I'll Be Here for Forever || z.m.

Chapter Four

*Zayns P.O.V.*

I woke up in my bed to a someone knocking on the door. It was still a bit dark out. I sat up, threw a shirt on, and slowly made my way to the door. I had my own room, since Louis and Harry shared one, then Liam and Niall, so I was on my own. I opened the door. There was Kendall, wearing the same sweatshirt she was last night, but still looking beautiful as ever.

She practically fell into my arms. She was crying, sobbing really.

"What's wrong?" I asked, my arms wrapped around her.

She didn't answer, she just continued to cry into my shoulder. I picked her up, and sat her on the couch, holding her in my lap like a baby. No, she isn't a baby, not even close, but that's just how I was holding her. She cried into my shoulder for a while, not saying anything.I stroked her hair and held her close.

"Kendall," I finally said.

"What?"

"What's wrong?"

She pulled away and looked at me. Her blue eyes were bloodshot and she was sniffling. "I'm sick." Was all that she said.

"What do you mean 'sick'?" I asked.

Kendall said somthing to me, but it was muffled.

"Hmm?"

"Cancer,"

I felt sick. No, Kendall was too good to have cancer. She was perfect, and beautiful, and the nicest and purest person I knew. This couldn't happen to her.

"Shhh, it's going to be okay," I whispered in her ear. "It will all be alright."

*Still Zayn's P.O.V.*

We stayed like that for the next couple hours. She fell asleep in my arms, and I eventually dozed off. I was woken by Harry, who looked slightly surprised to see us cuddled up to eachother.

"Zayn," He whispered.

"Hmmm?"

"Wake up, it's nearly one o'clock in the afternoon!"

"Mmhmm.." Was my only response, never wanting to let go of Kendall.

"What?" Kendall said sleepily.

"Get up, we're going to the hotel's restaurant for lunch!" Harry said, offering a hand.

Kendall pulled herself up, thanked him, and told Haz we'd be right down. He nodded, and went out the door, turning around before he shut it behind him and gave us the 'I'm watching you' eyes.

"Zayn, don't tell them about... what I told you... I haven't told anyone yet, not even my parents and they're all the way back in London and I don't want Lou to call them and have them fly out here and-"

I cut her off by kissing her softly on the lips. "I won't say a word."

"Thank you," Ken said, obviously. relieved.

"But... do you know what's going to happen?" I asked, looking up at her.

"No idea." She shook her head. "But I am so scared, Zayn."

Tears began to fall from her eyes once again. I pulled her into my arms once again. "It's okay, it's okay."

"Please don't ever leave me," She whimpered.

"No matter what, I'll be here for forever."
