Zayn’s brush worked against the canvas, creating a painting of a young, lost boy. He was sad and crying, his knees curled to his chest with his blond hair sticking in all directions.
"Charming," Zayn sighed, wanting to caress the face that belonged to the boy in the painting. "I'm so sorry." Zayn cried, crouching and leaning his head against his hands, his elbows rested on the table beside the easel.
What if Niall didn’t forgive him? How would Zayn lives without Niall wrapped in his arms? The mess of blond hair tickling his face when he woke to the sweet smell of breakfast, Niall’s tiny hands tracing patterns on his lower stomach with his head rest on Zayn’s broad chest.
Zayn cried for some time, tugging at the hair on his head before he straightened himself up, taking a deep breath and turning on the radio which played Read All About it by Emeli Sande and Zayn knew just who the song reminded him of, His tears braking through again.
He whipped his eyes, singing along to the song...That was it! What if Zayn sung Niall a song? A song of triumph and betrayal and Love. Something Niall would melt for, something the younger would understand.
But surly, a stunt like such couldn’t be put to the test alone.
Zayn whipped his hands off, swinging the art room door open and rushing up the stairs to Louis room were the door was closed, muffled sounds ringing in Zayn’s ears but he paid no mind. He pushed the door open, disturbing the sexually active couple who tore apart. "Zayn what the hell!" Louis screeched, pulling the blankets around the two.
"Can you guys sing?" Zayn asked franticly, pacing around Louis room. "What?" Harry whipped his mouth, staring at the distorted boy in front of them. "I want to sing for Niall, but I can’t do it alone! Can you guys sing or not!"
Louis and harry looked at each other, shrugging.

The next day the boys found themselves in the art room, Jay rushing in and out with song ideas, but none fit like Zayn wanted them too.
Nothing seemed right for such a magical person; such a beautiful soul.
"C'mon Zee, we've been at this forever!" Harry groaned, flipping through his songs, pressing play but each one Zayn shot down.
Just then Lottie skipped into the room, smiling brightly. "What are you guys doing?" She giggled, propping herself up on the table. "Trying to find a song for Zayn to sing to Niall, but he doesn’t like anything." Louis groaned, walking over to Harry and cuddling into his side.
"Here, how about this?" She laughed, scrolling through her phone, clicking on a song that started out slowly.
“Right from the start you were a thief, you stole my heart and I, you’re willing victim."
Zayn bit his lips, smiling.
As the song played on a second voice joined in and he knew he found the right song. The song to fill his heart with and spill it all out to Niall, a wonderful way to express his feelings for the autistic blonde.
"That’s the one..." He finally smiled, taking Lottie’s phone and looking plugging it into the speakers were he turned it up, grabbing Lottie’s hands and spinning her around the room.
Louis grabbed Harry and they twirled around the room together, laughing wildly.
Someone cleared there throat across the room and Zayn’s head shot up to catch Jay's eyes. "You guys were doing wonderful, but can I ask what you’re doing?" she laughed, crossing her arms. "We found the song! And well, we got carried away." Zayn chuckled, pressing pause on the song.
"Well, I just wanted to let you know, someone needs to watch Niall while he takes his bath and he said he doesn’t want to see you ever again." Jay sighed. Zayn bit his lip, holding back the tears once again. "Louis, would you mind watching Niall while he bathes?"
Louis nodded his head, following jay out of the room and up the stairs, Harry following soon after.
~*~
"Ni?" Louis poked his head in the bathroom as Niall got undressed, jay already having prepared his bath. "Hi," He whispered, pulling off his boxers and getting in the warm water. "Are you still mad bud?" Louis asked, ruffling Niall’s hair and grabbing some soap. Harry sat on the floor, Louis on the side of the tub. "Yes." Niall crossed is little arms, making a small growl.
"Honey, you can’t be mad at him forever." Harry said, helping Louis massage Niall’s scalp, spreading the soap all around. "Yes I can." Niall said in a childish voice. After a few minutes of scrubbing, ad washing Niall's voice sounded once more. "Is he aloud to do that? K-Kiss her?" He asked innocently.
Niall was new to this whole relationship thing.
"No...But he didn’t, Okay? That girl kissed Zayn, he didn’t want to kiss her. You know he only likes kissing you, Ni." Harry offered gently, rubbing Niall’s shoulder. "Is he going to have sex with her too?" Niall sniffled.
"No-" Louis chuckled. "Zayn’s gay, which means he only likes boys, and you unparticular." Niall still crossed his arms, shaking his head. "I don’t believe you."
And there was nothing they could do to make him believe them. Niall didn’t want to believe anyone. "Would you let him try to...make it up to you?"
Niall thought for a moment, shrugging his shoulders and continuing to play with his Mickey Mouse bath toys.
"Just think about it, Okay Buddy?" Niall nodded his head slowly as Harry and Louis rinsed him off and helping him get out of the bath were he got dressed and climbed back into bed, sulking.
When Harry and Louis left the room, they closed the door quietly, making their way down the steps. "That poor kid..." Harry sighed, grabbing Louis hand as they pranced to the art room. "He'll be okay once he sees wha-Woh..." Louis gasped.
Zayn and Lottie worked to pin large paintings along the wall of a blonde boy and a darker headed lad. "What is this?" Harry asked, looking up at the walls. "The story of me and Niall," He bit his lip, finishing with pinning the last picture, were the two shared a soft kiss, their hands intertwined.
"It’s...Amazing." Harry smiled, closing the door behind them. "Okay, well...I wanted to work on the song, is that okay?" Zayn asked, tuning the stereo back to the song he was becoming addicted to.
"Sure," Louis said.
Zayn and Lottie worked on choreography and settled to have the boy sit on stoles, they even hade microphones.
They then begun on who sun what.
Harry and Louis quieted for the first verse as Zayn started, then joining in. When the second part came, Harry had his own type of solo, Louis and Zayn his echo.
Of course all the high notes belonged to Zayn; he was best with those they found.
Once they had the song all figured out it was nearly midnight which meant another night on the couch for Zayn.
Not that he didn’t like the couch, but he missed Niall’s warm body beside his, there legs tangled together in a mess unrecognizable limbs. Zayn missed getting to sleep naked with Niall all sweaty and pressed against him. That was his favorite thing after they first had sex. It was amazing, having Niall pressed to him like that.
Even though they had only done it twice, Zayn found sex with Niall one of the most exhilarating experiences. The way the younger squirmed and pleaded to be fucked, but really, he loved it soft and gentle, just the way Zayn liked giving it to him.
Zayn found himself emerged in dirty thoughts that he didn’t even notice the pitter pat feet coming down the stairs. Luckily, he wasn’t sporting a hard-on when the small body climbed under the blanket. "Zaynie?" Phoebe’s voice chimed questioningly, nuzzling closer to him. "Yes Princess?"
The girl sighed, looking up at Zayn. "Are you and Ni fighting?"
Zayn sighed. He really didn’t want to answer that, but he had to...He just had to. He couldn’t lie to one of his Princesses. "Yeah...but don’t worry Phoebes, me and Niall will be fine." Zayn smiled.
Phoebe yawned, burring her head in Zayn’s chest. "Daisy slept with Niall but you weren’t in there. I didn’t know where you went." She sighed, playing with her hands. "I didn’t go anywhere, I'm right here. And don’t worry, Me and Niall will be fine. Just get some sleep, Princess."
Phoebe nodded, closing her eyes were she drifted off to sleep, Zayn’s thoughts rushing back to Niall.
Did he miss Zayn as much as Zayn missed him?
