After we finished watching the first Harry Potter film we ordered pizza. While we waited for it to arrive we put on the second Harry Potter film. Zoe closed the gap between us and placed her head on my shoulder. In that moment everything was perfect. I knew we weren't back to normal yet but things were getting better.

20 minutes later there was a knock at the door. Zoe got up and made her way towards the door. I heard the front door open and the pizza delivery guy recalling our order. I expected Zoe to return soon but she didn't. I decided to go and see what was taking her so long. I stood up and walked towards the front door. As i walked around the corner i was surprised to see Zoe kissing the pizza guy. I knew we weren't together but this infuriated me.

"Zoe" i shouted.

"Alfie...help...m-me" she struggled to get the pizza guy off of her.

I ran towards them both and pulled him off of her. I turned him around so he was facing me and punched him in the face. He stumbled backwards out of the door, i slammed it and turned to face Zoe who was on the floor sobbing. I lowered myself onto the floor and embraced her in a hug. She placed her arms around my neck and cried into my shoulder.

"What's taking you so long?" Louise asked turning into the hallway. "chummy what happened?"

"That stupid pizza guy snogged her face off that's what happened" i shouted.

"Oh my god, i'm so sorry"

"It's ok i'm fine, Alfie saved me"

We both stood up and made our way back into the living room with the pizza. We resumed the same places on the sofa as before and opened up our pizza boxes. By the time the film had ended Zoe was fast asleep on my lap.

"Louise should i take Zoe to bed?" I asked.

"Yeah, she must have been exhausted. Me and Matt are going to bed too. Are you crashing on the sofa?"

"Yeah i'll get some blankets out of the cupboard"

"Night Alfie"

"Night Louise, night Matt"

"And Alfie..."

"Yeah?"

"She still loves you, don't forget that"

"I wont" i smile.

I scooped Zoe up in my arms and carried her to her room. I placed her carefully down on her bed and pulled her quilt on top of her. I gently kissed her forehead, she turned onto her side as i tiptoed out of her room.

"Night little one"

I grabbed a blanket from the cupboard and undressed until i was just in my boxers. I laid down on the sofa, bringing the blanket up to my chin. I thought for a while and couldn't believe how so much could have happened in one day.
