The Break Down

21.

(Taylor's POV)

I glare at the siphon as a tear streams down my face he sighs and plops down next to me. "Hey I hope there are no hard feelings after this angel." I roll my eyes and scoff. "Sure no problem."

He smiles and nods, "I love when you're sarcastic love." I purse my lips and say, "what do you need from me?" He leans towards me and says, "you are all I need-" I smack his hand away a from me when he moves my hair away from my face.

He straightens his mouth and groans. "Taylor don't do that, no need to be stubborn." I smirk and say, "you must not know me very well...because I'm very stubborn." I lean closer to him and take a brow.

He grips my jaw and says, "don't test me." I spit at him and he wipes it off lowland then slaps me hard. My body falls to the floor and I blink harshly. It takes a minute for my eyes to focus and I groan. "I said not to test me Angel...but you just have to push me."

He picks me up and caries me to a darker part of the boat. It wasn't till just now that I realized the boat was moving. "Now you're going to think about your actions." I get tossed onto a mattress and I groan.

I try to get up but I'm pushed back down and I still can't gather my wits enough to fight back. "Shhhh, it's gonna be okay." Then the last thing I hear is a metal door slam shut and I pass out.

(Zayn's POV)

I hold my baby's head to my chest and just squeeze her for dear life. "Hey hey baby are alright?!?, did he hurt you or touch you I swear to god-" she cries at me. "No I'm fine!" She wipes her tears but more just keep flowing as she crushes into me once more.

"Where is he taking mama?!?" I look off and say, "I don't know baby but we are gonna get her back." She nods and Ian bends down next to me. "Zayn I have an idea." I look over at him and nod, "let's get to work."

After a car ride back to my hi me so Olivia could bathe and change her clothes to get some sleep. Olivia can e down stairs with wet hair and a hair bruh. "Dad?, could you brush my chin hair?" I nod and pat my lap she walks over and plops down.

I take her brush and starts to comb gently through her long locks. "So love, if you are ready to talk I need to know everything that happened on that boat and I mean everything okay even the most awful details."

She nods and sniffs. "But if you aren't ready just yet to let me in on it....it's alright I'm not going to force you...I want you to be able to have time." She nods slowly once more and says, "I wanted to tell mama and you at the same time."

She turns around to face me and sits on the couch next to me. I set her brush down on the coffee table and say, "I know you did sweetheart..but I'll tell you what Olivia Rose Malik, we are gonna find your mum and we are gonna make sure she is safe."

She wipes her eyes and nods. Ian came out of the kitchen and smiled at her. "Hey there little one, how you feeling?" He kneels next to her. "I'm alright Ian...I'm sad." He nods and half smiles, "it's alright to be sad though, you wanna know why?"

Olivia's little eyes widen. "Mhmm." She says. Ian smiles and says, "it makes you stronger." She frowns, "I don't feel strong." He chuckles a bit. "Hey it okay, you don't ever feel strong at first when being sad, but as time carries on you'll find that you get stronger and stronger each time."

She smiles slightly and leans over to hug him. He hugs her back and smiles to himself. "Thanks Ian...you're my best friend." He looks over at me and I nod slightly. "You're mine too little one." She smiles at him after pulling away.

"Are you tired baby?" She nods and says, "yeah....c-can I sleep in your bed?" I nod and kiss her cheek. "Of course bunny." I nod at Ian and scoop Olivia up in my arms and carry her upstairs. Her head rests on my shoulder and she holds on to me.
