FUCK FHE 150 reads ON U&I HERES THE NEW CHAPTER. Enjoy
••I sat in the living room. Sunk into the couch watching reruns of Empire. My mother had drifted off to sleep. Mr. Dunbar had to work a late shift and Mrs. Dunbar had went into her room.
I let out a heavy sigh as I pick up the TV remote and click on another episode of Empire. It's almost past midnight and Liam still isn't back. If his own parents aren't worried then I shouldn't be. Even though I really was.
I could just think of the things that Liam was probably doing right now. He could be partying right now and drinking under the influence. He could be smoking, or even worst of all making out with another girl.
I place the remote back onto the coffee table and watch as Empire starts up. I was crazy obsessed with this show. The Cookie and Lucious drama was interesting.
Half way through Empire, I find myself drifting off to sleep...
•••
"Saffron," Someone's breath is warm against my neck.
"Wake up." They whisper.
My eyes slowly blink open, the blurry figure of someone's face is all I see.
"Liam?" I groan out.
"Close your eyes, baby girl." It's Liam.
A smile stretches across my face and I close my eyes, listening to his voice.
I feel as his arms snake beneath my legs and under my neck. I was being lifted from the couch as he held me bridal style.
"Keep your eyes close, baby." He whisperes as I snake my arms around his neck and nuzzle into his chest.
He begins to walk slowly up the long stair case. The smell of outside lingers on his cotton t-shirt. When he's fully up, he begins to to make his way down the hallway to his room.
"Promise me something baby?" He whispers as I feel my body being placed on the bed. The pressure of his body laying next to me causes the bed to sink down a little. I can feel Liam's breath on the tip of my nose.
My eyes remain shut, "What?" I grin.
I was so eager for my eyes to spring open so I could see the boy who I've been dying to see forever.
"You won't be afraid?"
My smile disappears and a crease forms in the middle of my brow. "Of what?"
"Me."
"Liam wha- I promise." I went on and made the promise.
Why would he ask me that? What was so scary about little ole' scrawny Dunbar?
"Open your eyes." He finally says.
I smile wide, exposing my teeth as my eyes pop open.
What lies next to me sends my mind into a frenzy and my heart begins to race. I couldn't believe it. My mouth hangs open.
"It's all real." Liam says.
The bestiary, it all was true.
He never believed. Yet he became the thing he doubted the most.
The supernatural.
