 Zayns POV:

    "Harry it's Louis!" I call out quickly, for I fear for Lou's safety.

   "Oh really?" He says.

   "Yes of course why would I lie?"

   "Why would anyone?"

   "Well I'm not you."

   "You said that you and him weren't in a relationship."

   "We aren't."

   "I find that hard to believe."

   "Well then keep trying because it's  true."

   "You were all over each other just a second ago."

   "We were just messing around."

Louis interrupts.

   "Harry you don't control him!"

   "Yes I do."

   "You're not even dating."

   "We are now."

He looks at me as if daring me to say something. I keep my mouth closed. Well, until I blurt out, "Were neighbors!" trying to lead the conversation elsewhere.

Harry did a double take.

"We're what?" He asks.
 
"Neighbors hehe" I say awkwardly.

"So.... You lied to me?"

"No I just withheld information."

"Same thing!"

"Is not!"

"Is too!"

Louis interrupts.

"What are you four?" He yells.

"He-"
"He-"

We say at the same time before Louis interrupts.

"Stop it both of you!" He yells.
"WHO. CARES. WHO?" He asks.

"I didn't want to tell you because I didn't want you to know." I say reluctantly.

"Why?!" He asks.

"Because you always hit me. Home is the only place I feel only slightly safe."

"Safe?"

"Yea."

"Safe." He mumbles.

"So your scared of me." He says.

"Well yea. People don't like being beat up."

"Okay."

And with that he walked away. All of the over six feet of him. Away from me. Away from his biggest problem that he didn't know how to solve at the moment.
