Zayn's POV: 

Zayn held his cellphone contemplating on whether or not he should check his Twitter feed that very moment knowing that he had just left the band. He was scared to see the reaction from directioners with his own eyes, however for some reason he had a gut feeling that he should check his Twitter mentions. 

Before tapping on the Twitter app he took a deep breath trying to muster up courage, when he felt like he had enough courage he opened the Twitter app to read the tweets on his timeline, the fact that his Twitter timeline was filled with nothing but people making a huge deal out of him leaving the band was of no surprise to him. 

When he had enough of seeing his timeline he clicked on the Twitter mentions icon to read his replies and of course it contained several tweets from directioners, some replies were good while others were the complete  opposite, Zayn kept scrolling through his mentions wondering if he'd find an interesting reply fortunately for him he eventually found a verified Twitter user with the username "@LaurenJauregui" defending him from all the backlash he received for making the most difficult decision in his life. 

Lauren Jauregui... Wow that's a really nice name, Zayn thought to himself as he proceeded to click on her username in order to view her Twitter profile 

The first thing zayn did when he clicked Lauren's profile was tap on her Twitter icon because he needed a closer look at her profile picture, his eyes widened a bit when the photo expanded 

"Damn she's really pretty" Zayn thought to himself as he admired the black haired girl's beauty  

Zayn immediately pressed Lauren's follow button in order to be able to send her a direct message, he intended on sending a direct message to her thank her for standing up for him in such a dark time 

Before He decided to send Lauren a direct message he scrolled down her profile reading her most recent tweets, he could literally feel the sassiness oozing through his phone screen just by reading Lauren's tweets, when zayn was done reading Lauren's tweets he scrolled back up then clicked on the direct message box proceeding to type out a message 

Zayn: Hey I just saw your tweet in regards to me leaving the band & I'd like to thank you for sticking up for me it means a lot also I just got done reading some of your tweets and they're quite funny you don't hold back at all when dealing with haters do you? 😂

Lauren's POV: 

Within a few minutes Lauren finally finished her breakfast, she picked up her plate and tea cup off the dinning table making her way over to the sink to wash them when she was done washing the utensils she dried them then returned them to where they are usually kept. After which she exited the kitchen heading into the living room making her way over to the couch, lowering herself to take a seat on it pulling her phone out of her pocket 

Once her phone was in her hands she unlocked it and tapped on the Twitter app since she wasn't upset anymore and she wanted to see what she had missed while she had exited the app. This time she didn't check her mentions since she wasn't in the mood to read stupid replies from the fan base she despises the most and get upset all over again so Instead she tapped on the message icon to check her dms 

Lauren's dms were filled with nothing but her fans congratulating her and telling her that her "man" finally acknowledged her existence which left her in confusion 

"The fuck are they even talking about" Lauren cursed in confusion while scrolling through each message 

Suddenly her eyes widened followed by a gasp leaving her mouth when she saw a Twitter user with the same profile picture as Zayn along with Zayn in their display name had sent her a direct message 

"Wait could it be... Nah it must be one of my fans playing games with me" Lauren said lowly trying not to freak out 

She tapped on the Twitter user's profile pic in order to pull up their profile to see their full username to ensure it was the "real" Zayn Malik that had messaged her, Lauren's jaws dropped along with her phone when she found out that the real Zayn did in fact messaged her, before she decided to pick up her phone off the mat she stood up off the sofa walking around the room aimlessly while hyperventilating. when she felt as if she had calmed down she walked back over to the sofa picking up her phone off the mat then sat down again 

Before she decided to respond to Zayn's dm she typed out a tweet to let her feelings out 

@LaurenJauregui

IS THIS REAL LIFE 

@LaurenJauregui

I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS 

@LaurenJauregui

Happy isn't the word 

When Lauren tweeted what she was feeling at the moment she immediately tapped the message box ignoring all of the replies under the tweets since she knew directioners would still be on her page lurking 

Before Lauren decided to reply to Zayn's direct message she took a deep breath trying to muster up courage, eventually she found the courage which resulted in her finally tapping on Zayn's message opening it up, while Lauren was typing her reply her hands began to shake

Lauren: Heyy 😊 sorry for the late reply I was busy and no problem I couldn't just sit there and watch people call you names without saying anything

Lauren: And really? You find my tweets funny? 🙈

Zayn: Yeah I do, especially your comebacks 😂

Lauren: Awwwwww I'm glad my tweets were able to make you laugh 

Zayn: Yeah 😄 Well I'll text you later I'm going to be busy now

Lauren: ugh okay :( 

Zayn: why the sad face? I said I was going to text you later which means this won't be the last time you'll hear from me :/

Lauren: I know that... But we just started texting a few minutes ago yet you're going to be busy 

Zayn: 😂😂😂 awwwwww you're so cute but I really have to go so ttyl okay? 😊
