This year I learned that pain is inevitable. Loved ones will be lost whether it be death or simply growing apart. People will disappoint you and no matter how much you may love them, sometimes you need to walk away for yourself. It’s commendable to plan for the future and to visualize the things you want in life. Most likely none of it will happen and life will take you on a journey you never planned for. The number one lesson I have learned this year though is, No matter how unbearable the pain may be, love conquers everything and it can be found in the most unexpected places. We just have to be willing to invite it in and give it back. To cherish those who continue to love us even when we feel we don’t deserve it. That kind of love is hard to find and it will leave if it is not nourished, especially the love we need for ourselves.

I thought it was pretty cute Ziall moment, where Zayn just can’t keep his hands to himself, and once again touches his boy, and niall in his turn resists a little, because obviously Zayn chose not the best place to show his feelings. I thought in that way until i have learned some of the details. Now I’m starting slightly differently perceive the situation, and all eventually leads to the fact, that it’s the showdown.
This gifs from the press conference for This is us, August 18 2013. Yes, you aren’t mistaken - the day when Zayn allegedly proposed to Perrie. I don’t believe in the authenticity of this engagement, and I guess that on this day (before the conferences), the management told them that Perrie after a couple of days will come to a premiere with a ring on her ring finger, assuming the role of the Zayn’s bride.
And on these gif, Zayn tries to hold Niall for conversation (yes, Zayn anyway chose not the most suitable place for this purpose).
On the second one you can see how Niall furiously says him something, and Zayn immediately join with him in physical contact, gently put his hand on his stomach, into a kind of soothing gesture.
Liam and Harry immediately go toward the exit, but Louis marks time, and it seems like he watching for Niall and Zayn, look after them, so those aren’t too dispersed.
As you can see, Zayn decided to “take the bull by the horns” immediately, and talk to him
Noteworthy that after the London premiere, Zayn and Niall were spotted at Heathrow airport on the their way to New York. The other guys joined them later
Apparently Mr. Malik wanted to spend time alone with his boy, and perhaps apologize for this mistake that he made
During the NY premiere, Zayn all the time hanging out around Niall
And Niall decided to show everyone whom actually belongs Malik, unceremoniously leaving a kiss on his cheek, that came out quite intimate. Hmm.
“The days are becoming long, and in the evening I sit in the kitchen reading without a light. On the windowsill is a jug with a flowering branch of lilac, which I cut in a friend’s garden. It is pale purple, the color of a much-washed ultramarine blue shirt […] On the window embrasure, close to the windowpanes, hangs a shaving mirror. As I look up now, I see reflected in the mirror a sprig of the lilac branch: each petal of each tiny flower is vivid, distinct, near, so near that the petals look like the pores of a skin. At first I do not understand why what I see in the mirror is so much more intense than the rest of the branch which, in fact, is nearer to me. Then I realize that what I am looking at in the mirror is the far side of the lilac, the side fully lit by the last light of the sun.
Every evening my love for you is placed like that mirror.”
