"Liam, what are you doing here?"
I saw Liam standing right in front of me, inside of my bedroom. What was he doing here? Where did he find my address? What's going on?
" You, I came for you. I missed you."
Missed me? What in the..!
"Liam, you can't be here. You shouldn't miss me. We aren't a thing or soo..., what you are doing is called stalking. I'm going to call 911."
" You wish!"
" What?!! Are you alright? Have you hit your head? Noo, no, have you lost your mind?"
" You feel it, don't you? The connection,..., the feeling...., the scent. I know you love it, you miss it.., you want it. "
So I was right. It wasn't my mind playing games with me. He feels all these things too. Since I first met him my mind its a mess. I keep thinking about things I shouldn't be thinking. It always feels like I miss someone badly. And sometimes I find myself unable to breath, wishing somebody was with me there, hugging me, comforting me.
" Liam, I don't know what are you talking about. The things you are saying..., it just doesn't make any sense."
" Cercy, stop playing with me! I know you remember what happened that night at the party. I can see that, just by giving it a look in your eyes. Your pretty eyes can't lie, but your mouth... Your lips they ain't playing right. "
He starts moving closer to me. His steps are slow like he knows that his pray can not hide anywhere. He ruls the darkness in this room. All I could do is step back until my back hits the wall. Now I'm trapped. He leans closer and closer until our bodies touch too.....
" Cercy, wake the hell up??" Icy shouts.
" We are late. Don't tell me you turned off the alarm again. Get upp!!"
" Whatt, it was all a dream!" I whispered the last part. So it was all a dream. Liam in my dreamm... I can't believe this. That guys is going to get me killed one day.
" Why did you wake me up?? The dream wasn't over yet. At least not there.... "
" Dream? What dream? Tell me? "
" Whatt?!! I am not telling you my dream. What if I was kissing Ed Collin in my dream?!"
" You wasn't, was you?" she asked.
" No, butt... Still. Dreams are private. "
" Eheeee.... Come wake up? "
" Okay, let mee take a shower first. "
I had a quick shower and put on my vanilla body cream. I dried my hair and decided to put on some light make up. I put a bit concealer under my eyes and some mascara on. I tried to do eyeliner and my brows as well. I took a look at the mirror and Liam's images filled my thoughts. I looked at my lips and the small scare at the end of it. Without noticing, my hand was already touching my lips while remembering the taste of Liam's lips on mine. Are you drunk? Stop being stupid. He is already yours, you know that. I told you. I can't stop the voices. I think I'm under some kind of a curse because there is no other explanation.
" Cerccc, wtf....., you said five!!"
" Okeyy..., okayy I'm ready."
" Wait, is that makeup in your face?
She is laughing at this point." What..., just a little. Am I not allowed to put on makeup like all the other girls? "
" You were the one saying you did not want to be like the other girls...., and now you say this?! You are acting weird, I swear. The girl I knew wouldn't do this for a guy! "
Now I understand, she thinks I'm doing this for Liam. Aren't you though? Think again before answering. You dumba**...
" You aren't thinking I'm doing this for Liam, are you? "
" Liam?? So it is Liam... Your words, not mine. " She got me there.
" Icy let's go."
At the school :
" Rob, did you find the x in this problem? I've been thinking about this since yesterday and still missing it. Help me, please?!! "
" Cerc, this is so easy. How could you not solve this?! Here let me explain this to you... " Liam cuts him off.
" Hey man, get up. You're sitting at my place!! "
" Sorry, don't you see?! I'M DOING SOMETHING HERE? If your majesty allows it of course..."
" At least you know your place.. " he said quietly.
" Wait, what? " Rob said.
" Leave, I'll help her with that. This is the last time, I'm saying this to you."
" Rob, you can go. I'LL HANDLE IT FOR NOW. " I said while looking at Liam with anger.
" Okay, see you later," he said and kissed me on the forehead. At that moment Liam's eyes winded and his veins were popping out of his skin. Woww... This makes me think.
" Don't fu*king kiss her again? Understood?" Liam said at Rob. At that moment I think I saw Liam's eyes covered by a light shadow that disappeared immediately.
" What? Come again! Who are you to tell me what to do and what not to.., huh new guy? Now don't cause a scene and do what you are told, capisco?. "
What's wrong with Rob. He never acts like this. So protective. I saw Liam ready to throw a punch at Rob and immediately stopped him. I grabbed his hands tightly with mine, looked him in the eyes, and tried to cool him off... FOR THE MOMENT. GOD KNOWS WHAT I'M GONNA DO TO HIM AFTER.
" Hey, Liam why don't you sit down a little, please? Rob go now please??!!"
