Zayn's POV:
I woke up at 3 am and looked behind me, Harry wasn't there, where did he go now? I saw his mobile in the room so I knew he's in the home, I got up and wore my shirt then went downstairs, I saw small light coming from the kitchen so I walked to it and saw Harry sitting there on the table with a cup of tea in front of it, he was covering his face with his hands so he didn't notice me coming, I cleared my throat and he looked at me, he smiled tiredly at me, his eyes are so heavy and almost closed.
"why you're still awake?" I got closer and sat next to him, "you can barely keep your eyes open!" I said as I took a sip from his cup
"I'm a terrible brother.." he mumbled under his breath and I looked at him with wide eyes, "of course you're not.. why you're saying that Hazza?" I asked him and he shook his head no "because Lauren hates me so much, I'm a terrible brother, I can't do any thing good for her, first Simon and now Justin.. Zayn I can't even talk to her, I can't make her feel better. I can't even hug her!" Harry sighed and returned his head between his hands
"Harry.. don't say that. you just need more time.. week ago, you didn't even know that you have a sister! what's happening to you now is a normal thing" I said and he looked at me "that's the problem.. I didn't know her before, she was alone, she lived in an orphanage for 6 years, she got adopted and her mother died, then her father decided to marry again.. if I only knew before.." he stopped for a second and looked away "I wasn't there for her.. I don't know how she lived through all of this, how she reacted to her mother's death, where she worked, how many boyfriends she had.. I don't even know if she's a virgin!" Harry sighed and I almost coughed..
"Harry! being a brother doesn't mean you have to be a bodyguard!" I said and he rolled his eyes
"look who's talking, you think I don't here you when you ask your sisters if there any guys in their lives?" he grinned
"I just ask them about it! it's not like I hold a knife for them.." I said defendly
"oh yeah? what about when you tell your mother that you're gonna cut their dicks if they got close, or even tried to get close to your sisters?" Harry said and I blushed and turned my face "whatever.. don't compare yourself with me, besides I'm a bad boy and cutting dicks is my job" I joked causing Harry to laugh
"thanks Zaynie.. you are the best" harry said as he put his hand on my shoulder and pulled me for a hug
"yes.. I am" he slapped my playfully and I giggled and broke the hug
"come on big brother, let's get some sleep" I said as I got up and offered my hand to harry, he took it and we both went upstairs to our room, but before we open the door we heard Lauren shouting in her room..
"Lauren's POV:
after what happened with Justin and the fight that happened because of me,I shouted at Zayn and he got out from the room leaving me here alone with my tears, my stupid tears that roll down my cheeks all the time, I'm not being sensitive as Harry said but it's so hard to keep all these emotions inside me, my body is like a volcano that struggles to explode.
what happened minutes ago was terrible, I can't believe how weak I felt and how dumb I looked in front of Zayn, he must thought that I wanted to kiss Justin, but everything happened in blink of an eye and I was surprised, I've never had a guy in my room before, I've never got this close to a guy before..
I covered my face with my pillow and cried to it until I fell asleep..
"did you really thinks you can run away from me?" he whispered in my ear causing my whole body to shiver
"Justin?" I closed my eyes and asked
"wrong answer, bitch.."
"Jack.." I mumbled. suddenly, everything went dark and I couldn't see anything, "I'll always be here, stuck in the back of your mind. stuck in you. stuck in your future.." he laughed in my ear and I felt something sharp stabbed in my back, then it started moving down to my legs, slowly and painfully..
"No.. please..NOOOOOO"
"Lauren.. Lauren wake up.. Lauren" I felt two hands shaking me so hard
"NO.. please..NOOOOO" I sat up quickly and my eyes flushed open, my body was covered with sweat and my heart was racing so fast in my chest making me run out of breath.. I looked around me and saw Harry sitting next to me, his eyes full of worries, but he wasn't alone, Zayn was there standing on the door with a worried look too..
"shhh.. it's just a nightmare.." Harry said as he put his right hand on my chest feeling my heart while the other one stroked my shoulder, I took a deep breath and let it out loudly "yes.. yes it was..just a nightmare"
"wanna talk about it?" Harry said softly as he stroked my shoulder, I shook my head "no.. not really, it's nothing" I ran my fingers through my hair then looked at Zayn, he was staring at me with his perfect Hazel eyes "I'll bring you some water" he said before leaving the room
Zayn brought me the water and I took a big gulps from it before giving it back to Zayn "better?" he asked and I nodded "much better" I forced a smile but he didn't give one back, he kept his gaze at me making me nervous, "if you need anything, just call me ok? " Harry said breaking the awkward silence that filled the room and I smiled shyly at him and nodded again, I was so tired to say anything,,
he got up and went to the door, Zayn gave me one more you-are hiding-something kind of looks before he headed to the door, he was about to turn off the lights when I suddenly spoke "c-can you leave them on?" my voice was shaking and he turned his face and looked at me
"sure.." he smiled sweetly and left the room..
