his way back into the restaurant. All of their friends sitting around chatting like nothing happened. But as soon as Liam walked over it was apparent on his face that something had happened.

"Babes? What's wrong." Perrie asked with concern in her voice. She wanted to ask where Zayn went but figured right now wasn't the time.

"Everything's fine." Liam simply shrugged and sat down, tucking into his meal. Yet, his face was blank of emotion and his eyes were empty.

Later that night while everyone retired back to their rooms and the beautiful landscape of Santorini seemed to be asleep Liam was the only one awake, his puppy dog eyes scanning the scenery outside of the window.

Zayn haven't come back yet and Liam was started to get worried. Not only were they in a foreign place but Zayn already missed a dose of his medicine. He couldn't afford to miss any doses, the strategic pills kept him sane.

Arabella and Dani were sleeping in the room next to Liam and Zayn's. Liam wanted to cuddle up with his little girl but he also wanted to drink himself to sleep and go home from this stupid vacation.

After a heavy amount of liquor Liam slept through the night. The next morning the former boxer was woken up by sun shining in his room and a chime coming from his phone. The boy sat up and groaned, rubbing at his temples.

Liam grabbed his phone, letting his eyes adjust to his bright screen. A group message from Perrie, a text from Dani which was probably Arabella saying good morning and then a message from some unknown number.

Liam's eyebrows furrowed, the number was unknown and his phone said it was some junk number. Liam clicked on the message, waiting for the image to load.

Suddenly the image was clear and Liam's heart stopped in his chest.

"Holy shit.." he breathed out, exiting from the picture and scrambling to call 911.

His shaking fingers dialed the 3 digits but to his surprise the call was declined due to his phone being inactive

"Fuck , fuck, fuck. Come on!" He yelled, typing in Zayn's number. He figured it was worth a try. For some reason Zayn's phone picked up. But Liam was confused as to why the 911 call didn't work.

"I've been waiting for your call.." the voice on the other end sent chills down Liam's spine as his eyes welled up with tears.

"Fuck you." He choked out and with that the person on the other line ended the call.
