Liam is outside, waiting for Fallon in her car.


Fallon's POV

"You dating that?", Beck asks with a disrespectful undertone. "No, I'm marrying that", I correct him, "got a problem with that?". "Yes I do! And what is this Carrington thing about? You're Jade West and not some rich bitch called Fallon Carrington! ", he asks, he's clearly upset. "Why do you care?! We broke up 8 years ago, what is your problem?! You can't just show up here as if nothing ever happened! As if you never did anything!", I yell at him. This is enough! Who does he think he is?

"Fallon, what's happening?!", Blake asks me. Also upset. And annoyed. Who cares? I turn to him and Cristal and say: "None of your business." "Doesn't seem like it", Cristal says. "Dear stepmother, just stay out of my business!", I answer. "Jade, calm down", Beck says wanting to relax me. "The only thing that makes me freak out is your appearance!", I shoot to him. "Jade?!", Blake asks. He's obviously not a fan of that name, since he never liked my teenager-self anyways. I glance at him. He walks towards me and grabs my arm saying: "Fallon, come with me!" And there he goes, dragging me to the living room.

"Jade?! What the hell, Fallon?! You turning into your old gothic self again or what?! And where's Liam?! Isn't that your old stupid boyfriend?! If you cheat on Liam, I swear to god, I-", he keeps blaming me but I can't listen to this shit any longer. "RELAX", I scream. Otherwise he would never hear me. "I am not turning into my old self again and I would never cheat on Liam! Unlike you since you cheated on Cristal! Oh, yes I know about you and Laura. Liam does as well. He saw Beck already and he's waiting for me in my car. He doesn't know who he is, though... He thinks he's some stranger that is looking for a certain person named Jade West and he's just at the wrong place", I explain. "You better get rid of him... and do not talk about that with Cristal", my father demands and walks away. I do what I want.

I turn around to kick my highschool boyfriend out, but as I turn around I bump into Liam, who is looking very unhappy about this whole situation. Fuck.

"Who is that man, Fallon? Don't you dare lying to me", he threatens me. He's absolutely serious. I've never experienced him this way before... Only at that ski trip when I followed him and Trashley. "Uhm... No one important. I will explain everything to you later, but it's getting rude to let him wait this long, don't you think?", I answer nervously. I must sound so stupid right now. Like those cheap chicks who cheated on their boyfriend... Only that I didn't do anything. Why am I feeling so guilty then? With that I try to move away, but he grabs my arm and says: "It's also rude to lie to your boyfriend, don't you think?" That was tough. "I don't care about that dude. He can wait. Now explain. What is going on?"

This is getting highly awkward. Anyways we sit down on the couch and I begin talking: "Liam, first of all I want you to know, that I did not do anything! I didn't cheat on you or anything like that. I mean I was with you all the time. You know that. And you also know that my heart only beats for you... God this was cheesy. But it's true. I love you, Liam and-", he cups my cheeks with his hands and relaxes me: "Calm down, baby. I know you didn't do anything", he chuckles, "I never said that anyways. I know you love me. But I also know you are hiding something. I just want to know who he is and what's going on. No need to be all freaked out. I love you. No matter what. And I'll be by your side. No matter what. Remember?" This actually helps me a bit... He leans in and kisses my cheek. He gives me a tell-me-what's-going-on-look and I continue talking: "Well, he's my boyfriend from highschool..." Liam seems to be annoyed... "And why does he call you Jade? Also whole Atlanta knows we're engaged and also everybody knows you as Fallon Carrington. Fal, just tell me what's going on. Tell me everything. How should we get married, if you don't completely open up to me?" Ugh, why is he so sweet?

"Okay, so he thinks my name is still Jade West. I can tell from your face that you wonder why I said still. That's because in highschool my name was actually Jade West. I hated Blake back then. My dream was to become an actress. I was at Hollywood Arts Highschool. As you can probably tell, Blake hated my dreams. He used to say that my dreams would never come true and it's just a waste of time. That's why I changed my name. You have to know, I was a completely different person when I was young. I was a goth. I was meaner than now and everybody used to fear me. I changed my name to Jade when I was like fourteen years old. West is Alexis' maiden's name so I used that one as mir surname, because I actually missed her so much. But Blake was wrong! My dreams would definitely become true! I was an amazing actress and as you know my singing voice is also amazing... But then, when something happened, I changed my mind... I started to believe him", I pause here, because I am nearly crying. I know that Liam can see that. He puts his arm around my shoulders and asks: "What happened, Fal?" His voice is so calm... "You know, Beck and I started dating when I was fourteen. Beck is his name by the way. We were so happy. We dated for four years... Until I found this asshole cheating on me... I saw him making out with someone else. Cheating on me with the person I hated the most. She was always flirting with him, starting on her first day at our fucking school!", I am screaming already. I need to calm down. Liam pulls me closer to him for me to calm down "Anyways that's when I changed. That was the thing that changed my life forever. It ruined me. I was miserable. I broke up with him and I didn't go to school for what felt like ages. I never faced him again. I was always jealous because of every little thing, because I was scared of exactly that happening. And then it happened. Tori, the girl he cheated on me with, and he started dating. After graduation I moved here. I changed back to Fallon Carrington and started with these business things. When I was 21 I moved to Denver and as you know three years ago when I was 23 I came back here again. And here I am crying over this shit. And now he's here probably begging for me to get back together with him. He will ruin my life once again, Liam, and I'm so afraid of that. I don't ever wanna lose you", I stop talking and bury my face into his chest. His shirt is pretty wet already from all my tears. "Shhh shhh", Liam calms me down. He strokes my hair which he knows is one of the best ways to calm me down.

After a while I sit up. There are still tears in my eyes. I must look miserable right now, I bet my eyes are all swollen. "I am going to kick his ass back to the hole he came out from right now", Liam announces aggressively and already stands up. "No no no noo", I stutter also standing up and grabbing is right hand with both of mine, "You are not going to do that. You already did so much for me. I am going to handle this on my own. I have my ways. He will see that I changed a lot anyways." He turns around to face me "Fal, I don't know if this is a good idea..." I give him some puppy eyes and he finally gives in: "Okay, but if he does anything wrong, I swear-" "Okay, okay", I cut him off.
