“Good morning.”Liam didn’t need to turn to reply as Steve was walking by his side. “Good morning.”“How was your night?” Liam stopped to reply. “Shorter than usual due to a certain someone but it was worth it. Yours?”“It was great,” Steve said. “Oh, look. Jasmine.”“Jas,” Liam called out to her. “Hey, morning.”“Hey,” she returned his greeting, her eyes shifting to Steve. “Hi.”“Hi,” Steve waved. “Right, I wanted to ask. When are we going to be starting our project?”“I thought Liam was the only nerd here,” Jasmine said, a hint of playful disappointment in her voice.“Trust me, it’s nothing like that,” Steve responded. “I wouldn’t mind leaving the whole job for Li

"What are your plans for after school?"It was a Friday and Liam, Jasmine and Nick all had English. The walk to the class was rather silent, probably because they all had different things on their minds.It was the day of Steve's match and Liam couldn't get it off his mind. He was going to be present, certainly, but he didn't want to be there alone. Jasmine knew him way too well to not be surprised at him attending an high school football match voluntarily. The first and last time he went to one was when Chad was playing and Jas wanting to be the supporting girlfriend, forced him to tag along.Now he was attending a high school match because his boyfriend was playing."Go straight home and sleep," Jasmine replied, not stopping to reply. The trio were becoming comfortable around each other enough to say things without thinking."Um... nothing much. Just chill a little bit and maybe

Trigger warning//~ Talks about deaths included.7:00am.It was the earliest Liam had woken up on a weekend. Normally he'd sleep in on weekends with Jasmine and whenever they both woke up, they'd try to eat whatever they could make out of the ingredients in the kitchen. But it was different that weekend. Jasmine wasn't around or coming over and the kitchen was empty.Steve offering to help him with cooking was going to be perfect. He wasn't that bad of a cook but he was sure he could use a hand. Especially one from someone who seemed so confident about his cooking.By 7:30am he was all freshened up. He headed downstairs and served the last bits of cereal the carton had to offer, feeling the wide empty space in the bowl with milk.By the time he was done with everything that needed to be done which included tidying the kitchen and taking out the trash, it was almo

Liam's mum was finally getting discharged and he was more than ready to welcome her. The dining table was filled with food- both freshly cooked and the ones from yesterday cooking frenzy. It was perfect and he just couldn't wait to welcome her.Brian had offered to pick her from the hospital while Liam stayed back at home to anticipate. He had tidied the house again for the millionth time. Her room was finally going to be getting company for the first time in years. He used new curtains and the beds also had new covers on them. The slippers he got while shopping with Steve were also laying next to her bed and he replaced her rug with the softest one the mart had to offer.He wasn't going out but he was dressed up. He wore a black and white striped turtle neck top and new jeans. His hair was washed and combed down the way she always did when he was younger.He paraded the living room, his phone in his hand as he pat

"Heyyy guysssss," Liam greeted in the most cheerful voice. "Good morningggg.""Hey good morning," Nick replied, giving Jasmine a confused look. "You seem to be in a really good mood. Something amazing happened?"Liam smiled as he remembered how his day started. Instead of being woken up by his alarm clock, he was woken up with slow gentle taps from his mum. It felt like a good dream but it was real. When he headed downstairs to have his usual cereal for breakfast, she was in the kitchen and handed him a Ziploc of sandwiches."Yeah," he couldn't take the smile off his face. "My mum's finally home. She finally got discharged.""Oh, that's great news," Nick sounded genuinely happy for him. "I bet you're so happy.""He is," Jasmine did the replying. "I have good news too but before that."She pulled Liam closer to her. "You sneaky little rat. You're not goi

