Missing you & Not With You?

Alfie's Point Of View•
"Alfieeee, the Saccone-Joly's have asked that we should meet up sometime!!" Zoë exclaims bouncing up and down in the door frame. My self however, laying across the sofa. I patted the space next to me and she came and jumped on me. "We have too Alf" She smile. I can tell she's excited, she's been watching them for god knows how long and she adores them. "That's great little one," I said pulling her in for a cuddle. "We have too," she repeats. "They daily vlog little one" I said. She looked at me like I was an idiot. "well durh" She laughs. "Zoe, no one knows we are together." I say sadly. She cuddles in closer. "Sorry" she mutters. "You don't have to be sorry little one" I say lacing my fingers with hers. "I think some of my collage friends want to go clubbing tonight" I say. She looks up, "Sounds fun, you should go gorgeous" She smiles. "You were invited but, I know how you get so..." I said, she brought her lips to mine and kissed me softly. "I love you" She smiles. "I love you too little one" I say pulling her closer. "You can stay here tonight and catch up on Empire, you've missed a couple of episodes. I mean- well you don't have to stay here, you can go out, I don't mean to be contr- you have the option of staying here I don't mind" I stutter. Zoe kisses me again. "Don't worry about me gorgeous, I'll stay here if that's okay, and I will catch up on Empire" She smiles. I look into the bright blue eyes, I smile, at all the reasons why I fell in love with the girl sitting in front of me. She starts to talk about her next video and how she would like to use my camera because it's good picture, but I tune out. I look at all of her features, the way she could talk for hours about the things she loves. "Alfie? Are you listening?" She questions, snapping me out my daze. "Sorry, I was just trying to remember where my extra memory card was so you don't upload my video on to your laptop too" I recover. I could never say that I just spent the last two minutes dreaming about her. "Im going to get ready" I say pecking at her lips.

I jump in the shower and wash my hair, continuing to get out and dry my hair and get some clothes. I just simply went with a plain tee, and some skinny jeans and I rolled them up at the bottom. I chucked my Vans on and made my way to the front room. I walk out to see Zoë cuddled up in duvet watching Empire, just like she had said. "My taxi is here little one," I say bending down and kissing her lips. She pulls me in for another one and again, before I realise I have to go. I wave to her as I walk out the door.

A little bit into the night I go to the bathroom to text Zo.

Me•
Missing you millions. When I get in we can have cuddles in bed xxxxx

I waited for a reply. And I got one in a matter of seconds.

Little One💜•
Missing you too, now go have fun idiot and stop worrying about me xxxxx

I decided that I should do that.

As I walked through the door, I saw Zoë still on the sofa. But asleep. Empires latest episode was running and a Zoë asleep. I took off my shoes and bent down to her hight. "Little one," I whisper. "Zoe," I say again. I figured no matter how many times I whisper her name she isn't going to wake up. I stripped down to my boxers and climb behind her on the sofa, I wrapped my arms around her small body and pulled her close. "I love you little one. I love you so much."

I woke up looking at my clock, half five. Zoë had rested her had on mine and had draped one leg over my two. I felt so uncomfortable. I got up and picked Zoë up and walked towards my bedroom. I placed her on my side first so I could open the sheets on hers, after doing so, I swapped her onto her side. I got into mine and we returned to our position of cuddling. "Alf" Zoë whispered ever so slightly, "Yeah?" I questioned. "I love you too" She said cuddling me. "I really want to hang out with the Saccone-Jolys, but, I don't want people to get suspicious, nor do I want them to stop a vlog for us." I sighed, I knew she wouldn't let this go. "I'm sorry little one," I say. "You don't need to be sorry. Its both of us that made this decision. I love you and we can figure this out" I smile. "How was your night?" Making circles on my chest with her finger. "I missed you" I whispered kissing the top of her head. "That's not what I asked" She laughed. "It was okay, I didnt drink anything though, I wanted to remember coming home to you and cuddling" I smile. "Goodnight Alfred" She said, I could tell she's smiling. "Good night Zoe"
