ECHOES OF LOVE 40
"I have never seen you being so excited about going home, anything you would like to tell us?"Mrs. Mia asked, coming to stand beside his desk."No, I am still feeling tired from the travel and want to get all the rest I can get,"He lied. Rest was the last thing on his mind, he got a text from Liam earlier that he was stepping out for a moment and he wanted to be back before he did and well get ready for him, he also wanted to call Katrina and tell her, he didn't want to keep anything from her, he had never been able to do that, not seen they became friends and it goes both ways."Alright, see you tomorrow Jordan, have a good night's rest,""Thanks, Mia,"He said and wished the other good night, and walked out of the office, hoping not to meet any distraction on the way, and thankfully, he successfully rode the elevator, got into his car, and drove home, the first thing he did when he got home was take a shower, he didn't bother to eat because he was eating with Liam, he sat on the c

Liam was woken by his alarm clock, he reached out to turn it off but his hand couldn't reach it, it's been almost a week since they started dating, okay not up to, since they literally started on Sunday last week and today was Saturday, they both didn't have to go to work and he had plans for the both of them."Turn it off,"Jordan complained covering his ears, Liam reached over him and turned off the alarm."You are awake?"He asked as his eyes met Jordan's his eyes were glaring daggers at him, if he can't so close to him yet, he would have been scared of those eyes but he knew too well they were just ousted from being woken up."What do you expect? Your alarm was ringing so loud, who the fuck alarm on a weekend?"Jordan asked laying his head on his shoulder, the glares went from his eyes."I do because I sometimes have to go to work on Saturday but not today, I just forgot to turn it off,"He replied he didn't remember to turn it off before he went to bed."Next time try and do the

Jordan stared at both of his parents after Liam left in such a hurry, the chicken, they were both looking at him with suspicious eyes, and he looked away."You guys should have told me you were coming, you can't just show up at my door anytime, I told you that so many times already, mom, dad,"He scolded, if they had come just twenty minutes earlier they would have met him and Liam on it, he blushed at the thought."Don't blame us, I did tell you to come home for the weekend,"His mom said in their defense."And I told you I will when I have the chance,""That aside, who is that hottie that just left,"His mom asked him and he rolled his eyes, he took a while."That Liam, my flatmate,""Oh flatmate, is he perhaps single and you know?""Mom, Liam is just my flatmate and if it weren't for Katrina he won't even be here, there is nothing else so get off where ever fantasy land you have gone to,""I didn't say anything, you are the one assuming,"His mom defended."Well, I know how your mi

He should have known there was more to it because he knew Peter was straight but he had just felt maybe the guy wanted to make up for all the shady lies he had told on him but then Peter and his gang of friends had made it a deal to mock him on prom day, imagine having your date show up at your house picks you up in his car and when you expect to land in school in the most stylish way you end up in the middle of nowhere with the guy and his friends mocking you and calling you a creep for being different, that's exactly what Peter and his friends did to him, they told him they didn't need a creep like him at prom left him there, he had walked for thirty minutes plus before he saw a place to make a call, his parents had shown up a few minutes later with an helicopter, they got him changed and well got him to school in the plane, his arrival had been glam and his dad played his date, after prom he did get back at Peter and his crew but he would be forever thankful to his parents for bein

Liam watched the birds chirp, seating on the park sit, his car market a few meters away from him, his mind far away from what he heard earlier before had left, he didn't know how he felt about hearing Jordan say they are just flatmates, he thought they were more than that, he shouldn't have listened in on their conversation, he had gone to work and had not met her there so he had to wait for her to return and had given her the drugs, then he helped Josh since there were so many people to attend to, it took a while and he was sure Jordan's parents must have left already and Jordan would be waiting for him to come back."Just get your ass back to the house, you know he is waiting,"He said to himself as he pulled out his phone."Oh, fuck,"He said getting off the park chair and walking towards his car, he didn't even know his phone had been ringing, he had silenced it after he took that call earlier, Jordan had called him ten times and his mom too gave him six missed calls, he called th

