Her Undeniable Temptation

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 couldn’t just help it as she burst into tears! Zoe really didn’t want to break her relationship with either Alex or Bella.

She just couldn’t stand the fact that Bella was mad at her right now because of not having the courage of letting her know about her real feelings for Alex. Her nose bleeding had stained her clothes with b***d but that wasn’t something she was bothered about.

She was still crying when Alex’s car drove off and her phone began to ring. She checked to notice a call from Luke, and she immediately cleaned her tears and tried to act normal. “Hi,” she managed to say.

“Are you alright? Have you been crying?” Luke asked with a worried voice. “I’m fine Luke, something just happened to get into my eyes,” she said sharply.

“Can I call you back, My dad is calling.” Zoe lied as she hung up.

Immediately she hung up. Zoe fling her phone on the passenger seat, she held the steering and allowed the tears to flow. After crying her eyes out, she practically fell asleep in her car in front of Bella’s house.

She woke up to notice a knock on her car, Zoe brought down the car window to notice Dora! Zoe was sure Bella must have called her. “Hey,” she said as she opened the passenger seat and slid in.

“Hey,” Zoe said as she burst into another set of tears while hugging her. “Are both you and Bella going to be really dramatic over a boy?” She asked as she rocked Zoe’s back with her hand.

“I’m sorry for being the cause of all this, I swear I’m sorry,” Zoe said as Dora brought out some tissue for her to blow on it. “I seriously didn’t want Alex showing up at Bella’s place today. I had texted him that it wasn’t a good idea but he wouldn’t listen and still show up. And after seeing him____I_ii___ Just__ C___ould not hold my feel__ings.” Zoe continued saying as she sputtered, making fresh tears drip from her eyes.

“Maybe I should drive you home today and ask Parker to pick me up from your house.” She said as they both swapped seats, at least Zoe was happy that Dora wasn’t judging her. “You need your nose cleaned,” Dora said.

Dora drove her home as she had said and Parker had come to pick her up. Lilian had tried to come to her room to talk to her but Zoe had locked her room and cried on her pillow.

Zoe had stayed locked up in her room for the past two days, she had been trying to call Bella but she wasn’t picking up, and Alex and Luke have been giving her so many calls which she didn’t pick or reject.

They had even gone to the extent of coming to her house each but she overheard Lilian telling both of them to give her time to think.

Bella’s birthday party was today and Zoe didn’t know whether to still go or not. Today was supposed to be a special day for her and she seriously didn’t want to ruin it by showing up! so, she decided to just stay in her room and watch movies like she had always done these past few days.

Dora had called and texted her countless times about the party but Zoe had ignored and even switched off her phone. She didn’t want her to force her to go to the party, Zoe just couldn’t face humiliation.

That was the one thing she was totally scared of. After that day, Alex, Dora, Bella, and even Luke stopped calling or texting. Zoe reckoned that she had ended up pushing away the people she loved.

Today was Monday and the break was over. The school was resuming today and graduation was coming soon. The first day of resumption was really awkward for Zoe since Dora wasn’t talking to her or Bella.

She and Luke were back together and he was the only one who talked to her in school. Bella had gone to the extent of telling people that she was a boyfriend seducer. Zoe didn’t care because she deserved whatever she threw at her. Some people went to the extent of saying Zoe had charmed Luke into being her boyfriend.

Alex hasn’t been showing up in school. Zoe didn’t know why but she was worried about him, even if Zoe was worried about him. She has decided to forget everything about him and focus on Luke.

The school was though boring since she wasn’t always with Bella and Dora, Zoe knew that she missed them so much.

Today was Saturday and she was in her room packing old stuff for the garage when a knock came on her door. “The door is open Lilian! you can come in, “Zoe said as she tried to get a book from her shelf but her hand wasn’t getting a hold.

“Here, I guess this is what you are looking for.” She turned to notice Bella. Zoe was super glad that she was in her room right now but she seriously didn’t know what she wanted.

“I’m sure you are angry at the way I acted with you when I saw you and Alex k**s, I would apologize for punching you on the nose but I thought we were friends and friends tend to immediately fix up their mess! I wasn’t really mad at you when you kissed Alex and I’m sorry for the hurtful words I said to you, I totally became mad at you when you didn’t show up on my birthday.” Bella said, sitting on her bed with an angry smirk on her face.

“I’m sorry Bella! I seriously didn’t mean to hurt you, “Zoe said as the tears came foaming in her eyes, how Zoe missed her so much. Zoe was about to hug her when Dora came into her room.

“Are you guys going to leave me out at your reunion?” She asked as they all hugged. “I stopped calling or texting you because I thought you needed space but I’m sorry that the space was getting longer and I needed my best friend back. You totally stopped talking to me entirely which I seriously couldn’t take.” Dora said, hugging Zoe tightly.

“I missed you guys so freaking much,” Zoe said, cleaning her tears. “What about I treat you guys out?” Zoe asked as they both nodded and they headed out.
