~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Niall was getting ready to fall asleep when he heard crying. He got up and crawled out of his makeshift tent and looked down the alley, finding a little boy curled up against the wall. The sun has just set and Niall knows that it won't be safe for the little boy. He walks up to him slowly, making sure he doesn't startle the crying boy.

"Hey buddy, are you lost?" Niall asks softly.

The little boy startled a little and looks up at Niall, wiping his eyes and nodding.

"I don't know how to read but I know this is where my home is." The little boy mumbles, pointing at a small bracelet wrapped around his wrist.

Niall nods and crouches in front of the boy.

"I'm Niall, what's your name?"
"Amir"
"That's a beautiful name Amir, how old are you?"

Amir sniffles and raises four fingers, showing how old he is.

"Wow, such a big boy. Four whole years? You want to know how old I am? I'm only two."

Amir giggles and shakes his head, "you not two, you're too big like uncle Zayn. Are you going to help me find him?"

Amir raises his hand to show Niall the small silver piece on his bracelet that does in fact have an address engraved into it. Niall takes his hand gently and mentally notes where the house is, it's only a few blocks away from where they are now.

Niall nods quickly, "of course Amir, were you with uncle Zayn when you got lost? Do you want to wait for him a bit here in case he's looking for you?"

Amir shakes his head and his eyes start watering again, "please take me home mister Niall, I have to be there before mama comes to pick me up."

Niall takes a deep breath and nods again, glancing over to his tent, knowing that the only important thing in there is his ID.

"okay but I just have to grab a few things from, uhh... I just have to grab a few things and we'll be on our way." Niall stutters his way through the sentence, not wanting the kid to know that he lives in the street.

Niall stands up and offers his hand to Amir, which the little boy scrambles up quickly to take, smiling up at Niall and Niall smiling back. They make their way to Niall tent and Niall quickly leans in to grab his empty wallet, save for his ID, and leave the alley.

"What do you mean you can't find him?" Doniya asks, trying to calm herself down.

Zayn cringes, holding the phone to his ear, "we were just in the city together and I got distracted for literally a second and when I turned back around I couldn't find him. I called the rest of the boys and we're all looking for him. Don't worry Don, I'm sure he's safe."

Zayn hears his sister take in a shaky breath and he knows he really messed up this time. He lost his freaking nephew for God's sake how much worse can it get?

"Is there anybody at your house?"

Zayn's confused with the question, "no why would anybody be there?"

"Because, you idiot, your address is on Amir's bracelet and maybe someone will help him get there? Someone needs to be home Zayn, in case he shows up there."

Doniya is trying her best to stay calm because she knows if she doesn't she'll lose it. So she takes deep breaths and asks zayn where he last saw him while getting in her car and starting to search for her son.
