The Girl In The Dirty Shirt

Chapter 17

I walked up to the door pushing Sally behind me. “What the fuck are you doing here?”

“Lyla!” Sally yelled at me “Don’t be rude!”

Liam smiled at her before raising an eyebrow at me; Sally turned beet red and couldn’t wipe the stupid smile off her own face. “I’ve come to see you”

“Her?” Sally blinked “Why?”

“Sally, get lost”

“Forget it!”

I turned to her holding the door open “If you don’t, I’ll tell Liam what I heard you doing in the shower this morning” I raised an eyebrow at her “In excruciating detail”

Her mouth fell open and she glared at me before I turned back around to look at Liam; who raised his own eyebrows curiously. I pushed him out onto the porch and closed the door behind me folding my arms over my chest.

“What the fuck are you doing here?” I asked again “I came back here for a reason”

“And I came all the way here for a reason” he said “And it wasn’t to run away from something because I was afraid”

“I wasn’t afraid!” I yelled “I was pissed off; I still am!”

“Is that what you’re goin’ t’do every time we have a fucking fight?” he asked “Run back to Mam’s?”

“Get out of here” I said keeping my voice even and low “Go back home, I don’t want to see you, I don’t want to think about you, I don’t want to fucking be with you, Liam. That’s why I came back here, to get the fuck away from you!”

I turned around shoving the front door open slamming it behind me. “Sally, go to your room!”  She had been sitting on the couch watching us on the porch out the window.

Liam opened the door letting himself in. I turned around glaring at him. “Get out”

“Talk to me”

I ignored him turning to my sister. “Go upstairs”

“No” she shook her head at me

“Sally, leave”

“She can stay if she wants to”

“Exactly, it’s my house too”

I turned to glare at Liam as he winked at her; Sally practically melted on the spot. “You, shut up and get the fuck out of my house”

“Your ‘ouse is back in Manchester with me” *

I looked at Sally, “So help me god Sally, get your ass upstairs before I drag you up there by your hair.

“No” she said again

I sighed “You really want me to ruin him for you?” I asked nodding towards Liam “He’s not the fucking God like creature you think”

"I am too"

"Liam shut the fuck up or I'll shove my foot so far up your ass people will think you had sex with your entire band"

"You're sexy when you're worked up"

"Shut up!"

Sally giggled like a three year old on the couch.

"Sally shut up!"

I stormed back into the kitchen, the fragments of the plate still scattered on the floor. Liam followed behind me as I got on my knees picking up the shards of glass.

I looked up as he stood in the doorway. "What the hell are you doing here?"

"I told you" he said with folded arms. "I've come to see you"
