She's Not Afraid (1D)

Just A Temporary Thing

**Sophie'sPOV**

We said goodbye to everyone shortly after. I gave Louis a huge hug, wrapping my arms around his neck.

"It will be okay" I whispered into his ear, before pulling away. They all waved goodbye as we walked down the street. Zayn lived quite far away but none of us were sober enough to drive so we had no choice but to walk.

"Perrie's not going to be around tonight" Zayn broke the silence.

"Why?" Harry asked, squeezing my hand gently.

"Reasons" He shrugged, pulling out his phone and tapping away at the keys.

Today just kept replaying itself in my mind, making me feel ill. I thought the drink would make me forget it all, but obviously I wasn't drunk enough. Knowing I had to start work tomorrow, I had resisted the temptation of buying more drink. But it was becoming harder as the memories kept playing in my head.

Stepping up onto the porch, I fiddled with my fingers as Zayn unlocked the door. As soon as the door was open, I barged past both the boys, trudging into the apartment. Instantly heading towards the kitchen.

"Soph, I was going to order Chinese if you wanted that?" I heard Zayn's voice echo around the room.

My eyes widened as I spotted the Vodka bottle sat on the counter. I licked my lips, clutching the glass bottle. Seriously, I was like some alcohol crazed freak, but the memories were just to much to bare.

Zayn and Harry marched into the room, taking one look at me Zayn snatched the bottle from my hand. I looked at him with angry eyes. "Give that back" I growled, stepping towards him.

"I can't its Perrie's" He mumbled, his eyes full of hurt as the words Perrie left his mouth.

The anger left my body, leaving me emotionless as I stared into Zayn's eyes. I could see the hurt flooding through them. He slammed the bottle onto the table, sitting down at the breakfast bar. Rubbing his eyes. I turned to look at Harry who bit his lip, shrugging his shoulders. I looked back to Zayn, sitting down on the stool besides him.

"Whats wrong?" I whimpered, reaching an arm around him.

I heard quiet sobs escaping his lips as he looked up at me. "Nothing, don't worry about it squirt" He grinned, but I could still hear the pain in his voice. "I'll order the chinese, make yourselves at home"

"Already on it" Harry chuckled, jumping onto the sofa. Giggling I jumped on next to him, resting my head on his arm as he wrapped it around my shoulder.

Grabbing the remote I turned the tv on, switching it onto the music channel. A boyband that I so recognised appeared on the screen making me grin. Harry, Niall, Zayn, Liam and Louis pranced around on stage infront of many screaming girls. I never realised how popular our boys really were.

I could feel Harry staring at me as I fixed my focus on the tv, watching all those screaming girls that were dying for the chance to even speak to the guys I spend basically everyday with. I watched as Harry and Louis began to blow kisses at fans. I looked up at Harry who's eyes were on me, he grinned as I smiled at him.

"Your fans really love you" I sighed, looking back at the tv.

"And I love them, they are what got me here today. If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't of been with the boys. If I wasn't with the boys I wouldn't of met Niall" He began to drag his fingers through my hair "If I hadn't of met Niall, I wouldn't of been in Nando's the other week" His voice softened as I looked up at him. "If I wasn't in nandos I wouldn't of met you" He began to lean in slowly, me copying him. Our lips crashed together as he stroked my hair out of my face.
