Bitter Sweet ~Liam Payne

54

Beautiful, Beautiful, Beautiful

"Wake up.. Liam, wake up.." She said as she gently shook his shoulder

"Liam.. C'mon." She said a little more stern.

His eyes opened slowly but before he could see who was speaking to him or take in anything around him, he felt his stomach flip..

A trash can was held right in front of his face and he grabbed it and threw up twice..

After a few moments and coughs and deep breaths, he wiped his mouth and tried to sit up.. The pain in his head made him groan and he shut his eyes tight.

He felt the trashcan get taken from his hands then an all too familiar girl's voice say "here, I've got Tylenol and water.."

He opened his eyes immediately and came face-to-face with her.

"Beth.." He whispered in shock

"Just take the damn Tylenol, Liam" She said with a small smile that she tried to hide by looking down.

He slowly took the pills from her palm and the glass of water..

"Thank you" he mumbled as he popped the two pills into his mouth then sipped the water..

"Yeah.. Want waffles?" She asked as she looked at her lap..

It was then that he realized she was wearing a big hoodie and shorts and fuzzy socks. Her hair was up in a messy bun and she wasn't wearing any makeup.

'She's so beautiful' Liam thought

In the kitchen, she stood at the waffle maker and waited for it to cook the waffle in-between it while Liam sat at her counter. He was frozen as he watched her slowly shift her wait from side to side and hum very quietly..

'I miss this' Liam thought

She handed him a plate and sat her own down. Both had two waffles, with syrup and raspberries on top and they tasted amazing..

As they ate, it was pretty silent.. Until Liam said "These are good.. Thank you, Beth" with so much sincerity in his voice, it could be sickening..

"Yeah, no problem." She mumbled and took another bite

She did everything she could so she didn't have to look at him.. whether it was the cooking, looking through the fridge even though she already had the raspberries out, folding her napkin and Liam's perfectly before sitting them down..

He finished his breakfast before she finished hers and he took his plate to the sink.

"You.. You don't have to-" she started but he just turned the sink on and washed his plate and fork..

When she finished, she just left her plate on the counter and cleared her throat awkwardly

"I'm.. uh.. gonna get dressed.. and then I'll give you a lift back to the bar, where your car is still in the parking lot.. Okay?" She said

"Uhm.. yes. Yeah, thank you." He nodded and tried looking into her eyes but she just turned and hurried to her room and didn't look back

He sighed and looked around.. Her house. 

He's in her house.

And she's barely looked at him.

Barely spoke to him.

but she did help him.. and feed him.. and she's gonna drive him to his car..
