A Crazy Lil Thing Called LOVE || L.P.

87.) 'The Text'

"Those, whom we love the most, are often the most alien to us....!!"

Liam's P.O.V.

Before I could process what was the reason behind Alya's sudden change in behavior, Max inched closer to her, trying to kiss her while she started pushing him away so as to free herself from his grip.

In the next second, I was making my way through the crowd as fast as I could and on approaching him, I, instantly, pulled him back by the collar of his shirt and he turned around to face me.

"Liam! Bro, you..." Before he could finish his sentence, the palm of my hand came in contact with his right cheek, causing a loud thumping sound but since the music was too loud and the lights were dim, nobody noticed it, except 2 or 3 people, who quickly stepped away.

Catching a hold of his collar, I continued walking through the crowd until I was away from the loud music and all the drunk people who were screaming at the top of their voices. As I turned around, I noticed Alya, standing at the door-step of the balcony, looking at me with tear filled eyes and I couldn't help but slap Max on his face, again.

"What the fuck is wrong with you, man?" He spit out and people started gathering around us.

"What the fuck were you doing inside?" I growled, stepping closer to him as he tried to balance himself on his feet.

"I was just trying to have some fun." Passing me a confused look, he shrugged casually, as if he didn't do anything wrong.

"You better have fun with other girls then. Stay away from my girlfriend else I will..." And with that, I glanced at Alya again whose face was, then, holding an horrified expression.

"Else what Liam? Tell me?" Max shouted and I could see a lot of people staring at us.

"Else, I'll forget that you were my friend." I spoke through clenched teeth and a second later, familiar voices caught my attention.

"What the hell is happening here?"

"What's wrong?"

"Where is Liam?"

"Babe, are you okay?"

Turning around, I found Alya, crying in Harry's embrace and Niall was trying to quieten her while Andy and Louis, briskly, made their way towards me.

"What's wrong, mate?" Louis sounded concerned, exchanging a confused look between me and Max.

"Nothing." I huffed, glaring at Max while he smirked at me in return. "Let's go."

The moment I turned around to leave, Max's words brought my steps to an halt. "Why don't you tell them what happened, bro?" He scoffed.

Promptly, turning around, I spoke in a warning tone. "Shut the fuck up, Max."

"I was just trying to have some fun. Like you guys were having, back there." He referred to Louis and Andy and met my gaze before continuing, "But seems like Liam has got a problem with that. Isn't it?" He smiled at me sarcastically.

"Say one more word and I'll punch the life out of you." I whisper shouted, trying my best to keep myself composed.

"You didn't say anything when they were all over your girl." He mocked, not paying any heed to my warnings.
