Alfie's POV
Today was the day that I was going to surprise Zoe. After days of careful planning and many phone calls with Louise and Joe I had finally plucked up the courage to go and speak to Zoe. I know knew what she needed, she didn't need me to be her boyfriend yet she needed to trust me and she needed to call the shots but I was always going to be there whatever she wanted. I had woke up very early and I was now on the train to Bath station where Joe was going to pick me up from. I was so nervous as Zoe hadn't spoke to me since the party and I had sent her many texts each one was ignored. Perhaps she had realised that I wasn't worth it and someone like Jack or Caspar was what she wanted after all she was way out of my league. My phone buzzed notifying me that I had a new text from Louise. I had told her what I was planning to do today and she had been very supportive.
"Good Luck today Alf! Everything will go perfectly I promise you, like I said before you two are always going to end up together. I can't loose my two best babysitters! Lots of Love, Lou x" I smiled as I read the message, she always knew what to say to make me feel better and perhaps she was right maybe we were meant to be? Just as I finished replying the train pulled into the station I picked up my bag and walked of the train ready to find Joe and try and sort everything out.
Zoe's POV
I had been editing my new video all morning and I was now sat in bed lazily watching a film. I was still a mess, my thoughts were all over the place and I hadn't bothered with my appearance at all. I frowned in confusion as I heard Joe's car pull into the drive he was supposed to be at work, I continued to watch the film and thought nothing of it. I groaned as I heard a knock at the door. I stumbled downstairs and began to open the door. "god Joe you've got your own k-" I stopped as I saw who was actually at the door. It wasn't Joe at all it was Alfie who was standing at my door clutching his bag staring up at me.
"Look Zo, I know that I'm probably the last person that you want to see right now but please hear me out" Alfie said with a worried look on his face.
"Okay, come in" I said pushing the door open. Alfie followed me upstairs and into my bedroom, we both sat on my bed and I waited for him to begin the conversation that was probably going to be pretty intense.
"Okay first of all I want to apologise for kissing you. I thought maybe that's what you wanted and now I know it wasn't and perhaps you weren't ready for it. All I want to say is that I'm so sorry and I don't know if the possibility of us is something that you want in the future and we went too fast or perhaps you just don't like me at all and you want someone like Jack or Caspar, I understand Zo whatever way but I can't lose you. Please just tell me what you want." Alfie said as he looked straight at me, it was almost as though he had set my mind straight for me I could see clearly what I wanted and I needed to tell him.
"First of all Alf I should be the one apologising not you, I ran away from my feelings and I messed everything up. What was going on between me and you I really liked it and when you kissed me it scared me because of what happened in my last relationship and I'm not saying that I don't want us to happen in the future but I can't do it now, I liked how everything was before we kissed and I've missed you so much that it made me realise that I can't lose you but please don't rule out the thought of me and you being more than friends because you are what I want not Caspar or Jack but I just don't want if now. I know that's really selfish of me and I'm really sorry Alfie" I replied as my eyes filled with tears, seeing him had made me realise how much I had actually missed him. I looked at him awaiting his reaction but he didn't say anything, he simply wrapped his arms around me and held me close just like he had done a few weeks ago. I rested my head in the crook of his neck and smiled because this what was I needed right now, I just needed Alfie to be there for me.
"I understand Zo, okay please don't be upset because I'll wait for you. I'm always going to be here and I'm not going anywhere I promise" He said holding me tighter whispering in my ear.
I pulled away and clapped excitedly "So how do you wanna stay Alf?"
"I have to be back in London for work tomorrow morning so I'm getting the train early tomorrow, could I stay tonight?" He asked. I agreed that he could and we went downstairs to film another video with Joe that we had planned ages ago. It was hilarious to film and it made me so happy to see how well Joe and Alfie got along and how relaxed and normal everything seemed between me and Alfie. We were both content with being just friends for now.
Alfie's POV
An hour later and we were eating pizza and waiting for the video to upload. "I've got an idea Zo, lets do a YouNow show!" I said excitedly. Zoe agreed and we both tweeted the link to the live stream. I was slightly apprehensive as I knew the comments would be filled with 'Zalfie!' and I wasn't sure how Zoe would react especially because of last weeks events. We switched on the live stream and I greeted the viewers
"What's up guys" Zoe said mimicking me laughing.
"Zo, we're a minute in and you're already bullying me" I said fake pouting at her. I watched as the screen flashed with many comments. One caught my eye 'So happy to see you two back together' it said. I gave a shoutout to the person that had wrote it telling them that it had made my day.
"No me and Alfie aren't together we're just friends" Zoe said as she read the comment questioning our relationship status. I watched her as although she had a smile on her face, a flicker of disappointment also appeared on her face. I looked over and smiled at her in order to reassure her. Twenty minutes later and we closed down the live stream.
"I'm so tired" Zoe said yawning. I laughed at how cute she looked.
"Where am I going to sleep? I asked.
"Oh just sleep in my bed I'm too tired to prepare the spare room, is that okay?" Zoe replied.
"Yeah sure, course it is!" I said smiling at her.
I climbed into Zoe's bed beside her. I turned over so I was facing the wall, I wasn't quite sure how to react, would Zoe be comfortable with the way that we usually slept cuddled up to each other.
"Alf?"
"Yeah Zo?"
"Cuddle?" She said sleepily. I smiled and turned around so we were chest to chest. She rested her head against my chest and I wrapped my arms around her waist sighing happily. This was how it was meant to be, legs entangled, bodies intertwined, happy. Things were finally back to normal.
