Tangled Ties

Chapter 46: All Good

Without a word, Liam took out the blazer. I turned around, giving him the privacy.

"Now apply the ointment." He called me.

I turned to him. He was shirtless, exposing his perfect body.

"You carried me for 30 minutes, when you were in pain." I said, feeling bad for him.

"Ellie... I'm all fine." He held my face, cupping my cheeks.

"I'm sorry!" I added, hugging him.

"Sshh! It's okay!" He hugged me back.

Then I applied ointment on his shoulder carefully. After 10 minutes it was all done and he wore the shirt.

"I feel so much better!" He smiled.

"Let's go and watch the contest." He added.

"I think I should head back home." I said, looking at the watch. It was already 9:30 pm.

"There's no point staying here anymore." I added, realizing we were out from the contest.

"Ellie, it's okay. We never thought about taking part, did we?" He asked, looking at my face, noticing I was sad.

"Still, we made into round two..." I added.

"It's because of me. If only my shoulder didn't hurt. I'm sorry." He said, making me guilty for whatever I said. I didn't mean that way.

"No, the competition is not important than your health." I replied immediately.

"Just like that winning is not important than us. Look at the good side, it brought us together." He said and planted a kiss on my forehead. I smiled and nodded.

"I have P's car. Let me drop you. Leave your car here, we'll come tomorrow for it." He said, checking his phone.

"Actually, I didn't bring my car today." I replied.

"You came with Ariana?" He asked, buttoning his shirt.

"Dad drove me here." I said, making him shift his gaze from the button to me.

"Dad?" He asked, raising his brow.

"Yeah, so much happened in a week." I smiled.

"I'm all ears." He added.

"I'll tell you on the way." I smiled.

"Sure." He nodded and wore the blazer.

"Let me text P that we are leaving." Liam said.

"How will she go home?" I asked.

"She'll be staying with her friends." He said, typing something in his phone.

"Let me also text Ariana." I said and texted her that we were leaving.

"Let's go." He forwarded his hand. I smiled and held his hands. Through the backdoor we went to the parking and walked towards Prinsiya's car.

"Get in." He said opening the door for me. I smiled and got in.

"I want to know everything that happened in this week." He said, getting inside the car.

"Sure." I turned to him and smiled. But he came closer, our shoulders were already touching and our faces were just an inch apart. Is he going to kiss me? Am I going to have my first kiss? I don't know why my heart is beating so fast.

"Ellie..." He said, looking at my eyes.

"Yes Liam." I replied, not even blinking my eyes.

"You should always wear seat belt." He added, confusing me. Then he moved back to his seat. Wait, was he buckling my seat belt? What was I thinking?