I sat Liam down and saw a smiling face looking at me. What the hell? He was so mad just a second ago...
" What's so funny? Inform us please?!"
" You look pretty! Not that you aren't always but you're shining today! "
Hell, I must be blushing now. You look sweet as well too, Liam. Doesn't he always though?
" Why didn't you answer my messages last night? I wrote to you. You left me on reading purposely, didn't you? "
" Shift. I must have forgotten to reply. Means you are not important to me. What I mean by this is... Know you fu*king place... And what was that behavior with Rob? Who are you to tell him what to do or not? "
" I'm your... " he didn't complete the sentence.
" Let me help you... NOBODY. That's what you are?! I met you two days ago fuckingg hell! "
" Nobody huh.., let me remind you. You chose me against your best friend who you knew for years, right? You chose to hold my hand against his. You looked me in the eye and waited for me to calm down, not him.
A nobody... If that's what makes you sleep at night, let's leave it like that. If that is what you think when you look at the mirror, If denying this makes you comfortable.., you're free to think soo. But sooner or later you will face the truth. And I hope I'll be the one beside you. "
How does he know how I feel? He thinks I'm weak, doesn't he? How..?! He tried to talk more, but I cut him off...
" Please don't talk anymore! Tomorrow after school we do the project, in the chemistry lab and that's it. I don't want to see you again. Understand?! "
" One day is more than enough for me though!? You'll ask for more," he said.
That evil smirk and those flirting replies... God, he knows how to put my stress away.
" And one more thing, you smell awesome today. Vanilla.., my favorite flavor. I can't wait to taste it..."
" You son of a bi*ch. " I murmured under my breath
For God's sake, can't Liam act normal for once? I know he keeps doing this because of me pretending not to know him, but still ..., the way he acted towards Rob today, like I am some kind, in his possession, just doesn't make any sense. I know we have a connection between us and I know I can't deny it anymore, and this always gets me thinking "Why do I feel like this" he is rude to everyone, doesn't care about anyone but himself, so self - obsessed... but when I look at him all I see is a lost puppy, smiling at me, giving me his shiny blue eyes, making my heart melt for a second. But that's it. I'm not gonna let myself get seduced by two gorgeous eyes and a pretty smile. I am not weak anymore and I'm not gonna let anyone break my heart again. I'm not gonna let another Den in my life. Let's
" Shush" was all he said realizing a warm breath on my neck that tickled my skin. He places a finger on my lip, telling me I shouldn't talk anymore. This left me speechless for a moment. I did not expect Rob to do that... Not in a million years. I stood there like a lost girl, stoned till I felt Rob's lips move away from my neck. I keep my gaze at him still shocked by what he did. He wasn't looking at me. His eyes were looking somewhere else. Somebody else. I turn my head to see where Rob's eyes were pointing. And then I see him... Liam... Furious like I have never seen him before. I could see his jaw clenched and his eyes were looking at me like daggers to be triggered. I felt my knees shaking and a lump had formed in my throat, not allowing m
Cercy Pov " If he touches one piece of your hair again, I swear I gonna cut his head off and bring it on a plate to you? `´ his lips inches from mine. `´ NO ONE TOUCHES WHAT'S MINE.´´ Breathe. Are we clear, darling? " More than clear, handsome face. Did he just threaten me? I liked it, though! Except it! You like it tough too.Stop it, stupid conscious. " Woww? Now, I'm getting scared. " I giggle at him. " Are you, now? " he says teasingly. " Ehee.. " there goes the flirting. &
CERCY POV The car was another dimension. I have to have this. I felt his gaze on me, but I was just pretending I couldn't understand him. Fuck, I want this car. " I want you," Liam says. Guess I said that out loud. " Khhhkh, so thanks for letting me drive. This is my dream car and it was my dream to ride a car like this one." " Just tell me all your dreams and I'll make them all true." he finishes. That is so romantic. Never thought Liam could be so cute. " Always for you" he then said. As if he could hear
Cercy povRight now, it's just me and him. Nobody else, just two young people who feel something towards each other and a burning flame in those poor hearts.He gets up, sitting behind me, applying sunscreen on my shoulder. As an irony, he does exactly what I did to him. Putting it on and massaging there. He realizes a breath that comes as cold air in my shoulder. Then continues with the neck, placing some circling moves there. Now... I do understand how he felt." Hey, dude, apply sunscreen not massage her!" said Rob with a heavy tone.He doesn't listen to him and keeps doing it on my neck again, placing a gentle kiss there. I quickly turn around looking at him, for the action he just did. He didn't look s
~ Cercy ~I'm not weak. Then why do I fu*ing act like this when I'm around Liam. Why can't I just shout at him, yell at him for what he is doing? Why do I feel like my heart is in a racing game and my knees are being broken ready to fall? Why does it have to be like this?Why can't I be the one in control? The one always a step further, the one to take risks, be the bad guy? I want to yell at him, push him away, he doesn't get to do this, but the voices..., they never stop. Like a hungry wolf, they are waiting for Liam to make a move like our life depends on this, and just like this, I let these inner voices break through my walls and decide what am I going to do next.I take a deep breath..., close my eyes for a second to hear t
