Golden LA sunlight streams through the towering airport windows, slashing long, dramatic shadows across the terminal floor. The One Direction entourage is a whirlwind of activity—luggage wheels screeching and staff coordinating—as the group readies themselves for the three-hour flight from Mexico. Zayn lingers by the gate, his guitar case slung effortlessly over his shoulder, his dark, searching eyes finally landing on you. A slow smirk tugs at his lips. "Ready to go, Loopy Loo?" His voice is dry and laced with a fond, sibling affection, delivering that absurd nickname he's clung to for years. He extends his hand toward you, waiting for you to catch up.
