Zayn’s POV

I sat in my dorm, wondering if Tiff was safe. I shouldn’t have left her there, what if something happened to her?

I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep a wink tonight until I checked on her. Niall lay next to me, his head phones in, nodding his head slightly to the beat of his music.

“Niall.”

Niall didn’t even glance up, so I threw a pillow at him.
He took his head phones out. “What?”
“I’ll be back soon; I have to go do something.”
“Okay.” He put his headphones back in.

I stood up and swiftly left the room, making my way to Tiffany’s.
After sneaking through her corridor, I arrived at her dorm-room.

I knocked on the door and waited for an answer, only to be met by a crying Tiffany.
“What do you want?” She sniffled.
“I’ve come to say I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have left you there alone and I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep if I didn’t know you were safe.”

“How touching.” She said sarcastically, whipping her nose with a tissue.
“Well I care about you.”
“Bullshit. If you cared about me, you wouldn’t have left me alone in a scary place, at NIGHT…”

I was about to argue, but before I could say anything, she continued.
“NO. If you cared about me, you wouldn’t have stepped in and ruined my whole relationship with my boyfriend. Because now all I’m left with is a broken heart.”

She slammed the door in my face.
Walking back to my dorm, I had time to think.

How could a girl change me like this? I used to be a badass, not caring about anyone but myself. Doing what I wanted and not caring about the consequences. But now, I was starting to care about people. Tiffany has made me realise it’s not all about me, I have to care.

“What’s the craic buddy?” Niall asked me as I entered.

“Fucking shit all.”
“Where’d ya go?”
“I went to see Tiffany.”
“Oh yeah!” He winked at me.
“No…” I shook my head.
“Aren’t you into her?”
“Wow, you haven’t been keeping up have you?”

As Niall shook his head, I started to spill.

I told him absolutely everything, from the start in Physics, to leaving her at the waterfall today. Niall just sat there, nodding his head as I told him my story. I was surprised that he didn’t tell me to shut up half way through. I think coming to this college and meeting the people we’ve met has really changed all of us. Me, Niall, and even Harry.

Niall’s POV

I’d never seen Zayn like this.
And now that I knew the whole story, I could tell Zayn really loves this girl.

“If you care about her, help her. Don’t think of yourself in this one, think about her happiness. What’ll make her happy?”

I knew exactly what would make her happy, so I grabbed Niall’s face, kissed him on the head and thanked him.

And for the second time that night, I grabbed my jacket and headed out the door.
