Our Moments

chapter 76

Itzels pov
The days dragged , Nick had left to Australia for a photoshoot leaving me with nothing to do with a good 4-5 days . The occasional hair or makeup appointment for photo shoots comes along but nothing too bad. Zayn had took Alex last night and I am alone at home. I had already reorganized my whole house , cleaned it and showered . And yet, everyone was busy . Even my parents and siblings weren't home . I had literally nothing to do, so I did what was instinctual . I dragged my feet along the carpet to my room. Heading to my closet , I chose a pair of yoga pants , a Nike tank top , sweater , and my free runs. I changed quickly , went to the dresser and threw my hair up in a bun. I did my basic makeup routine , that consisted of foundation, blush and mascara. I grabbed my glasses , and phone and headed back downstairs . I quickly looked for my wallet and keys and headed to my car . I was going to stop by Valeria's to see if she wanted to go the gym with me . Don't get me wrong , I love my gym here at home but I just have been here for what seems forever and I didn't feel like staying . Within a few moments I was out of the door . I started making my way to Valeria's house . I was on Valeria's street when my phone started ringing . I answered it but parked quickly to see who it was . I took it out of my pocket , and saw it was Liam on FaceTime.
"Itzeeeeelllll!" I heard a familiar voice scream as I put the phone up to my face .
"Liammmmmmm" I said smiling .
Suddenly more figures started popping up on the screen .
> "Hello my love " Lou's voice rang in my ears .
"Hello my beautiful, how are you?" I asked as she was moved out of the shot .
"I'm fabulous my darling , how about you?" Louis said .
"Louis! " I screamed happily while laughing . I started making my way towards the door while I talked with the guys .
"How's everything love ?" Liam asked sincerely.
"Honestly , so boring without you guys. I miss you all so much " I said knocking on the door . The door was then pushed a little bit open . Wait.... Why was it open .
"What the fuck?" I said confused on why it was open .
"Hey what's up Itzel ?" I heard Harry's voice ring in my ears.
"Hey Harry - sorry I came to Valeria's and well the door is open . " just then it clicked . There was another car in the drive way beside mines and Valeria's . Zayn's . Wait why didn't I see that before? Suddenly my stomach dropped . I walked in slowly .
"Hello?" I echoed through the house . No response . I started hearing a blaring of music that came from the basement . I slowly started walking down and to my surprise was greeted by a shirtless zayn and a half naked Valeria .
"Sorry -" I started as a startled them , forgetting Harry was on the other line . I ended the call quickly so I wouldn't be questioned.
"It's just the door was open - but I'll get going" I said turning on my heals quickly.
"What hey no! Itzel come here - zayn came over because he needed someone to talk to ." Valeria said while a million questions started popping with my head.
"Well I wanted to see if you wanted to go to the gym but- I'll leave to give you two some privacy-" I started again .
"No Itzel stay . I'll make dinner for all three of us " I swear Valeria is going to get an earful later on, as I narrowed my eyes towards her .
"Itzel , babe , it's fine . Just stay ." Honestly at this point I don't know who I was more upset with . Valeria for having zayn over or just zayn in general . I nodded and my face dropped into my "bitch face " rest .
"Okay " I smiled sarcastically . Valeria went upstairs and I took my sweater off and placed it all in a corner , along with my keys and my phone . I turned my phone off and put a pair of boxing gloves on . I was stretching when I felt Zayn's gaze on me .
"Shouldn't you be ... I don't know.... Taking care of my son??" I asked . He laughed
"Yes I am but my mom and the girls wanted to take him to go see a movie and you out all people know how hard it is for me to go to the movies " he said in retaliation . I started punching the bag, first starting with jabs .
"Then shouldn't you be with your girlfriend ??" I asked bluntly .
"I could ask you the same ." He smirked . Fucking asshole . I hit the bag harder.
"Mines busy " I said
"Well so is mine.... And besides what if I wanted to be with you instead " he said stepping closer . I ignored him until he was directly behind the bag .
"Look, I don't wanna hurt you so please move away" I said he laughed at my response .
"You're angry with me ? Take it out come on" he said sliding in front of me .
"Zayn - I don't want to hit you - please move " I said keeping my calm as he kept his ground . He wouldn't budge .
"Okay fine , don't say I didn't warn you " I said as a moved so he was directly in front of me . He switched out his boxing gloves for targets instead .
"Alright babes let's see what you got " he said slyly. I mocked him as I started getting ready . I started throwing punches left and right .
"Damn whichever bitch gets you mad , has you all the way fucked up" he said laughing .
"That bitch is you" I said without thinking twice . He sucked in air making a noise
"Hurtful , but I know that's not true " he said laughing again . This guy was really pissing me off . I started hitting harder and harder , spacing out on what zayn was saying . He got distracted and I "accidentally" hit him in his gut. He fell to the floor as I stood in shock a little .
"Are you okay ?" I said crouching down to his level . He groaned in pain and I smirked a little .
"I told you ." I said triumphant . Suddenly he moved and attacked me , catching me off guard . My body on the floor right under him , he pinned me down . Wait when did this happen ?
"What the f-" I started confused .
"Oh babe you didn't think I would forget how to take you down did you ?" He said eyeing me . Suddenly Valeria came downstairs and was talking but stopped when she saw us and smirked a little .
I felt my cheeks get red but I tried hiding it .
"Off" I said pushing zayn off of me .
"As I was saying - I have to go to the store .. So let's go out to eat instead ?" She questioned . I didn't care where I was going I just needed some space away from zayn .
"You're welcome to get ready here" she said smiling leading me upstairs . Thank God for bringing my gym bag with me . I ran outside to my car and took it out . I had my basics in there and I just would ask Valeria if I could use an outfit and her makeup. I ran back inside and I thanked her as I made my way to her bathroom. No questions , thank God . I stripped quickly and hopped into the shower .

