Megan's POV

I laid on the edge of my bed, half of my body falling off so that all the blood rushed to my head. My iPod was plugged into the dock, and was currently blasting Maroon 5's "This Love". I hummed along, tapping my fingers against my stomach. I was contemplating exactly what I was going to tell my best friend. I knew Danielle would be here any minute and I still had no clue how many details I was going to give her. I mean... I always tell Danielle everything, but I'm just not sure if Zayn's okay with other people knowing. I'd think after the whole bathroom fiasco he'd be okay with it, but then again it's Zayn, and sometimes I can never tell what the kid's truly thinking.

A sudden knock on the door jumbled my train of thought, and scared me quite a bit which caused me to fall off of my bed, landing with a loud thud onto the floor. "GOD DAMMIT!" I shouted, rubbing the top of my now throbbing head and stood up, walking to my door. I ripped it open, sort of annoyed, and saw Danielle - ice cream and tissues in hand - with a facial expression that led me to believe that she was seriously suppressing laughter. I growled a bit, but then giggled at myself.

"Bitch," I muttered and then pulled her into a hug. She laughed and hugged me back.

"Love you too," she said and then kissed my cheek softly. She walked around me into my room and I closed the door behind her. We both plopped down onto my bed, and without anything said she opened the tub of double chocolate chocolate chip ice cream, handing me a spoon. I took it gratefully and started shoveling the chocolatey goodness into my mouth. I was practically moaning because it tasted so good.

"So..." she started, looking at me with her signature sassy-eyebrow-raising look. I swallowed the glop of ice cream that had currently been in my mouth and then looked down.

"What I'm about to tell you... You've gotta spit-swear not to tell anyone else, ever."

She rolled her eyes, and spit onto her hand, as did I, and then we shook hands. "I promise," she mumbled, looking at me with anticipation.

"Well... Okay so it all started the day the new Justin Bieber music video came out..."

Zayn's POV

It was Tuesday morning, and I wanted nothing more than to just drive home and watch Superbad while snuggled up on the couch with my dog, Boris, eating flaming hot Cheetos all day. I wanted to hide and never show my face in public again. I was so ashamed of myself, and having to face everyone at school today would be horrendous. By now everyone knew that Perrie'd dumped me. I just wasn't sure if everyone was aware of the fact that I'd slept with my best friend in a vain attempt to forget her.

Megan. Oh god, Megan. She was without a doubt my best friend. I can be myself whenever I'm with her, and I know she gets me and would never judge me. She's the only person I'm sure loves me for me. Of course I love her - I love her more than anything in this world - but I just don't think I love her that way.. And she's not Perrie. I know it's crazy, because she dumped me, and literally broke my heart to pieces, but I'm still madly in love with the bitch. She's everything I've ever wanted and so much more. We had one of those passionate relationships that only come once in life time... At least that's how I felt about us. Perrie on the other hand was "bored".

I cringed, thinking about how she'd blatantly told me that our relationship was boring her and how it was time for her to move on as I walked to my locker. I started spinning my lock, putting in the combo. I glanced at the bathroom I'd found Megan sobbing in yesterday, and shook my head. She'd thought I was embarrassed to have slept with her. It was completely mental. Why would anyone be embarrassed to have sex with someone as gorgeous and stunning as her? Even though she was my best friend, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't completely and totally attracted to her. She had such a slender body, with long legs, flowing auburn hair, piercing green eyes, and her lips... They were just mesmerizing.
