Chapter 24: Back in Your Arms, Again.

Emma’s P.O.V.

Liam and I walked back up the hill hand in hand. In his other hand (the one not holding mine), he carried my guitar. We had spent another hour down on the dock, talking and just enjoying each other’s presence. I think Liam enjoyed how quiet it was down there, he seemed at peace, happy.

 My eyes, now free of tears, felt heavy. I am exhausted. I barely got any sleep last night and with all the stuff happening right now, it has taken all my energy away. All I really want to do is be in Liam’s arms, have him hold me and protect me. But I have to be strong. I’m done with being weak. No more tears, no more drama. I have caused Liam too much stress already and that is the last thing he needs with his tour in mid-swing.

Liam squeezed my hand and I looked up to him, meeting his eyes. He gave me a sweet smile, which I returned.

“You okay?” He whispered in my ear.

“Yeah” I smiled, thinking of the words we had spoken not too long ago. “I’m great”

His smile widened “Good”

Liam leaned down and kissed me on the lips. “I love you.” He said lightly, his lips hovering over mine.

“And I love you” I kissed him once more and I could feel him smile through the kiss. I giggled lightly as we pulled apart because here we were, standing in the middle of the road, kissing.

As we continued to walk up to the house Liam swung our intertwined hands back and forth, causing me to giggle. After a couple more seconds of silence we had reached my driveway. I turned to Liam and pulled him into a hug, nestling my face into his neck.

“Thank you” I whispered. He just hugged me tighter, letting me know he understands what I mean. Before we could pull away from each other I heard my front door open and footsteps running towards us.

“EMMA!” Niall screamed right before he slammed into both of us, the rest of the boys following his actions. I laughed into Liam’s chest as we were brought into a giant group hug.

“Lemma lives!” Louis shouted into my ear causing me to wince. I looked up and my eyes met with my boyfriends. His eyes rolled at Louis’ childish behavior but a small smile still played on his lips.

“Hey guys, who wants some food?” I asked, still in the middle of the hug.

“ME!” Niall yelled. “EMMA I DO! I WANT FOOD! PLEASE FEED ME!” He continued to shout as he tried to break through the rest of the boys, an attempt to get me free.

Once everyone had let go I unwrapped my arms from around Liam and grabbed his hand.

“Alright, alright. Calm down, I’m coming.”

Niall tried to pull me into the house by my free hand but Liam kept a strong hold on me. When Niall realized I wasn’t going to go at his pace he dropped my hand and sprinted inside. Everyone else following. We (Liam and I) followed farther behind, our hands still intertwined.

Despite the large amount of energy coming from the boys I was still ready to drop, any second now, and I think Liam noticed this. But, I promised Niall that I would make him something, apparently he wants pasta, and I was going to keep that promise. I mean how can I say no to that face! He looked so excited when I said I would.

 As we entered my house Liam spoke up. “Em, you don’t have to make food, you look absolutely knackered, go to sleep. Please.”

I looked up at him. “But—“

“I’ll make the pasta for him, its okay.”

“Liam, you’re tired too. You need to sleep too! I don’t want you to do that. I’ll be fine.”

“Emma” He put his hands on my shoulder looking straight into my eyes. “You look like you’re about to fall asleep just standing here. Please. I’m worried about you”

“But I’m worried about you too!”

I heard a chuckle and both our heads turned to see Harry standing in the doorway that leads to the kitchen.

“How about you both go rest, cause you both look knackered. I’ll make pasta for the boy’s and I. Nothing to worry about. Problem solved.”

“Harry, you sure?” Liam asked

“Absolutely. I mean its pasta, how hard could it be?”

“Thank you Harry. Just please, don’t burn down my house.” I joked

“I won’t. Now go sleep you crazy love birds.” The curly headed boy joked back

Liam sent Harry a thankful glance before grabbing my hand and dragging me down to my room. Without even changing I flopped onto my bed. Liam chuckled lightly as I did so, but then proceeded to pull the covers out from under me and lay them on top of me. Not once did I move to make it easier on him, I just laid like a blob half asleep. Once he had done this I heard him slip off his shoes and climb into bed next to me. I felt his arm slip around my waist, pulling me into him. As a result I turned around to face him, cuddling into his warm body.

“Li?”

“Yes love?”

“I love you” I whispered, my eyes still shut and my head still buried in his chest.

“Love you too. Now go to sleep. I’ll be here when you wake, I promise.”

“O-Okay” Drifting off while I spoke. I fell asleep with one thing on my mind… how amazing it feels to be back in his arms.