>As I put my undergarments on , a pair of shorts and a normal tee , I heard Valeria blow drying her hair . I cracked the door while covering my eyes .
"You decent ?" I said jokingly hearing her laughter fill my ears . I opened my eyes and headed towards her mirror .
"Do you mind if I use your makeup?" I asked a little sad I didn't have my own with me .
"Of course not " She said as she started doing her hair and I started my makeup .
I looked at her outfit she laid out in front of herself . Don't get me wrong I love dressing up but I'm more laid back with my fashion choices . I asked her about it but she dismissed it .
"So um - do you mind telling me what was happening downstairs ?" She said as I was applying bronzer under my jawline . I shrugged my shoulders a little , somewhat dismissing her , an awkward silence filling the room ."So I was face timing Harry earlier " I said to change the subject . My gaze shifted to her as she crossed her hands over her body uncomfortably .
"Oh really?" She asked .
"Yeah ... He told me how much he missed you " I said as she shifted again . I didn't really know how to interpret her body language because it was a mixture of things . She didn't answer and I was curious so I turned around and asked her a quick question
"Valeria be honest , did you invite him over ?" I asked thinking she was trying to get zayn and I to talk again . She turned around frustrated.
"I didn't even let him in ... Hell I didn't even open the door for him " she said moody . Damn it was just a question , chill .
I didn't even listen to her when she started talking again and then out of nowhere she caught me off guard.
"He was arguing with Perrie and wanna know why? Because he still loves you." I felt my whole body freeze as I let the brush fall out of my hands . Still I didn't respond .
"Fuck you told Harry didn't you?" She asked . Woah woah woah buddy making false accusations here .
"I -" I started but was cut off . She started yelling more and coming more towards me as I let her rant .
"Just because your relationship is shitty doesn't mean you have to fuck mines up" she said . I parted my mouth slightly . I love Valeria but did this bitch really just say that . I couldn't find the words to say as I started balling my fists . Before I could say anything , she walked out of the room just like the little drama queen she is . I ran behind her as she pushed passed zayn downstairs .
"Honey wanna say that a little louder ?" I asked sarcastically as I chased her down the stairs while she was mumbling . Zayn held me back .
"Woah woah woah - I'm gone for 10 minutes and you started fighting with her ?" I looked at zayn with furious eyes . I started hitting him and trying to slap him .
"This is all your fault ! I had nothing to do with this and then your loud dumbass had to say something! This is all your fault!" I said starting to tear up a little in defeat . I could tell that he didn't know if I was talking about this fight or our relationship in general .
"Itzel wanna talk?" He asked sympathetically.
"No , there is nothing to talk about . I'm going home " I said grabbing my belongings and heading outside while it was raining .
"Let me make sure you get home " he said heading to his car . I didn't even pay attention to him and started driving to my house . Within a few minutes of my drive it started raining and I mean hard . I quickly got home as safely as possible and ran into my house . Forgetting zayn was hot on my heels , I locked him out . He knocked hardly on the door to get my attention and I opened it for him , revealing him , resembling a sad puppy .
"Can I come in" he asked .
"I don't care" I said walking away from him and heading towards my kitchen . Grabbing my favorite wine bottle I headed upstairs to my room . Damn the words still hurt as if I got a new tattoo . It was painful to hear that , more like a sting when it came from your best friend and the fact that it's true was the worst part . I laid in bed not even having the strength to open the damn bottle . For a second I closed my eyes and let the tears fall freely . Sometimes I bottle my emotions up so much that I just explode sometimes . And this was my explosion . I felt the bed shift as more weight was added when zayn sat next to me and rubbed my back to soothe me .
"It's gonna be okay Itzel " he said making me cry a little harder .
"Zayn no it's not . " I said trying to calm myself down .
"Valeria said I tried fucking up her relationship because mine is fucked up and the more I think about it the more true it becomes - I - I don't want Alex growing up around that " I said crying even harder . By this point I was sitting crossed legged on my bed with Zayn's outstretched hand on my back .
"Itzel I can promise you now that you're relationship life is not fucked up at all" he said scooting closer to me .
"Easy for you to say , blondie waits on your hand and feet - and you don't have to worry about her leaving 24/7 and people just ugh " I started .
"Easy for me ?" He chuckled .
"Look " he said lifting up my chin .
"It's pretty fucked up when you have to face the fact that you lost the love of your life and now you have to accept the fact they are happier without you and that person loves someone else . So please explain to me the "easiness " in that." He said looking at me . God I felt he was staring into my soul.
