”Bella wouldn't let me tell! Hey, I'm sorry for not telling you.” Dora said, making Zoe think if she was the best friend she had known long ago. ”I kept thinking I was the worst friend for keeping this from you but it is out in the open now,” Dora said, she gave a face that showed she was truly sorry.

”Are you mad at me? Oh, please don't be mad at me Zoe.” Dora muttered but Zoe strolled towards the parking lot feeling the anger burning a hole through her, she had felt bad for him for being alone! That jerk.

She had let him spend the celebration with her family. He should have just spent it with Bella and her family, then they could have had a wonderful little time together. Oh, when she sees Alex again... "Zoe, please talk to me," Bella pleaded.

Zoe sucked in a deep breath! Through her clenched teeth, she glanced at the two people who had hidden things from her. Zoe could tell that her lack of speech was upsetting them, Not like she really cared right now. She turned to face Bella w

At their table, Alex sat close to Bella and Luke sat close to Zoe. The boys were ignoring each other which wasn't something new to Zoe. As long as they weren't fighting, using their power, and throwing blows it was fine by her."I think I'm gonna find the car that the teacher drives and keys the hell out of it." Bella mused, sticking her fork angrily at the meatballs on her plate.Zoe shook her head fighting back a smile. "Silver Paris! I can show you which one," Alex said, Zoe glanced up at him to notice him grinning. ”You are horrendous," Bella said, smiling at Alex fondly. Zoe stared at the ceiling trying to block out the look on his face! All dreamy, ugh. While they had lunch, Alex worked on one of his Assignments! Bella kept mumbling some stuff with Dora and Luke was completely submerged in a conversation with one of his friends about bask

Luke had checked up on her before going to school, he said he hoped she would feel better later and he was going to miss her absent from school today.Dora and Bella texted her. She replied to Dora but as for Bella! Zoe felt guilty about what she was planning on saying to Alex so she just ignored her.Zoe lay in bed all day. She took a shower and then went back to sleep for the night. A wasted day but she totally needed the sleep she had.

    "No, see! uh, you weren't supposed to know. She wanted it to be a surprise." Zoe said quietly. It was a long moment before he asked the question Zoe had been dreading. "Then why did you tell me?" Alex asked and she looked away. How could she answer this question without completely revealing how much she was in love with him. "Wait, waoh! Liked not love, right? Zoe, you don't love Alex. What the f..ck is wrong with my brains today?" She scoffed to herself."Zoe, come on why did you tell me?" Alex asked again, almost impatient, she looked up into his seriously blue eyes and lied. "You don't know Bella for this short while the way I do know her, when Bella gets ideas in her head it is totally impossible to stop her! I know she isn't ready for this and I would be damned to sit and watch her get hurt, especially from a guy who doesn't share her feelings." Zoe said having no freaking idea why she had to throw out the last part but she felt bad almost immediately because of Alex's expressi

    Since Zoe had basically ended up pissing three of the most important people in her life. She was feeling pretty low. Sunday, She tried calling all of them! Texted them, but none of them answered or replied.She knew Bella wasn't going to respond at all. She had also figured Luke wouldn't also but she utterly was surprised Alex wasn't as well! It hurt, she thought he would be the easiest to forgive her.Apparently not. All Zoe knew was that she couldn't wait for Monday, she had some major ass to kiss. The first person she went straight to on a Monday morning was Luke. She went up to him before classes started. "Hey," she said. He gave a stiff nod while grabbing books from his locker. Zoe sighed. "Luke, please talk to me, I'm really really sorry! I mean I forgot our plans. I totally had a lot of things in my mind." She said, "Funny, you forgot our plans but you made sure Bella's plan with that Alex guy didn't go through," Luke said sarcastically.Oh God, was he actually jealous or so

