"I know that you are somewhere doing your thing, and when the phone called it just rang and rang. You ain't pick up but your phone accidently called me back and I heard the whole thing." - Kanye West, 'Blame Game'

"I refuse. I'm already in a committed relationship and not ashamed of who I am. Why do I need to parade around with some broad to get promo? I'm sorry, but fuck that." Zayn says, pissed that they even pitched him that idea in the first place.
"Zayn I really do appreciate your sincerity because I never wanna make you do something you don't want. I've been there and that's why I broke away from that. But I want to make you a successful singer and make you bigger than you imagine yourself. You didn't play those gigs in small coffee houses and parks to not end up showing the world what you're actually capable of. Besides you wouldn't be dating a female, you'd be dating a male model." Drake says, wincing a bit at Zayn's reaction.
What. The. Fuck.
"So you're gonna let me be out, but I can't be out with my actual boyfriend? Wow. I don't know what to say. Who even is this dude you want me to date?" Zayn says, still evidently perplexed.
"He should be here any minute, he just texted me saying he's outside." Louis says looking at his phone.
"He's actually here?! You guys really are putting me on the spot, huh?" Zayn says in an annoyed tone.
Drake shrugs but looks guilty as Louis does too.
Zayn knows Liam will never agree to this so he really doesn't know what to do.
"Ah look, there he is" Louis says, breaking the silence.
"Sorry I'm late" the person says, and looks intently at him.

The first thing Zayn notices is that the guy has long curly hair and is wearing unbelievably tight pants. He's also got on some sort of black and white print shirt and he really does scream model.
He has a very posh accent though, and Zayn hopes he's not some sort of stuck up rich kid.
The dude takes a seat besides Louis and looks at Zayn.
"I'm guessing your Zayn?"
Zayn nods at him.
"Well, I'm Harry. And if I'm being honest I'm just as nervous and scared about this as you are"
Zayn sighs and bites his bottom lip.
"You seem like a nice dude Harry, but I've got to think about this first. I'm already in a committed relationship and I don't know how my boyfriend will take this."
"And that's totally understandable" Drake says, interrupting him. "Just take your time. We've adjusted our timeline and pushed back the album as well as your single. Views is out in two months and your single will be out in four so I want to hype you as much as I can before hand. Think about it please."
Zayn gives him a tight smile and gets up. "Nice meeting you Harry" he says and quickly exits the room.
He passes by Noah again and gives him a wave.
Finally once he's outside he decides to call Lauren for advice.
The line rings and rings and as he's about to hang up he hears a faint "hello?"
"Hey Lo, how are you?"
"Zee! Hey dude. I'm great just at home chillin with Mani. Wanna come over?"
Zayn ponders the offer and says yes to Lauren.
"Yay, okay. I'll see you here"
Zayn hangs up and then opens his messaging app.
| To: My Darling | | Im going over to lauren | and mani's house see | you later babe . |
He receives a quick "K" as a response that makes him roll his eyes. Whatever.
He needs advice and Lauren is the person he needs to see. Hopefully she helps him sort out his thoughts.
