-Escape-

Chapter 26

** Hey guys

So if you haven seen it yet, I have another that has recently gotten like 100 more reads.

I am going to ask you NOT to read it for my sake.

The only reason I haven’t deleted it is because then I would lose 70 something votes

I was having some issues so I worked them out in writing a horrible fanfic.

DON’T DO IT!!!

Your eyes will bleed.

If you are looking for a good fanfic, I have a couple in my list OR you can read my friend @graciemarsbar’s fanfic , Summer Love, that she is writing about me and our friend Tara.

and lastly, without further ado, here is your chapter 26

-Alex**

**ZAYN”S POV**

I want to tell her. But between Harry spiraling into depression and me myself having to get over the loss of Jade I never really got around to it.

Okay, I might be avoiding it just a little bit.

I know that I should tell her soon.

Rip it off like Band-Aid, quick and easy.

I stand outside our door making my decision before taking a deep breath and opening it.

She stands in one of my t-shirts with her blonde hair cascading down her back looking our the window

When I come in she turns her head so that her green eyes meet my brown ones.

Delilah has been a lot more careful with me since the day that I kissed her. I know that it must have been scary for her but she is my mate and she is bound to fall in love with me eventually.

“Hey,” I say with a smile.

She nods, smiles back, and then looks back out the window.

“What are you looking at?” I ask

“The leaves.” She comments, “They are turning orange. We don’t have many trees in New York.”

“Your from New York?” I ask stalling as much as possible.

She sighs. “Yeah, I ran away because I was having some… problems.”

“Problems?” I ask.

“I would rather not talk about it.” She mutters still staring out the window.

I take a deep breath. “Lilah there is something that I have been meaning to tell you. Yesterday…” I say trailing off.

She watched the leaved waiting for me to finish. When I leave her hanging she turns and looks at me.

“What happened yesterday?”

 I open my mouth to say something but I can’t bring myself to say it.

Your best friend burned to death in the middle of a vampire war and now Harry is becoming depressed.

“I-It’s Jade.” I finally say.

“She isn’t coming back?” she asks looking at her feet.

“Well-“

“I’m sorry.” She says looking up at me. “I know that you and Jade are friends and I just made an assumption before I got the whole story and put you in an awkward position.”
