I'll Love You For Always { A Zalfie Fanfic }

Zoe

It had been ages since I talked to Alfie, and a bit of it felt like my responsibility. I felt like I hadn't tried to make any effort to talk to Alfie at all. Of course, I had tried many times. Picked up the phone over and over again debating whether or not I should send him a message, always deciding that I couldn't do it. 

But today felt different, today I wanted to talk to Alfie. I wanted to hear his voice. I watched his videos to hear his voice, but that was different. And ever since recently he hadn't been the same. Some videos he seemed really down, whilst others he seemed so happy it was weird. 

I picked up the phone and dialed Alfie's number and let it ring for a bit, but just when he picked up and said hello I hung up. I couldn't do it, I couldn't talk to him. 

I could already feel the lump rising in my throat and my palms starting to sweat. My heartbeat speeding up. I set the phone down and moved over to the other side of the room so I wouldn't have to look at or think about it. 

I just couldn't talk to Alfie. 

Unforunately, he called me about a minute later. I knew it was him, I had set my phone so his ringtone was different from everyone else's. I don't know why I hadn't changed it back to the same as everyone elses. Actually I knew why I hadn't, because to me he wasn't the same as everyone else and he never would be. To me he was special, and that was why I loved him so much.
