Caught In The Act

Chapter 7

I tipped my head back laughing at Harry trying to get me. It's been twenty minutes and he still hasn't gotten me.

"You are really bad at this, Haz." I teased him and he smirked.

"Am I?" He said evilly and spun me and Niall around then grabbed my by the waist and pulled me away. I couldn't help but laugh.

"Not fair!" I got out between laughs, Harry and Niall laughing with me.

"I haven't been skating since I was a little girl. I love it so much, but I just never had the time." I told them while catching my breath from laughing so hard. I wiped the happy tears from my eyes smiling at the boys.

"Aww, Em." Niall said giving me a big bear hug. Harry joined us seconds later.

"I love you guys." I smiled at them.

"We love you too." Harry said smiling.

***Zayn's P.O.V***

Where would I find Emily? Would she be at home? I don't think so. Think Zayn, think. Where would Emily want to go? Rock On Ice. I'm bound to find her there.

That's where I'm going to go. I need to talk to her. I owe her an explanation and she owes me time.

And that's just what I'll get. Whether she likes it or not.

***Emily's P.O.V.***

I skated back to the benches with Harry and Niall to get our skates off and sat down. Once I sat down, I start to untie the skates and put my boots back on. Then I got up and brought the skates back to the front desk.

"Thanks for a great day guys." I told them.

"This was the most fun I've had in a long time." I smiled at them.

"I'm a bit hungry." Niall says rubbing his stomach, making Harry and I laugh.

"Let's go get something to eat then." I suggest still laughing. They both nod in approval and we head out of the arena. As soon as we walk out, we run into someone. A certain someone that I didn't want to see.

Zayn.

***Zayn's P.O.V***

Just as I was about to open the door to the ice rink, the girl I was looking for came walking out smiling, which had faded away as soon as she saw me.

"Emily." I whisper keeping my eyes on her. She crossed her arms over her chest glaring at me.

"What do you want?" She spat at me. I hate to see her angry.

"Look, you have every right to be mad, but-" I started.

"Of course I have every right to be mad! You slept with my best friend you ass!" She yelled and I sighed.

"I know. I owe you an explanation." I started again. She shook her head with an annoyed expression on her face. She opened her mouth to talk but I stopped her.

"But! But, you owe me time. The only way this is going to work is if you give me the time to explain what happened." I told her.

"No. Now if you'll excuse us." She said trying to walk past me but I side stepped her.

"Move!" She tried pushing me but I wouldn't budge.

"No, Emily. We need to talk. And I'm not moving until you agree to come with me." I cross my arms and stare down at her.

"Just leave her be, Zayn. She obviously doesn't want to talk to you." Harry stated annoyed. I glared at him.

"This has nothing to do with you, Harry!" I spat at him and he glared at me.

"Fine! Lets just get this over with!" Emily yelled grabbing my arm, and dragging me across the street to a park bench.

"Speak." She said glaring at me and crossing her arms over her chest.

"Okay." I took a deep breath and looked at her. She nodded for me to go on.

"So after work, I decided to go to the bar and get a few drinks, hang out, and yeah. I ordered a beer and sat watching the game when Sarah showed up. She had told me that her day was horrible and her boyfriend just dumped her. Me being me, I bought her a few drinks and way too many shots."

"It was halftime and by then, I'm wasted. Sarah started to get a little bit sexual and I unfortunately did as well. Things started to happen and we wound back at my place. I texted you canceling the date, and pretended to be sick." Emily's mouth dropped open.

"Yeah.. Things started to get a little more sexual and we ended up in bed together. That's when you showed up."

"You're such an ass." She said getting up. I grabbed her hand and pulled her back down.

"I know and I'm sorry. I shouldn't have let it get to me but the alcohol took over my body. And I guess, the thought of us not having sex before made me upset. So I gave into my selfish thinking and slept with Sarah." At this point, I was fighting back the urge to cry.

"I can't believe you. You knew that I wanted to wait until marriage! How could you be so selfish?!" She yelled with tears in her eyes. I could feel tears running down my cheeks.

"I'm so sorry. I just forgot that-"

"Oh you forgot, huh? You forgot that you had a girlfriend? You forgot that I'm not a slut who sleeps with any guy she can?!" She yelled at me with full anger in her voice.

"I'm so, so sorry, Emily." I told her choking on my words. I just let the tears fall down my cheeks.

"Fuck you, Zayn." She spat at me and stormed off. By now I knew there was nothing else I could do to try and make her forgive me.

The girl I loved has now walked away from me and out of my life for good.

I guess I'll never get the chance to propose now.
