I Love to Hate You
Chapter 18
"So I take it you like me too?" Liam asked once we pulled apart. 
"Yeah. I really, really like you Liam. I guess I was just too caught up in the past, and I couldn't make myself believe that you had actually changed." I admitted. 
"My feelings for you haven't. I still love you." he said. Love? I don't think I can go from hating Liam one day to loving him the next. So I didn't say it back. 
"So, is someone gonna let us in?" I asked, starting to get cold from the rain. 
"I have a spare key under the mat." he replied. 
"Then why didn't you use it before?" I asked him. 
"Because I was afraid that then you wouldn't kiss me. And come on, every girl wants to be kissed in the rain." he said, smiling sheepishly. 
"Good point." I said, following him into his house after he unlocked the door. 
"Let me go get you something dry." he said, noticing my soaking wet clothes. 
He came back a minute later with a white vneck shirt and a pair of girls' jeans. 
"Why do you have these?" I asked, then figured it was from when some girl spent the night. Obviously. Why wouldn't he have girls' clothes here?
"They're my cousins. She left them here after she came to visit for a while." he explained. Oh. So I had been wrong. Still, that didn't mean anything.
"Okay. Where's the bathroom?" I asked, and he pointed down the hall. 
I walked into the bathroom and changed into the clothing. 
"What movie do you want to watch?" he asked while I was changing. 
"Doesn't matter!" I replied, tugging on the skinny jeans. They actually fit pretty well. I pulled the shirt over my head and then walked back to the living room. 
"Mind if we watch this?" he asked, holding up Friends With Benefits. 
"I love Justin Timberlake!" I exclaimed while sitting on the couch next to him. 
I've always wanted to be part of a flash mob, I thought during that part of the movie. I decided to mention it to Liam. 
"Hey Liam. Have you ever been in a flash mob?" I asked. 
"Actually, no. I haven't. You?" he asked back. 
"Never. But I really want to be part of one. Or just see one happen. They seem so cool!" I said, getting excited about this now. 
"Maybe one day you'll see one." he said, smiling at me. I bit my lip and stared down at the ground. I lifted my head up just in time to see that he made the flash mob for her. It was even their song. How cute! 
"That's adorable. Why can't all guys be like that?" I asked. 
"You want to have a friend with benefits?" he asked me. 
"Not really. Although it's not complicated." I said. Oh crap. Shut up, Carly. 
"So you have had a friend with benefits before?" he aked. 
"Uh, yeah. But it's over." I responded. That was awkward. 
"Hey Carly? Can I take you out on a real date?" he asked me. 
"Hmm..I gotta think about that." I replied, winking at him. 
"I'm joking. I would love to go on a date with you." I said, just as the movie ended. I got off the couch and grabbed my phone and wallet. 
"I gotta get home." I said, kissing Liam on the cheek. 
"Oh, okay. See you later?" he asked, and I nodded my head. He put his arms around my waist, pulling me close. He lifted my chin with his thumb and brought his lips to mine. I smiled while kissing him, then when we pulled away I said one last goodnight before opening the door and coming face to face with Britney. 
"What is she doing here?" Britney asked, walking past me and bumping my shoulder on the way. She walked in like she owned this place. 
"I think the better question is what are you doing here?" he asked her. 
"You invited me over. You said you wanted to take me on a real date or something." she said, examining her nails. What? Was Liam just playing me? He looked at me and had this apologetic look in his eyes. Oh my god. He really did tell Britney he wanted to take her on a date. But he told me he loved me! 
I ran out of his house and into my car, then drove off. I drove back to my flat, and slammed the door once I got there. 
"Is everything alright?" Zayn asked, rushing to the living room. 
"Liam is a nasty, lying jerk." I responded, trying to calm down. 
"What did he do?" he asked me, trying to get the full story. 
"He told me he loved me." I started off. 
"That's not so terrible. Is it?" Zayn asked me, and I shook my head.
"No, but he told me he wanted to take me on a real date. Then right as I was about to leave, Britney walks in and said that Liam told her he wanted to take her on a real date. He's playing me Zayn!" I said, tears starting to fall from my eyes. This can't happen. I won't let Liam win again. 
"It's going to be okay. Trust me." Zayn said, grabbing hold of my hand as we sat down on the couch. I can't let this happen again. I don't want to go back to hating Liam. I actually wanted to do the opposite. But with Britney in the way, that was going to be hard. So I had to get even. 
And what better way to get even than to tell him about Zayn and me?
