Heya guys here's the mext chapter of the story, Really hope you like it, Leave me your feedback.

Zayns Pov:

Today was the day. I was either going to make a complete prat of myself, Or I was going to get my Niall back , I knew which one I wanted but what I want and what I get are two completely different things. This is the most scared I've ever been in my whole life. Harry told me Niall would 100% be there seen as he was performing already. I haven't seen him in over a week now, All I've got is pictures beautiful memories of our time together, I know its selfish to say but I want so much more then that. I want it all and I want it all with Niall. My friends haven't all come round to the idea of me being gay, Louis slowly coming round to the idea but I don't think he fully understands yet. I had just finished getting changed when my doorbell rang, I got false hope hoping it was Niall but of course it wasn't.

"Louis? What are you doing here?" I asked shocked to see Louis at my door.

"Can we talk?" He asked.

"Sure man, come in" I stepped aside to allow Louis entrance I didn't know how this was going to end but I couldn't feel worse then I already do. Louis walked into my house and went straight to the sitting room, I followed behind and leaned up against the wall while he sat on the chair, Things were silent for a while, Extremely awkward, Then he spoke.

"Why didn't you tell us you was gay?" He asked.

"I did tell someone, I told Li" I replied.

"Why him?" Louis whispered.

"Honestly? Because to me it felt like he was the only one I could tell without being judged. When I came out with he words 'I'm gay' he didn't look at me any different then before, He didn't treat me like I had a life threatening disease, He was there when it seemed that none of you would be" I replied honestly.

"So what your saying is you didn't feel that you could trust me?" 

"No-well-yeah I suppose. Honestly Lou what would you have done? If I turned around and told you I was gay and inlove with Ni, You could barley look at me when I told you I was gay before! You thought I was joking about it!" I replied trying to defend myself. Then he said it the words I never thought I would hear leave Louis mouth.

"I'm sorry Zayn, I'm sorry you didn't feel like you could come to me with all this, It's hard to adjust from you going from being my wing man to well being gay. It's a shock to the system you know?" Louis said looking at me.

"I know Lou, But I'm still me I'm still the same Zayn I just feel inlove with another lad, That's all that dosen't change or impact who I am. Falling inlove with Ni, It was the best thing I've ever done, He understands me, He took the time to see what was underneath the bad boy image, He listened to my problems instead of suggesting we go out and get laid, He held me when I cried made me feel that I'm not the waste of space I thought I was, It sounds corny but he taught me to love, I won't ever be sorry for that, If you accept me then you have to accept him too" I replied. Louis nodded before standing up and walking towards me. I thought he was going to punch me in the face, But he didn't, He pulled me into a hug letting me know nothing's changed. 

"Well we better get to this talent show so you can win him back" Louis said I looked at him confused, How could he know? He must have sensed my confusion because he replied with. "Harry told me everything, He gave me a good talking to and made me see, You fell inlove it's not a crime" I smiled at Louis before grabbing my jacket and leaving the house, All set up and ready to fight for my boy. Everything was falling back into place now all I needed was my Nialler to make me whole again.

Niall's Pov:

"Harry I can't fucking do this!" I shouted.

"What do you mean you can't do this?" Harry replied looking at me confused.

"He's here, Zayn's actually here!" I replied trying to calm myself down.

"Nialler, We both knew there was a chance he would be here, This is our last year of school of course he would be here, You need to take a deep breath calm down, Go out there and show him what your made of!" Harry said trying to give me a pep talk but honestly it wasn't working, I was scared I was really scared. What if he get's the wrong impression and thinks I want to go back to him just to get my heartbroken again? Wait! What?! Niall what the hell are you thinking! Of course you want him back it's why your doing all this you idiot! But I can't get hurt, Not again my heart can't take it!. I loved Zayn I really did but a heart can only take so much torment, So much ache before it dosen't want it anymore. Before I even had time to back out I heard one of the teachers say 'Next up is Niall Horan!" My heart stopped beating I was scared, No scratch that! I was petrified!. Harry gave me a thumbs up before going to take his seat. This was not going to go well. I grabbed my guitar and slung the strap over my shoulder before walking onto the stage. It was silent, You could have heard a pin drop out there, I felt like I was walking to my judgment day! There was a stool on the stage and a microphone that was it. I sat down on the stool lowering the microphone to my height. I looked out into the crowd and saw Zayn sitting there he was looking straight at me, His eyes piercing into my soul, I took a deep breath before speaking.

"Urm hi, So normally every year I sing a cheerful happy song, But not this year, No this year I'm going to sing a song that I wrote myself, A song that's personal to me in every way. This song is about someone who's hurt me more then they can ever know, That person knows exactly who they are so I'm not going to embarrass them by saying there name. Many of you don't know my name, Most of you don't even want to know me. You all seemed to of judged me by the way I look, The way I talk, Or the fact I'm gay, You all have an opinion of me without even truly knowing me, So did this person but they took the time to see the real me", I looked directly at Zayn speaking the final words,"Even though you hurt me more then you can ever imagine I wan't you to know I will never regret the time we had together, I will never be sorry for loving you, I know I will never find a love like the one I shared with you, Because that love was to strong to beat. So this song is called wine after whiskey".

