Chapter 6

"Good Morning Miss Jacky.",Carl said as he opened the door. He was one of the most loyal servant of Payne family and the closest to Liam. Liam has spent most of his time with him ever since he was a small kid. Carl was a butler, chauffeur, guide, parent and what not to Liam.

"Morning Carl. Is Liam home?", she asked after greeting him with a small smile.

"Yes Miss Jacky. He's upstairs in his room. If you say, shall I call him downstairs?", he asked humbly.

"Its alright Carl, I'll go upstairs by myself."she said and headed toward the stairs but before she climbed them, she turned around.

"By the way Carl, I've told you numerous times that Its only Jacky not M.I.S.S. Jacky." She raised her  hand in air, gesturing.

"Okay..Mis. Ohh I'm sorry. Okay Jacky."he nodded and smiled warmly.

Jacky turned over her heels and quickly climbed the glass stairs. Her sneakers made a squeaking sound as they kissed the firm glass underneath them.

On reaching the top floor her feet automatically turned in the direction of the room she had always spent her most time in. Even if she's blind folded she could easily find out where Liam's room was, as if her inner sensory system,in a special way, has memorized the way to his room. Soon she was standing outside his room, her legs turning into jelly thinking of the conflict they might or might not  end up into. Taking in a long breath she finally pressed her thumb at a small screen at the side of the door and in a split of second it automatically opened after recognizing the person's identity from its database. As the door opened soft melodious tune afloating in the air reached her ears. She stepped inside the room and found Liam sitting in front of piano and his fingers playing on the black and white keys. His eyes were closed and he seemed to be lost in the deep peaceful melodies of the piano. She did not disturb him but leaned against the wall and watched her boyfriend in awe.

After half an hour, he was finished with his routine practice. His eyes were still closed  probably feeling the peaceful effect. Jacky slowly walked over to him and hugged him from behind. He opened his eyes and placed his hands over hers that were wrapped around his abdomen.

"It was beautiful."she said kissing his neck an placed her chin on the crook of his neck Liam's cheek reddened on hearing her.

"Thankyou love." He said in a low husky voice and pulled her on his lap. She removed her arms from around his abdomen and shifted them to around his neck. She leaned in and gave a small peck on his lips.

"I need to talk about something Li."she hesitantly spoke.

" 'course babe. What is it?" He said tugging her lose strand of hair behind her ear.

"I'm going to London" she nervously muttered. Liam's face expression suddenly changed.

"What? Why? When?" He yelled and she got up from his lap and stood few steps away from  him.

"I..I got a scholarship from Royal University..so.." she said. Her fingers shankingly playing with the edge of her top.

"But you never told me that you applied for it." He also stood up and frowned at her.

"I randomly sent in my application. I never thought I'll ever get a chance." She explained. But in her mind she knew she wanted to go there. She hid it from him because if she'd have told him, he would've never allowed her to even send her application.

"You're not going. Thats it."he crossed his arms infront of his chest and declaired his decision.

"Why not?", she raised the tone of her voice surprised over his words.
