A Twist of Fate

four.

sofie.

I am still stood bewildered when the boys come off sweating, glugging down their bottles of water.

"How did we do? Oh gosh, boys that was amazing!"

"Sofie?"

"Hm, yeah?"

"How did we do?"

"You were amazing, I'm proud of you guys." I smile.

"You okay Sof?" Luke asked, eyes wide in worry. Light blue darkening slightly in protective worry.

"Nothing- tired. Can you drive me home please?"

"Sorry, I was planning on going to Ashton's, all of us were."

"But how did you get here? Ashton gave me a lift-"

"I can give her a lift home." Michael waved his hand up which held a set of keys.

"You don't mind? Thanks mate, you're a life saver." Luke gives him a grin and I watch as the boys pile out after talking to the owner of the pub who wanted them back another time.

"So, I need your address." Michael smirks, twirling the keys around on his finger.

After a few minutes of glaring, I finally give in, telling him my address and following him into his car. He surprisingly opens the door for me, I thank him quietly, seating in his clean car.

"Right, I have no idea where you live so I need directions." He huffed, starting the ignition.

"I live near the Subway, it's literally just around the corner from there."

"Oh yeah, you work with Ashton." He let out a loud sarcastic laugh before parking in the car park.

"Thank you." I smile, getting out the car and running through the cold to my apartment complex.

I fish through my bag for my keys when realising I had forgotten them. I knock on the door and even press my ear to the door, but all I hear is silence. I knock loudly and again, nothing. I grab my phone, calling Bella and she finally answered.

"Hello?"

"Bella! Where are you?"

"Home..."

"Open the door!"

"No actually, I'm watching a movie with Gabriel!" She let out a small giggle.

"Bella! I'm locked outside!"

"Go spend the night with As- Gabriel stop!" She burst into a fit of giggles before the call ended.

michael.

I hit the steering wheel, staring out after where Sofie just ran in. A random surge of emotion slapped me in the face which left me bewildered to what it was. Jealousy?! Of what though? I start the ignition of the car but soon switch it off when I see Sofie run over.

"Thank god you're still here, can you drive me to Luke's, please?" I prepare myself to nod, to tell her yes, sure but a lie comes bubbling up my throat.

"I'm going back to mine, and Luke's with the other boys anyways. You can come to mine?" Okay, that was only partially a lie. They were altogether but I wasn't going back to mine.

The time she takes to get in the car, I text the boys telling the I was tired and heading straight home. I give her a small smirk as I begin driving to mine.

"This place is cleaner than I expected." Sofie laughed, kicking off her Doc Martens and making her way towards the sofa.
