My Boyfriend's(?) Roommate

Chapter 41: Alone time with company

^Love them separately, but together? Nah, I'm with Alfie on this one!

~~~ 

Then we turned to see Zoe. Completely still, dead of emotion.

We walked to her, but she didn't move to face us, or even acknowledge us being there.

"What's wrong with me? Why is it that I ruin everything with my pointless idiotic feelings for Caspar!? I almost ruined our friendship by keeping the truth from you. Now I tell Alfie the truth and he hates me. What should I do?"

"I can't tell you what to do, it's up to you. But you should definitely apologise to Alfie when he's less mad. He was good to you, you should at least do that much for him."

To tell the truth I was torn. I really connected with Alfie today, that didn't change the twelve years of friendship me and Zoe shared, but honestly Zoe had wronged him. I felt bad for the guy. Two of my friends were heartbroken because of each other, so what could I say without offending the other party. I could tell he really did love Zoe, but it couldn't be helped if Zoe didn't love him back and loved Caspar.

"Hey, can I ask question?"

"Yeah."

"...Zo, do you really love Caspar?"

She sighed deeply "I never stopped loving him. I know he's your boyfriend, but I loved him first!"

Okay did Zoe just get snappy at me? But she did bring up a good point, I hadn't broken up with Caspar. Caspar might have guessed it though. I mean I literally fell into his apartment on top of Joe. Anyways that's next on the list!

"No need to get territorial! I'll have you know my boyfriend is Joe, not Caspar. You can have him. "

"My god Alfie's right, I am ridiculous, I'm acting like some crazed stalker-girlfriend! To you as well, my best friend!"

I laughed a bit "Love makes you do crazy things, I get it. Joe makes me an emotion wreck and a strangely forgiving person."

She smiled honestly "I'm glad you found Joe, even if you kissing my brother does still freak me out!"

"I want you to be happy too, like I am. If Caspar is what makes you happy and crazy at the same time, go get him!"

The truth: she deserved happiness.

No I wasn't trying to get alone time with Joe! But that would be an added bonus with my best friend's happiness. I sent Zoe off at the door, giving her a last good luck hug. Then I shut the door and turned round to see Joe smiling.

"You're good at handling her. You even managed to get the house to ourselves."

"Isn't it funny how things turn out?" I sent a smile back and spoke with an innocent tone, pretending to be unaware of what I had done.

"Well, well, what should we do now?" He looked at me with a suggestive smirk.

"I don't know you tell me." I said with as much sweetness as I could muster.

"Personally, I think we should head in that direction and go from there." He gestured towards my bedroom.

I was freaking out, I was dying, I was excited, but scared all at the same time. Luckily Joe led me by y hand, or else I would have had to say something to ruin things. He pulled me into the room and against him and then our lips locked. I shut the door behind me and we didn't come back out that night.
