Reese

Chapter 17 - I can't do this anymore

Eleanor's P.O.V

"When you walked in on her lying in the kitchen floor, she was wondering which one of you both she truly loved."

"...Right." He said, resting his chin on the palm of his hand.

"She then went on and said that when you walked in, it was like everything had suddenly cleared for her. She instantly knew who her heart belonged to." I whispered.

"Who?" Liam asked, being the idiot he is.

"You!"

"What? W-why did she tell me she didn't love me then?" He stuttered.

I face-palmed myself and sighed, "Isn't it obvious? She said that because you said you didn't love her!"

Liam's P.O.V

It's like my body had a mind of it's own.

Eleanor's P.O.V

"Liam! Wait!" I called.

Liam literally shot up out of the chair, almost pulled the door to the cafe completely off it's hinges and is now sprinting down the road.

I managed to catch up with him, I kept calling his name. 

Suddenly he stopped and I bumped into him.

"Uh." I grunted.

"Sorry, where does Mark live?"

I stepped back and pointed down the road, "Down there, to the left and five houses down... I think." I replied, it didn't even take a second for him to take off again.

Oh, god.. the amount of times I've had to chase this lovestruck idiot this week.

Reese's P.O.V

I plodded down Mark's wooden staircase, trying to avoid all the nails that were sticking out of it.

I walked into the kitchen and he was standing there, drinking a cup of tea. He smiled at me.

My heart fluttered.

Why do I keep doing this? Aren't I supposed to be in love with Liam? 

I am in love with Liam.

Then why, oh why does my bloody heart not let me get over Mark?

"Hello, gorgeous." He said, in a very sexy voice.

I rolled my eyes, "Get over yourself."

He chuckled, "You haven't changed a bit."

I scoffed, "It was only last month that we were still together."

He put his tea down and walked over towards me, soon his torso was towering above mine.

"I don't like that sentence."

I frowned, "Why?"

He lightly touched my fingertips with his own and replied; "It portrays the fact that we're not together anymore."

I blushed.

I hate blushing, especially when I don't want to.

I pulled my hand away from his, "You're the one that ended it."

He got hold of my hand again, entwining our fingers.

"Biggest mistake of my life." 

Liam's P.O.V

"Is this it?" I called to Eleanor as she caught up to me, panting.

She nodded.

I stepped up to the white coloured door.

"You sure you want to do this? You're not going to run away from her again?" Eleanor whispered to me, gaining her breath back.

"I've never been more sure about anything in my life."

I lifted my left hand and rapped on the wooden door.

Perrie's P.O.V

*Knock, knock*

...

Is Mark going to answer that?

...

Guess not.

Urgh, this isn't even my house!

I got up off the sofa and plodded past the kitchen, I glanced in through the window.

...

What the hell did I just see?

I did a double take and no, my eyes did not deceive me.

"Oh my god.."

I was speechless, but instead of interrupting I decided to answer the door. It's probably some random seller.

I carried on towards the white wooden door and slowly creaked it open.

Shit.

Liam's P.O.V

The door slowly creaked open, Perrie stood there, staring at me. Her face was a very pale colour.

I smiled, "Hey, Perrie! Is Reese in?"

She didn't reply.

"Perrie?" Eleanor asked, Perrie blinked.

"Uh.. uh.. Yeah. But.. I mean NO! You can-can't come in!" She stuttered, stress printed on her features.

"What? So she is in?" I questioned, getting confused.

"No...?" She squeaked.

I rolled my eyes - chuckling a bit, and stepped around her.

"Liam, no! You don't want to go in there!" She shouted, tugging on my sleeve.

This just made me more and more annoyed. 

"Why not?" 

She froze, biting her nails. "Uh... uh.."

"Exactly." I stated, smirking a little.

Nothing could possibly jolt my good mood, nothing.

I placed my hand on the kitchen door handle, and pushed it down.

I stepped inside, my trainers squeaking against the clean floor.

I looked around the room, and froze.

Eleanor's P.O.V

Fuck.

Perrie's P.O.V

Fuck.

Liam's P.O.V

There she was.

The girl I was just about to admit everything to, show my true vulnerability to.

Standing in the middle of her ex boyfriend's kitchen.

Kissing him.

...

That's it, I can't do this anymore.

I'm done.

-------------------

I'm so sorry.

I've just come to realise how truly messed up this story is. It's like the fates don't want them to be together...

Or does Reese just like the fact that two men want her to be theirs?

I just want to say: Thank you for reading this. I know it's messed up and depressing and probably so annoying for you, because Reese and Liam never really get to be together.

But hey! Keep with me on this, it will get less messed up... after it gets a little more messed up first ;)

I love you.
