I went to the kitchen and got a bag of ice for Zayn's nose (which I accidentally hit playing Twister). I gave it to him and went back to the kitchen to get a glass of water for myself. When I was heading back to the living room, Hayley appeared.

Alex: Is he okay? (I put the glass on the counter.)

Hayley: You're fucking stupid, okay?

A: Excuse me?

H: You're an idiot.

A: I know I hit Zayn by accident but you don't have to insult me. I already apologized.

H: You piece of shit, this isn't about Zayn's nose.

A: (crossing my arms) Then what is it about?

H: Isn't it obvious? Zayn's all over you and you just ignore him.

A: Well maybe cos he's with you?

H: Which makes you even stupider. (What?!) If he was all over me I wouldn't ignore him the way you do.

Why is she attacking me all of a sudden? What did I do to her? I was about to leave but she stopped me.

H: Why wouldn't you want to be with him? He's all a girl could ask for. He's hot, rich, famous, he's got it all.

A: So you're only interested in him cos he's famous.

H: Aren't you?

A: No! I met Zayn cos he's famous but if I had met him before, I'd still love to be with him. Like you said, he's got all a girl could ask for but not cos he's rich or famous. Zayn's got a great heart and he treats everyone with respect and kindness. He worries about everyone else before himself. I don't love him cos he's Zayn Malik from One Direction, I love him cos he's simply Zayn. I could care less about his money. To be honest, I think you're lucky to have a guy like Zayn as your boyfriend. You'll never find someone like him...

H: Yes I can. There's tons of other guys richer and hotter than him.

A: Maybe but they'll never be like him. He's one in a million.

H: That's a cliché and it makes you look idiotic.

A: I'll tell you what's idiotic! You are! You're using Zayn for the fame! You clearly don't see the great heart he has! You have a guy that's worth much more than all the money you'll ever have in your life! Yes, I love Zayn but more than being jealous, I pity you cos you're nothing more than a gold-digger! There are much more important things in life than money and fame!

H: You done? My ears are starting to bleed.

A: Yes, you can get the fuck out of my house. Now!

She left and I stood there a few seconds taking in what I just said. That certainly was intense but I had to let it out. I turn around and see Zayn standing there, smirking.

Zayn: I couldn't have said it better myself.

I didn't say anything and just walked out of my own house. I walked for a while till I got to Starbucks. I bought a coffee and sat down. I totally forgot that Zayn and the guys were there too.

XxX: You can run away but I'll always find you.

I look up and see Zayn.

A: I never asked you to.

Z: That was nice...What you said back there. (He sat in front of me)

A: I just hate gold-diggers. (I took a sip of coffee)

Z: I'm glad you feel that way.

A: I lied. (I look at him) I told you I only have feelings for you but as a friend.
