Next day
I woke up from my alarm, which signalled that it was eight in the morning. I turned it off and got out of bed. I was glad that I got to talk to Liam earlier. It calmed me down and made me feel loved.
I put on Liam's sweatshirt that he had on a few days ago and my grey sweatpants. I put my slippers on and put my hair in a low bun. I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and left the room to go to the porch. I liked that place most out of the entire house. Well maybe after Liam's bed that is as fluffy as a cloud looks like.
The morning was peaceful and beautiful as always. I walked outside and sat down on the couch. I looked out to the rose garden and just looked back at the memories that roses brought me. I grabbed one of the pillows beside me and placed it on my lap.
I could still smell Liam's cologne on the sweatshirt, which made me happy, but at the same time, miss him too damn much for my own good.
I've never felt anything like this towards another person. Of course, I've felt love towards some of my family members and closest friends but never towards a significant other. Especially not something sexual.
Silas was like my first real boyfriend but he showed his true colours before I even got to tell him that I liked him.
With Luca, I was forced to be with him so I never felt anything towards him besides anger and disgust.
But Liam was different. He made me feel worth it. He made me feel things I'd never felt. He made me feel loved and needed - something that I wished for, something that I craved. He treated me better than I'd ever imagined. He saved me. He took a bullet for me. He actually loved me.
My phone buzzing disturbed my thoughts. I took it in my hand and saw Liam's name.
Liam: You look gorgeous with my sweatshirt, love.
I frowned and looked around. He was here. I couldn't see him but then something caught my eye. Liam.
He stood by the massive stairs that lead to the garden and had a black suit on like always. I stood up and ran to him without another thought. As if my body was told to do so. He smiled as I jumped on him and wrapped my legs around his waist while he tightly hugged me.
"Hi, my love." I moved my face from the crook of his neck and looked at him. I smiled as I cupped his face and kissed him. One of his hands moved to the side of my face and I finally got what I wanted. My Liam. I pulled away from him and gently slapped him, taking him aback.
"You didn't text me when you landed." He smiled as he looked back at me.
"I wanted to surprise you." I kissed him again.
"That was a surprise."
"Well, thank you, gorgeous." I smiled as he put me down.
"We can sit down there." I nodded and followed him to the couch. We sat down and I moved closer to him. He wrapped one arm around me as I placed my head on his chest. "I missed your little ass." I chuckled.
