Zoe's POV
I sat down on the sofa and pressed my side against Alfie's shoulder. I rested my head the side of his and peered at his laptop.
"Editing a Vlog are we?" I giggled as he threw his arm around me, pulling me into his chest.
"Being a huge distraction, are we," he joked back. I tried to wriggle free, pulling and pushing at his muscular arm. He wouldn't budge. He leant down and pecked my forehead.
"Why don't we go out?" I smiled. He looked me in the eye with a serious feel.
"I'm working!" He finally joked.
"Why don't we go and visit Joe?" I asked. Me and Joe needed to make friends sooner or later. Why not now?
"Nooo, I'm working," he repeated.
"But he's family, and I need to speak to him," I frowned.
"Fine!" Alfie said closing his laptop lid and releasing me from his arm.
"Grab your car keys then Mr!" I giggled, jumping up from the sofa and slipping on my plain ballet pumps.

We arrived at Joe's flat. It was beautiful, white, matte walls, an even mix of minimalist furniture. Very modern. A sudden flurry of nerves came over me.
"Alfie I can't," I said, stopping my knuckles before it tapped on the large wooden door.
"It's okay, I'm here," he said reassuringly. I felt his warm hand rub my shoulder. I blushed at Alfie's touch.

I nervously sighed, tapping my fist on the door three times.
knock, knock, knock...
No answer.
I tried again, tapping in the same way as before.
knock, knock, knock...
I heard a grunt of a man. I quickly let out a relived sigh. The door swung open and I was greeted by a very tired looking Joe.
"Zoe..." He said. He looked so go smacked, his jaw could've touched the ground.
"Joe," I replied smiling, I bounced on my tiptoes with the words.
"I don't want to talk Zoe..." He said, turning his back on the door.
"Joe please!" I pleaded, stopping the closing door with my arm, just as Joe went to slam it. I wasn't strong enough, the door closed with force on my arm, causing a searing pain to engulf my arm. I winced, pulling it away from the door. It closed fully, I heard a locking sound. Joe must really hate me. I felt tears cascade down my cheeks. I wanted him to give me a chance. I wanted to be a family again. I screamed as Alfie went to take my hand in his.
"Zoe, I'm sorry," he quickly said, moments after my sudden outburst of pain.
"I need to see a doctor," I cried, clutching onto Alfie wrist.
"I'll drive you, let's go." I wrapped my arm into Alfie's and turned away from the apartment. I got myself into the passenger seat of the car, clutching my arm for support. I turned back to see a sorry looking Joe, peering out of his living room window.
'Im sorry', He mouthed
