Niall's POV.

My body felt tired from all the golfing I did with the lads earlier, but my mind was racing. I couldn't help but lay in bed staring at the ceiling thinking about Zoe. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't feeling a pang of jealousy knowing she'd be in a club without me. She's such a gorgeous girl and it makes me uneasy that other guys could be hitting on her right this moment.

My face felt hot with my rising anger just thinking of another man approaching her. I wasn't even sure if I trusted Leah to look after her but I had to pretend to want Zoe to go out with her. Zoe has trouble making friends and I knew Leah was her best friend and hasn't seen her in so long. That's why I came up with the idea of girls night but this is slowly killing me.

I glanced at the clock beside my side of the bed and realized it's past midnight. Would she still be at the club? A sudden smile spread across my face at me laying on "my side" of the bed. I always slept in the middle but now that Zoe stays here a lot, she has taken over the right side. I run my hand over the cold empty spot wishing she was here. I realized I didn't even ask her if she was coming over after the club or going to the halls. My fingers tap against my bare chest as I ponder sending her a quick text to ask. Before I changed my mind, I pick up my phone and disconnect it from the charger.

Niall: Hey baby I hope you're having a good time . Just wanted to know if you're coming back here afterwards or not ?

I hit send and set the phone face down on my chest. She was sure to respond any second. She always does. Much to my dismay, the minutes pass and no response. I try not to panic and think of possible reasons why she wouldn't reply. I decide to settle on the reason being her phone is dead. I decide to send another message just in case.

Niall: I miss you . Just know if you come back here let yourself in with your key .

My eyes were staring to feel heavy despite any worrisome thoughts invading my mind. I closed my eyes to try and overcome these jealous feelings but somehow end up asleep. I woke up with a sudden jolt then reaching out to Zoe's side. Empty.

I check the time again and it's now 5 in the morning. I frown knowing she's definitely not at the club anymore and didn't come home. I take my phone in my hands and no missed calls or unopened texts. My heart begins to race a bit and my palms start to get sweaty. Where could she be? Who is she with?

I sit up and tap my thumb on the black screen of my phone contemplating my next move. I already sent her 2 texts last night so I realize I don't really have a next move. All I can do is wait.

I continue to burden myself with the worst thoughts about what could have happened. Before I know it it's 6:30 and the sun is rising bringing bright orange light through my window. I hop out of bed and decide I'm going to go look for Zoe in the halls. She has to show up there eventually to get ready for work.

If I leave in 15 minutes, I can be there at about 7:30. Just in time for her to get ready for her shift. I make my way to the bathroom to brush my teeth and face before stepping into jeans and a shirt. I slipped on my tennis shoes at the door foregoing the socks. I really just wanted to see Zoe already.

I distracted myself on the ride there by listening to music. I realized how much I miss making music and being in the band. At the same time I'm enjoying this time off especially because it allowed me to finally find someone I can connect with. Zoe has reached places in my heart no other person has ever been able to.

All these feelings for Zoe are so foreign to me. I don't want to screw up and come on too strong but I can't help it sometimes. I hope I don't come off as needy by showing up here. I pull into the front of the halls and wait inside my car. I'm not allowed to go inside so I'll wait for her to come out once she leaves for work.

To pass the time, I open up Twitter and notice my notifications are greater than any regular day. The fans must be on to something so I check some of the mentions. My eyes grow wide as I realize what's trending.

@gtrpride34: Knew it! She's a slut! #Ziallisoverparty #ohnoniall

@niallupdates1d: Pictures of cheating Zoe last night! #Ziallisoverparty #ziall #niallhoran

@brithoran93: I won't believe anything until Niall confirms or denies. I loved #Ziall :( #Ziallisoverparty

I click on the pictures that are in most of the posts in this hashtag and nearly drop my phone. It's low quality pictures of Zoe at Cirque Le Soir last night. In one picture it appears a man is kissing her! Then she's dancing with him in a few others. There's even one of her chugging her drink!

I throw my phone on the passenger side and bang my hands on the steering wheel. Words could not describe the anger I was feeling. She fucking played me! For everyone to see! I bury my face in my hands and scream in anger. My face felt hot, like it was going to burst into flames. Without much thought, I get out of my car and walk into her building. Rage overcoming me and not giving a fuck who sees.

I knock on her door louder than necessary, probably waking the adjoining rooms. After what seems like an eternity, the door is opened by her roommate who looks pretty confused.

"Where's Zoe?!" I demand not caring what else she might have to say.
"She's not here and she didn't sleep here. You do know that you can't... " she says but before she can finish her sentence, I turn on my heel and head for the lobby.

She didn't sleep there so she probably spent it with the fucker from the club! I rush back in my car and merge into traffic. I absentmindedly drove back home the images of Zoe polluting my mind and making my eyes sting with threatening tears. This shit can't be happening!

Notes

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!!

I'm so excited because all the signs are pointing to Niall releasing a solo very soon and I'm just so ready for it! Imagine a whole album of his beautiful voice! I haven't even heard anything and I know I'll love it!

Also, THE HARRY PHOTOSHOOT!! Holy chokers and nail polish! I am in love with every single picture. Like, I can't even choose a favorite because he's such a rockstar model and shit. I know all this time we thought Zayn was the model but I feel Harry's shoot is so much better than anything that Zayn has done. I don't want to hate on Zayn, but everything he does is so "Zayn" know what I mean? What Harry did was daring and with very good taste.

I feel weird for saying Zayn so many times in the last paragraph. lol

Anyway, about this chapter, it looks like Zoe fucked up and was discovered by the fandom. Typical fandom shady business. lol What do you think Niall will do now? Do you think Zoe is really in the photos? WHERE IS ZOE?!

I hope I can get to 40 subs with this chapter! Would mean a ton to hit 40 :)
