The Future Of Us- Zalfie

6.

*Louise's POV*

As soon as Zoe saw the guy, she tensed up. She had never told me about him, so I was confused about what was going on.

The boy looked as if he was sorry, but for what reason is something I didn't know.

I saw Zoe who looked as if she was going to burst into tears.

"Zoe, who is this?" I whispered.

"Henry."

As soon as she said his name, something sparked inside me, but I still couldn't remember what he had done. Done something so bad that made Zoe almost cry.

Alfie was now standing beside Zoe and rubbing circles in her back. Joe was there too.

"Hey, Zo." Henry said.

"You don't have the right to call me, Zo, you jerk face."

"Okay, sorry, Zoe. First of all, I'm sorry. For everything. I needed to talk to you."

"Okay then talk." I had never ever seen Zoe this angry ever. This side of Zoe was something I had never seen.

"In private. Please, Zoe."

"I'm not going anywhere with you, you asshole."

Henry looked at Alfie,"Who's this guy?"

"He's my boyfriend, Alfie. Problem?"

"Yes. A very big problem."

"Oh, Henry. Stop acting as if you're my dad! You don't own me, I can choose what I want to do. I can date whichever guy I want to date."

Then, like a domino falling, causing other dominoes to fall everything came in place when I remembered that talk with Zoe.

*Flashback*

Summer was finally here. I couldn't wait for all the parties, and even my birthday! Finally 10th grade was over!

[Louise's birthday is on 23rd July for this story]

I was logging onto my Facebook when my phone started ringing. I saw the caller ID, Zoe.

"Hey, Zozee! Wassup?"

I heard her crying.

"I'm on my way, Zoe. Just give me 5 minutes."

I put on the shoes I found the quickest, a pair of slippers. I had no makeup, but right now that was the least of my worries.

I went down the stairs and my mum saw me. "Where you off to?"

"Zoe's. Something's happened, I think. She was crying when she called me."

My mum nodded and it was okay if I stayed at her place for that day.

I quickly took my car out of my garage, and rushed to Zoe's place.

As soon as I reached, I took out her house keys from my purse and opened the door.

I saw Tracey in the kitchen. She smiled when she saw me. I smiled back and ran up to Zoe's room.

*will contain a little abuse below! I'll put another sign when it has ended :)*

I saw Zoe crying on her bed, her breathing not normal.

"Zoe, calm down. Breath a little slowly." I say.
