The Notebook- Chapter 13
Sophia’s POV
Zayn takes my hand and turns around, “Sophie, stay here, I’ll go check what that was but you stay here.”
“Zayn-”
“No Sophia. I’m serious, no arguing. That was a gun shot and I will not risk something happening to you.”
I look in his eyes and as much as I want to argue with him, I know it would only get him riled up. I nod my head, “Ok, but you be careful.” I give him a quick peck and then watch him walk away. I settle back down on the rock, impatiently waiting for him to return. A few minutes later I see hear someone coughing and I look and see Ryan. “Ryan, what are you doing here?”
“Soph, we need to leave. This place is no longer safe for you.”
“What- what happened to you?” I ask as I see some blood on him.
“Nothing, we have to leave already. Let’s go home and start packing.” he takes my hand and starts dragging me away.
“Wait, Ryan, let’s talk about this. We can’t-”
“Sophia, don’t argue please. You are not safe here-”
“But what happened to you?” I grab my things and stand next to Zayn. “What happened Zayn?”
“Soph, someone was shot and I tried to help but he was acting very sketchy and…I just have a feeling that you are no longer safe.” Ryan admits.
“What is going on though?” I ask exasperated. “Ry, I can take care of myself, I’ll take extra precaution, I’ll get security guards; please just don’t send me back to the US.”
“I’m sorry Soph, this isn’t up for argument.”
I purse my lips and looks down, “Ok, let’s go home.” I don’t look at him or Zayn, I just walk away.

“Are you ready?”
“No.” I reply flatly.
“This is for the best.”
“Yea.” I reply.
“Once you get back home, you’re not even gonna think about coming back here.”
“Sure.”
“Fuck Sophia! Cut that monosyllabic rubbish answers!” he shouts.
I look at him, anger seeping through my eyes, “What the hell do you want me to say Ry? Huh! I am not happy about this whole situation. Back ‘home’ is worse. At least here I had some people with me, I didn’t feel abandoned! What do I have waiting for me over there? Please tell me! Nothing!”
He looks down at the suitcases, “It’s for the best.”
“Keep telling yourself that Ryan; hope that lets you sleep at night.” I remark. We walk out to his car and drive to the airport in silence. We get out and walk to the check in counter.
“Did you say goodbye to your…boyfriend?”
“No, not that it really matters.” we go through the whole procedure until they call my flight. I look at Ryan and hug him, “I know I am acting childish right now but I want you to know that I love you; I’m gonna miss you a lot. Please visit me as much as you can.” we pull apart and I look around.
“I don’t think he’s coming.” I hear Ryan mumble.
“I know.” I pick up my bag and head to the airplane. I look back once more; hoping that Zayn will come.
Zayn’s POV
“You have to go Zayn!”
“What does it matter now lads, she’s leaving and never coming back! It’s useless.” I remark.
“No it’s not. You love her, don’t let her leave without saying it one last time to her.” Danielle tells me.
“No, it will only make this all worse. I need to-”
“So you don’t love her.”
“Fuck! I do, can’t you all see what this is doing to me.” I yell.
“What about her. How do you think she is feeling?” Niall gets up and looks at me, “You owe it to yourself and her Zayn; go say goodbye to her.”
Twenty minutes later I am at the airport racing against time. I walk through the current of people against me, trying hard to get through them as quickly as possible. I see Ryan and I run to him. “Where is…”
“I’m sorry, she’s gone.”
My heart stops as I walk to the window and see the plane depart. “Sophia…”
Sophia’s POV
I close my eyes but tears form either way. Don’t cry, this is for the best. He didn’t want to say goodbye, and I understand that. My heart tightens in my chest and I let out a stiffled breath, trying to stay calm. I look out the window, “I will always love you Zayn Malik.” I take out the letter he gave me yesterday and hold it to my chest. Why did it have to end like this?
