I Don't Need You (A Zayn Malik Fan Fiction)

Chapter 25 ~ Fights and Kisses

Chapter 25 ~ Niall

"No! Do not try that! Tomorrow! TOMORROW!", Kali screams like never before. 

"This is not my fault!", Zayn fires back. 

They've been fighting, nothing physical, for the past half hour. Liam, Zayn, and I decided to stop by because we just had a meeting with Cheryl. She told us Syco records is signing up, but we need to fly to the US, for the American half of the record company, to discuss everything basically. If it wasn't obvious we are leaving tomorrow and Kali is not taking it well. 

Honestly I'm surprised she's the one that blew up and not Anna. When we came over, right away, we told our three friends we were signed. They were all ecstatic for us and everyone was happy, that is until Kali yelled, "Wait!" She pulled away from Zayn, "What's the bad news?"

Zayn bit his lip, rubbing the back of his neck, "Babe"

"No, don't babe me. Please", Kali had backed away from Zayn leaving him to sigh. 

Anna spoke first, before anyone else could, "Liam? What's the bad news?"

He took Anna's hands in his, looking her in her eyes as he spoke, "We have to go to the U.S. for almost a month to do final touches, some recording, writing, and making sure we really want this."

Anna looked really sad, I expected her to burst into tears, instead she wrapped her arms around Liam. She whispered something in his ear and kissed him, for a long time. Right there I assumed Kali would do the same thing, boy was I wrong. "You're leaving?", you could literally hear her heart break. 

"Kali, I'll be back in a month. It will be okay. We knew this would happen", he stepped toward her only to have her step back. They both looked so hurt and sad. I knew they loved each other but shit, this is some deep emotion. 

"Not this soon! I didn't think this soon! You're leaving me...", Kali whispered those last three words. I know they were meant for only Zayn to hear but being how close I was I heard them....all the saddness. She turned on her heals and ran to her room, slamming the door. 

All eyes were on Zayn immediately after the door slammed. "Fuck!", was the last thing he said before going after her. 

I didn't like fighting so after 30minutes of hearing them I've sunk into the love seat, knees to my chest. Liam and Anna are cuddled on the couch, talking quietly. "You...you can't!", Kali shouts, her voice cracking. 

I let out a small whimper. I'm never this much of a baby but hearing them two fight is like hearing your parents fight for the first time. I feel a pair of arms wrap around me, when I look up I find Louis smiling at me. "They'll work through it. It's their first major fight." I nod, not knowing how to respond. "Let's cuddle", Louis says nonchalantly. 

My heart skips a beat as I comply, I fix myself so I lay comfortably in his arms. I honestly can't help but what wonder what is playing through his mind as this happens. There is so much running through mine I can't even begin to tell you how I feel. If I know one thing, it's that I feel happy and safe. 

I start to calm down only to hear loud sobs coming from Kali's room. I look up at Louis, who had his eyes closed, pinching the bridge of his nose. I know he's just worried about Kali, she is basically his sister and at this point I bet he feels useless. I mean if it were me I'd want to march in that room and make it stop but he knows he can't always do that. And though this may be bad timing he looks really cute. Oh screw it I can't fight it back anymore. I pull myself up and quickly kiss his cheek. I watch his reaction as I pull back. 

Immediate relief settles over him as his eyes snap open. I bite my lip, trying to hold back a smile, as Louis faces me. He just smiles at me, kind of looking shocked. He lifts his hand and brushes it over my cheek, sending a shiver down my spine. He peaks over his shoulder and I follow his gaze, Anna and Liam are asleep. He turns his attention back to me, capturing my lips in his. I'm caught off guard but quickly respond and wrap my arms around his neck. 

He smiles into the kiss before he pulls back, "God dammit. Why do you have to leave tomorrow?"

I laugh, still flustered, "I'm thinking the same thing."

He kisses me again, shorter than the last time. "Does it sound quiter to you?"

We pull apart, listening for more crying or yelling. "I think they've stopped", I whisper, afraid if I speak any louder it will start again. 

"I'm gonna check on them", he whispers. He slowly stands up and walks down the hall. I can't help but stare at his ass in those damn skinny jeans. 

I lean over the back of the couch, watching and trying to listen. Louis quietly knocks on the door. After what seems like ages the door finally opens and Zayn stands in the doorway. I can't tell but it looks like he might have been crying too. Him and Louis talk and Zayn keeps rubbing the back of his neck or his fingers through his hair. Nervous habits of his. 

Everything seems to be going smoothly and normally when the most shocking thing happens, Louis hugs Zayn. I know that they've gotten better with each other but they have never so much as shook each others hands and now they're hugging. When they pull back Louis says something and Zayn nods before heading back into the room, shutting the door behind him. 

I'm really happy for Louis, that was such a huge step for him. I'm smiling largely at him when he walks back into the room. "What?", he asks, obviously taken back by my smile. I lean on the back of the couch, motioning Louis to come closer to me. He rolls his eyes and walks to the back of the couch. 

"I'm so proud of you", I say as I wrap my arms around his neck. 

He kisses my nose, making me blush. "Wanna go to my room?", using his head to motion down the hall.

I gasp, "At lest take me to dinner first!'

He laughs, "To cuddle, you Irish dork."

"I'd love to", I nod. I let go of him and climb off the couch, walking down hall I follow after him to his room. He let's me walk in first, shutting the door behind us. I look around his room. Posters of The Fray, The Script, Arctic Monkeys, and 5 Seconds of Summer line the walls; great music taste. I sit on the edge of his bed and notice how awkward Louis looks now. He runs a hand through his lengthy hair. 

"Are you shy Tomlinson? Never been in your room with a boy, alone?", I tease. He automatically straightens up and walks up to me. He stands between my legs, towering over me as I sit. "I must say I like this view."

"Since when did you become a tease?"

I shrug, "Don't know what yer talking about". I trail my fingers up and down his thighs.

He immediately grasps my face and kisses me, harder than before, not that I mind. I back up onto his bed further and he follows, hovering over me without breaking the kiss. His hands are place on either side of my head now, holding his weight while I sit up, resting on my elbows. We break apart,both of us breathless. "What the hell do you do to me?", Louis sighs. 

"Good things, I hope", I laugh. He drops next to me, wrapping his arms around me, "Definitely."

I turn in his arms to face him, "I'm sorry this is happening now, when I'm leaving tomorrow." I honestly feel bad for starting this up now just to leave for a month. Oh God! A whole month without Louis. 

He runs his fingers through me hair, "It's okay. Honestly, now I know when you're gone you won't be looking at other guys."

"So are we-like is this- are we-", I stumble over my words. "Are we together?"

"Yeah, yeah we are", the 22 year old smiles at me. 

"YES!", I strattle him and kiss him passionately. Acting like this makes me feel like I'm 17 again, yes I said, that.
