Missing In Action 35

I immediately froze. He started yelling at the other guy.

Mark noticed that I saw him. 

"Come on you have to get out here. Wait outside with Amanda." He said taking me to the front door. 

I stood there, frozen in shock. Did I really just see Zayn?! 

"She saw him." Mark told Amanda.

"I'll be right back." He said going back into the crowd if drunk men. 

I felt the blood drain from my face. 

"Perrie, listen..." Amanda said. 

"Mark knows Zayn, they were in the same regiment together...he didn't know that you were his girlfriend until we went over to your house yesterday. Thats when Mark saw Zayn in the picture your daughter showed us." Amanda said. 

"H-he's ...a-alive?" I asked with a shaky voice. 

"He's alive." She smiled. 

My breath started to quicken. I felt chills go up and down my spine. 

"W-wha-wha..." I tried to talk but I couldn't. 

"Breathe Perrie. Just breathe slowly." Amanda said as one hand held mine and the other on my back, just in case I wouldn't fall. 

I heard Marks muffled voice on the side of the building. So did Amanda.

"Come on." She said taking my hand.

We walked between the two buildings. 

We heard Marks voice more clearly now. 

"What are you doing, man. Your gonna get yourself killed." I heard Mark say. 

In the dim light of the Alley, we saw Mark holding Zayn against the wall, trying to calm him down.

"Mark you gotta let me back in there. That guy is gonna get what he's fucking asking for." Zayn said heated with anger. 

"No man, I won't let you." Mark said. 

Zayn pushed Mark away. 

"Fine, then." He said angered.

"What's gotten into you?" Mark asked. 

"What's gotten into me? You try coming back home from a war to nothing! My family is not alive like yours is!" He yelled. 

My heart broke. He thought I was Dead?

Zayn started to walk away. 

"Zayn, Perrie's alive." Mark said. 

Zayn stopped in his tracks. He slowly turned around.

"Don't fuck around with me, Mark." Zayn said. 

"She's alive. I'm not fucking around." He said serious.

"W-what?" Zayn said as if he was unable to speak. 

I knew that I had to prove to him that I was really alive.

"Zayn..." I said almost in tears as I got closer to the light that they stood under. 

Zayn looked at me. His face went pale white.

"Perrie?" He said with a cracked voice. 

We both stood there shocked. 

"Your...your alive?" I asked about to cry. 

He quickly ran over to me embracing me. I did the same. His hugs. The tender hugs that missed for 3 years, I finally get to have again. I was sobbing now.
