The Ship Sails

Wander

Zoe's POV:

Who would've known Alfie was such a child? He admitted me he couldn't cook and fell for the One Direction boys instantly. I couldn't help but laugh, I guess Youtube really can keep someone young.

Alfie and I had been eating and I suddenly realized that I was going to need his number if we ever go our seperate ways and want to meet up-at least that's what I told myself. 

"Hey Alfie?" I said catching him with his mouth full.

Alfie struggled so much to swallow in the moment it was hilarious.

"Yes Zoe?" he said after he finally swallowed.

"I-I'm going to need your number.... You know in case we meet up or if I get lost" I scrambled to add the last part.

Alfie just took my phone from me and put his number in smiling and humming One Direction once again. I was overly proud that I had gotten his number and didn't make a fool out of myself. 

"Thanks Alf" I said standing up and walking to the door to leave.

"Hey Zoe" he called after me, I turned my head around to see what he needed.

"Yes Alf?" I was curious to know what he needed.

"Nevermind, hey I think we are all going out to dinner later so I'll see you then."

I was almost flooded with dissappointment and I had no idea why. This boy was messing with my head, and I didn't need another Wilfred. I've had my share of relationships and all of them ended in me burying my head into various foods. I just left the kitchen with no response to Alfie. I don't think he would need one he was going to see me around the house anyway.

I began climbing the stairs again to my room when Jack came around the corner.

"Hey Zoe, um Tanya has been on the look-out for you, I think you should go see her before she sends a search party for you."

"Thanks Jack, I was heading to the room anyway I'll be sure to let her know you gave me the message."

"Thanks Zoe, she gets quite crazy when she is paranoid" he added sheepishly.

I turned and walked up the hallway to the room passing Marcus once again, he had left his door open. I saw he was on facetime with some blonde beautiful girl. I think I saw her on the cover of some magazines as a model. 

"I miss you too. I'll be seeing you soon" he whispered to the screen.

It was then I realized Marcus had a girlfriend and even Alfie didn't seem to know. I quickly turned and walked down the hall. I didn't want Marcus to see me snooping. I walked my way down the hall to the room I shared with Tanya. The door jerked open before I could knock.

"THERE YOU ARE!" Tanya yells dragging me into the room.

This was sure going to be fun.
