They Don't Know About Us

Your Tears Fall Down Like The Showers That Are British - Chapter 59

*SHELBYS POV*
It had been two weeks since I'd called Paige. Becky was living with me for a week while she got her head sorted, she wasn't going back, no way. I felt sorry for her I mean its not nice losing a child but she shouldn't blame Niall. Just thinking about this made me realise how messed up my life had been with them. I mean I love them all so so much but. I deleted Liam's number and all the others, unfollowed them on Twitter apart from Paige. Yeah I'm a bitch but it hurt. I am happy but you know I needed time. But I was going to refollow them and that when I was ready. I still had paps following me, they made a big deal about how, 'louis tomlinson ex gotten law degree.' But I wasn't bothered. I poured myself a glass of wine and sat watching Geordie Shore, fighting the urge to pick up my phone and text Paige. I needed to be strong. A knock at the door caught my attention and I got up to answer it. I gasped as a drenched Liam stood in the doorway, looking uncertainly at the floor.

I went to say something but he beat me to it. 'Shelby I'm sorry, I shouldn't of let you leave, it was my chance and I messed it up but I want you, no I need you.' I just stood there not knowing what to say. Eventually I seemed to remember where I was and walked back into the living room picking up my glass and downing it in one. I picked up the bottle to pour another but Liam grabbed it and put it on the side. 'For fuck sake Shelby just listen okay, I love you.' And that's when it took over, all the pain and confusion and loneliness I'd felt without him. I thought it was Louis it wasn't, we were both finished with that relationship months ago. I felt a stray tear run down my face and looked at liam, his perfect face. I wanted to apologise to tell him I loved him too but nothing was coming out. He pulled me into his arms and I cried into his chest breathing in deeply trying to calm myself. 'Don't go, I can't.' He shh'd me calming as I clung to his shirt. 'I'm not going anywhere baby its okay.' I relaxed a little into his arms. He took my hand and moved us to the sofa where we got comfy and I snuggled into him. 'Seriously? you watch some Shit.' He laughed kissing me on the head. I kissed him stomach, which was the closest thing as a way of kissing him back and relaxed. I was happy, this was perfect. And before I knew it everything went black and I was asleep, where I should be. In Liam's arms.