" What the actual fuck !? " we hear Icy scream, not too loudly. A look of disbelief was on her face and I noticed she wasn't trying to hide that. For the smallest moment, I forgot what position I was at with Liam, and realized how awkward that moment was for both of us. Breathe. Without saying any other words, Icy leaves the bathroom, and silence covered us. I get out of the tub, wrap a towel around my body, and head toward the door. " Sorry!" he said. " It's okay. It was your fault entirely. I shouldn't have done this either." I say but can't believe what my mouth is saying right now. " Let's pretend this never happened!! I can't believe I did this anyway! You and me.., not gonna happen! " Liam realizes my body from his, a look of disbelief in his eyes. Like he couldn't believe what
~ ROB POV ~ Have you ever been in love with your best friend..., and maybe too scared to tell her the truth? Because that's how I feel towards her. Like a coward, I've been hiding behind a "friend" shadow for a very long time. Like a coward, I've felt the pain when she got hurt and never dared to say her "words". Don't you think I haven't tried? Hell, I love her more than myself. I've said that to myself a million times in front of the mirror, that " it's just a crush"Just a "moment obsession". I've cried myself to sleep at night every time she had a date and came here to ask me how she looked. " Amazing as always" I used to tell her. My heart ached when I left her at the restaurant do
I was hoping it wasn't all a dream, but even if it was one, I wish I could stay like this for a while. Maybe in the morning, I wouldn't feel so empty and lonely inside. Maybe this could fix my broken heart, maybe seeing him in my dream was enough or maybe... chasing stars means falling into space.I opened my eyes, my head still resting on the pillow below. I was just gazing at the sight in front of me. The gorgeous man, lighted by the moon, holding his son on his shoulder, saying sweet things in baby language. That little thing looked so good on him.I could still make some differences. From the side, I was looking. He looked more of a man. Wider shoulders, sharp jaw, and I would say a scarier look on his eyes.., the oceanic eyes I would spend hours looking at before going to sleep. This time it was different. He had changed the last year.Even though I was scared that even if I spoke everything I had in front of me would decipher, I still believed and took a deep breath to say the ne
" I'm leaving you home but I'm staying here on weekdays for sure. Just make sure to tell your parents... I'm sure they won't get mad at you"" Yeah... I'll just sleep at the moment. And I'll find a better time and tell them."" Okay. Be safe"" Bye"After Rob left I went straight to my room and dialed Liam's number again. Maybe this time he would pick it up. I needed to tell him this.I dialed it once or twice but still no response. I decide to leave a message for him. That's what I'm gonna do every time I'll come from my doctor. Maybe one day he will listen to these messages and feel all the stuff I felt.Hey Liam,It's Cercy again. I have some big news for you today. I'm sure you would be so happy about this if you were here. I'm pregnant Liam. And it's a boy. Like I wanted. You remember that day when we were talking about kids and you told me you wanted a girl first... Well, it's a boy. And he is so little. Inside of me now, growing little by little. I had my first appointment toda
After 3 months:" Princess, are you ready?" I hear Rob call my name from behind the door." Yeah, a minute, and I'm done!"It's graduation day. The school year is finally over. It's been three months since I last heard from Liam. I sent him a lot of voice messages the first month, cause it still hurts that he left that way..., but still no response. Maybe he doesn't even use that phone anymore.. Or maybe Sam is right. Maybe he forgot about me. I still wish he would come back and explain everything. I would forgive him, even after everything I've been through after the breakup.I couldn't stop crying and my family thought I was going through depression. I lost a lot of weight lately and cut almost everyone from my life, except Rob. He has been standing all the time with me, helping me out, and even made me leave my house back then. He planned a trip to the east side of the town. He has been a very good support and a wonderful friend these times and I have done nothing to deserve that
Circ,My mate, my love, my beasty girl,I never thought someone would make me smile and laugh as much as you do.. until I saw how much you could make me sad and empty at the same time. Maybe it's love..., maybe it's heartbreak. Or maybe it's because I fell too hard.Never thought I would be able to love or to be loved. Never thought I would love a person so much, to do anything for her not to get hurt. We spent some time together... It's deep in my memory... It's gonna live with me forever. I've lived some of my best moments with you. And you know we even thought about kids' names. I wish we could live all the dreams we had. I wish I would be the one to hold your hand at the alter.. Or when you're giving birth.. Or even when we're taking care of a baby throwing up...I started dreaming again thanks to you Cerc. I believed I could have a happy ending. I got used to your morning kisses or the way you spelled my name to make me angry. I got used to your vanilla skin next to mine.. Or wat
~ Cercy ~I was running through the school halls, trying to find Liam, but he was nowhere to be found. I also tried to reach him through the phone but it went straight to voicemail. I checked the parking lot as well, but his car wasn't there anymore.I was just leaving the girl's bathroom when someone grabs my hand. I turn around to see Rob's smiling face wave a hand at me." Hey Rob, what's up?"" Hey, princess"" Look," we both say at the same time. Then an awkward smile appears on both of our faces. " You go" he then says." Okay," I nood and exhaled a deep breath. " I know that lately, we haven't been spending a lot of time together... But after I said those things to you... I felt like. I was playing with your feelings. Like I didn't care about you... Or our friendship. And I do. I want to be with you, Rob. And love you as a friend... "" Cercy, I know. I told you from the very beginning that if this didn't work we would still be together... With each other... As friends.
