Save Me
Chapter Eleven.
Paige's P.O.V.
I walked out of Ryan's house in tears. He had taken advantage of me once again. I step into the warm summer night and start walking home. Once I get home I get changed into my sweatpants and hoodie and listen to the voicemails on my phone. 5 were from Kate, 2 from my mom and 1 from Liam. I hesitated to listen to Liam's at first but finally pressed it. "hey it's Liam, just calling to make sure you got home safe, um about what you said earlier today.....I understand, I'll leave you alone if I'm a bother....anyways, see you around, bye"
Hot tears rolled down my cheeks, and stung my eyes. I wiped them away and instantly called Kate. I told her what happened and she told me she was on her way over as fast as she could. I let Kate and she gave me a long hug telling me everything was alright. I also told her about what Ryan did. Kate hugged me tighter as I cried into her shoulder. "You have to tell Liam the truth, Zayn texted me how he was devastated, but wanted to do the right thing, Paige you have to tell him the truth".
"I know" I mumble into her shoulder and finally pull away.
I get my phone and text Liam the honest truth. It takes a while for him to reply, but when he does, it makes me smile. Then having enough courage, I decided to finally do it, I was going to break up with Ryan, whether he liked it or not. I called him up I said "Ryan, it's over, it's been over for a while now, but today I'm putting my foot down, no more, goodbye"
I hung up having the most amazing feeling inside. Kate smiled at me and hugged me tightly.
"Wanna stay the night?" I ask Kate
"Of course" she says.
We make dinner and decide since its Friday night it's going to be movie night. Kate asked if we could invite the boys over, I hesitated for a moment then agreed as I ran upstairs to get dressed into my pajama's. As I was putting my hair up, the doorbell rang, and 5 noisy boys entered my house. I laughed to myself and tightened my pony tail. I got my pajama's on and went downstairs.
Kate was leading them over to the couches and started to decide on what movie we should watch. I said Hi to all of them and started to make the snacks. I brought them over just as the movie started. I sat inbetween Liam and Kate and tucked my knees up to my chest. Every few minutes my phone would buzz, I tried to pretend I didn't hear it when Liam asked what the noise was. When the movie ended it was already 2:00am. As the boys started to leave i quickly said "You know, you guys could stay if you wanted to.."
"Are you sure your mom would be okay with that?"
"Don't worry, she is on a business trip in New york and won't be back till Tuesday"
"Okay" the boys say undoing their jackets and shoes.
"Here let me just get the pillows and sleeping bags that are in the attic" I say.
"I'll help you" says Liam and follows me upstairs and to the closet that has the door to the attic.
We both climb up and I turn on the little light bulb. The room flickers to light as all the chests, and old pictures are revealed. "Wow" says Liam looking around admiring the paintings.
"Yeah, this used to be my favourite place when I was younger, I would come hide up here when my parents would argue."
"How old were you?" asks Liam.
"I was six..I still remember the day my dad left, my mom and him had this really big fight, such a big one that while I sat on our couch with my mom, my dad flipped the coffee table over and ran upstairs to pack his clothes. I followed him upstairs, crying, begging him to stay, but all he did was push me out of the way and leave the house, he never said goodbye. I ran up here and cried my eyes out.. I didn't come back downstairs until finally my mom carried me down after 2 days." I say holding the tiny doll that I held. "He was a horrible man, he only cared about himself" I pause then say "I was depressed for years, then I met Ryan, and he lit up my world, taking the darkness away. Until he suddenly turned into this monster that only cares about himself. The darkness came back and it was horrible. Nothing seemed to be okay, life felt like it wasn't worth living, then I met you and everything lit back up again."
