"Sweetie, what are you doing here?" Harry's mom asked kindly. I wonder if she knows why Harry broke up with me. I sure wish I did.
"Well my friends think I need some...help." I say avoiding eye contact.
"Well Hope all conversations held in this room are confidental, so you are safe to open up to me." She tells me. I know she told me this because of Harry. She probably thinks this has to do with our break-up and if she does shes 100 % right.
"Well it all started after my break up with my boyfriend of two years..." I begin not wanting to say his name, but I knew that she knew I was talking about her son. I went on completely opening up to her. I dont know what made me trust her, maybe it was her eyes, or just the fact that I needed somebody to talk to so bad. I told her everything, how much I had loved Harry, how i didnt understand why broke up with me, how I felt so alone and unaccepted in my own life. She sat there the whole time indicating she was listening with small nods and simple "uh hmm"'s
-
Later after the session, I was laying on my bed when I heard a small tap on the door, expecting it to be Liam, I told the person to come in. As I sit up in my bed I see the person that stepped in, I knew by their mop of curls it wasn't Liam. It was Harry.
"Did your mom tell you I was here." I say anger making my cheeks burn. He had no right to just walk in here, and his mom said that this was all confidental. I wonder what else she told him. How he broke my heart? How I stopped eating because of him? I made a mental note never to trust ex-boyfriends moms with your secrets.
"She did, but she didn't tell me anything about what you guys talked about. Just that I owed you an explanation...and wellI guess I do." I nod in agreement. He stares at me like theres something wrong. Theres a little bit of horror in his eyes.
"Is something wrong?" I snap. His eyes snap back to my face.
"i-its you-you are.." he stutters.
"Well spit it out!" I say raising my voice.
"You are so so...skinny." He finishes. I knew thats what he was going to say. I have only lost like 10 pounds or so, and I wasn't exactly chubby to start off with, and plenty of people have noticed my weight loss. "Why?" he asks. I dont respond because he owes me an explanation. He picks up the hint and drops the subject.
-
After giving me a story filled with lies about how he thought it was the best option for both of us. He leaves just like that. Liam walks in a few minutes later with a worried look on his face. He had obviously seen Harry in the hallways.
"What happend?" he says as he walks over to my bed wrapping his strong arms around me. I immediately felt safe in his arms.
"He gave me an explanation on why he left and then out he went." I explain tears running down my face. "I don't know why he could have just let me be, he just made me hurt more." I say inbetween sobs.
"shh" Liam says to calm me as he runs his hand through my hair. He rests his chin on my head as I sob into his shirt.
-
After the sobbing had stopped and there were no more tears left to cry, I pull away from Liam's chest. I wipe my face and glance at Liam's shirt. I look at the big wet spot I had left and laughed, a sad laugh.
"All better." Liam says looking into my eyes. I nod and pull him into a hug. Liam always knows how to make me feel better. Even when it has to do with things he doesn't understand, which is rare. Liam understands me better than anyone, including Kate. Though he and Harry had been friends, Liam quickly ended that friendship train when Harry broke my heart.
"I'm sorry about you shirt." I say pulling away from Liams hug. He glances down at the wet spot and smiles.
"It's alright, Love." He says reaching down and giving me a reassuring squeeze on the knee. I look down at his hand and the leather braclet the he wore all the time.
"I can't believe you still have that bracelet." I say. Rubbing the bracelet with my thumb.
"Well I'm keeping that promise." he says reminding me of the time I gave it to him.
~~~~~FLASHBACK~~~~~~
"Close your eyes. I have a present for you!" I scream carrying a leather bracelet in my hand.
"Okay okay!" Liam says. Closing his eyes a big smile on his face, revealing two missing front teeth.
"But you have to promise me something." I say giggiling.
"What?" He says.
"You have to promise that you will always keep this present. Or else!" / say quieting down to a whisper.
"Or else what?" he says matching my quiet voice.
"Or else we cant be friends!" I say screaming again. I hand him the bracelet and he looks at it then slips it on his small wrist. I frown at how big it is on him but hes still smiling. He readS the bracelet out loud.
"Forever."
END OF FLASHBACK
"Forever." I say aloud. The letters on the bracelet can barely be read from years of swimming and getting worn down, but Liam and I both know what it says and it what it means. I rest my head on Liam's shoulder and drift off to sleep.
-
I wake up alone in a dark room.
There is someone next to me.
Whats going on? Where am I? and Why is there a person next to me?
I immediately start hyperventilating waking up the person next to me. "Hope?" the man says. Suddenly I remember everything. I'm in a mental hospital. And the person next to me is Liam. I sigh an immense sigh of relief.
"I'm sorry Liam go back to sleep." He sits up and squeezes my shoulder as he walks past me to turn the lights on. I hear a soft click then bright light floods the room. I squint at Liam as he walks back over to me.
"I need to go home and change for school, but I'll be back as soon as school gets out." He says as he ruffles by hair. I watch him as he strides out the room and away from me. Although Liam is a guy sleeping in the same bed as him doesn't feel the way it would with anyone else. He has always been like a big brother to me. He makes me feel safe when he is around because I know he would never let anyone hurt me. He is the person I trust most in life.
I decide to go back to sleep, so I get up and turn my lights back off then head back to bed and eventually fall back asleep.
