Niall's Pov:

Anything could have happened tonight, Zayn could have gotten seriously hurt, I don't know what I would have done if that had happened. I've finally faced up to the fact I have feelings for him, I can't deny it any longer. Things have become to dangerous, Zayn's stalker is now willing to strike in the most public places, Zayn could have been shot in that club, I sighed as I held Zayn's body closer to mine. News of the gun in the club has already spread online, And across the television, I shook my head as I gently stroked Zayn's arm letting him know I was still there, The gun shots shook him up badly. The car journey was quiet, Nobody was daring to speak, The shock was still sinking in. I watched closely as Paul climbed out the car to check around, Louis was still at the club collecting all the CCTV footage from all the cameras inside and outside of the club, We'll be watching it closely to see if we can find any trace or clue as to who this person is, I watched as Paul gave the signal signaling it was safe for Zayn.

"Zayn come on" I said softly, Zayn looked at me before nodding his head, We slowly climbed out the car and Zayn kept his body close to me, The second we were inside I guided Zayn towards his bedroom but he straight away stopped in his tracks.

"Your room" He stated, I nodded my head before guiding him inside it, I made Zayn stay near the door as I checked around the room, Nothing seemed out of the ordinary, I nodded my head before taking off my jacket and laying it down on the chair, Seconds later Zayn was beside me with his arms tightly wound around me. "I thought something was going to happen, I thought you were gonna get shot" He exclaimed, I shook my head as I slowly rubbed his back. 

"Nothing will happen to me, It's keeping you safe that matters the most" I stated, Zayn shook his head before cupping my cheek.

"Did you mean it? What you said in the club?" He asked, I was just about to reply before Zayn's phone began ringing. 

"You better take that, I'll grab you some clothes" I whispered before pressing a gentle kiss to his forehead, Zayn smiled slightly before answering the phone, I then left the room and began making my way to his room, Seconds later Louis walked down the hall. 

"We've got the footage, Do you want me to set it up?" He asked, I shook my head before running my fingers through my hair. 

"No, We'll watch it tomorrow, I need to make sure Zayn's settled" I replied, Louis nodded his head before looking at me with knowing eyes. 

"How is he?" He questioned.

"Shaken" I said.

"And you?" Louis asked.

"I'm fine" I stated, Louis looked at me before shaking his head.

"Are you alright?" He stated sternly. 

"I thought he was gonna die, I really thought something was gonna happen to him" I exclaimed, Louis sighed before pulling me into a hug. 

"Zayn's ok that's what matters, We'll catch this guy Ni I promise you that, But no matter what happens you can't go back because your scared" Louis stated, I nodded my head.

"I know there's no going back now" I replied, Louis smiled before gently squeezing my shoulder, He then began walking down the corridor and I sighed before making my way into Zayn's room and grabbing him some clothes, Once I'd done that I began making my way back to my room, I found Zayn sat down on the bed still on the phone.

"Who is it?" I mouthed.

"My mum" Zayn replied, I nodded my head before placing the clothes beside him. "Mum I'm fine here, I've got Niall he won't let anything happen to me" Zayn exclaimed.

"Tell your mum nothing will happen to you, She has my word" I said loudly enough for his mum to hear, Zayn smiled.

"Yeah that's him, He's brilliant" Zayn said, I smiled before shaking my head. "Mum I'll call you later alright? I love you too, Bye" Zayn stated before hanging up the phone, He then placed it on the side table before laying down, A sigh left his lips. 

"How are you feeling?" I asked as I made my way over to him.

"Scared, I don't know what's going to happen, And I'm scared that what I dread will happen" Zayn whispered.

"What's that?" I questioned as I sat beside him.

"I'm scared your gonna get hurt, That next time you'll end up in hospital and I'll have to sit back and watch you slip through my fingers knowing its all my fault it's happened" Zayn exclaimed, I shook my head.

"None of this is your fault, Zayn I'll do everything I can to protect you and I'll never let somebody hurt you" I stated.

"And what about you? What about you getting hurt? Because that would hurt me how can you protect me from that?" He whispered, I sighed before pulling him into my arms. 

"I can't answer that, But I'll do everything to protect you, I won't let you hurt, All I know for certain is nothing will happen to you for as long as I'm breathing you'll be safe" I assured him, Tears began to fill Zayn's eyes.

"Did you mean it? What you said at the club?" Zayn questioned, I nodded my head. "What changed? Before you were so dead set against us and now it's different, What changed?" Zayn asked as he cuddled his body closer to mine, I took hold of his hand and linked our fingers together.

"I finally stopped listening to my head, For so long I've lived by my dads rules, The rules of being the best bodyguard a person can be, One of my fathers main rules were to never fall inlove with a client, You can't risk that sort of bond getting in the way of your job, I never had that problem until you came along, When I started growing feelings for you I started thinking that I'd be disappointing my dad if I acted on them, So I pushed you away when I shouldn't have, But then Louis spoke to me, He gave me the reality check I needed, Made me see it's ok to fall inlove because it'll make me want to protect you a thousand times more, And he was right, When that gun shot went off my only thought was to keep you safe" I explained, Zayn chuckled.

"It took a gun shot for you to realize what I mean to you? That gun should have gone off alot sooner" Zayn joked, I chuckled before rolling my fingers around his. 

"So what happens now?" Zayn asked.

"I don't know, All I know is I'll never let anything happen to you, I promise" I stated, Zayn looked up at me.

"Promise me you'll never leave me, Losing you would destroy me" He whispered.

"I can't make you that promise, But I can promise you that I'll try and if anything does happen I'll do whatever it takes to get back to you" I exclaimed, Zayn smiled before leaning up and connecting our lips in a passionate kiss, My hand slowly slid to the back of his neck, The only sounds that could be heard were our lips moving together as one, We pulled apart seconds later with smiles plastered on both our faces, I bit my lip before pulling Zayn into another passionate kiss. Things slowly escalated, Clothes were removed, Moans of passion and pleasure echoed off the walls around us, Sighs of happiness and bliss slipped from our lips, Kisses were shared, Sweat glistened, Gentle touches were exchanged, We reached our climaxes together before collapsing into the soft mattress, Zayn's head was on my chest seconds later as we both tried catching our breath. 

"Can we forget the world exists? Forget about the stalker, Forget about everything, Just for tonight?" Zayn whispered, I nodded my head as I held him close to me. 

"We'll forget the world, Just for tonight it's all about us" I said softly, Zayn hummed in reply as his eyes slipped closed, I smiled as I held the boy closer to me, Maybe my father will be disappointed in me, Maybe he'll be proud but I've done what was right, I followed my heart, It's not wrong, It's my duty.
