Chapter 28
Zayn POV
I sat on my desk thinking about the things I've done. I have a wife who outed my affair, Niall doesn't what anything to do with me. Everything is spiraling out of control. It's my fault for visiting Niall, I was the one who caved and wanted to see him. I'm sick and tired of being unhappy. I've ruin Niall's heart and Perrie's. The paparazzi are going haywire on trying to find out who was I having an affair with. I'm thinking about making a statement to the public, but not sure."
I notice my office door swinging open taking me away from my thoughts.
"Hello Cyrus Beene, had a nice vacation?" I say, giving him a smug look.
He closes the door behind him and paces around my office.
"I go for vacation for three months and it's already chaos! Your lucky, I didn't get a stroke on the damn plane when I watched The First Lady interview yesterday and what the hell are you thinking!? An affair? Zayn, you gotta make a statement or you will lose re election."
I sigh, "Do I? I mean I'm not unhappy with being President, I just want to live my life with Niall."
"Niall? You're having an affair with a man!? Good lord Zayn! Do the public know his name?"
"No, they won't find out, that cannot happen. The paparazzi and the people who go on a frenzy. I need Niall save."
Cyrus shook his head, "You gotta make a cover up story, it's going to eventually come that's it's Niall and then what? You need a backup plan. Hire a women and say you've been with her for one night and you pay for her services to keep her mouth shut,then you tell the world it was a random hook up with a women and boom the scandal is gone." Cyrus reasoned.
"I don't think it will work Cyrus."
"Zayn, the time is ticking the people are getting anxious and the gossip is on the rise, there hasn't been this much bad attention on the White House for a long time. Act fast before the secret is out." Cyrus warned.
"I have it handle, I just need to make a statement and it should clear some things up."
"You better because you're re election is at risk, I advise to make it short, but very effective for the American people."
I nodded. "How's James?" I questioned.
"Oh he's another one! Why on earth did Perrie pick my husband to do the interview, now he's going to start hounding me for information. It's not going to work."
I laugh. "You go Cyrus Beene." I cheered.
"What's the situation with you and this Niall guy." Cyrus says, pouring some water into the glass and taking a sit in front of me.
" I have no idea, I might of ruined it by mistakenly said, I love Perrie instead of him." I muttered.
"You sir are an idiot! How you can make a mistake like that!"
"It just slipped out. I didn't mean to say it like that, I was going to say Niall, but everyone was happening was so fast and Perrie was on my mind." I reasoned.
"Maybe this is a sign to stop with you're little affair with Niall and start taking marriage counseling."
"I can't do that, I'm in love with Niall and not Perrie."
"She carrying your child." Cyrus pointed.
"So, I didn't plan to get her pregnant she did it on her own when she put holes on the condom, it's her fault." I grumbled.
"It's your fault too, you having this affair is causing problems for everyone, it's not right in any way to cheat on the First Lady. People look up to you're marriage as a sign of true love still exist, now people may not vote for you."
"Yeah, I know, I'm going to work on the speech now and call Niall."
"Ok, I will give you some privacy, Mr. President."
"Why thank you, Chef of Staff." I chucked a little.
"Very funny Zayn, you're in deep shit now, just fix it."
"Alright, alright no more jokes." I said seriously, Cyrus nodded and exit my office. I sigh and dialed Niall's number.
"Hello, this is Niall."
"Hey it's me, Zayn."
"What do you want?"
I sigh. "I wanted to see how you were doing. We didn't finish our conversation yesterday."
"Things were said and we have to move on from this, the more we talk and keep seeing each other it going to be blow up in you're face. We are over, do your campaigning towards re election and leave me alone." Niall spat.
"It that all you care about? I'm calling you because I wanna know how are you. I called you first before I write my speech I'm giving in a little while. I don't give a shit about re elections right now, I care about us. I told you yesterday that I didn't care about what Perrie said during the interview, I was with you."
"And look what you caused by being with me. Losing respect for yourself and me being the person who wrecked your marriage. If people find out I'm the reason for getting in between the marriage of the President. People will hate me and call me awful names. I know what I did was wrong, but I'm not regretting that I fallin in love with you Zayn, but it's never going to work out, I want you to choose you're job over me." Niall choked out.
"This job doesn't matter to me, just you say the damn word. I will get out my president office and shout to the world that I love Niall Horan. Tell me to come to you, so I can make love to you and I can be with you." I pleaded.
