Niall's Pov:
Sometimes you can get a person completely wrong. Sometimes a person can be the complete opposite of what you think there like. Two weeks ago I thought Zayn was this asshole who cared about nobody, I thought he was the leader of a gang who sat back while everyone else got there hands dirty, I thought he was just like his dad, A coward. I never wanted to know him, I never wanted to speak with him, But when I got the chance to I'm glad I did. Zayn appears to be this tough guy that's scared of nothing, But he's actually a really gentle and caring person. This life, The life of a gang leader he never wanted it, Who would have thought it? It's crazy how your opinion of someone can change after just one conversation.
"Honestly Harry he's not as bad as I thought he was, He's actually a great person to talk to"
"So what you and Zayn are like bestfriends now?" Harry asked.
"No, Not exactly but I understand him alot better then I first did" I replied as I held my mobile to my ear.
"What changed your mind?" Harry questioned.
"Last week we got talking, He told me all about why he leads the gang, He only does it because it's what was expected of him, This gang has been in Zayn's family for years from the moment he was born people knew he'd be the one taking over" I explained.
"That's fucked up family loyalty" Harry commented.
"Exactly, And there's another thing, Zayn had pictures of my mum and dad, From there wedding, He got them all printed out and gave them to me" I replied.
"Ni that's brilliant" Harry said. "So what's happening now? You guys living with Zayn permanently? Or you looking for somewhere new to live?" Harry asked.
"Right now as far as I know the plans to stay here with Zayn, Lou and Li haven't really been looking for anywhere" I informed him.
"Alright well my mum wants to see you all make your sure all good" Harry said, I chuckled.
"I'll let the boys know and we'll come round when they aren't busy, Listen Haz I'm starving so I'll call you later"
After I'd ended my call with Harry I placed my phone on charge, I then stood up from the bed and made my way out the door. As I walked down the hall I passed Zayn's door and heard him on the phone, The conversation didn't sound to friendly.
"He's just a kid. Yeah dad I understand that but what can he do? Well if he crosses the line I'll deal with him then, I'm not gonna attack him for no good reason. I don't hurt people for the thrill of it dad that's not how I run things! I'm not you were two different people you had your time now it's mine so back off!" I heard a loud groan leave Zayn's lips, I then heard him drop down on his bed, I lightly tapped on the door. "Come in" Zayn stated, I slowly pushed the door open and walked into the room, Zayn smiled warmly at me. "You alright Niall?" Zayn asked as he sat up, I nodded my head.
"Yeah, I erm heard you on the phone to your dad" Zayn sighed. "Tell me to mind my business but are you alright?" I asked, Zayn nodded.
"Yeah, We do that alot. My dad sometimes forgets he's not in charge anymore, Wants me to do things the way he did" Zayn said.
"What did he want you to do?" I questioned.
"This guy owes us money, Keeps coming up with excuses about why he can't pay, He's got a son must be about thirteen, My dad wants me to attack him and send out a message" He replied.
"But you won't so that annoyed your dad?" Zayn nodded.
"Pretty much, I won't attack somebody who's done me no wrong, The kids not guilty of anything it's his dad that's the problem, I won't hurt an innocent person just to prove a point" I smiled warmly at Zayn. "What?" Zayn asked with a confused smile.
"Nothing, It's just your nothing like your dad" I said, Zayn smiled.
"Thanks. Hey listen you wanna get outta here?" Zayn suggested.
"Lou and Li said I gotta stay here" I said, Zayn smirked before standing up.
"Well I'm the boss and right now your the only company I want, So your coming with me to get some ice cream" Zayn stated as he extended his hand to me, I smiled before taking hold of it.
"You didn't seriously do that!" Zayn stated in disbelief.
"I swear I did! And I ate the whole thing by myself plus a milkshake!" I said, Zayn laughed.
"Jeez! Where'd you put it all!" Zayn asked with a laugh.
"Right there!" I stated as I pointed to my stomach, Zayn laughed happily.
"You know you actually amaze me Niall" Zayn said, I raised my eyebrow.
"Why?" I asked.
"Everything you've been through, Losing your mum and dad, I know things haven't been easy for you but everyday your still here smiling, When Louis and Li spoke about you, They made you seem like this little boy, But your not, Your one of the strongest people I know" Zayn explained, I shook my head.
"Nah, Nah I'm not I'm weak, Half the things Lou and Li lift I'd break my back even attempting, They've got muscles where I've got baby fat" I said, Zayn chuckled.
"Being strong dosen't have anything to do with that Ni. When you do what we do, You learn that no matter how strong you are physically certain things can still hurt you. They'll always be someone out there that's bigger and more experienced then you are. Just because a punch from one person dosen't hurt that dosen't mean the punch from his mate won't" Zayn stated. "The most important strength out there is the strength in here" Zayn pointed to my heart. "And here" He pointed to my head. "The strength you have in those two things amazes me" I couldn't help but smile, I looked to the ground so Zayn couldn't see the blush spreading across my cheeks. "Niall, Niall come here" Zayn stated, I quickly looked up to see him extending his hand to me, I took hold of it with no questions, I then looked up to see a group of boys staring us down. "Stay close to me alright?" I nodded my head. "Niall listen look at me" I looked up at him. "Nothings gonna happen to you just stay close to me" Zayn stated as he placed his arm around me. "Oi mate you need to move yourself" Zayn stated.
"That right?"
"Yeah see that's my car your leaning against, Now I suggest you move before I make you" The boy chuckled before moving closer to Zayn, My grip on him tightened.
"That a threat?"
"Nah mate, It's a fact" Zayn spat.
"You alright there little one? Don't worry I won't beat your boyfriend to badly" I felt Zayn's arm quickly shoot up, I looked up to see he had the boys wrist in his hand.
"Touch him your dead, Niall get in the car, Don't worry nobodys gonna touch you, Are you lads?" I quickly opened the car door and climbed in before slamming the door closed, Zayn twisted the boys arm around and he screamed in pain. "Now you've all got till the count of five to move otherwise bad things are gonna happen, You understand that?" Zayn stated, The boy nodded his head and so did his friends, Zayn smirked before releasing his hold on him.
"You'll regret this Zayn!" Zayn laughed.
"Course I won't mate" He said before opening the car door, I watched the boys closely as Zayn started up the car.
"Does the happen alot?" I asked, Zayn nodded.
"Yep, You always get people thinking they can act big and intimidate me" Zayn replied, I nodded.
"Thanks for not letting them touch me" I mumbled, Zayn took his eyes off the road for a moment.
"I wouldn't let them hurt you, Wouldn't let anyone hurt you" Zayn stated, He then placed his hand ontop of mine, I looked up at him before smiling. I definitely got Zayn wrong, He's got one of the biggest hearts I've seen.
