    Summary

    Zayn is eight years old when he realises that he’s different. Contortion comes as naturally to him as walking does to most people—what doesn’t come naturally is acceptance from people around him. His family find it odd and the children at school think he’s a freak. The closest he comes to acceptance in his time at high school is through his gym teacher, Dave, who teaches him how to train his body and respect his gift; and Harry, a beautifully wild boy he meets by chance at a party who, too, has a secret talent. It's years before he'll see Harry again and find a place where he can excel at his talents.

    A Zayn-centric story about the struggles of being different or unusual, and finding family in unexpected places.

    Summary

    “Hey.” Harry hears from behind Yaser’s back and the sound of it makes every knot untangle in his stomach, every rope tied around his neck go lose and float away like they were never there to begin with. “You came.”

    Or, the one where Harry and Zayn find themselves on a month long vacation turned road-trip with a bucket-list, that doesn't end how Harry thought it would.

    Summary

    Zayn's dad explained it to him in a small speech, the day she was born.

    "No one prepares you for it. There aren't any manuals. Sometimes being a good parent means simply keeping your kid alive. Keep them breathing, make sure they're safe, love them until you could burst with it. On days when everything feels especially hard, just remember that your kid is Number One. Everything else becomes secondary. Less than. Minuscule by default. And believe me when I tell you this: when she eventually paints you a picture, sings you a song, does a cartwheel... always be sure to clap. If you're proud, make sure to say so."

    An AU about being a father, having faith, and growing up.

    Summary

    “I could’ve killed you a dozen times,” Zayn tells him, and he means for it to sound like an apology, maybe. Proof of a conscience, even after everything. Even after this. “A hundred.”

    Niall mockingly clicks his tongue in disapproval. “And I’m supposed to thank you for saving it all for a melodramatic stairwell scene?”
