march 25, 2015; 2 am calls

zayn had been missing out on countless shows recently. harry and i were in his little bed on the bus with the baby. i dont know how all us fit but we did. our baby is nearly 2 months old. it was nearly 2 am and we were still up.

harry then got a call. "who is it?" i ask. "its zayn" he whispers softly. i get up and grab noah ezra. "come here" he says grabbing my waist and draping a blanket over the baby.

we walked outside. harry answered the call and put it on speaker. "hey zayn" harry said softly. we hear sniffling on the other side. "i cant do it harry" zayn says. "what do you mean?" i question softly.

"i just cant be here anymore. i wanna go home." he says. harry and i look at each other. "i wanna quit the band" zayn says and my vision gets clouded with tears. "okay okay" i said quietly. on both sides of the phone all you could hear was sniffing.

"we'll get you a ticket to go home zayn" harry offers. "let me do this last show  and then i'll go home" he says into the line. "where are you?" i ask.

"in the arena" he says. "at 2 am?" harry questions. "how did you get in?" i ask. "i have my ways" zayn chuckles.

"well when your ready to come onto the bus. come" harry says into the phone. "okay" zayn says quietly. we say bye and hang up. harry takes the baby and heads into the bus.

i stay outside and rub my arms. i walk up to the arena that we are gonna peform in tomorrow well more like today. i find that the back door is parched open a little. i slip in and walk around. i made my way onto the stage and find zayn there.

i walk up quietly and sit down next to him. he leans his head on my shoulder. "you need rest zayn" i whisper. "are you sure you want to perform?" i tell him. he nods his head. "my last one with you guys" he says.

i slip my hand into his. our fingers interlock. "just don't forget any of us" i tell him tears forming in my eyes. "and why would i forget you?" he asks. i shrug.

"remember when i gave you your hoodie back" i told him remembering the time back in 2010. he nods his head smiling. "i was hurt" he confesses. "why?" i ask.

"because i liked you at that time and i never knew why you gave it back" he says lifting his head up to look at me. "but you are happy with perrie right?" i ask him. "of course" he says.

"remember 1D day" he says. i laugh and nod my head. "those 7 hours were so fun" i said. he laughs. "you stink" we said at the same time. "i was so scared when harry threw himself and paul nearly didnt catch him" i said. "i was like my boyfriend nearly died" i laughed out.

"i wanna relive those days" he says throwing his head back smiling. "we made so many memories" i said. "come on lets go back" i said standing up then helped pull zayn up. he wrapped his arm around my waist and i put mine around his waist as well.

"wait" he says. we stop walking. "what happened?" i asked looking into his eyes. "i wanted to do this back in 2010 but never got the chance because im shy" he says. he starts to lean in.

so many thoughts are going through my head. what about perrie? his lips touch mine and i melt. this isnt right. i push him away gently. "zayn this isnt right" i tell him. he stands there realizing what he's done.

"oh my god. did i kiss you?" he asks starting to shake. "hey hey zayn its okay" i said grabbing a hold of his arms. "no no its not i c-cheated on p-perrie" he says shaking his head repeatedly getting tears in his eyes.

"lets get some rest zayn. its late" i said. he stands there shaking. "hey hey zayn its okay. its gonna be okay" i told him. "okay okay zayn breathe" i told him starting to panic.

he couldn't control his breathing. he shakes his head no. he starts to get tears in his eyes. "we'll just forget it didnt happen" i told him. "h-how?" he asks breathing heavily.

"i-i c-cheated on her" he says quietly starting to cry. he stands there holding on to me shaking and crying. i hug him. "breathe for me zayn" i tell him quietly. i pull away slightly and look into his eyes.

"in" i tell him. he does it. "and out" i tell him again and he does. i smile seeing he starts to calm down. "in,,, and out" he starts to calm down. he stops shaking.

"lets get rest zayn okay" i tell him quietly. he nods his head. i wrap my arm around his waist and he does the same to me. we head out and back into the bus.
