Can This Be True? { A Zalfie Fanfic }

Alfie

I talked to Zoe and Louise, and slowly but surely I started to feel a little bit better. The thing that had gone on at the party was slowly drifting to the back of my mind. It no longer bothered me. After a while Louise went to bed. I was so excited for the chance to be with Zoe alone, but my mind just blanked on what to say. We both just sat there very awkwardly not saying anything.

I kept looking at her though, hoping that she would turn and face me. Eventually she did and to my pleasure she started to lean in for a kiss. I didn't back away, but I didn't lean forward either. If she did this I wanted her to have full control. That was when the door opened, a very drunk Caspar walked in, and a very embarrassed Zoe scurried off to bed. I sighed, this was never going to happen was it?

I woke the next day, the sun shining through the slats of my blinds. I sat up and rubbed my eyes, they were slowly adjusting better to the harsh light. After my eyes stopped being all blurred up I noticed that there was someone else in my room. I jumped a bit and made a very unmanly sound. Then I saw that it was Zoe and I giggled. "Hello Ms. Suggggg," I said drawing out her last name.

She smiled at me and stood up, walking over to my bed. "Good morning Mr. Deyes. You had better get ready, we are filming with Jim and Tan today." Oh shit, I had forgotten about that. 

"Oh yes," I said as if I had remembered but I could tell that Zoe knew I was lying. She knew me too well. She skipped out of the room blowing a kiss to me. I was so confused! What was going on bewteen us. We had techincally not kissed but it felt as if something had changed after the party. Definitely something for the better.

After filiming with Jim and Tanya for about four hours we all decided to go out for a Costa. Louise was at my flat probably tidying up, writing blog posts, whatever things a Louise does. And I knew that Caspar was out of the house. Luckily, because he had a terrible hangover and would grumpy for the rest of the night. 

Once we got to the little shop, Zoe ordered two hot chocolates, one for me and one for her. Tnaya and Jim ordered some weird flavour of tea that they were really into lately. We sat down, and slid next to Zoe. I was about to say something when she shimmied out og the booth and towards the bathroom, Tanya followed her. Why did girls always go to the bathroom together?

After I knew that they were out of earshot I turned to Jim. He would know what to do in my situation. "So Jim mate," I said pausing, thinking through what I was going to ask. I still didn't know if I was just going to tell him about my true feelings for Zoe, or ask him how to deal with them. I decided on both.

"I think that maybe I kind of like Zoe as more than friends," I frowned at his reaction. A joyous and mistivous smile slid on to his face as if he had nothing something was up all along. I graoned, so this was how everyone was going to react. "Well I really like Zoe and I want to ask her out and tell her my true feelings, but well I'm scared."

Just then I heard footsteps behind me, I turned and saw Zoe. Then I heard Jim's voice, "I think you already have mate." 

Sorry it is so short, kind of just a filler chapter. I am excited to write the next few chapters. I have a good idea of where the story is going. As always, comment below what you thought of it! I will update tomorrow! Love you all! xxx
