Chapter 29~ Zayn

The boys and I are on the plane, almost back to London. I was supposed to be excited, overjoyed, but I'm not. I was supposed to see Kali at the airport, give her the biggest kiss, tell her how much I missed and love her but I have nothing. Because of my drunken mistake I lost her. The worst part isn't that I lost her, but that I betrayed her and her trust. 

Niall shakes my shoulder, "Mate, we're landing soon." He gives me a sympathetic smile and I roll my eyes, I don't want fucking sympathy. Liam and Niall know about my mistake. I think it was after I started trashing our room and yelling that they figured it out. "It'll be alright", he pats my shoulder.

No, it won't be but I obviously can't shoot him down like that so I just say, "Thanks Niall, I know." It'll only be alright because Liam still has Anna and Niall has Louis, yes they finally told us. Matter of fact the only reason Louis won't kill me on sight is because Niall wont let him. Pretty sure Louis would still kill me in the crowded airport if NIall wasn't there.

"Alright, let's do this", Niall stands up. I hadn't even realized the plane landed.  

I stand up and follow Niall and Liam off the plane. We wait to grab our luggage when there's a tap on my shoulder. I quickly turn around, half hoping it to be Kali but, I'm met with a girl who looks about 16. "Hi!", she smiles enthusiastically. She's clutching a pad of paper and a marker to her chest, "Wow!"

"Hi, may I help you?", I may be in a bad mood but I'm not rude. 

"Umm hi...you're Zayn Malik right?"

"That's what my passport says", I joke and she laughs. "Did you need something?"

"OH!", she nods, "I was wondering if you could sign this. I know you're not super famous but I heard your bands song on the radio and I know you'll make it big."

"Wow, yeah I can totally sign this for you. What's your name?", I take the marker and paper from her. 

"It's Katie! K-A-T-I-E", her smile is beaming and I can't help but genuinely smile. Niall and Liam have wondered off already. I hand her back her things, "THANK YOU SO MUCH!" She throws her arms around me in a hug and I laugh and hug her back.

She let's go and I smile at her, "It was lovely meeting you, it really was but I've got to catch my ride"

Says nods and says goodbye but shouts something that makes me freeze in my tracks, "Tell your girlfriend I think she's amazing!"

I turn around to call back, "Okay!", and quickly continue walking my way to my friends. Girlfriend, not anymore cuz i screwed up.  I trudge quietly along looking for any sign of the boys when I hear a high pitched squeal of excitement. I follow the sound and know that Liam and Anna are reunited. When I reach them Anna is already in Liam's arms, showing way too much pda for me, and Niall and Louis are smiling like fools at each other. I can't help but feel envious of them

When I'm finally by the group I'm immediately met with Anna's sympathetic eyes and Louis' anger filled eyes. I look away from Louis and back to Anna who is still at Liam's side. "Hi Anna."

She smiles again, "Hi Zayn." I didn't expect nothing more so when she wraps her arms around me in a hug I'm surprised but hug her back. "She'll come through. You fucked up but I know you didn't mean it", she whispers to me before letting go. She places her self at Liam's side again and links fingers. I fucking miss Kali. 

"So...who's driving?", Niall adjust his back pack as he asks. 

Louis' whole body language changes as he links fingers with Niall. "I'm driving you home, then we're going back to my place."

Niall's face lights up, "I like that idea. See you all later." They walk off and I'm left with Liam and Anna.

"Ummm...", right now I don't exactly know what to say but Anna answers some questions floating in my mind. 

"I'm just taking you two home right now. Her stuff is still in your room, she hasn't had time to pick it up yet...though it's only been a day." Pick her stuff up? We haven't even talked about this!

"C'mon, people are getting angry at us for standing here", Liam mentions and it's only then I remember that we're still in the airport. 

The drive back to the flat was torturous and long. I don't think I can stand to look at Kali's things still in my room. I don't want a reminder of her, I want her. Her blonde hair, the way any lipstick looked good on her, the way she looked in my shirts, my leather jacket...the way she used to look at me with adoration...never again. 

"Mate", Liam's voice breaks my thoughts. I realized I was staring at a picture of Kali, her hair pulled back in a pony tail, red lipstick still stained her lips, and she was laughing. It was too good of a picture not to have. 

"Shut up", I grumble and get out of the car, after it's stopped. Grabbing my suitcase and back pack from the back seat I head straight to the flat. Quickly unlocking the door I head upstairs and to my room. I don't want to see anyone and I don't want to talk to anyone. 

As soon as I'm in my room I slam my door shut and turn the light on, with my free hand. Right away I see the pile of Kali's clothes in the corner, by my hamper. I drop my things to the floor and fall to my knees with them. I screwed up so badly. '"I'm so sorry", I cry in to my hands. 

A knock at my door makes me jump and I quickly wipe my eyes. "Zayn? It's Anna...I'm going home now but before I forget- god I don't want to do this through the door...or at all! Please just open up."

I stand up and wipe my eyes once more while making my way to the door. Opening the door reveals a sad looking Anna, "What is it?"

She doesn't say anything; she just takes a deep breath and lifts her hand, palm up. It takes me less than a minute before I register what lies on her palm. "Zayn-", she tries to talk.

"Are you kidding me?!", I don't mean to yell at her but she's there. "NO! She- FUCK", I snatch Kali's bracelet from Anna's hand and slam the door in her face. Kali hasn't even given me a chance and she's already returning her bracelet. I fall against the door and to the ground. I clutch the one thing I thought she might keep to my chest and cry. I don't know how I'm going to fix this. 

Wellll it's been way too long since I've updated but I hope to update sooner than a month from now...but I will be trying to end this soon. I have other ideas and I just want ta little writers break. Even though I haven't updated I've still been brainstorming on how this is going to go so...we'll seewhere this takes us
