Liam decided to make their last night together before his surgery a really special one, so he planned the best way to make it special, he woke up early on Thursday morning with Jordan in his arms and sneaked out of the room to call Jordan's mom."Liam, how are you? Why are you calling so early in the morning?"She asked. He smiled and greeted her."I was wondering if you can help me get Jordan out of the house until evening, I really want to do something special before we have to leave for the hospital tomorrow and I don't want him to be here while I do that,"He explained and she yelped in excitement, he smiled knowing that was the reaction he had expected from her, she was so predictable in a good way."You know you called the right person, I will help of course,""Thank you, mom,"He said and the call ended, he went back into their room and lay beside Jordan who was still sleeping peacefully, he had Lucas to thank for him still sleeping right now, he had been so shocked and amazed

"Baby, come on in,"Liam said after a few minutes of just standing there and staring at each other, he reached out for Jordan's hand and pulled him into the house, and closed the door."Oh, my God, Liam this is so thoughtful of you, I am impressed,"Jordan said when they got to the living room."You like it?""It course, I live it, my mom knew about this right? That's why she asked me to come around?"He asked."Yes, even though she didn't know what I had planned, I just told her I wanted this night to be special,"He replied. Pulling him to the dining room and pulling out a chair for him to seat, he sat down next to him."This is beautiful Liam, no wonder mom didn't let me eat much, I love this, thank you, I love you,""I love you too baby, now let's eat, there is more,"Liam said serving him food."Now, I want to skip this and just go to the more,""No, we eat first,"Liam scolded, Jordan let out a laugh and they started eating in silence, he brought out the wine and watched as Jord

Liam opened his eyes again a few hours after they went to sleep again, it was probably noon already but he couldn't tell, he was too lazy to look for his cellphone and check the time, he lay on the bed with his eyes open, Jordan's soft snores filling his ears, he didn't know how he was feeling, he couldn't just place the feeling right now, it was unnameable, it was a mixture of fear and excitement, fear of the unknown and excitement because he knew that after this weekend, he would finally be rid of the barrier that had been a major problem in his life even though he never did acknowledge it was a problem until it was taking his life away, the doorbell rang and he quickly got up to go answer the door so that Jordan won't be disturbed.He walked to the door wondering which one of the parents was here already, he knew it would be them, he opened the door and his mom's face greeted him."How did I know you will be the first to turn up? Mom? It is still early in the morning you know,"He

"Kelvin, the only reason I am meeting you is because you said it is important, so go straight to the point, I don't have all day,"Jordan said. He shouldn't be here in the first place but he didn't want Kelvin showing up at the apartment, his phone had rung when Jordan got up from the bed and he had been shocked by who called him, he didn't even know how he got his new number, but he wasn't even going to ask, all he needed to do was block him after this meetup, he is supposed to be at home with Liam getting ready to move to the hospital."You look good,"Kelvin said and Jordan eyed him."Bro, the fuck do you want from me? You said it was important,""Why are you so hostile towards me Jordan? I just want to make peace with you, can't you see that?"Kelvin asked and Jordan let out a breath to prevent himself from saying anything that might be offensive. here he was sitting with Kelvin at a park when he should be home with Liam, he couldn't believe he drop all the way here for this, Kelv

This wasn't going the way Jordan thought it would, Liam just stood there staring at him obviously disappointed but he wasn't saying anything which was worst than talking and them fighting. He knew he was wrong for just leaving without telling him."Liam? Aren't you going to say a word to me?"He couldn't help asking, Liam looked as if he was going to say something but kept quiet again, Jordan stood waiting for fir him to say something, anything, he should clear the air and tell him why he met up with Kelvin."Liam, say something, will you, I can't stand your silence right now, please,"He whispered."I don't know, I don't want to sound offensive but I don't know what to say that won't be considered offensive because I feel offended for some reasons and it might be unreasonable so I am trying to settle whatever dispute I have within before saying anything,"Liam responded. He was being sincere with his feelings which Jordan found admirable but then again, he shouldn't keep his conflict

They got to the hospital a little later than they had planned, it was all his fault so Jordan didn't say a word, they didn't meet the surgeon at the hospital as he was on break and would be around in the early hours of tomorrow, they were lewd to the VIP room in the hospital, it was a whole room to themselves, they just dropped off Liam's bag and they had to go do some tests."I feel like all this poking is just a deliberate act to make me feel pain even though it might not be needed,"Liam said as the phlebotomist drew his blood making the young man laugh."That's not true,"The phlebotomist said in between laughers."I am saying that's it, because what's the point and what more, I know you, you have pierced so many holes in my skin than I can count, why didn't you store those blood,"Liam complained."We can't store the blood because after a while it can't be used again, as the analysis carried out with such blood won't be accurate,"The young man explained."Just say you are scared

"Yes, he will be here by morning,""Okay, he still hasn't signed,""He will do that when he gets in, thank you for everything doctor,"She said and the doctor nodded."What about the scan?"Liam asked, talking for the first time since the doctor got in."Oh, that's good too, you know the way it is right?"He asked Liam who nodded."One more thing, you have eaten today right?"He asked and Liam nodded."Yes, I have, I ate before coming to the hospital,""Okay, it is already past seven pm so you can't eat again,"The doctor revealed, Jordan's eyes met with Liam's, he didn't seem to be aware even though he was in the medical field too."Excuse me? I can't eat? But why?""No, you can't, don't worry you can still take water, but not too much,""Okay,"Liam agreed even though it was obvious that he didn't like the idea."That will be all for now, I will like you to take a rest and make sure not to overthink anything, I know it will be hard to do but it will be better if you don't think abou
