Love Is A Colour - Ziall Horlik AU

Niall Horan is a freak. Or so he is told every single day of his life by everyone he passes. That is, everyone but his parents of course, and Ms. Freda , his art teacher. Niall loves art, it is his life, painting especially.

He just adores the way his brush glides over his page, leaving trails of colours, bringing everything to life right in front of him. He loves the way he doesn't have to think when he's painting, doesn't have to worry about anything at all. As soon as his brush touches paper, his mind just seems to rid of any negative thoughts and just let go.

This dedication to art is not liked by other people at at his school though, to them this is another sign that 'Faggie' is just a worthless freak. Niall is both physically and verbally bullied every day at school, he doesn't know why they do it,they just do.
