It's been five years since the year of hell, as Zayn would call it. Five years since Zayn and Liam were forced to live a year without each other, five years since Zayn was diagnosed with Paranoid Schizophrenia and five years of Liam trying to recover from the mental and emotional abuse of being held hostage for ten months. You'd believe that after five years they'd be able to live a normal life, with Zayn receiving treatment and Liam having weekly sessions with a therapist, that they would be able to be happy and worry free as they wish they could be. Sadly, what they went through wasn't something someone can get over as quickly as one getting over the fact that they didn't get the last slice of pizza or that they no longer have ice cream in the freezer. No, things were much harder for them both than they expected it to be, but together they'll get through it. Except, neither one will admit to their significant other that they aren't okay. They keep it a secret from each other, and that isn't helping.

Liam and Zayn were the power couple in their high school, Liam being the captain of the football team and Zayn being the captain of the dance team. Everyone around school loved them, and knew they would both amount to a lot, sticking together forever. Or at least that's what they thought. One day, Liam went missing, no one, not even Zayn, knowing where he had gone off to or where he was. Or is someone had taken him. The news went worldwide, since Liam was well known as the guy who had been offered a full scholarship to the university of his choice and had been accepted to Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, Colombia, Berkeley and Cambridge Universities. Making it a top priority to find him. Well, that was the plan at first, anyway. Zayn didn't know what to do, with Liam missing and having to worry about whether or not he was okay, let alone alive, put Zayn on edge as he spent his last year in high school without him. Going through depression, and so many other things. Some things he never thought he would ever experience in his life. But as the days and months go by where Liam hasn't return, and there is no sign of him, it makes it hard on Zayn to learn to live without him.

Zayn has tormented Liam throughout all of high school. Liam is openly gay, which is what Zayn mainly touches on. His favorite way to tease and bully Liam is by calling him "Princess," but when another bully dares to mess with Liam, and Zayn begins to learn more about the boy he teases, the mocking word becomes a loving one. "You're my Princess, Liam"
