anxiety canon establishedrelationship onedirection ot5 zaynleavingband ziam ziamfic

Zayn Malik cancels his very first public performance as a solo artist and cites 'anxiety' as the reason. Liam helps Zayn reveal 'The Truth' to the other boys of 1D, after a year of silence.    

The truth behind Zayn leaving the band, his anxiety, and an OT5 reunion.

Author's Notes: No offence to anyone but this is just my version of what happened! No intention to belittle anyone with anxiety, least of all Zayn. It's only a fic, my very first one at that, 6 months into the fandom.

Massive thanks to the  gorgeous Reema for being my beta.

Kudos and comments are my manna from fic-writers heaven! 😊Mistakes, if any, are mine. Enjoy!

The Comic Book Store (z.m) by zeetheshipper

"Liam Payne... I burn for you." "Must you make everything sound gay?" "It's literally all your fault for being the most attractive person alive." Zayn Malik thinks Liam Payne is the most beautiful person, inside out. Not the Liam Payne that he portrays most times, the friendly jock who pretends to drink at parties and pretends he enjoys being surrounded by a dozen people talking about empty nonsense. No, he likes the true Liam. Brave, dorky, bashful, sweet. He just wishes Liam would see the beauty in the person he was behind the mask. Liam Payne is terrified of Zayn Malik. Because he thinks he is the most beautiful person he has ever seen, more beautiful than even his girlfriend. And worse, Zayn was meant to be a face in the crowd but refused to leave him be. And for some reason, he wants to see more of the cringey part of himself he has worked so hard to hide. Zayn finds that part of him beautiful. As if Liam didn't need even more reason to run from him. Two souls, messed up in their own ways. One who puts all cards on the table and hides none of his feelings while the other is desperate to pretend there isn't something there. And a comic book store. What could go wrong? One fell first but the other fell harder <3 This book is ✨COMPLETED✨
