Amoe (on hold)

Chapter three

Zoe's P.O.V

Ama's been out for ages, I wonder if she's ok?
I pull out my phone and click her Contact name and the phone starts to dial,
"Pick upppp" I mutter, fidgeting around in my seat,
"Hey, this is Ama, I can't talk right now, but I'll get back to you later- that's if I can be bothered- well, I guess that's it.. Feel free to leave a voicemail, I won't read it, but yeah... Bye!" Ama's voice mail spoke, and a buzz chimed,
"AMA PICK UP YOUR PHONE!" I whine, and then follow on to hanging up.

I look around the apartment aimlessly, what can I do to entertain myself while Ama's out?
Out the corner of my eye I spot the broom Ama used once as a prop when she went as a witch to a Halloween party, and I know exactly what I should do...

"I'M FLYING HIGGHHH DEFYING GRAVITY!" I sing, running round the downstairs of our home, riding the broom. When no ones watching I tend to have much more fun than when with others.

Ama's P.O.V

I sit down with Dan, and carry on talking to him,
"So, what do you do as a living?" Dan asks me,
"Well, I did work in Costa, till I was fired for being 'too depressing towards customers'" I quote, and Dan bursts out laughing, clapping as he does so,
"What about you?" I ask,
"Well, me and my flat mate Phil make YouTube videos and I have a channel called Danisnotonfire" Dan starts, "and we have a radio show together on BBC Radio 1"
I look at Dan unsteadily, he's lying to me, no way is he a BBC Radio 1 DJ,
"No really, what do you do?" I ask firmly,
"I'm being honest Ama, tune in 9:00pm on Mondays to listen" Dan grins,
"I'll believe you when I hear your voice" I smirk, taking a sip of my hot chocolate,
"So do you have a flat mate?" Dan asks,
and I nod,
"Yeah, her names Zoe and she's as clumsy as a paralysed giraffe with sticks for legs" I laugh, and Dan chuckles,
"So's Phil, he's so clumsy it's dangerous" Dan smiles, and I nod,
"It sounds like Phil and Zoe need to attend a Social awareness support group, where they teach you how to be safe around others" I grin, Dan spits out his drink laughing,
"Sorry!" He apologises, once he's got his breath back.

I feel my phone buzz in my pocket,
5 missed calls from Zoe..
"Shit" I mutter, imagining our apartment in ashes, and Zoe stood there outside holding an unbaked batch of cookies,
"Dan I'm sorry I have to go, thank you so much for the drink" I thank, panic setting in,
"It's fine, go, go!" Dan chuckles, taking a sip of his drink,
and I run out of Starbucks and into the streets of London,

Goodbye Dan...

Dan's P.O.V

I glance at the clock on the wall to see what the time is, Ama has just left, would it be to soon to text her if I leave Starbucks and get my phone? WAIT,
"AMA!" I shout, running out of Starbucks, I desperately scan the horizon, but Ama's not in sight,

I forgot to get her number!
"DAN YOU IDIOT!" I scream, banging my head against the wall, earning a few strange stares from passers by,
I'd just let the most beautiful girl walk out my life.

I amble down the road, back in the direction of my house, Ama's face was pressed into my brain, I'm such a fool, now I'll never get to talk to her again.
"Dan?" I hear someone shout, I look up and see Phil running down the road, a panicked expression over his face,
"Where've you been!?" Phil asks worried,
"Starbucks" I reply simply, walking straight past him, in the direction he came from,
"Dan!" Phil called,
"WHAT" I snap,
"What happened?" Phil comforts, coming over and patting me on the back, and I sigh,
"There was a girl" I start, but Phil interrupts,
"Can it wait till we get home? Sorry but my mum and dad are due any minute" Phil asks, and I nod before following him home.

Ama's P.O.V

I reach the top of our road, and spot no fire engines or smoke, but I feel an ambulance will be necessary, I've run to far to stay conscious,
As I dart towards the front door to my house, and fumble on my bag for my keys,
"Zoe I'm home!" I shout, using the last of my strength to drag myself up the stairs,
"Ama!" Zoe shouts happily, dashing out the living room,
"What's wrong!?" I pant, looking around for the disaster,
"Nothing, I was hungry so I called you" Zoe smiles, and I glare at her,
I left Dan? FOR ZOE

"ZOE!" I shout, tears building in my eyes,
"Ama, are you ok?" Zoe asks concerned, placing her hand on my back, which I swat away, and dash up to my room,
I pull out my plain canvas and oil paints, and pull out my phone,
"Danisnotonfire Danisnotonfire Danisnotonfire" I repeat, over and over again in my head,
I pull out my phone... I know exactly what to draw.

Zoe's P.O.V

I decided to wait till Ama was asleep, to check on her,
I'll just peep my head round the door and check everything's alright.

I creak open the door, and see Ama laying on the floor asleep, I silently creep in and cover her with a blanket.
I turn to leave the room when I notice a painting propped against the wall,

It's a boy...