    Zoe took a deep breath to regain her composure. "So what's gonna happen now?" She asked, desperately needing a distraction from what seemed to be raging inside her. "Stay here until school let out I think, the nurse said it was okay If I did." He said and leaned back into his chair, probably to give her some space. Alex needed space and yet she didn't want to leave him. Just the thought of leaving this room weighed heavily on her chest, it was freaking weird. "Mind if I keep you company?" She asked rather shakily. He rolled his eyes. "Of course not, Zoe." He replied.They sat together in the nurse's office for a while making small talks, she mostly watched Alex dreamily. She felt thankful that he looked better and better each time she gaped at him.Once the bell rang to dismiss everyone for the day. They both stood up and gazed at each other. Without seeming to give it a second thought he leaned down and gave Zoe a quick hug, she tried to pretend that it was like hugging any of her f

    "How have you been feeling since then! You know the attack?” Zoe asked quietly. "Good, honestly I have a feeling I won't be having another one for a long time." He said. "Good," Zoe sighed with relief. "Yeah," he muttered and they were both silent for a bit."Oh wow," He muttered all of a sudden. "What is it?" She asked. He chuckled. ”The pack carolers, a whole bunch of them are singing across the road from my house." Alex said. ”Can you hear what they are singing?" Zoe asked."Uh, no, probably a jingle bell song by the look of it. God, I really hope they don't come over to my house - damn. Too late they are here." Alex said and Zoe laughed. "Carolers aren't bad, you should go out and listen to them!" Zoe suggested. ”I don't like people singing in front of my house, it is just really awkward." Alex says. "Where are you at?" Zoe asked. "Hidden behind the curtain looking out," he replied in a whisper like the singers were going to hear him."Alex?" Zoe called with a sigh. "Crap! They

    It had been two weeks since Zoe got into such an accident and hadn't opened her eyes. Alex felt bad, sad, miserable, just call it whatever you want to. I'm only Glad that after telling Mr. Zander the entire truth he still didn't resent me. It was snowy today and I sat down at the hospital bed with my hand intertwined with Zoe's. I know how much she cherishes it, "water! Water," I heard the faint voice of Zoe. I thought I had heard wrong as I placed my ear close to her and just as I heard, Zoe needed water. I couldn't console the joy as I rushed to get her some water. I missed her so much and I hope she doesn't resent me, after taking the water she held my hand into her. "What about your son? I wouldn't object if you want to be with him please just don't leave me! I don't know who I would be without you," she finally said. I couldn't believe she still cared about me after what I had done. I must be lucky because the Goddess had blessed me with my true soul mate, I could notice the t

    "Where have you been, you got me worried," Zoe said as she hugged him very tight, I mean more than she has ever done but he did something shocking, and he pulled away."We have to talk, Zoe," he said, making Zoe anxious. Zoe wondered if what she feared the most had happened. She marveled at if he had gotten tired of her. "All ears, you can tell me anything and I am willing to listen," she said, trying to hold his hand tightly. "You remember I told you that I was going for the after-party?" he said with a sad grin plastered on his face. Zoe hated the fact that he was moody and she wished she could make him smile."Yes, well?" Zoe asked in much curiosity. "Well, I got drunk and I had a one-night stand with some total stranger! A human girl and I regret it," he said bowing his head in shame. To be honest, Zoe didn't know how to react but she just had to let it go if she truly loved him. She could see how sorry he was and she just couldn't let him feel worse even if it was hurting her b

    "Darling? We are going to miss you," Dad said while hauling Zoe closer for a tight hug and perking her on the forehead. When he was done with his pitiful goodbye it was Lillian's turn.

You are going to leave far away from home," she said in between hugs as she rubbed Zoe's back.Zoe just couldn't help but let out a drop of tears.

The more he looked sick to her, the prom was always something every teenager tends to be happy about. I mean they get to be asked to prom by their crush, boyfriends, and friends. Most importantly they get to wear some fancy gowns and suits. Luke had asked Zoe to prom and she had agreed, not that she could turn him down! Right? He was her boyfriend after all.Bella had moved on from Alex which Zoe was glad about. She sometimes talks about him casually with her but she tends to brush off anything about him, she had found another guy to obsess about. She always talked about him every time they met up, and Zoe guessed he was their new neighbor.Dora, and Parker we're still the best of crazy couples in schoo

