A work in progress

"I don't know what's going on with him." I said crossing my arms.

"He was fine and then... he just won't get up?"

"Do you think you could get Liam here?" Morrell asked. I blinked.

"Liam. Here?" I asked and she nodded.

"No. No way Liam is fine."

"Well from what you just described. I don't think he is." I swallowed.

"I can try." I pulled out my phone and pressed Liams contact name.

Ring. Ring. Ring.

I'm sorry-

"Fuck off."

Ring. Ring. Ring.

I'm-

"He's not answering." I scrolled down pressing on Mrs Geyers number. Liam gave it to me in case anything happened to him.

Ring. Ring.

"Hey Theo."

"Hey Mrs Geyer is Liam there?"

"No dear he left a while ago. Said he had some big idea?"

"O-okay. Thank you." I hung up.

"Well?" Morrell asked and I shook my head.

"His mum said he left a while ago. With some big idea."

"Sound familiar?" My heart dropped.

"No. No that's not possible."

"Let me ask you something Theo. Was there a moment the other day, with Liam where you felt like there was nothing left in the world but you two. Like you were the only two people on earth." I nodded.

"Yeah I'm the cafeteria-"

"Did you kiss him." I nodded and she hummed.

"When Liam kissed you he wished that he could take away your pain Theo, everything that was happening to you he wanted to rid you of. And he did Liam took your pain."

"That's why you told me to give him the gift. You wanted this to happen!" I said and her lips twitched.

"The forgiveness thing wasn't going to work anyway, I just needed you and Liam to get back to your own ways and it worked. Now your are rid of the pain Theo."

"How can Liam fucking suck out a disorder from my brain!"

"Calm down. It's only temporary." She paused, "Think back to when you took Liams pain the first time. How it hurt for a moment and then it was gone, phycological pain takes a little longer."

"How much longer?" I growled.

"A day or so." I stood up.

"Session over. I'm going to find Liam." I ran out the door before she could object pulling my phone back out my pocket.

Ring. Ring. Ring.

"Theo I told you to buzz off!"

"Allison please. I need your help!"

"No Theo-"

"I need to find Liam! It's important!"

"Why... what happened?"

"I'll explain later. Just- come pick me up. I'll send you the directions."

"Okay fine." She hung up.

"Okay. Work in progress." I sighed.

I sent Allison the address and she was there quickly and as I expected she brought Argent with her.
