Zoe Pov

Johannah took Eleanor home and brought Louis a pair of boxers for sleeping in. As he was changing, I went up to my room to slip on some pjs myself. I usually sleep naked, but I really couldn't do that today... After I was done with my night time routine, I walked back to the living room to see Louis going through some of the tapes, probably trying to find the next one, number 25.

"Hello," he smiled, watching me walk downstairs.

"Hey," I laughed. "Looking for number twenty five?"

"Ya. I thought we could watch them together," he smiled.

"Ok," I said, bending down to look in the box as well. I quickly found the tape and I turned it over to look at the label.

"Louis and Zoe: Christmas"

Ahhh Christmas, my favorite day of the year. I slipped the tape into the player and sat down on the couch with Louis beside me. It was extremely awkward. I don't know how to act in these situations. Do I act like his best friend, since we were? Do I sit here? AGH! I don't know!

The TV started the video and I waited as we appeared on the screen. It looked like Louis was holding the camera, taping himself.

"Hello Selves! It's christmas!! YAY!!!" fetus Louis screamed. I laughed at his weirdness. "I got Zoe a charm bracelet, but don't tell her. The charms are of a video camera, the letter L, the letter Z, and a heart. I hope she likes it," Louis told us nervously. I gasped, feeling the charm bracelet on my wrist. I always had it on, I almost never took it off. I paused the video.

"You got this for me?" I asked, holding up my wrist.

"Ya! You still have it!?" he smiled.

"Ya! I forgot who I got this from, but I knew it was important!" I told him.

"That's good. I would be upset if you didn't keep any of our memories at all."

"How much do you remember?" I asked him.

"Um...
well...
all of it," he said, sighing.

"But I thought you didn't remember me?" I joked.

"I know. I lied. You said you didn't remember me and I kind of froze. We were best friends Zoe! I never forgot you!" he told me.

"Now I feel awful," I told him truthfully. He didn't reply and I clicked play to break the silence.

"HERE ZOE COME TELL THE CAMERA WHAT YOU GOT ME!" Louis yelled. I saw myself come running up to the camera and grabbing it from Louis. Fetus Louis walked away into the kitchen and kept walking in, trying to hear what his gift was, but I always caught him.

"Ok, um hey! So, I didn't get Louis a physical gift. I got him singing lessons! Yay me! He thinks I can't hear him singing in the shower, but trust me, I can. The whole city can." I told the camera. Aw, I'm such a nice friend, except for the fact I forgot him...

"Thanks again, Zoe. You're kind of the reason I'm in One Direction..." he told me, his voice trailing off at the end of his sentence.

"Dang it! I hate One Direction!" I joked, though he believed me. His eyes got wide and his mouth hit the ground, not literally of course.

"I'm just kidding! GOD! I love One Direction, even before I knew my so called best friend was in it," I laughed.

"Thank goodness. I couldn't have had my best friend hate my band," he laughed. Best friend? Um? We haven't talked in how long? 5 years? And I'm still your best friend?

"Louis?" I whispered. He looked up at me, staring into my eyes. "Why did we tear apart? How come we aren't friends anymore?" I asked him. He looked down and started twiddling his thumbs.

"Well... I can't believe you don't remember why. Just finish the tapes. It explains everything," he told me, avoiding my gaze.

"But there are like 50 more to go!" I whined.

"All in good time, all in good time," he smiled.

"Wanna watch a real movie?" I asked. He agreed and we put in the classic sleepover movie, Mean Girls. I fell asleep about halfway through it.

(Morning)

I woke up and I was sprawled out onto the couch, my head on the cushion and my legs on Louis's lap. He was squished up onto the side of the couch and I laughed. I should've warned him I'm a bed hogger. My laugh startled Louis and he slowly got up.

"Mornin'" he groaned.

"Mornin'" I said in return. "I'm gonna get dressed, feel free to make breakfast." I smiled, rushing up to my room. I hopped in the shower and spent about ten minutes in there before I slipped out and quickly covered my body with a towel. I dried myself off and went to my closet to pick out my outfit for Saturday, aka today.

I quickly got changed, and put on my makeup. Once I was finished, I went back down stairs to see Louis in the clothes he wore yesterday.

"Want me to drop you off?" I asked him.

"Aw, not yet!" He groaned.

"But you smell..." I told him. I wasn't kidding. He smelled like Monday.

"FINE!" He yelled, giving up. I walked with him to the car and I turned to radio up.

"So how come fans aren't swarming you right now?" I asked.

"They don't know where I am," he laughed.

"Oh," I nodded.

"This was fun!" Louis told me. I smiled in return.

"Ya it was," I laughed.

"We should do this more," he told me.

"Ya we should,"

"How about Thursday? Eleanor and I are going shopping. You can come along!" he told me, very excited.

"Um I guess. I don't really like shopping with other people," I muttered, halfway to Louis' place.

"Oh pleeeeease! Eleanor has great fashion taste!"

"I know. Her outfit was amazing yesterday. Plus, you're forgetting the fact I was a total fangirl of your band," I laughed.

"Was"

"Sorry, am" I laughed.

"Ok so Thursday! See ya then," Louis called, as we pulled up to his driveway. He got out of the car and I watched him, as he entered his house.
