Break Up With Your Boyfriend, I'm Bored [ziall/ziam]

Chapter 7:

Everything had happened so quickly and naturally that Niall didn't even realise how much further than expected it had gotten.

"I—I'm a virgin," Niall spilled.

"What?" Zayn leaned back, blinking at him a few times.

Niall coughed nervously. Embarrassment was all over his face. "I've never—done anything like this before." He paused to take in a breath of air. "Like ever."

Zayn was sitting on his knees now. "Uh," he started, confused eyes running over Niall's naked torso before he stopped at his face, "You're kidding right?"

Niall looked away ashamed. This had always been a fear of his. He just didn't think Zayn would actually react that way. 

"Wait—you're being serious right now?" Zayn looked like he couldn't believe what he had just heard. His eyes became wide as realisation hit him. "Shit, I'm sorry, Niall. I didn't know."

Niall hid his face behind his hands. God, he felt green as hell. Quickly, he shoke his head behind his hands, signaling Zayn that everything that had happened was okay. 

Zayn cleared his throat as he now sat on the edge of the sofa. "I didn't want to force you to do anything—"

"No, no, no!" Niall interrupted him, sitting up now too, his arms hugging his knees in a way to hide his flushed chest. "You didn't force me at all." This whole situation was completely new and a whole new type of awkward. Wasn't all of this giving Zayn even more reasons to stay with Liam? He surely wasn't a virgin. 

Suddenly, guilt was rushing over him, he could barely breathe. Quickly grabbing his tanktop from the floor, he stood up. "I need to go," he said flatly.

"What—no!" Zayn reached for his arm, but didn't manage to get a hold of him.

With quick steps, Niall jogged to the door, leaving Zayn behind.

What was is it with them and leaving each other?

****

Why he had left that day had two answers.

1—the guilt of betraying Liam in this way was almost eating Niall up alive. The fact that he had come there to talk about Liam and ended up kissing Zayn was making Niall feel like he had no control around him. 

And 2—the fact that Niall was innocent in every single way, made him so incredibly insecure that he couldn't possibly imagine looking Zayn in the eye ever again.

Unfortunately, however, he didn't have much of a choice. Today—only a day later after the incident— the band would film the music video for their first single from their upcoming album. As they were still working on the full album, it was decided that it would be time to publish a video to keep the fans happy. The song they would be filming a video for was Live While We're Young; which was basically a song about having the summer of your life and maybe or maybe not getting laid. Basically, something Niall had no idea about. 

Nevertheless, the song was still fun and actually very catchy, if Niall could say so himself. Upon arriving there he could see Harry and Liam already sitting on two big logs right in the middle of the location. The location itself was quite big with trees and a lake close by. Niall was really looking foward to this video shoot, it would help him get his mind off the fact that Zayn and him had kissed yet again. And Niall had no explanation as for why Zayn had done that. 

"Hey guys," he greeted the two as he sat down next to them and they both gave him a grin. Harry hugged him softly. 

"How are you doing?" Harry was eyeing him carefully and Niall really wanted to tell him what was going on. But Liam was right there and the guilt was forming in his stomach again.
