The world of One Direction was rocked today (March 25), when just a week after leaving the band's On The Road Again Tour, Zayn Malik officially quit the boy band. The former fivesome is known almost as much for their rabid fanbase as their sweet, sweet brand of pop music. So, it's safe to safe 1D fans are freaking out on Twitter.
As of publication time, Malik and One Direction take up six of the top 10 trending topics on U.S. Twitter.
The reactions range from supportive of the band and Malik:
We will always love you no matter what happens. #WeLoveYouZayn #AlwaysInOurHeartsZaynMalik pic.twitter.com/ZHCXbK2OR2

And a few people (likely not to be Directioners) are even willing to make a few jokes about the band...
One direction more like Two directions cause one guy left or something and he's now going in a different direction do you get it — Owen (@MaskedRazzle) March 25, 2015
Regardless, we're all experiencing a lot of feels... #AlwaysInOurHeartsZayn 4real.
