Summary
“Well, okay, before you say it yourself I know it sounds crazy, s’just I’m sure that the branches of the Christmas tree moved on their own before.”
Or the time Zayn convinces himself they're about to be devoured by the rats from those terrible horror books he shouldn't have read when he was a kid on Christmas Eve.
Except maybe that's not what happens.

Summary
Since they were old enough to look into the stars and think 'What if I could go up there?' it's been their dream. It's now their reality.
These are the voyages of two men, and all those they meet and all that they encounter and everything in between, in space.

Somehow they find each other no matter how often it ends.
Three little words Liam didn’t utter can’t be the key to it all can it?

Summary
Ask Liam Payne about his life and he’d respond that he’s lucky, so lucky. He’s got this idyllic life he can’t even begin to feel he deserves.
Walk away from him at that moment and you won’t see the way his smile fades, how he absent-mindedly rubs at the scar that’s faded on the back of his neck.
How it’s guilt as much as a doubt that makes the smile fade.
Guilt because how can he be sad about this and all he has?
So little he knows.

Summary
Liam loved his job. He was a songwriter and producer, alongside his best mate Louis, and worked with a plethora of well- known musicians. He went to work, he went to the pub with his friends, and then he went home every night to his girlfriend Lucy. He loved his life.
“You sure do talk about Zayn a lot,” Louis said one night at the pub.
“Well, of course, I mean. We’re working on writing songs together, he’s going to be huge you know? The voice on him, you wouldn’t believe.” Liam smiled.
“Mate. You’ve been talking about him non-stop all night.” Niall looked concerned.
“He’s just - special, I’ve never met anyone like him.”
“We know, you’ve said he’s special, like, five times.” Harry raised an eyebrow, and Liam looked down at his drink, avoiding all eye contact with his friends.
Liam loved his life. Until he met Zayn.

Summary
Interviewer:
“What do you think is the cosmological effect of Zayn Malik leaving One Direction and consequently breaking the hearts of million of teenage girls across the world?”Stephen Hawking:
“Finally, a question about something important.”Liam looked up from the video playing on his phone, not even listening to the rest of Hawking’s answer. He felt like he was having an out of body experience. He looked down at his other hand and carefully counted on his fingers: himself, Harry, Louis and Niall. That was it. Those were the only members of One Direction, and that hadn’t changed since the band’s inception on X Factor.
Who the fuck was Zayn?
(Or, where Liam searches across time and space for the answer to the question: Who the fuck is Zayn?)

Summary
Liam's starting to think that maybe he’s just hearing things after all, just overreacting or being paranoid. But when he goes to tug on the handle to the side door half-heartedly he’s surprised to find it unlocked. And is even more surprised at what he finds when he slides it open.
“Um…hi,” says the person curled up inside. Liam can’t do anything but stare at the—admittedly quite attractive, if thin and slightly sickly-looking—man sitting in the middle of his van in a ratty old hoodie and leather jacket combo, knees up to his chest, with an unrolled sheet of insulation wrapped around him like a blanket burrito.
“What in the hell?” Liam says when he finally manages to remember how to make his mouth form words.
Or, Zayn is a homeless vampire who, unbeknownst to Liam, has been routinely breaking into Liam's van for a warm place to sleep. When Liam catches him in the act things end up going in a direction no one expected. And then shit gets weirder. Because Liam might also be hiding some secrets of his own...
