When You Need Me the Most (I Will Turn You)

He closes his eyes and takes a deep breath, because well, his heart hurts a little; or maybe a lot.

His phone is going off and he knows who it is, but somehow the sounds not bothering him. His ears are only ringing with Zayn's voice- the soft curl of his accent sinking into his bones.

Its hard to exactly pinpoint what he's feeling- disappointment? hurt? but he thinks it might be a bit of everything. But when is it not?

And it's not that he needs Zayn- he doesn't- but he can't help the overwhelming amount of weight he feels inside his chest, dragging him down into the ground as if gravity was against him.

He knows it selfish but he only wants Zayn if things were the way they were before- and not in any other way.

He tries to breathe, but no matter how much air he feels in his lungs, he knows it isn't enough, until its suddenly too much.

He shuts his phone and turns off his lights.