Liam knew something was off the minute his alarm clock didn't ring at 6:30am.His eyes slowly opened and he looked around him. Still sleepy, he tried to place a finger on what was happening.He wasn't in his bedroom. The walls around him were painted white instead of blue and there were unfamiliar vases containing artificial flowers."Oh my God!" His eyes flew open he finally realized where he was. He looked down and saw Steve sleeping next to him. "Steve!""Yeah?" Steve got up, rubbing his face sleepily. "What's it?""What am I doing here?" Liam demanded, getting to his feet. "What happened?""Yesterday," Steve was finally fully awake. "What? Don't you remember? It's not like you were drunk.""No I do," Liam ran his hands through his hair. "I remember waiting for you then i slept off. Yeah where were you? You weren't replying any of my t

Liam felt weak.On Steve leaving the rooftop, Liam stayed there, a million things going on his head. The anger in his head had subsided, now replaced with a feeling of anguish.Steve's words echoed in his head and he hated every single of them. They made him mad. They made him confused. They made him anxious. They made him feel emotions he couldn't explain.After a while, he headed downstairs. Having spent close to ten minutes on the rooftop, he hoped and believed the hallways were going to be empty. The last thing he wanted was walking through a hallway filled with people.Like he hoped, the hallways were empty when he got there. As fast as he could, he walked out to the usual spot Brian parked the car."Liam!" Jasmine rushed towards him as she spotted him. He internally groaned as he walked towards her, Brian and the car. "God, I looked everywhere

Liam stepped out of his house expecting to meet Brian standing by the car waiting for him. Instead, he met Brian alongside Jasmine smiling. "Jas," he called out as he walked towards her. "What are you doing here?" "Isn't it obvious?" she asked, getting into the car. "I'm here to get a free ride to school." Liam shook his head, smiled and joined Jas at the back seat. "You were literally here yesterday." "How are you?" she asked in a voice lower than normal as Brian turned the car on. "Fine," Liam replied, adjusting his backpack. He knew what she meant so he didn't bother uselessly beat around the bush. "We spoke yesterday." On the phone till past midnight. Their conversation from the previous day didn't end at them confirming they were still one month boyfriends. They talked about random things until Steve finally sounded completely sober. They tal

Bye, mum!" Liam dashed out the house, his backpack on his shoulder. He was late and Steve was outside already waiting for him. After a week, school was finally open. The past one week had gone by with him and Steve being around each other. When they weren't texting each other, Steve was at Liam's whiling away time. It felt different. They were both around each other comfortably with no fear. Jasmine had warned Steve to not break Liam's heart, Trevor asking Liam to do the same. Their friends were aware of their relationship and their parents were in support of it- it was just perfect. "Good morning, babe," Steve said, watching Liam opened the door and get in. "Hey, good morning," Liam smiled at him, dropping his backpack in the back seat. "I'm not too late, am i?" "You are." "Oops," Liam bit his lip, pulling

Liam stepped out of the Uber, anxious. He was at Steve's house.He walked to the entrance and pressed the doorbell. He wasn't expecting an empty house. Trevor could be at home with him."Liam," Oliver, Steve's dad was the one that opened the door. "You're here.""Good afternoon sir," he slightly bowed then stepped into the house. "Yes, I am.""Why didn't come visiting again?" he asked as he led the way. "I was almost afraid I'll never see you again.""No, of course not," Liam laughed nervously."You're here to see Steve, right?" Oliver asked after a minute of silence, Liam nodding. "Thank you.""Uh?""Did you guys fight?" he asked. "Was it a really huge fight?"Liam smiled. "Yeah something like that.""Oh," Oliver sighed. "You guys shouldn't argue. Look at Steve now, sul

Empty houses, shut doors and tears soaked pillows.Liam had never been that glad his mum was out of town for a business trip. Not caring about how much the Uber was going to charge him for ordering so late, he ordered a Uber from Trevor's place and was able to get home in about thirty minutes.On getting home, he locked the doors, turned off all the nights and headed to his room. Tears filled his eyes as he climbed his bed, pulling his duvets close to him.He was hurt. He was in so much pain he almost felt like his heart couldn't handle it. His biggest fear finally came true and he had no one but himself to blame.His phone vibrated in his pocket and he wiggled to take it out. It was a call from Steve. With even more tears rolling down his cheeks, he declined the call.Steve obviously wasn't getting the message that Liam didn't want to talk to him as he kept on

