Stardust | Zayn

he used to live in the noise. bright lights, endless stages, and the kind of fame that left his soul aching for silence. now, zayn hides away on a quiet farm, where mornings smell like rain and the only applause comes from the wind moving through the trees. he writes songs he never lets anyone hear, held back by the fear that the world has already forgotten him.

then, one october night, when the ghosts of his past feel heavier than usual, he meets her - a stranger with tired eyes and a heart that feels strangely familiar. what begins as a ride home turns into something softer, slower, and terrifyingly real. she sees him not as the man he was, but the man he's still trying to be.

zayn wasn't looking for love. he traded stages for quiet fields, the chaos for calm, and fame for the kind of peace you only find when no one's watching. his days became simple- music written in secret, a daughter who is his world, and a life untouched by the noise he left behind

neither of them expects it to become more. but love, the quiet kind, doesn't ask for permission - it just grows, softly and slowly, until it's everything.