I looked away from Zayn, his eyes showed hurt, I looked down before taking a deep breath and strumming my guitar strings.

(Song is Carrie Underwood-Wine After Whiskey)

"Once upon a time our world was on fire and I loved to watch it burn

Wild and reckless, never any limits, guess I had a lot to learn

Cause fire turns to embers, embers to ashes that blow away too soon

Now everything after you is like having wine after whiskey

It went from do anything for you babe to you don't even miss me

Once you've tasted a love that strong you can't go back

And you can't settle on anything less

And that's what gets me. It's like having wine after whiskey

Looking back I guess it's really for the best, still you're something that I crave

Even though I know it was right to let you go. You're a habit hard to break

I got used to being high and nothing that I try seems good enough right now

It's all so watered down like having wine after whiskey

It went from do anything for you babe to you don't even miss me

Once you've tasted a love that strong

You can't go back and you can't settle on anything less

And that's what gets me. It's like having wine after whiskey

Once you've tasted a love that strong you can't go back

And you can't settle on anything less

And that's what gets me.

It's like having wine

It's like having wine after whiskey"

I finished the song trying to keep my composure, I stood up from the stool and people started to clap and cheer for me, I looked directly at Zayn again and I saw tears in his eyes. It broke my heart but he had to know, What it was like to be me, To feel that pain. The moment I walked off the stage Harry was there, He pulled me into his arms and whispered 'You done it Nialler'. I smiled at Harry before walking into the crowd to take our seats to watch the rest of the show, I looked around and Zayn was no where to be seen, I was wrong I thought he could stick it out but no, He ran like a coward, He would never change that's what hurt me the most. 

"Ladies and gentlemen we have a last minute addition to the show, Please give it up for Zayn Malik". I looked up from my seat in utter shock, I had to be hearing things right? I looked at Harry who had a smile on his face, What the hell was going on, then I saw Zayn walk onto the stage microphone in hand, I was frozen to my seat what the hell was going on?

Zayn's Pov:

The look on Niall's face was enough to tell me he was shocked, I didn't blame him either, If I was in his position I'd be shocked myself, The song Niall sang really got to me, It was about me I knew that much I could tell from the look in his eyes, The sadness, But the words he spoke still gave me hope, Hope that I could win him back and I was going to whatever it takes.

"Hello, So before I make a complete fool of myself I want to say a few words. See for the past few months I've been living a complete lie, I've been denying what I am. A few months ago someone came into my life, Someone I didn't expect to, This person showed me that it's ok to be who you are and not live in denial about it, This person showed me exactly who I want to be. But a week and a half ago, I hurt that very person, The person who meant the entire world to me, I hurt that person without even meaning to. Since then they've refused to speak to me, People say they know what suffering is but you don't suffering is living a lie about who you really are, Suffering is having the one person you love refuse to speak to you, Suffering is having your whole world crash before your very eyes and being to scared to stop it. Since then I've been sat thinking of ways to get this person to understand how much they truly mean to me, What I would give to hold them in my arms again, So here I am about to make a complete twat of myself infront of all of you for that person, Who is this person? Well he's one of the most amazing, Strongest and beautifulest person I know, that's right I said he! I'm gay either accept it or get lost I don't care anymore, I'm sick of being scared of who I am, Niall Horan I was an ass to you and I know I hurt you more then words will ever say but Ni, The thing is I love you so much. I lost you all because of words I couldn't say, So now I'm going to say them, Ni please forgive me, I love you". 

I stepped back with the microphone in my hand looking directly at Niall, It's now or never Zayn, I said to myself before I brought the microphone to my lips and began to sing. 

(Song is Rascal Flatts-Words I Couldn't Say, the song was my inspiration for this story)

"In a book- in a box- in the closet

In a line- in a song I once heard

In a moment on a front porch late one June

In a breath inside a whisper beneath the moon

There it was at the tip of my fingers

There it was on the tip of my tongue

There you were and I had never been that far

There it was the whole world wrapped inside my arms

And I let it all slip away

What do I do now that you're gone

No back up plan no second chance

And no one else to blame

All I can hear in the silence that remains

Are the words I couldn't say

Theres a rain that will never stop fallin

There a wall that I tried to take down

What I should have said just wouldn't pass my lips

So I held back and now we've come to this

And it too late now

What do I do now that your gone

No back up plan no second chance

And no one else to blame

All I can hear in the silence that remains

Are the words I couldn't say

What do I do now that your gone

No back up plan no second chance

And no one else to blame

All I can hear in the silence that remains

Are the words I couldn't say"

I finished singing the song and looked up to see Ni with tears in his eyes, He stood up and ran out the hall, Not looking back, There was no way I was letting him go not again so I dropped the microphone and ran after him, He's not slipping through my fingers not now, I won't let it happen again.
