Daddy Why D'you Do It
Chapter 16
I ran upstairs into Liam's room and shut the door.
I could hear faint argueing downstairs until it finally stopped and I heard a door close.
I looked at Mike who was sleeping peacefully on Liam's bed.
It must have been a long day for him.
He went to school this morning like everyday but look where we were now.
I checked the time on my phone.
7:32
That meant an hour and a half until my mom would realize that we weren't going to come home.
Liam entered the room and sat next to me on the floor.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"Your girlfriend is my dad's girlfriend's sister," I said through gritted teeth.
"Oh.And she's not my girlfriend."
I rolled my eyes,"Thanks for the hospitality, but I think Mike and I need to leave."
Liam looked at me with wide eyes, "What? No! It's going to get dark soon! And where will you go?"
"Not now, smart one. In the morning"
He seemed to relax a little.
After a few minutes of awkward silence, he finally spoke.
"I-I'm sorry about what happened with Lindsay. I didn't mean for it to happen. She kissed me."
I narrowed my eyes at him, "That's what everybody says."
He sighed.
After another minute, he mumbled, "I'm sorry. I made a mistake. But I'm not lying to you."
I didn't speak.
"Scarlet, I know this sounds corny, but give me another chance. I need you," he said gently.
I was speechless and confused and frustrated and, quite frankly, I didn't know what to do.
He took my hand and placed it over his heart.
"Please," he murmured.
I sighed.
"Liam, when we started going out, I barely knew you. But, I trusted you and that was a mistake. I've been through a lot and I can't trust you again so quickly. Maybe in time, but not now. I-I need to heal."
He closed his eyes for a moment, but when he opened them, they were determined.
"We're friends now, right?"
I nodded.
"Then I'll show you that you can trust me."
I smiled a little.
Liam checked his watch.
"Why don't I order us some pizza?" he asked.
I nodded, I was starving.
"I'll go call them right now."
"No, if you pick it up, they would give it to you faster. Plus, it would still be fresh because the pizza place is only 3 blocks away."
"Sure, I'll get my car. Do you want to come?"
"I'll stay here with Mike," I replied.
He pecked my cheek and I blushed, though I didn't push him away.
He got up smirking and went downstairs.
I waited until I heard him leave.
I got up from the floor and walked over to Mike, who was cuddling Mr.Bear.
I shook his shoulder.
He opened his eyes a little, "Mmm?"
"Mike, get up, we have to leave."
