A/N: I'm going to skip the whole hospital fluff since that's not my focus. Also, this chapter is based off true events.

-5 days later-

Liam's POV

It's been five days since the incident and I'm feeling grand. It's November 16, the day before the release of our new album Four. We are supposed to be flying out to Orlando later today to promote it, and I'm excited to perform our new songs on live TV!

When it came time to leave, Zayn had come down with something and wasn't feeling well, so told us to go without him and that he'd join us as soon as possible. I was going to miss him for the time he wouldn't be there but I promised him I would sing his solos for him. He thanked me and we were off.

-the next day-

November 17, 2014 - the release date of our new album.

We got onto the speedboat and arrived at the source of the screams. Taking a seat, the interviewer began talking.

"Where's Zayn?"

"Oh he's a bit sick in his tummy," I replied.

"Is the illness drug related?"

What the hell? How could he assume such a thing? What an ass.

"Uh no, he's just got a little stomach bug, that's all, he just needs a little rest, he's fine," I glared at him; all four of us did and if looks could kill, that man would be lying on the ground more than dead.

We performed all our songs and thanked the fans for being there for us this whole time and coming out to see us. Afterwards, we decided to surprise some of them on the Harry Potter ride.

-the next day-

Zayn arrived, finally. I've missed him so much. I personally went to the airport to pick him up alone, after all, we needed some time to talk things out.

"Hey Zee!"

"Li!" He said as his face lit up.

I opened my arms wide open and initiated a bear hug. We stayed like this for a while, me not wanting to let go of him; him not wanting to let go of me; it felt so right. I've missed this.

"Hop in, we've got a private show later," I told him as I opened the passenger seat door for him.

"So how are you feeling?" I said, eyes on the road.

"Much better....but I've missed you," he said after a long pause.

"I've missed you too aha," I said never taking my eyes off the road.

He leaned over the seat compartment and kissed me on the cheek and I felt my face burn up.

"Hey Zee? Can I tell you something?"

"Sure," he shifted in his seat uncomfortably.

"I-I love you."

"I love you more."

"I want you."

"I want you too."

"So where do we go from here?"

"Well, we'll just take it slow for now, I don't want to rush into anything."

"Okay."

"Okay."

I giggled and leaned over to kiss him at a stop sign.

It was almost time to go on stage for the private show and Zayn was warming up his vocal chords; he sang like an angel, not to mention he looked like one too.

We got on stage and performed 'Night Changes' outdoors to a couple hundred fans. When we had finished Zayn was freezing, since the idiot only wore a pullover on a cold night, so I walked over to him and put my arm around him, rubbing his arm opposite of to create friction.

"I'll keep you warm, Zaynie."

I knew management was going to kill me for saying that into the mic, but I didn't care, I loved dropping hints of ziam to our fans who shipped us.

We returned to the hotel, it was a great stay we've had in Orlando, but it was time for us to head to LA. The five of us packed all of our bags and got ready to depart.

Next stop, the city of angels! Which in my opinion, should be renamed "City of Zayngels" because Zayn is pretty much an angel himself, but hey, I'm just sayin'

Short-ish chapter to hold you guys over to the next chapter, which I hope will be longer! I'm trying to update more frequently so bear with me (:
