ALFIE'S POV
I met Zoe at the foot of the London Eye. It was an early Saturday morning and Zoe, Joe, Jim,Tanya and I decided to meet up in London. Me and Zoe decided to meet Jim and Tanya at a small Bistro at 12:15. Joe was joining us later, he had to film a video with Caspar before he went back to Africa to meet family. I saw her. Zoe. Running up to me with her arms outstretched and a huge smile on her face.
"Alfieeeeee!" She shouted. I lifted her at her waist so her feet were far off the ground. She plonked back down on the pavement.
"Hello little one"I said, I suddenly found myself staring into her eyes.
"Alfie?" Zoe said, immediately snapping me out of my daze.
"Sorry, i didn't mean to um......it wasn't ......" I was now blushing, god Alfie, man up. Zoe giggled.
"Don't worry about it" she smiled. My heart melted. We walked down the pavement slowly until we saw Tanya and Jim. Zoe ran as fast as her little legs would carry her down to Tanya. I jogged behind her to Jim. We had a good old fashioned bro hug whilst the girls squeezed and hugged continually. We walked into the small Bistro. The walls were lined with photos of (what I thought was) family photos and Bistro history. We ordered our drinks first, still deciding what we wanted to eat.
"Hi guys what can I get you?" the waitress greeted us. She had ombré style hair like Zoe but it was a lot shorter.
"Can I have a diet Pepsi please?" Zoe asked politely. The waitress wrote vigorously on her small, hand sized notepad.
"A coke please" I said,
"Same here," Jim said, Tanya was still deciding. She was defiantly going to choose something posh like tea or coffee.
"Sorry guys I didn't realize you were waiting for me! Ummm..... I'll have a peppermint tea." Tan said finally. The waitress smiled at us and walked off towards the kitchen

Jim's POV
When our drinks arrived the waitress asked us if we were ready to order any food. I noticed the two girls were to busy nattering so I turned to the waitress, taking matters into my own hands saying,
"Sorry no, the girls are being a bit indecisive," the waitress giggled and replied,
"That's fine sir, call me over when you are ready to order." Then she walked off. I turned back around to face the others when I noticed that Alfie had left and so had Tanya.
"Where's Alfie and Tanya?" I asked Zoe.
"O umm... We were messing around about saying Alfie had a crush on me and I think he thought we were being serious. He walked off saying he needed the loo and Tanya rushed on after him. I feel so guilty Jim!" Zoe confessed. I felt so bad for her but at the same time I really wanted to go and see if Alfie was ok but I couldn't leave Zoe. I saw Tanya out the corner of my eye and turned to face her, Alfie was trailing behind her.
"You ok mate?" I asked him, concerned.
"Yer, did Zoe tell you?" He chuckled.
"Yer..... Haha" I laughed back. We ordered our food soon after and had a good old gossip. I hadn't seen Alfie or Zoe for so long, neither had Tan so we had a lot to catch up on. I had noticed that Alfie was almost staring at Zoe. I nudged him in the ribs softly. But not so softly he thought it was an accident. He looked at me immediately. Still faced him I motioned my head toward Zoe just slightly. A smile had started to creep across his face. He had a crush on Zoe!

Zoe's POV
I was sitting at my desk editing my new video on my MacBook when I heard a knock at my front door. I jumped slightly at this unexpected noise then got up to go and see who it was. I opened my white front door to see a letter and a bouquet of flowers on the step outside my house. I picked them up and walked back inside. I grabbed a vase for the flowers and filled it with water. The handwriting on the envelope of the letter seemed familiar but I wasn't sure where I had seen it. I opened the letter carefully, it read:
Dear Zoe,
I am sure by now you have realised my ongoing affection for you. Your warm smile, your glowing eyes and your long flowing hair. I love everything about you. I have had feelings for you ever since I saw you 3 years ago. I cannot face it any longer. I am in love with you Zoe Sugg. Meet me at Brighton peer tonight at 6pm?
Love,
Alfie Deyes xxx

Zoe's POV
I got out of the shower and grabbed my towel. I opened the door ever so slightly, making sure that there wasn't anyone who could see me in only a towel. There wasn't anyone there so I legged it to my room. I put my hair straighteners on to heat up whilst I dried my hair. Two hours later I was ready to go and meet Alfie. I was sooooo nervous, I had never been alone, one on one with Alfie.
I grabbed my keys from the hanger by the front door for my Mini Cooper and shouted up the stairs to Joe,
"I'm going now Joe!". I waited for a response. Nothing.
"Joe?!" I yelled again. I started to become slightly worried now, Joe always plays tricks on me but this didn't seem up his alley.
"Joe this isn't funny!"

"BOO!"
"AHHHH!"
"Joe! You meany! Right I'm leaving now ok?"
"Ooooo Zoe and Alfie sitting in a tree K.I.S.S.I.N.G....." Joe blabbed on, I laughed at him and left the house. I unlocked the car, flung my bags onto the passenger seat and fired up the engine. I pulled out of the drive way and headed toward Brighton. I knew my way like the back of my hand.
