NYC, Manhattan, New York

It was a sunny day in Manhattan. Not a single cloud covering the clear blue sky. The warm summer breeze was blowing through the tall buildings and through the trees of Central Park, causing the leaves to rustle gently. Birds and pigeons were carelessly flying around the huge city, cars were honking loudly in the smallest pits of the streets and people were rushing up and down the pavements. The afternoon traffic was busy as always, the city overruled by construction sites which caused a lot of traffic jams.

Zayn loved it here. Although, the people weren't the friendliest, he still liked living there. It was more than amazing. After moving here half a year ago, things turned out better than expected. The boy felt refreshed. He was more comfortable in his skin than never before.

The boy still had a lot of contact with his friends back in Stowe and he couldn't wait until Bella and Alex were finally moving to New York for college. For him it meant that he was able to see them again every day and hang out. Harry was still in high school since he had just finished junior year, but he would see him soon and Perrie was off to college in California. He didn't want to experience her when summer was over and she had to say goodbye to Alex. Boy, will there be a lot of tears.

The new school he was visiting was a bully free zone. Everyone accepted everyone. No matter race, religion or sexuality which was great. Zayn made a lot of new friends who he got along with just fine and even met a nice boy who treated him right – and he was the only person he actually knew at that school.

Just the thought of him brought a smile to the boy's lips. The guy he was seeing was in his biology class and the two were signed up to become lab partners. It took them both a while to finally figure out where they knew each other from, but it clicked soon enough.
He was charming. Very charming, if Zayn was honest. On the first day he came to that school, the guy was more than happy to help him out. He guided him around school, took him to class, advised him what and what not to eat in the cafeteria. He was just a sweetheart.

Zayn could admit he developed a huge crush on him. But who couldn't? He was handsome and really really attractive. No wonder all the girls and some guys fell for him. Though, it felt as if something clicked between them from the very beginning. They got along well, had a lot in common and were very much interested in each other. Zayn never thought he'd find anyone else after Liam, but turned out he did. And he was happier than ever. Maybe even happier than he felt with the brunette.

They've been dating for three months now and Zayn never expected a relationship to feel that good. He basically had his heart out on his sleeve for him. That's how in love he was. It was- wow. He had no words to describe how good his feelings felt. His boyfriend was everything he ever imagined. He was a gentleman and treated him the way he has always wanted to be treated.

The two had an honest relationship. Zayn confesses about his experience at his old school with his crush and his bullies on the first date, not wanting to be all secretive about his past. He wanted to be honest and make sure that he could trust him. Which he could. His boyfriend even decided to join him at some of his therapy session to which Miss Lee thought it was a great idea.

They haven't done the deed yet. They wanted to go slow at first and not rush into things, especially since this was Zayn's first official relationship. His boyfriend respected that and promised him he would make sure his first relationship was everything he hoped for. Zayn was also glad that the lad turned out to love dogs. Because angel was everything to him and he hated it if his boyfriend disliked dogs.

Speaking of which, Angel had been growing these past months. She wasn't able to fit in his lap anymore but she still tried a lot. To be honest, his dog was nothing but a spoilt little princess. She was still a puppy but a big one. She was whiny and often got very jealous whenever Zayn's man was over and stole him away from her, so every time they would cuddle, she ended up getting between them and playfully growling at the lad while flashing her teeth at him. It was amusing really. They're bond had grown stronger ever since he got her for Christmas. He really loved Angel a lot. And finally, thanks to the help of Miss Lee, his therapist, angel was already perfectly trained to help him whenever he had a terrible nightmare or a bad anxiety attack.
