Addicted To You

Chapter 10

Maisie's POV

I met Zayn back at their house. He got out ok and none of the photographers saw him. I think sometimes for Zayn it's really annoying to be famous, especially because he is so mysterious and likes to keep his personal life private.

Louis picked him up from the hospital. At least I got my stitches sorted out before all of the drama. I walked into the house. Zayn greeted me. I hugged him instantly.

Zayn's POV

"You got back alright then?" Maisie asked as she embraced me into a huge hug.

"Yeah, fine. Nobody noticed me or anything so, yeah," I replied.

"Listen, I've, like, been thinking. I don't think I actually thanked you for this," she said looking at the floor as she released me.

"For what?" I asked, having no clue what she was going on about.

"For this, in general. I would of never thought that I would of ever been hanging out with the One Direction. Think about it though, if you hadn't of noticed me and just let me walk off that stage, never to be seen again, I wouldn't even be here with you,"

"But you are," I smiled. "And you're making my life so much brighter,"

"Just... Thank you, Zayn,"

"It's okay, okay?" I reassured her. She smiled and bit her lip in the cute way she does. She was so beautiful and I was so in love with her.

"I'm just going to pop out for a bit, I'll be back in 10 minutes," I said, I needed ten minutes just to think about what to do and how to tell her how much I really did like her.

I only walked to the nearest shop to get a drink but that was as far as I needed to go to think. My mind was racing. I was mainly thinking about Niall and what he would have to say if he found out that I liked her so much. Him and Maisie seemed to be getting pretty close. Maybe it would be better to not tell him. I walked back to the house, still thinking.

When I walked in Niall was talking to Maisie in the kitchen. I didn't just walk in because that would've been rude. I went in to the living room and sat down. I turned the TV on, the news was on. And guess what, I was on it. The headline was 'Boyband star, Zayn Malik, on hospital roof, saved by mystery girl'. She was right. I'm in the headlines. I was sitting on the edge of the sofa, listening carefully to what they were saying.

"Zayn! Turn the TV on!" I heard Maisie shout.

"Already have," I shouted back. That's probably what her and Niall were doing in the kitchen. She came in moments later with Niall. I was worried about what was going to happen next. I think him and her may of had something going on.

He said nothing and neither did she for a while. Maisie sat down next to me, her eyes also glued to the TV.

"I knew this was going to happen," Maisie said, still staring at the TV. I just replied with a 'mmhm'. "No Zayn don't just say 'mhmm', this is serious," she sternly said. The cameras were showing my face when I heard Niall say 'idiot' under his breath.

"Excuse me?" I said to him.

"You heard me," he paused and then continued, "Zayn, why have you turned into such an idiot lately. No matter what you do, you hurt yourself or someone around you. I have no idea what's going on in your head, but fix it," Niall said and then just walked away as if he hadn't even said anything at all.
