Love Complications Book 1

Chapter 18

Piper P.O.V

I hear the doorbell go as I wake up. I slowly get up, go to the bathroom brush my teeth and wash my face.

I text Alyssa to let her know I'm ok somehow I managed to sleep through the whole day. I go downstairs and find Zack wet and in his shorts, sitting on the sofa eating a slice of pizza. I walk in and take a slice and join him.

"Hey." I take a bite out of my slice as I make conversation with him.

"Finally up?" He laughs as he switches tv shows.

"It's been a long night believe me." I say confidently finishing my slice.

"Ditto." He replies.

It then dawns on me, his breakup with Megan.

"Fuck Zack I totally forgot." I sit up and grab another slice.

"How was the break up?" I ask sympathetically.

"Fine." He replies quietly.

"Fine that's it? Some details please." He looks at me for a second.

Shit I hope he doesn't think I'm being nosy.

"Erm.. just need my head turned off from my own drama." I add in hope.

He brushes the crumbs of his hands.

"Took her upstairs at the party and sat her down told her I wanted to end it I was falling for someone else."

"Ohhh that must of hurt." I pat his thigh.

"How did she take it?" I ask worryingly.

"She was actual kinda okay about it she appreciated it the honesty like you said but she did cry and she told me to leave her for a while and give her some space."

I nod.

"Poor girl."

"Did you drop her home?" He shakes his head.

"She wanted to be alone. I did ask but she said she would be fine and I left her."

He looks down a little upset.

"It's one of the shittiest things ever but you did good your growing up." 

I smile and hug him. He hugs me back.

"Let's cheer you up." I say smiling.

I want to forget my own problems for a while and this could also help Zack, it was the least I could do.

"Let's go out? Maybe have some fun?"

He looks at me.

"It's fine don't worry, I'm not taking no for an answer."

I stand up and put my hands on my hips.

"Chop chop."

I say clapping my hands.

"Fine." He slowly gets up.

"Your paying." He says as we both climb the stairs to go to our rooms and change.

"Such a gentleman."

I laugh as I roll my eyes.

15 minutes later I'm wearing a grey winter jumper, jeans and white trainers, my hair up in a messy bun and I have a small nude bag. I walk down to meet Zack whose wearing black jeans, a white t-shirt and a green jacket. Within minutes we are on his motorcycle and on our way to the movies.