It was just another party at Trevor's with Steve picking Liam up.It was evening and Liam was all dressed up and ready. Jasmine wasn't attending the party but promised to attend the actual Halloween party leaving Liam to wait for Steve alone."You look really nice," Steve commented on checking Liam out. "And no, don't tell me you're wearing just another regular t-shirt and jean cause damn, you'd look fine in even the most simple clothes."Liam beamed. He knew he looked good when he looked into the mirror. He was wearing a dark colored turtle necked top and grey ripped jeans. His hair was brushed and shone. He had Steve's necklace on, glistening as he walked. "Thank you.""You're welcome," Steve turned the car on. "Tomorrow's Halloween. What are you wearing?""Just a t-shirt and jeans," Liam looked out of the window. "Told you I'm not a fan of all those things."

"School's closed for a week!"The unexpected announcement give life to a positive response from the crowd. It was like music to their ears to hear school was going to be locked.It was a Monday morning and they were ready to leave. Liam had spent the previous night in silence, going to bed immediately after shutting Jasmine up. He was positive Nick was avoiding him as much as he was- he didn't sleep in the tent that night.Liam was avoiding Steve and he knew it. He packed his bags and left to wait by the bus alone. When it was time to get into the bus, he got in and sat in the farthest seat.Liam caught Steve walking into the bus and he immediately shifted his gaze. Immediately, he shut his eyes and rested his head on the window."Liam?"He recognized the voice and knew it was best to not acknowledge it. Shutting his eyes even tighter, he ignored Steve's voic

Jasmine's team didn't win the treasure hunt either but at least she was able to come out smiling and laughing with Steve and Trevor."How was the treasure hunt?" she asked when the game was over. "Right, you were paired with Nick. Must have been very awkward.""Not really," Liam shook his head. "We decided not to play in my team.""What?""You heard me right," he couldn't even laugh at himself. "Me and my group members decided we weren't interested in the game. It was cool. I didn't have to stress myself.""How depressing," Jasmine smiled, sadly."How was yours? Playing with Steve and Trevor?"He was curious on how actual playing the games went but he was more curious on how it was being on the same team with Steve."It was fun!" Jasmine didn't need to exclaim for Liam to know it was really fun. "And honestly, T

By seven am, Steve was already at Liam's.Liam was also ready. Dressed in a black sweater and dark jeans, he was waiting outside with his bag next to him.Steve arrived and they bid Liam's mum goodbye then left. The ride to school was cheerful, both having sandwiches Steve made for breakfast and talking about music and food."Hiiiiii," Jasmine excitedly said as she spotted them at school. "Great. We're all going.""Yeah." Replies were mumbled and in unison."Come on let's go," she linked arms with both of them. "I heard the bus would be moving in about fifteen minutes. Let's get our name tags now."They got their name tags, Liam and Steve helping each other put it on. They then headed outside to where the rest of the students were."Do you know if Nick would be coming too?" Liam asked Jasmine, looking around him.

"Did you get home late yesterday?""No not really," Jasmine replied Liam, taking out books from her locker. "You could have texted to ask if you were curious.""I would have but I got all," he stopped to think. "Busy?""Busy? Cleaning up or what?""Nah," he watched her slam her locker shut. "More like emotionally busy.""I don't get you.""I told my mum, Jasmine."Jasmine stopped in her tracks. "You did what?""I told her," he bit his lip. "About me and Steve. No, don't freak out. Not the whole details but point is, she knows I like him.""Damn," Jasmine was obviously surprised. "I did not see that coming. What did she say?"She was cool," Liam replied, remembering. "She told me not to let go of someone I like so easily.""And?"