" I think I heard you moaning.... Some moments ago. I thought you were with a guy or you have sexual dreams, chica"" Mom, the hell you saying?"Do you think I need that." As you can see noone is here" I say gesturing at the room"" Good" she says and turns at me. " Get down, we're having breakfast... And call Liam as well"" Okayyy momm, just goo"I wait for mom to leave the room and put a crop top on and a pair of leggings to check on Liam." Babe, you ready..." I searched the room but he wasn't there. I thought he'd be here after he left.." Behind you" he whispers at my ear." Where were you?""Around... Since you throw me away from your room"" Stop playing the kid.. And let's go get breakfast.. We have school."We head downstairs and eat breakfast to leave for school. Liam takes the car keys but throws them at me immediately, just when I give him ' the look'. He knows me very well." Why do you go to school anyway? " I ask him." Do all vampires go to school?"" They don't.." he
After four months :Since my last kidnapping, our lives have changed. Liam has become overprotective and won't leave me alone not even for a second.After that night at the lake, we've been good to each other, no more acting childish or clingy. He's been taking really good care of me since he can't stop blaming himself for the things that happened some months ago. He is still living in our house in the room next to mine, even though he has been sleeping next to me these past months. He won't leave me alone..and I cannot say that I don't like it. I like him, sleeping next to me, cuddling with me, and don't even get me started on the sexual tension between us. I've been taking care of that myself, not to forget to take the pill every day, since Liam is the one which can't keep his dirty hands off my body.I am sleeping on my bed when I hear the door crack open. I knew exactly who that was." Liam, what are you doing again?" I ask as I turned the light on "I thought we discussed this..,
" CERC, wake up!" I hear Liam whisper my name in my ear." What... It's not seven yet mom"For a moment everything seemed normal, like those days my mom was shouting my name for me to go downstairs and not be late for school.Like. Why was I always late for school, anyway? I miss school, I miss my mom, my stupid brother.., I miss my old life.I open my eyes and recognise that I wasn't at my place. It was Liam's room. And then I get a flashback of all the things that happened the past days. I turn around and watch Liam wink an eye at me." What Liam?" I ask annoyed." You've slept enough b," he says, pulling me out of the bed. "Come the breakfast is ready. Take a shower and wear that dress over there...I'll be waiting for you downstairs. Hurry up"" But Liam..., please it seven.., I don't eat this early"" Cercy, you have an hour!"" pfff, okay... I'll be down soon."Ugh, this guy. I never wake up this early and he is making me take a shower now. I'm too lazy for that." You can't be
~ Cercy ~This wasn't a breakup, was it? Not. He won't dare think this is it. After all, I've been through I won't leave like this. This is not what I deserve after all. I'm not done yet.I turn around once more since I wasn't that far from the door and I can still hear the breaking noises coming out of his room. I do feel sorry for him, but I feel bad for myself as well.I open the door quickly, I wasn't facing Liam at first but as soon as he hears the door opening he turned around looking at me with a surprised but satisfied look on his face. He didn't talk.., he was just gazing at me.., tears rolling down his face, and don't even get me started with the eyes. They were red like he had been crying for hours... I do feel bad for him now.I walk towards him, determined what to say and do. I walk till I'm the closest to him...,until I feel his breath tickle my forehead.I exhale a deep breath and pat my index finger on his chest one time." How dare you, say that to me, huh?"Then ag
