Weak For Him || Darkness Book #1 ✔️

Chapter 33 | Damn with the Consequences

Stacey's Pov

Suddenly waking up, I hold my head as it pounds and the hangover settles in. I sit up slowly and look around the room.
"Where am I?" I say aloud not understanding where I am. Confusion settles in then I'm hit with so much. The conversation with Victor, him breaking up with me. The drinking.. The fucking drinking wow! And.. fuck! I actually called Liam dammit!
Then.. I made a pass at him and he kissed me back. The fact he still loves me and wanted me but didn't want me to regret it which I know now that I would.. wouldn't..would I?. I don't know, but I'll never regret spending time with Liam. But at least he had morals because I know I didn't lastnight. Bless him for looking after me. This is what I mean.. confusing my damn brain and heart.
I swing my legs off the bed as I pull back the covers and stand unsteadily. Why am I half naked? I scan around the room for my jeans but can't seem to find them and walk out the door and down the stairs. Where's Liam?
I check the livingroom first finding him sitting in there with his head in his hands.
"Hi" I say shyly just standing there in my t-shirt and hotpants. So fucking awkward.
"Morning beautiful" he says and pats the seat next to him. I slowly make my way over to him and sit down and he passes me his joint. It's first thing but I don't even care, I take it.
"Thanks" I tell him with a small smile. He grabs a blanket and puts it over me and I'm relieved to say the least.
"How you feeling?" he asks looking at me.
"Like shit" I tell him and take a drag anyway. Hopefully this will make me feel better.
"You want a drink and some food?" he asks and I'm taken back by his kindness. Where's Liam gone. The cunt one.
"Why you being nice to me, Liam?" I ask him confused and he sighs.
"It's the least I can do after everything and I told you last night" he says and I wrack my brain for some information. He loves me...
"You love me?" I say after some time and he nods looking away putting his head back in his hands.
"So this drink and food. Yes please" I say and he jumps up and leaves me alone quickly. Something is wrong with him?

***

I sit here finishing off the joint and Liam suddenly appeared with a tray and hands it to me.
"Thanks, it means a lot you doing this for me" I tell him slightly embarrassed.
"It's just food Stacey" he says with a smirk.
"No.. Well, yes this but I mean coming to get me lastnight and all that" I tell him and he nods with a smile.
"I'll always be here for me if you reach out to me. I told you I'd leave you but if you need me I'm here" he says and I can't help the smile that spreads across my face. He's so cute. Bless him. I've missed him.
"There's something we need to talk about after you've eaten" he says and I sigh..
"I know we kissed Liam" I tell him looking at the plate of food.
"I know that you remember everything drunk love. It's not that, just eat and we'll talk" he says and I nod starting to eat my English breakfast. Greasy foods always a win for me hungover.
I get through my food quickly wanting to know what he has to say and before I knew it I was dropping my cutlery.
"Soo.." I ask watching him smoke his joint.
"It's about Victor and what happened with Marcus" he says and I wonder how he knows more?
"What about them.." I ask rolling my eyes. They'll be friends by the end of the week.
"It was my fault" he suddenly says handing me the joint.
"How? You wasn't to blame for the fight. Marcus deserves it, to be honest. He hates me for some reason" I tell him sadly. I don't know what I actually did?
"It was my fault Stacey.. I kidnapped him and took Victor too after" he says and I glare at him.. What?
"What do you mean you kidnapped him Liam, fuck sake" I say rolling my eyes at him.
"He was bad mouthing you something about the first time he couldn't get you?" he explained and I remember the bathroom incident. A shiver runs through me and he looks me over.
"Exactly, he wanted to finish what he started. He was calling you all sorts of names and Victor was listening" he tells me and I freeze. What is he talking about.. Finish off.. Noo!
"Victor fucked him up like you already know. But I finished him off. Like you'll never see him again Stacey. He was a major threat to you and every woman to be honest" he says and I think I'm about to bring up my food. He-He killed him. I know that's what he's saying.
"You killed him Liam!" I whisper shout at him and he nods slowly, sighing looking away from me.
"It had to be done Stacey. I did it for you. Not Victor and I've spoken to him, he knows your here" he tells me and I begin to panic. Oh fuck! Fuck, fuck, fuck!
"What? You told him I'm here.. Why would you do that. Shit!" I say putting my hand on my thumping head. This can't be happening.
"Calm down, you and Victor are going to be okay. He panicked and thought he was like me.. Not good enough for you" he says and sighs looking at the floor.
"He's nothing like you" I say getting angry. He fucking did this and I thought he'd changed. Who was I kidding..
"Victor is a good guy, Stacey. He will love you how you deserve and that's all I want for you" he says and I shake my head.
"You're both fucking crazy" I tell him smoking the joint needing it to help with this information.
"I'm to blame not him. Just talk to him" he says and I look at him fuming.
"I know your to fucking blame. You did all of this Liam. Why are you trying to ruin my life. This isnt love, you can't.. I can't do this" I say getting up and taking my plate to the kitchen. Putting into the sink not caring, I grip the ledge and close my eyes. Why is my life a mess.
Suddenly feeling hands on my waist, I open my eyes and spin seeing a sad Liam. Join the fucking club buddy.
"I need to go. I can't be here" I tell him walking away but he grabs me.
"Just listen to me Stacey. Go have a shower, get dressed. Victor will be here soon to pick you up. I told you my love wasn't good enough for you" he says sadly and my heart pounds.. Why does he keep saying this.
"It was good enough.. You just do fucked up things, Liam" I tell him and walk off.
"I do what needs to be done, regardless of the consequences" he says and I just catch the last bit before I head up stairs.
"I love you Stacey"