"And then after that? Where did you go to after that, because I know giving someone his drugs doesn't take hours to do and you were gone for seven whole hours,""I don't think I was gone for that long,"Liam argued."Yes, you were, why would I lie? Check your time,""I am sorry I took a while, I didn't meet the person there and had to wait,""Why wait? When you could have just handed it to the pharmacist there today?""I needed to explain to her properly and Josh won't do that plus there were a lot of people there so I helped out,"He explained."And you weren't taking your calls, I didn't even know you were telling the truth, I thought you just didn't want to be here while I talk with my parents,""Why will you think that? I don't lie,"Liam asked even though he knew he did lie a little but still, he did help out at work before going to the park."Yeah, right, everyone does,"Jordan responded, walking away from him, Liam followed behind him."What do you want for dinner? I didn't kno
ECHOES OF LOVE 46
Jordan looked around for Liam, they agreed to meet after work here but he wasn't here and wasn't taking his calls, he should have gone to meet him at work but he thought it would be better to here direct, he wondered why Liam wanted to come here in the first place since he didn't drink and he had told him that but Liam had insisted, which is why he was here."The man act crazy sometimes, but it's okay,"He said as he picked a seat and sat down placing his bag on the next, there were only a few people around, as it was still early, just a few minutes past six, he expected the place to be filled soon as it was Friday which means party day, the waiter came to him and he smiled at her."I am waiting for someone and will order once he gets here,"He said and she smiled and left, he looked around again, trying his number, still not going through, maybe he should just go ahead and make some orders, not like Liam was going to drink anyway, maybe eat yes, but he noticed the man had a hatred fo

"Louis? What about you?"Gigg asked Louis who has been stuffing his mouth full of beef, Jordan couldn't help laughing at his expression."Please, I don't know anyone, apart from these few times that I have and which I spend with you guys I am always at work,"He said adjusting his glasses."That's because you choose not to get a life Louis, it is nobody's fault, we practically work at the same place and I have a fiancee and a life,"Gina accused but Louis didn't even take her serious he just continued eating, somethings never changed and the three people sitting with him right now are one of the things that never change, he should have made more effort to keep a close relationship with them after his fallout with the one who introduced them to him.They ate, drank, and talked for over an hour plus, and occasionally, his phone started ringing, and he hurriedly brought it out of his pocket, and it was the moron that was late, he checked to see if Liam was around but still no sight of hi

Liam walked up to Jordan and hugged him from behind."Hey, babes, you look extra hot today,"He whispered in his ears and Jordan let out a funny laugh."I am hot every day of the year though,"He responded."I agree, wanna go for a walk? The moms are going to send the babies to bed,"He said pulling away from him and reaching out for his hand."Sure, I will love to,"Jordan said and they both walked down the part, taking small steps and just feeling each other's presence."The weather is so nice today, it has been nice all week,"Jordan said. Liam looked down at him and smiled happily, it's been over two years since they got married and not for one day in those two years did he ever regret marrying this man, his world would not have existed if he had not fought to win him back and everyday he wakes up, stare at him in bed and thank his stars that he got him back, for him, the weather have always been good since the day he got Jordan back in his life, there hasn't been a single bad wea

"What do you mean the babies are coming? And how are they coming on the same day or are you pranking me? We still have two weeks right?"Jordan asked but he was already on his way out of the office, he didn't bother to wait for the elevator and just took the stairs, they weren't expecting until next week and this was so sudden and unexpected."I am not pulling a prank on you idiot, May is in labor and she just called,""Oh, I thought you said both of them,""No, meet me at the hospital okay?""Sure, I will be there soon,"He said and Liam hung up without another word, okay at least it wasn't the two women at the same time, he quickly got into his car and zoomed off towards the hospital, on his way there he said a little prayer and hoped that everything will go well and by the end of today they will have one of their pretty angel with them."Liam!"He called when he got into the hospital and found him sitting alone."Hey, baby,""How is May?"He asked."I don't know, we just have to wa

