Prince Payne

Zayn

Zayn woke up feeling guilty for being rude to liam yesterday. He hasn't felt this guilty in a long time, the last time was when he was proven for accusing skylar of cheating

Maybe he should give liam a break, he hasn't really done anything to hurt him

But he stole you away from your boyfriend and your freedom

Zayn got up to take a shower to clear his head. He stood in the shower clearing his mind while cleaning himself of yesterday's filth. When he was done he wrapped a towel around his waist and walk towards his closet to fetch some clothes from his luggage

When he entered the closet he saw that the entire thing was full of clothes. From suits to tshirts. It wasn't his style, he would rather wear black skinny jeans and lanky tshirt rather than polos and kaki shorts. He pulled black skinny jeans and a red long sleeve shirt to wear

He made his over towards his bed grabbing his new Iphone. He was egger to get it set up, but he didn't want to leave his bedroom

There was a knock on the door and it opened slowly as a man with curly hair amd green eyes made his way through with a tray of food. He placed the food down infront of zayn

"Good morning Mr.Malik" the servant said with a cheeky smile

"I didn't ask for this" he said back trying not to come across rude but if he did it wouldnt matter

"Every member of the royal family, or soon to be, gets breakfast" his words irritated zayn. Soon to be, soon to be gone. "Since it's 12pm, and the family meets for breakfast at 10am, I decided to take it upon myself to bring you your meal"

The offer was very flattering but zayn wasn't in the mood to eat. "I'll pass" he slid the tray further from himself. "Where the other servant, louis?"

He saw the servant in front of him blush a bit when he mentioned louis. Does he like him?

"Louis is busy with the prince at the moment, he has been ever since 8am. He is always with the prince whenever he gets upset" zayn felt a bit more guilty knowing he was the reason that liam is so upset right now

"It's funny because louis shouldn't even be here. He has worked off his debt three years ago" the servant said while picking up the tray and heading towards the door

"Wait!" The servant stopped and turned back to face zayn "what do you mean he shouldn't here?"

"Well" he started taking a seat infront of zayn "I shouldn't really be saying this but since you will be the princes husband soon I guess you should know. The prince is a very depressed and upset person. He has been ever since I worked here. Which was 5years ago? Anyways, he has many times hurt himself by cutting. He has tried killing himself three times, and I should know because louis and I have walked in on it. And ever since three years ago louis has been by the princes side. Making sure he is alright and healthy. I guess you can say he is the prince's protector in some way"

This news hit zayn like a hirricane. He never would think that liam would ne the person to do that to himself. He always seemed like a strong and well put together guy. "How do you know this?"

"Louis tells me a lot, also we are both very close to the prince. And knowing him, he is probably very upset right now"

He feels a lot more guilty now. He could be the person to make liam cut himself, he could cause that. He doesn't like the thought of that, especially since he helped his sister through the years she self harmed. He never wanted to cause someone the same pain his sister went through.

"Well thank you for sharing-"

"Harry"

"Harry. You can go now" and with that harry got up and left, closing the door behind him leaving zayn alone

He wanted to go apologise to liam but he knew he wouldn't be able to say anything to him if he is infront of him.

"I'm such a piece of shit"
