A/N - Sorry this took so long to upload i've been having internet problems but here it is Part 13 of the Choice :)
Troyes POV
The walk from Zoe's room to our room was the longest and most tense 10 seconds of my life, it stretched over what felt like years. I can't believe that my first ever proper relationship is about to come to an end before it ever really started."Troye"
"I honestly don't know what to say" I say tears threatening to fall
"Look, I'm sure we can sort this whole thing out, I'm sure Zoe has just got her wires crossed, it's all going to be okay just tell me what happened" He says reaching out and taking my hand.
"Okay, technically it's true, me and Tyler did kiss but it's not like I wanted it he kissed me Con okay, he kissed me and I pushed him away and that's why I was upset earlier, I'm so sorry I should have told you straight away rather than lying and having you find out like this" I ramble at him
"Okay that's a lot to take in, you're right you should have been the one to tell me and we maybe need to speak to Zoe now and clear the whole thing up before she tries ruining you name again" He says laughing
"Wait, you believe me! Like we're not gonna argue over this" I say suprised
"Of course I believe you Troye, I trust you... I always have" He says a smile forming on his face "Now come on let's go sort this thing out with Zoe he says grabbing my hand and leading me to the door
Zoe's POV
I feel terrible, I shouldn't have told Connor like that, I should've waited till it was just me and him and told him gently rather than yelling it at him in a room full of his closest friends, ughhh it's day one of the holiday and already it's going to be awkward. Everyone's still in my room but it's awkwardly silent
"Hey Zo, how did you know? you know about Troye cheating" Marcus asks breaking the silence"Well umm.. I saw Tyler kiss him earlier and then I asked him and he spouted some lie about Tyler kissing him and that he pushed Tyler away but I didn't believe him" I reply
"No offence Zo, but did you see the whole thing go down or did you just see the kiss because otherwise how would you know Troye was lying?" Jim now asks
"Well.. I don't I suppose, but how can you all defend a cheat? I know what I saw" I reply defensively
"Listen Zoe, to me it just sounds like you got the wrong end of the stick and then quickly reacted maybe Troye was telling the truth, and if it's true you've kind of ruined their relationship for no reason" Joe says
As I'm about to reply the door swings open and in walks Connor and Troye hand in hand.
"what is going on! Con he cheated!" I exclaim as they walk further into the room, Troye looking rather sheepish
"Look Zoe, I'd just like to clear something up. T didn't cheat on me, Tyler kissed him and he pushed Tyler away, that's the honest truth and I don't want to hear anymore of you lies about him okay" Connor says beginning to get annoyed
"Oh, I thought I was protecting you Connor I'm sorry. And Troye i'm sorry for not believing you and accusing you of cheating can you forgive me?" I ask reaching out my hands for a hug
"Yeah okay we forgive you" they say almost in unison. I giggle as they envelop me in a hug.
Tyler's POV
I know they're all having a "gathering" why would they not invite me? yes i'm not talking to Connor or Troye but all my other friends are there and I should have been invited. Coming on this holiday was a mistake. I haven't unpacked yet I don't see the point, i'm going home, i'm clearly not welcome here.I grab a napkin next to kettle and write a note
"Hey, if anyone cares i'm going home, clearly i'm not welcome and you can all go screw yourselves, I thought our friendships meant more"
I get my suitcase and leave my hotel room, slide the note under Troye and Connors hotel room door and head for the airport.
