Zayn Malik

"Can I borrow her for a minute?"

I found them sitting on the couch, Thank God they weren't close to each other, otherwise I would have lost my shit before talking. They were just sitting in an awkward silence, and then I entered the room.

Even more awkward!

"Sure" liam smiles at me and then at Alex.

"Um" she gets up and walks towards me with confusion written all over her face.

"Can we uh um go outside?" I ask her, she looks hesitant at first, but then she gives me that smile which keeps my heart out of control and nods, walking out.

I just give a small smile at Liam and follow Alex.

"So are you gonna say something Zayn? We've just been walking in silence. You haven't spoken for 10 minutes!" She stops and looks at me.

"Uh yeah!" I rub the back of my neck. Damnit!! Why did I even come here.

Come on Zayn! You can do it. Just tell her how you feel about her.

I can do this. I got it!

No regrets after this!

I can do this.

Breath in. Breath out.

"Angel" I close my eyes and then open them looking at the most beautiful girl in front of me. She just waits for me to continue.

"I wanna say I'm sorry for everything I caused in this house which made you sad or troubled."

Good start. Keep going!

"I... I um.-"

"Zayn! There's nothing to be sorry for. In fact thank you so much for everything you've ever done for me. No one just allows a stranger to stay in their house and treats them so well. No matter how much I thank you it would never be enough. Especially for my birthday! I felt like it was a dream. That day was unreal, thank you do much for making me this happy" she holds my hands. "I mean it Zayn" she looks into my eyes.

"There's no need to thank me. I'll do anything to see that smile on your face" I smile and tears start to form in her eyes.

"I need to get this out of me or I will regret this for the rest of my life. I can't let you go without trying. I just can't let you go" I look down.

"Zayn?-" I put my finger on her lips shutting her off. While she stares at me with a frown.

You can do this!

"I like you." I start "I like you a lot. Ever since I saw you, I still remember you looked like a real Angel sleeping on my couch, but I was scared, scared to talk to you, scared to open up, because I end up loosing everyone, like always, I didn't want to loose you too, I just didn't want to get close to you and then end up hurting myself when you leave. This is the reason I used to act so distant from you. This is the reason I'm distant from everyone, I hate losing people I love and I love yo-" Tears start to form in my eyes when I see a year drop fall from hers.

"I just... Please don't cry" I rub her tears as they start to flow.

"I know you feel the same way. I can feel it and I hope you feel this too" I take her hand and place it on my chest.

"Zayn-" I cut her off.

"Please let me finish... Just... Please" I look at her wiping my tear.

"Don't leave. I want you to b-be mine.. I want you to be here... W-with me, not-"
