Fire Away (Ziall Horlik) AU

Chapter 15

Zayn's POV

Niall and I laid on my bed talking about anything and everything for hours. He was so easy to talk to about a lot of stuff. I learned he plays guitar and he's smart. I already knew he might make valedictorian.  I didn't know that he was so smart. I also learned he's never had a boyfriend. I even learned I was his first kiss. He told me why he moved to Bradford which was because his grandmother had past away and couldn't look after him and his brother anymore. They were sent here with his dad and mum.

I told him about mum and everything I remember about her. I told him I'm captain of the football team and that its the only thing I'm really good at. I told him a lot.

"How many boyfriends have you had before?" Niall asked my through the dim lighted room. We laid kind of separate from each other looking at the ceiling. Our fingers playing with each other as we talked.

"I've had one." I told him, I didn't like his question. I just hope he doesn't stay on the topic. I would hate to tell him about Liam.

"What was he like? Was he the guy that was here earlier?" He asked me. Somehow I knew I couldn't get out of this. "Yeah, he was okay. His name is Liam." I told him. I hope that's all he needs to know.

"Why was he here?"

"He just wanted to talk, but I didn't so I kicked him out."

"Can I ask why you guys broke up?"

"Do you really want to know?"

"I kind of do."

"Okay, me and Liam met at this party. It wasn't really a big party. We were young, like real young. We were playing spin the bottle and my spin just happened to land on a guy. Which I was relieved because I was in closet and I still kind of am. We kissed and he turned it into something deeper. After awhile I kept bumping into him around the city and he asked me out on dates. We ended up in a relationship. I was so confident with him, so I introduced him to my two best friends. I guess on of my best mates Louis had something I couldn't give him because they would sneak off together. Harry didn't know about it but I knew. I just didn't say anything. One day Liam came to pick me up for a date. He smelled of sex and had love bites from his neck to his torso. I knew that because he had to take off his pull over sweater and his hurt came up a bit. I finally comforted him and we had a long talk about it. He finally told me he's leaving me for Louis. Louis didn't want him. So Liam moved out of town and now he's back. I've also noticed Harry and Louis having problems lately and I don't know if it's related to him but I know wherever he goes there's always trouble." I I finished with everything said about Liam. I left out the part that I was totally in love with him. I left out the part of how sweet he was when it was just us. I also left out our fights. Our long fights.

"Liam really missed out on you. I would never do that. There's something about you, Zayn." He told me. That caused a smile and my eyes to gloss over with a little bit of tear. Non of which fell but I knew his words touched my heart. "There's something about you, Niall." I replied.

We continued to stare up at ceiling with no words said. I really wanted to tell Niall that I love him. I couldn't hold it back. I already did in a way and he said it back. I wanted to show him how much he means to me.

I rolled over and wrapped my arms around him and started to kiss up his cute face. He let out the cutest giggle.

I let my hands run over his perfect chest that was covered in a T-shirt. I pulled my face back to just admire his beauty in the sunset lit room. He leaned in and kissed my lips with his soft ones. I kissed him with those three words I just wanted tell him but couldn't.