"I can't believe my best friend is going to get married, wow, I am so happy, this is the best thing that had ever happened to me,"Katrina said when she walked into his room, he rolled his eyes at her."Yeah, right, so you mean you pick this moment over your own wedding and when your two devil-angels Steria and Moon were born? I will like to see you say that when Lucas is here,"He teased."Why can't you just let me have a man? Why do you always have to be such a show spoiler? I was having fun and you just had to mention the reasons for my sleepless nights,"She said with a sad pout."Oh, I am going to add that to the list of things I am going to gossip to your husband,"He said and she glared at him."Are you my best friend or are you Lucas's spy?"She asked laying on his bed."That's the bed I spend almost every night ticking Liam on,"He announced and she was up in seconds, brushing the invisible stain off her body with a disgusted look."What the fuck? You could have warned me or
ECHOES OF LOVE 209
Liam rolled over on the bed and smiled when his body came in contact with another, he popped his eyes open to see Jordan sleeping peacefully beside him, memories of the night before flashing through his mind, he couldn't believe it, they were good again, he got him back, Jordan was his again, and his life just got better."Why are you looking at me like that?"Jordan asked as he opened his eyes, Liam felt his heart skip a beat, they never really resolved anything, all Jordan had said was for him to kiss him, what if this wasn't what he thought it was, what if Jordan just wanted them to have sex? He really didn't like the direction his mind was going and shook off the thoughts."Now why are you frowning so early in the morning? Did you have a bad dream??""No, I just, I am just,""What? You are lost for words? Good, that means I did well,"Jordan said touching his face, he still couldn't believe that this was all real, he knew he needed to apologize for real now, so he sat up."Jordan,

Jordan looked up from what he had been doing when his phone rang, he checked who it was and dropped the phone back, it was Liam's mom calling him, he didn't know what to tell her, what could he say when he told his son to fuck off, maybe she wanted to tell him to stay away from her son, he knew that wasn't possible, the phone stopped ringing and he went back to working silently but a few minutes later, it rang again, this time, he decided to pick up."Good day, mom,"He greeted as he walked out of the office towards the resting area, thankfully, no one was in, he entered and sat down."Hi, son, I am sorry to disturb you,"She responded."It's not a problem mom, it must be urgent since you are calling me, what is it?"He asked even though he already had an idea of what she might be calling for."His are you doing Jordan?"She shows shocking him, he shouldn't be shocked by her caring, she has never stopped, ever since Christmas, when she had gotten his contact again, she had made sure t
ECHOES OF LOVE 207
Like he expected it wasn't going to be easy getting Jordan back but that didn't mean he wa going to give up, no he wasn't, Jordan endured a lot and him giving up right after the first rejection would be him not trying at all, he wasn't going to back out until Jordan takes him back, he didn't want live life without him by his side, there won't be a reason for his living then.Once again he was at Jordan’s apartment waiting for him even after he has been rejected every day for the past two weeks, he just couldn’t give up, he saw Jordan’s car and got out of his, running to him before he could enter his apartment.“You are here again? What the fuck?”Jordan asked glaring at him.“Yes, I am,”He answered.“Why can't you just take a hint and leave me alone? Stop coming here, stop trying please just stop, there is no point doing all of these, I won't go back to you, I have made up my mind and nothing you can do will change that,"Jordan yelled at him."Please don't push me away Jordan, I beg

"What? What do you fucking have to say to me now Liam? What?"Jordan yelled at him, he couldn't even bring himself to believe that this was even real, that Liam was here, and that he was finally whole, that he finally remembered."How could you leave just because I asked you to? You said you love me Jordan, that you will never leave me but you did, you fucking left me and took all traces of us that would have let me remember anything from me, there was no sign of you in the house we shared, nothing, and you went away,"Liam let out, Jordan couldn't believe he was saying all these to him after everything he put him through, right now he had a lot on his mind, Kat went into labor when they were on the phone together and he was worried about her.“What are you even talking about?”“Why didn’t you stay? You said you would no matter what,”Liam said."You didn't give me the chance to stay Liam, don't talk like I just left you, you told me to get off your face, you told me I wasn't welcomed
