6."Get your clothes on, little."

"Well, if it's hard for you to tell then don't." I laugh. He chuckles as well. At least he's not in a bad mood.

"No, it's okay. I'm sitting with my mates. They threw a party for me just because someone had to shout out loud in the class about my birthday." he says. I hear laughs on the other end and it makes me laugh as well.

"Sorry? I didn't even know it was your birthday. Anyway, happy birthday." I smile. He hums.

"Thanks. What are you doing?" he asks. Wow, he really cares?

"Still sleeping." I answer, "Wanted to call you before I went to sleep but thought you were angry at me." I admit and wait for his reaction. He scoffs.

"Me and angry at you? Where you got that from?" he asks. I quietly mumble 'I don't know' and turn on my left side.

"Maybe. How can I know if you're angry at me or not when you just run off like that after my question?" I ask. He sighs now.

"No, it's alright. You're right. I wouldn't care about you if you weren't Liam's cousin and it's wrong. But I still want to care about you." he answers. Well that's awkward. He really just said that if I wasn't Liam's cousin then he wouldn't care about me. How embarrassing.

"You can but I'm still not giving up on having some drugs." I say. He groans now like he's pissed. He really should, he deserves to be angry.

"Why? It's like you're killing yourself." he sounds angry as well. I sadly laugh.

"If I could, I'd overdose to die faster and maybe be born again with a new family and have my parents with me rather than now without them." I say with no emotion although I'm dying from sadness. I hear him sigh.

"You just make me do things, sometimes I wonder if you know what my friends tell me about you since all I've done good is for you. Even teachers at school told me I am different today. In a good way." he tells me. I can feel a smile on his lips.

"Good job. But-"

"No butts or I'll spank you so hard that you'll forget that word." he threatens making my eyes go really wide. Now that's something new.

"Don't be so harsh, Jeez." I quietly say. He chuckles. Wait, is he drunk?

"I'm not harsh, just a little bit to make you understand that I'm not joking around." he answers. Well, of course he doesn't joke around. He's still going to terrorize me.

"Can you come over?" I ask out of nowhere. He seems shocked by my question. And so am I. I smile.

"Uh, sure. I'll be-" he seems to be interrupted by someone, "Shut up, we're not together and we're not fucking." he boringly answers someone else, "I'll be there soon, Kayla." he tells me and hangs up. My mouth slightly opens.

I was thinking about him saying those things when I heard a knock at my door. I rush out of the bed and run to the door. Did I lock them? I open the doors and look at him. Well, he's trying to not look lower than my face. I smile.

"Hi. Come in." I say letting him inside. He comes in and takes off his jacket throwing it on my chair.

"You definitely do this on purpose. Get your clothes on, little." he demands pinching my cheek. I smirk.

"Oh, you can't keep your eyes off? Well, okay, I'll just walk like this." I say walking past him. He turns to me.

"Your grandma will kill me. I barely avoided her right now." he whispers. I giggle going back to lock the doors.

"It'll be okay." I say and get to my closet. It's a black closet and I liked it. I take a red shirt and shorts because it's warm here. I turn to Zayn who's watching me. I smile, but he shakes his head.

"Still too naked." he insists on me wearing more and comes closer.

"Well that's your own problem." I answer aiming for the bed, but he takes me over his shoulder and brings back to the closet.

"It's your choice, wear something that shows less of you or I'm gonna dress you up like we're going to some polar island." he threatens and lets me down. I glare at him.

"It's too hot to wear something else!" I insist. He traps me between his arms and looks straight in the eyes. For a second I think he's going to kiss me, but I am wrong. He pulls away.

"I'll open the window for you, princess." he smirks and goes to my window while I scoff.

"Still not wearing anything. Or... Maybe I should just..." I say and approach him. He turns to me and checks me out. Not for long though.

"No, don't... Don't touch me!" he whisper yells. I smirk and touch his cheek. He seriously looks at me while I just turn around and go to my bed. I lie in my bed on my stomach. Hug my pillow.

"Great. And sleep like that, that's good enough." he says sitting next to me. My head. I look up at him. He cups my right cheek with his left hand and smiles. I lean in his hand and smile as well. I roll on my back so my head is pressed against his leg. He looks in my eyes.

"Actually I called you because I wanted to cuddle with you." I smile innocently, "But I know you won't do that." my smile fades and I sit up. He lies on my bed like going to sleep and pulls me next to him. I look at him while he closes his eyes and makes invisible circles on my leg. It kinda turns me on since it's on my upper inner thigh. He opens his eyes and looks in my eyes. I lie next to him and let him hug me tightly.

"You can't ruin your life." he quietly says next to my ear. I just stare at the wall which is in front of me.

"How? By doing drugs?" I ask. He hums. But why is he doing this? What good does it do to him?

"I know I can't stop you from using them, but please... For me... Can you stop being such a stubborn child and save your future?" he almost whispers. I think about it. Can I? I'm not a drug addict, but I still want them even though I've used only two LSD's.

"Can you give me some that doesn't affect my body and doesn't make me addicted? I promise, I won't ask you any more then." I promise turning to him. He looks in my eyes defeated and sighs.

"You're not listening, are you?" he chuckles. I nod my head.

"I am. But only one time?" I make puppy eyes. Something begins to click in his eyes. Looks like he's about to agree.