    Zoe immediately tried to get to the door of their Bella's but she was quick to throw her a punch in the face causing a nosebleed which Zoe totally deserved. Zoe's things were thrown outside. Zoe tried to open the door but she had locked her outside. "Bella, what about we talk about this! You totally misunderstood whatever you must have seen." Zoe said, hoping she would understand. "I really hate you Zoe and I hope you get into an accident and die, how could you do this to me." She said amidst tears. Zoe understood she was heartbroken and needed some space, I mean Bella had every right to be furious. Zoe turned to notice Alex still standing there, he was about to come closer. "Alex, just go home already! this was enough drama already for me," Zoe said walking past him and entering her car, she just couldn't believe this was happening.Zoe decided to place her key in her steering and zoom off but she just couldn't help herself to drive home because her hands were quite shaky.

She needed to help her out. Zoe had to get up early and go over to her house, within the first few moments of being there with her cousins, Ricky and Ronnie. Zoe realized that Bella had been totally dramatic, they were fine and had no issue.Zoe thought Bella was probably bored and wanted somebody to talk to. Which kind of pissed her off, Zoe felt like she could be sleeping at home rather than being in her quiet house. Zoe could be sleeping at home while hugging her pillow tightly. Instead, she was stuck with Bella watching some freaking cartoon. Both her cousins are under five years old. It's not like they can watch MTV and keep themselves entertained. Zoe was just reading a cute message from Luke when a notification popped up from Alex. She hesitated before reading it. What was she going to tell him

    "Oh my Gosh, will you please stop making faces at that baby and help me before Dora probably shows up?" Bella said, annoyed. It was the third time she had said it and right now was the fourth. Bella's parents had decided she had her birthday party at a fancy hotel, her dad apparently knows the owner, so they got a discount.Zoe and Dora and a few other girls were invited to spend the night at the hotel. Ordering room service and getting a manicure, her birthday was a few more days but she asked Zoe to come early and set up a bunch of decorations in the room they had reserved. Balloons, and streamers! That kind of crap. They were hanging stuff up when a woman with a baby girl walked by.Obviously, Zoe had to go see the little princess. Who can really resist a pup? "Sorry, Bella," Zoe muttered before chuckling. She went back to what she was doing afterward. "We should go swimming when we are done, the pool is awesome here," Bella said. "They have a hot tub right?" Zoe asked. "Mm, hm."

    Anyway, it's Tuesday night! January is just about to finish. A very crappy month in Zoe's opinion. Nothing seemed to work out, sigh. Zoe, Bella, and Dora are chilling in Dora's gigantic bed. They were going through her enormous closet trying on a different outfit, Bella was helping her choose what to wear and Zoe just lay on the bed staring at them. Zoe has to admit that she was proud of how quickly Bella dropped Alex out of their conversation. Out of her phone and basically out of her life, maybe she finally realized that there is more of life than boys. This was the reason why soulmates or mates are hard to believe. Some married couples who believe they are soulmates are divorced or having quarrels and killing one another somewhere.That sounds really hypocritical coming from Zoe though. I mean the girl who is torn in between two guys, ahh well! "Oh my gosh, I look fat in this dress," Dora complained in front of the mirror. Zoe was stretched on her bed now playing games on her ph

    During a later class, Zoe and Bella were discussing her birthday which was approaching soon! "Well, I did want to spend my birthday with Alex but that is not going to happen anymore," Bella said as her face darkened for a second before she smiled again. "I was thinking you, Dora and a few other girls could have a sleepover at my house or something." She said,"Sounds cool but what gift do you want?" Zoe asked. "Hmm, surprise me!" she said. "Bell, I have been trying to come up with a gift idea-" Zoe tried to say but Bella was quick to cut her off. "Fine, how about I make a list of random things I want and you can choose one for me?" she suggested. "Yes, that much better," Zoe said as the teacher handed out an assignment that kept them busy for the rest of the class. Afterward, they were heading to biology when Zoe spotted Alex down the hallway coming in their direction! "Uh," Zoe mumbled. "What, oh, I'll be in here! Let me know when he is gone," Bella said when she noticed Alex. She
