Zoe’s POV
I burst into tears on the way to Tanya and Jim’s. It probably wasn’t safe to drive, but I did anyway. Once I got to Tan and Jim’s I used the key they gave me, and toppled in.
“I HATE MY LIFE!” I yelled at the top of my lungs, not even thinking if they were home. I heard fast, heavy footsteps coming down the stairs.
“Zoe? What are you doing? What’s wrong?” I heard Tan say. I continued to shed tears, whilst Tan helped me up off the floor.
“I’m sorry Tan.”
“It’s okay Zo. What happened? Your a mess.”
“It’s.. Alfie. He. Has..A.. Girl— girl… Girlfriend.”
“That’s okay isn’t it. Why are you so upset. You should be happy. You didn't have feelings for him.”
“TAN!! Alfie and I have been a couple for 2 days. It happened in Scotland. I stayed at his last night, woke up, checked the time on his phone and saw a text from a girl called Alex. It was saying something like.. I DONT CARE!!!” I burst into even bigger tears.
“Come here Zoe. Lie on the couch. Does Alfie know where you are? He might be worried.”
“I don't care. And do not tell him I’m here.” I said whilst climbing onto the sofa. Tan was in the kitchen explaining to Jim what had happened. They were such a cute couple. Smiling, hugging. They are going to make great parents, I just hope they don’t hide it from the fans for too much longer or else its gonna turn out bad. Funny thing is, they weren't even married, let a lone engaged. Tanya picked up the phone, and I was concerned she was going to call Alfie. Whilst she was on the phone, Jim came over to me with a cup of tea.
“Thanks Jim. Your the best!”
“No problem. Now Zoe. I need you to be calm right now. Can you do that?”
“Yes. What’s up?”
“I want to invite you on holiday with Tan and I. I am going to propose to her, and I want you to be there.”
“AGH!!!! OMG!! YESS!!” I screamed.
“Shhh!! Zoe. You cant say a thing to Tanya. I want this to be the biggest surprise of her life, apart from being pregnant.”
“Okay! Where are we going to go?”
“Italy.”
“That’s great Jim. I am so happy for you both.”
Tanya finished up her phone call, and Jim and I were still smiling.
“Why are you two smiling at? What do you know, that I don’t.”
“WE ARE GOING ON HOLIDAY!! TO ITALY!” I screamed with excitement.
“YEAH TAN! WE ARE! AND ZOE IS COMING!!
2 hours later.*
Alfie’s POV
I got a phone call from Tan about an hour or 2 ago. Zoe was at their house, and she invited me round as Zoe had explained everything to her. I headed over to the house, and quietly knocked on the door. I was let in, then quietly walked up the stairs. Jim was filming a video, so I helped him film which was the “reason I was there”. Once we were done, we headed downstairs to the kitchen and made some lunch.
“Alfie? What are you doing here. I don't want to talk to you. Tan! I told you not to tell him I was here.”
“Zoe. He is here to apologise, and help Jim with a video. No need to stress. Right Alfie?”
“Exactly. Zoe. In private please.”
“No. Whatever you have to say, they need to hear too.”
“Zoe. I am serious. Do you want them to hear what we did?.. details?”
“Fine. But only for five minutes then I am not talking to you again.”
Tanya’s POV
It was so nice to hear Zoe finally had a boyfriend, and to Alfie especially. Alfie always talked about her to me. And when Alfie said: “Zoe. I am serious.s Do you want them to hear what we did?..details?” I knew immediately they had done it. It was so cute. They are just like when Jim and I were they’re age, and weren't sure about our relationship. But whatever Alfie has done, must be sorted out.
Zoe’s POV
“What do you want Alfie?”
“Zoe. Why did you walk out on me? How do you know about Alex?”
“I checked your phone this morning to see the time, and there was a text from her. Something that she has stayed at your place before, and she called you babe and everything.”
“Zoe. She is my ex-girlfriend in a way. When I was younger I was in the play at my school. We had to kiss in it. So she thought we were a couple, but we weren't. She assumed since we were boyfriend/girlfriend in the play, that’s how it was in real life. She hasn’t gotten over the fact that I don't “love” her. She has stayed at my place before because her mum died, and you cant say no to someone who has just lost a loved one. Please believe me before you jump to conclusions.”
“I don't know. It seemed kind of sneaky. You’ve NEVER mentioned her before.”
“I didn't want you to think I was weird Zo. Please. Please forgive me. I have given you the truth. I love you just the way you are, and I don't want to leave you this soon, let alone EVER.”
“Aww Alf. I am sorry.”
He pecked me on the lips, and gave me one of his snuggly, warm hugs you never want to leave. We held hands, and walked into the kitchen where Tan and Jim looked as though they were spying on us talking.
"Righty. Since this was kind of planned, Alfie... you are coming to Italy with us." Jim announced.
"And you have to share a room." He added.
Alfie and I looked at each other, and grinned. This was going to be the best holiday ever.
