*Unknown charecter* POV

Isobel and Hannah were back today.

I finally get to see Isobel again, I hope she hasn't forgotten me..

I walked from the bus stop to her house and knocked on the door.

A curly haired guy answered the door. 

"Can I help you?" he asked. "Uh.. Is... Is Izzy in?" I asked, a headache starting from all the thinking i was doing. "Yeah, c'mon on in" He smiled, stepping aside so I could walk in. The guy took me through the dining room, kitchen and into the back garden where there was quite a few people. "ISOBEL THERE'S SOMEONE HERE FOR YOU!!" He shouted and then walked back inside.

Isobel looked up, smiling, her smile wavered a little as she stood and walked over to her, she seemed so different.

"Wh..y are you here?" She asked, her face blank.

"I came to see you.. I-If you want me to leave i'll go." I said, looking past Isobel at everyone looking at us both, she shook her head, took me by the arm and pulled me towards the group. "Um.. I guess I should introduce you all then.." she dropped her hand "This is Zayn.." "Vas Happenin'?" "Um.. Hi?" I said. "This is Niall.." "Hey!" "Hi" "This is Ariana.." "Hiii!!" "Hi...?" "This is Liam.." "Hey" "Hi.." "You know hannah.." "Good to see you again!" "Yeah..." "Oh and those four over there. The one in stripes is Louis. The curly-haired guy is Harry, the brown haired girl is Emma and the Blond haired girl is Taylor.. GUYS SAY HELLO!" "Hi!" The two girls said. "Hello!" the curly haired guy said. "He- SHE HAS A STRIPY TOP ON!" the one with striped practically screamed. I jumped in surprise when he did. "Um.. I think I need to go..." I said. "But you just got here!" "I need to go" I began to walk back through the house, I heard foot steps behind me. I was about to open the front door when i was turned around. "Please.. Don't leave?" "I have to go" 

I opened the door and started walking to the bus stop. "Don't turn around. She doesn't need you now. She doesnt love you anymore." I repeated in my head

Who would blame her I mean we never got chance to see eachother and we were kinda growing apart.

I waited for the next bus which wasn't too long. My phone buzzed, it was probably a text from Isobel.

I was right. It read;

Look, you could have atleast rang me to say you were coming, you've made no effort to talk to me while i was In America. And if I remember you're not aloud near me anymore, remember. Maybe its time you moved on Ciara. Tell your brother to keep the dog tag, as a reminder that i'm always here for HIM not you. Goodbye. - Isobel.

Zayn's POV

Isobel and the girl she was with had walked into the house, there was something about her. I dont know what it was.

I lifted my knees bringing them slightly closer to me, I was leaning against Liam's back, everyone else had gone inside because it had started raining. "You should go check on her Zayn.." Liam said. I shook my head slightly more violently than intended, what was left of my quiff fell onto my face. "She's probably not even here now, she probably followed her out" I said, massaging my temples trying to keep my headache at bay. "You were saying?" Liam said, turning, causing me to fall back a little, I looked towards the door, seeing Isobel stood there, looking but not really seeing.

I stood up and walked towards her, slipping on the muddy grass. A ghost of a smile tugged at the corners of her mouth but not appearing. I stood infront of her for a few seconds, studying her face. Her normally dark/bright blue eyes were a dull grey. She was soaked so i assumed she had been sat out front for a while. I held my arms out, offering a hug, knowing she goes through phases of not wanting to be touched. She shook her head, her hair falling over her face and sticking to her forehead/cheeks. I nodded and sat on the table harry previously had food. Liam walked down the garden, also slipping,  "Ew.. mud all over my jeans" he laughed lightly, wiping mud on my face then stepping around Isobel to go inside.

Isobel sat watching me for a while, I tried to figure her mood. We had some sort of staring competition, Isobel lost. I chuckled. "I'm sorry zayn" "What do you mean?" "I wasn't truly honest with you.." "What do you mean?" "When we first started out I-I had a girlefriend.." I frowned, what? "You had a girlfriend? So you're-" "Bi" she finished for me. "Oh.. but you're not with her now?" "No, we hadn't seen eachother in almost a year so I thought we'd split, so did her brother..." "Her brother?" "Niel Duncan" "I've heard of him..." "You probably have, i tend to have bad dreams on what could've happened if Ciara hadn't ran away and i hadn't rang him, he probably would have died.." "How?" "I dont wanna talk about it anymore.." she stood up, standing between my knees, resting her head on my shoulder. I wrapped my arms round her waist, hugging her close. "Are you okay?.." i stroked her hair softly. "No.. Yeah.. I dunno.. I'll be fine" she mumbled. "C'mon lets go inside its cold" I stood up, holding Isobel's waist, picking her up. She wrapped her legs around me and rested her head on my shoulder, her warm breath warming me.

I carried her inside, she started snoring softly. I chuckled to myself. I heard Taylor singing from the living room, I held isobel tightly, her hair sticking to my hands. I walked up the stairs, putting her on the bed, i ended up having to lie with her because she was gripping my t-shirt and wouldnt let go. Hannah knocked on the door "Zayn? Isobel?" she pushed open the door "Aww is she asleep?" she smiled. "yeah" I laughed lightly, pushing Isobel's damp hair from her face. "everyone's going to bed now, night Zayn.." she smiled, closing the door behind her. Isobel snugg;ed into me, mumbling something in her sleep. I kissed her forehead "Goodnight, beautiful.." I whispered before shutting my eyes and sleeping..
