Chapter Seven:

Zayn POV-

It took over thirty minutes to get Niall to stop crying. I kept whispering in his ear, stroking his hair and telling him that Liam wouldn't touch him anymore.

"I promise that he won't touch you anymore Niall, you're mine." I told him, hugging him tightly against my body. He was still shaking slightly, arms gripping tight around my neck and not letting go.

"I-I-I was s-scared. I di-di-didn't kno-ow what t-to d-do." He hiccuped, sniffling.

I just held him tighter.

------------------------------------

It was the next day, overcast with a light drizzle of rain, perfectly reflecting my mood.

I stopped my Jeep in front of Niall's house, smiling a little whenever I spotted Niall running out of his house and into my Jeep.

"Hi Zaynie!" He chirped, smiling brightly at me. I smiled back at him, grabbing his hand and holding it in mine while I drove off to the school. I wasn't prepared to see Liam today, my anger still raging towards him. If I saw him alone, then I would kill him. Or at least beat his sorry ass into next month. He deserved it for trying to take advantage of my beautiful Niall.

"I want to go see Louis today, I haven't seen him in days!" Niall exclaimed, breaking me out of my dark thoughts. Louis?

"Who's Louis?" I asked him, obvious jealousy in my voice.

"Louis is my friend! I met him on the first day of school. He's also the drama teacher, though he's only a few years older than us." Niall continued to smile at me.

I gripped the steering wheel tightly, what if this Louis tried something? What kind of teacher is friends with the students? Especially one as innocent as Niall?

"I don't think you should see him Niall, he might be like Liam."

Niall pouted, "He isn't like Liam! He's really nice and I like him a lot!"

I was getting angry, he liked him a lot?

"What do you mean you like him, Niall?" I asked him through clenched teeth.

Niall frowned at me, not understanding my sudden mood change. "He's really nice and funny. He was my first friend at school. Why can't I see him Zayn?" He asked.

I was mad, partly because Niall wanted to go see another man and that he didn't call me Zaynie like usual.

I pulled up into the school, parking and hopping out of my vehicle. "Fine! You can go see your precious Louis, but don't come to me when he hurts you!" I walked away from him, ignoring his yells for me to come back. I was just too angry and jealous, did he want Louis?
