Yes She's Yours (z.m)

Chapter 26

(Leah's P.O.V.)

I was in Washington, D.C visiting one of my bestest friends Alexandra when I ran into Harry. Since it was my first time in D.C Alexandra decided to take Brooklyn and I sightseeing. The Lincoln Memorial was last on our list of places and that exactly where we ran into Harry. Currently, Alex, Brooklyn, and I sitting in the back of a taxi on the way back to her flat.

Harry had given me specific information for the concert that he and Brooklyn practically begged me to go. I was to get there an hour before the show which started at 7, and go in through the back entrance, telling the guards my name.

Its currently 3 so we had time.

Alexandra and I have been friends since after Zayn left for X-Factor. She was with me through a lot but before I had Brooklyn she moved to America. Usually she comes to the UK to visit me but I decided to go visit her for the first time. Grace had a photo-shoot so she should be coming in right now.

"When Grace gets here, I have something big to tell you guys." Alex says breaking me from my thoughts.

I turn to look at her, staring at her blankly before I realize what she said. I nod and she looks at me weirdly but doesn't say anything. Brooklyn was sitting on my lap, staring out the window as the light rain patters on the window.

I look out the window taking in all the city. It's beautiful.

The taxi stops in front of her flat complex. I open the door, getting out holding Brooklyn. She puts her head in my neck as I pull up the hood of her jumper. I close the taxi door and walk over to the building, standing and waiting for Alex as she pays the bill.

When she walks over to me, we walk into the building. As we get to the lift, Alex's phone starts ringing. She puts in a code for the lift and pulls her phone out answering the call.

I space out as we walk into the lift. All I can think about is tonight.

Will Zayn be mad? Well that's a stupid question, of course he will.

What will I say to him? I'm not still mad at him, he just pissed me off. I have every right to keep Brooklyn from him, he didn't know about her until a couple months ago. I mean the one time that he's in London he fucks shit up. It's his childish choices that got him in this position. It's simple I will not be disrespected by him.

I am yet again broken from my thought as Alex repeats my name, as she is standing out of the lift and on her floor, holding the lift doors open for me. The phone still to her ear, "You okay, Le?" she asks her face showing concern.

I nod at her, giving a small smile. I step out of the lift and start walking to her door. She takes out her key and unlocks her door, letting me talk in first. Brooklyn had fallen asleep on my shoulder so when I walk into the flat, I start walking to the room that Brooklyn and I were staying in.

I lay Brooklyn on the king size bed. I lean down and place a kiss on her forehead, pulling the blanket up on her. I walk away from the bed and to the door. I walk out of the room, closing the door behind me.

I take a deep breath, walking down the hall into the living room where Alex is sitting on the couch watching the telly.

I sit down on the love seat across from her. "Are you sure you're okay?" she asks me taking her eyes off the telly.

"Yeah. Just had a lot on my mind. I just don't think I'm ready to talk to Zayn just yet." I reply, looking at her. "Well if you're not ready then tell him that, you don't have to talk to him if you don't want to. Especially, if he's going to a dick like last time. This is about Brooklyn, not you and him remember that." She says.

I let her words sink in, she's right. Of course she is. "You amazing you know that right" I say smiling at her.

"I've been told so" she saying laughing

"Oh, I talked to Grace, she's on the way. The bunny got a rental." She says rolling her eyes

I give her a confused look. What the hell is that?

"Oh! Sorry, American words. Car hire" she says after seeing my face

I nod. These Americans and their weird words, I will never understand

We sit in silence watching the telly, when a knock on the sounds through the apartment. Alex jumps up and runs to the door. I hear Grace and the door shut before I hear nothing. Curious I walk over to the door. Only to see them snogging against the wall.

"aww. Come on guys! Not this again." I complain

See, Grace and Alex had this little fling a while back. But they are both interested in both men and women so it didn't work out. Very confusing if you ask me

They pull away and Alex smirks at me and Grace blushes. "Oh come on, I haven't seen her in forever I have the right" she exclaimed.

"Bullshit"

They laugh. I roll my eyes grabbing Graces bags and taking them to Alex's room. When I return to the living room they are talking.

"Where's my baby?" Grace says

I roll my eyes at her yet again. " Sleep and that is my baby not yours bitch"

She childishly sticks her tongue out at me. I sit down on my previous seat.

"Okay, as you all know. I have something to talk to you guys about." Alex starts

Grace and I nod.

"Well, I just wanted to ask you guys if you know in good flats for a low price near you" she says smiling at us.

Why would she? Holy shit!

"Wait I don't get it why would you want to know that?" Grace questions genuinely confused

"Are you serious?! Like are you really moving back?" I ask, getting excited

Realization dawns on Grace before she is grinning and hugging Alex.

"Yea. My job has an opening over there and I miss it there. America is not the same as London. It's my home, away from Home. Plus, I'm an adult now so I can leave. It was my parents the brought me here in the first place." She explains.

"omg!!!" I squeal as I get up and hug her.

"You can stay at my house until you're settled. You can just take Francisco's room." I say too excited to comprehend

"Oh speaking of this Francisco guy. What's up with him?" Alex ask as we pull away from the hug

"Oh god. It's nothing. Do we really have to talk about this, you just told us something big. Let's drink or something" I suggest, getting up and going to the kitchen.

I go into the cabinet and grab three wine glasses. "Lex! Where's your wine?" I call. I turn around to see Grace and Alex, walking into the kitchen. Alex goes into the fridge and grabs a bottle of wine. She takes out the cork and starts pouring it into the glasses.

"You're not getting away easy. We are going to talk about him. Now" Alex demands.

So with that we drink wine and talk about Francisco. We talk about Francisco for a while before we have to start getting ready for The concert.

I just want to thank you guys for the 20k it really means like a lot to me.I really love you guys. Thank you so much.*kisses everyone's cheek* Until next time!!!!! Picture somewhere