"I'm sorry, but I can't. The people and Perrie need you more than me. Your the President Of The United States start acting like one. Goodbye Zayn." Niall says sadly, then hanged up. I slam my phone down on my desk and took out a sheet of paper and started to write my statement.
Niall POV
I dried my tears away with a napkin Louis had givin me. I'm scarifying my love for Zayn for his job in being President. I don't wanna be selfish, I made a mistake in falling in love with Zayn, I'm paying the price of not accepting him back into my life.
"Niall, are you going to be ok?" Louis says, taking my hand. I gave it a little squeeze.
"Yeah, I'm going to be fine, it just Zayn got to me when he called me." I sniffled.
"What did he say?"
"He would risk his presidency for me, I can't tell him to that. It's something he work hard for and I'm not going to make matters worst by letting him quit his job over a whore like me." I mumble.
"Niall, your not a whore ok. People just doesn't understand affairs. It's complicated because, if your the person being cheated on, you have the right to be pissed and the person who caused it is always the bad person." Louis huff.
"Exactly, I'm the bad person who ruined their marriage, I will be forever hated, if the public finds out it was me."
"Zayn knew what he was doing, he doesn't love Perrie, their were rumors going around that Perrie dated and marry him for his power and to be the First Lady." Louis noted.
"It's still wrong for being with Zayn." I whisper. I notice the tv was flashing breaking news, I turn up the volume up.
"We are here live from Washington, the President is giving a statement on the events that occurred yesterday night. If you haven't heard, the First Lady made a interview on revealing that the Presidents was having an affair, but it's still unknown who was the mistress and why would the President do this. The President is going to be speaking right now, as you can see, Zayn standing on the podium looking rather stress, let's see what's he got to say." The reporter rambled.
I stared at the tv intently looking at Zayn flawless features, it pains me to see him looking stress and dealing with Perrie's aftermath yesterday. Zayn's blonde streak his fading away, I wonder if he's going to dye it again. I've miss his hugs and the way he stared at me. Zayn tap the microphone to get everyone attention. I smiled a little as Zayn bites his lip before speaking.
"It was a tragedy seeing my wife so broken during her interview. I vow to work on our marriage. I have let down my wife and the people who voted for me. The person who I was involved with will not be named, because this is person doesn't need the spotlight on them. I deeply sorry for the people I've hurt. It funny how, the person who I was having an affair with told me to stop what we were doing, but I couldn't, it was like an addictive poison that I couldn't get enough off. I will be running for another term for re-election and will make better decision in fixing my marriage and the United States. Thank you for your patiences in this matter, I work even harder to be your President for the next four years." Zayn says in determination and walked off camera with security guards following him.
"And their you have it. The President has confirmed his affair, but still did not clarify who was he having an Affair with. Now the President is going back to the White House, we do have some speculation that Jasmine who was Zayn's pervious personal assistant could be involved in the affair since she did quit. Now recently Niall Horan quit being Zayn's second personal assistant, and no comment on why did Niall left, could he be the one sleeping with the President? Only time will tell." The reporter excited.
I turn off the TV. The reporter being all excited like this was a game, it's not. I love how Zayn handle his speech and he did it very quickly and effective, I hope he repairs his marriage and starts fresh with a Perrie.
"I'm going to lay down." I murmured to Louis.
"Do you want me to cuddle with you? You know you don't have to hide you're feelings Niall, I don't want you to start feeling depress again."
"I just need a nap to help me calm my nerves, I promise I'm going to fine." I smile weakly.
"Can I nap with you, Niall pleaseee." Aiden pleaded, trying to climb on my leg.
"Of course you can, my baby." I say picking my Aiden giving him a kiss on the cheek.
"Are you going to stay? I don't want you to leave." I say, trying not to sound desperate towards Louis.
"Yeah of course I will stay. I'm you're support system." Louis says smiling. I went up to him and hugged him.
"Thank you Louis for everything, if I didn't have you as a best friend I think I would've been a wreck." I croaked, trying not to cry.
"Anytime Niall, you gotta be strong ok, for Aiden and me."
I nodded and headed upstairs. I get into bed and lay on my side, while Aiden rested on his side facing me with his head resting my chest. I play with his hair until he falls asleep. That's when I let the tears fall down my face without making any noise.
