Till Life Do Us Part (A Zauren Love Story)

Part Fifty-Nine: Brothers' Fight

NO ONES'S POV:

The house was so quite, there wasn't any voice inside or any sign for a movement. Liam would think that Lauren is not there if he hadn't seen her heels thrown on the living's room floor.

"Lauren?" he called out in a low voice as he walked to the living room and turned the lights on. She wasn't there, neither in the kitchen nor in the dinning room. He searched everywhere downstairs but he didn't find her. He headed upstairs immediately and went to her room, knocking the door slightly then opening it without waiting for her answer.

He entered the room to be hit with a cloud of smoke that caused him to cough. He searched for the lights buttons blindly with his hand and turned them on to see Lauren laying on the bed with a cigarette in her hand and an ashtray on the nightstand next to her, filled with cigarettes.

"Lauren? What are you doing?" he asked in shock as he looked at her. She looked awful, her hair was a mess and her makeup was running down her face. She was only in her bra; the dress was lowered to her waist and covering only the bottom part of her body.

"Heeey Liiii !" she slurred, opening her arms widely for a hug after seeing him.

"What are you doing? Since when you smoke?" he asked in anger as he headed to the balcony door to open it.

"Long time ago, I stopped smoking for awhile because he told me to." She informed as he went to the windows and opened them as well to get rid of the awful smell.

"Who's he?" he asked, walking to her and sitting on the edge of the bed next to her.

"He, him, your friend." She answered with a raised eyebrow as he should be knowing the answer.

"Harry?" he asked again and she rolled her eyes.

"Noooo Liam, of course not Harry." She laughed at his stupidity before starting to explain, "I mean him, Zayn."

"Zayn?" Liam narrowed his eyebrows and waited for her to say more.

"Yeah, Zayn. The one who destroyed my whole life and acted like he did nothing." She said with a laugh and took another long drag from her cigarette.

"Give me this sweetie." Liam took the cigarette from her hand and crushed it on the ashtray.

"Nooo." She protested in frustration, "Why did you do this? I want to smoke." She pouted childishly.

"What did Zayn do to you?" he asked again, ignoring her plead.

She let out another laugh before starting to talk, "The right question is what he didn't do to me." She breathed deeply and continued, "That boy has destroyed my whole life, my whole new life, the life that I though it's going to be better than the old one. It turned out that I was wrong, it's much worse than the first one, because of him of course."

"What happened Lauren?"  He asked softly, encouraging her to say more.

"What happened is simple, he gave me a lot of promises and I was dump enough to believe all of them. It was all lies, lies and nothing more." She said in pain with the same smile she carried since she started talking, "I really thought he was going to leave Perrie for me, he made me believe that he was going to leave Perrie for me. But of course he didn't, he would never do this, he was just lying, he can never leave her. I was just a replacement, Liam. A cheap and a worthless replacement." She shook her head in disgust and continued, "He just wanted someone to stay with until his girlfriend comes back from her tour, and of course I was there for him, with opened arms and a wide smile, waiting for him, waiting to be played with, waiting to be thrown away after he gets bored from me." Lauren explained anxiously, her voice shaking as she spoke. She was drunk and hurt, but she was still able to form full sentences as she revealed the secret to Liam.
