Zach's POV :

I slammed a pillow on my face when bright rays peeked through my curtains. I was again going into a slumber when the bell rang. I tried to ignore it but the person outside was real impatient.

I groaned and thought to get up before the person decide to break my apartment door.

I went to open the door kicking the empty beer bottles on my way.

"Coming" , I shouted in annoyance.

I opened the door and there my sister was standing with furious eyes.

"What are you doing here?", I asked her and went inside rubbing my eyes and trying to open them properly.

"What you have done to yourself Zach?", She asked outraged and pointing towards the mess that I had created for last two days.

For that first moment I realized the mess and looked around in disgust. The empty beer bottles were all spread in the apartment with broken pieces of glass. The kitchen was full of dirty dishes. The DVD's were all spread on the coffee table with empty boxes of pizza and cola cans.

"Ugh. You are stinking", She held her nose and shouted in my ear to put some sense in me. I flinched due to harshness in her voice and a pain shot its way to my head reminding that I couldn't evade that f*cking hangover that I will get now.

"Why you are wasting your colorful youth days Zach? "

"Just give me a single reason why I shouldn't", There was nothing left.

"Stop speaking like a hopeless depressed moron" she scolded "Mom is really worried for you"

"Uh? She is the one to put me in this situation!" , I mocked.

"She just want you back and she even kicked her out"

This spread a wave of satisfaction and I smirked. After that tragic night , I went to Chloe's apartment and told her very clearly that what kind of big piece of shit she was. If she was just a bit sensible (which I hardly doubt) she will not come after me now.

"What's the use now? I have already lost Emily "

"I can help you if you will wipe that freaking pity look from your face"

That brought a hope to my face but instantly disappeared when she said "But first go and take a bath. You are stinking like a pig "

I glared her but went straight into the bathroom. Because I knew deep down that she was right.

I looked into the mirror and startled.That was really me in the mirror? That was really that cocky Zach? That arrogant bastard (according to Emily) ? What happened to that billionaire swag? And the criminal to all these crimes were Emily. Who just took my heart and ran away without looking back.

I took a bath that really good a wonderful job in relaxing my aching muscles.

When I came out , my apartment was shinning like a clear crystal and delicious smell of pancakes were coming from the kitchen, making my stomach to rumble.

I went to the kitchen and there Stacy was cooking mouth watering pancakes.

We ate them in silence ,both occupied in our thoughts.

"So What is the plan?", I asked her after finishing the pancakes.

"What plan?", She asked frowning.

"You said you will help me to sort out things", I rolled my eyes at her short term memory lose problem.

"Oh yeah", she remembered.

"So?"

"You are going to talk to her at her home", she exclaimed.

"No.I can't do that. What am I going to even say to her?"

"Stop freaking like a damn girl Zach", she shouted frustrated.

I frowned in response and realized that she was right.Why I was freaking like a damn girl? Be a man Zach.

"I can do THAT", I said with my voice lacing with pure determination.But in reality I was trying to convince myself.

"Okay thats like a Romeo", she patted my back encouraging me.

I grimaced at 'Romeo'

"So get going",she said

"What ?Now?"

"Yes",she said like a commander ordering his soldiers.

I got up from my chair with Stacy following my suite.

When I reached the apartment door she gave me enthusiastic thumbs up which I returned with my nervous ones.

I roared the car and sped away. As I neared her home my heart started to beat faster.

Why I was acting like a nervous women? Now I was having doubts about myself that I was still a man. I checked to make myself sure and Thank GOD I could feel the little buddy down there. I was still a man!

I parked the car infront of her house and came out.I was going to knock the door but then I realized that I was not mentally ready.

I went back to the car and drove to the corner of her street. After calling myself a coward retard million times, I again drove to her house.

Now again when I was going to knock the door I realized that I should have bought some chocolates or flowers.

So I again started my car and went to the market.

After 10 minutes I was again standing infront of her house with the chocolates and a red rose bud in my hand.

At last when I was both mentally and physically ready and decided to knock the door then I stuck in a dilemma whether I should knock the door or use the bell.

What if the bell was out of order? Or what if I knock the door and she thought that I was stupid to knock the door when there was a bell?

Ugh. I closed my eyes and did what my heart said. Ladies and gentlemen I did both.First I knocked and then pressed the bell button.

After a minute, the door opened revealing someone whom I was not expecting to see here after that long time.

The same light brown hair , a built body and dark brown eyes staring directly at me. His expressions changed from surprise to the same hint of hatred for me that I was used to see.

And I was sure that my expressions were mirroring his. Hatred.

What he was doing here?

He looked at the flower and chocolates. Something flashed in his eyes as if he had solved a puzzle.

And then ladies and gentlemen he gave me his signature smirk that I used to hate more then I hate having cereal in breakfast.

I just wanted to punch that smirk off his face but something else was disturbing me and at last I voiced my confusion.

"What are you doing here?"
