Through the dark ⚀ Liam Dunbar

08

"Maya." I heard someone whisper my name.

"Hm?" I said half asleep. I turn around and see Stiles.

"Hey, I'm going to the school with everyone else. We're taking the PSAT's. Are you going to be fine alone?"

"I've been home alone before Stiles" I said laughing.

"Okay." He said walking to my door.
"Text me if anything happens."

"You too" I said.

I grab my phone and put my hair in a pony tail then walk downstairs to get something to eat. I open the fridge and see slices of left over pizza. I grab two slices and warm them up in the microwave. A minute later I take them out and grab a water.

I take a big bite when someone knocks. I go to the door and see Liam.

"Hey, Liam" I said rubbing my eyes and look down. I looked horrible.

"Um hey. Are you busy?"

"No. Stiles went to school because they went to go take the PSAT's. Come in" I say opening the door wider.

"Do you want anything to eat or drink? There's leftover pizza"

"No thanks I'm good. I just came to see you." I immediately blush and sit down.

"Aww. You're cute" I say winking.

"I try" he says laughing.

"You know what I realized." He said. I look up at him into his beautiful blue eyes.

"When we were at the hospital, when I hurt my leg. I told you we should do something sometime and you agreed right?" I nod and he continues. "Well, we still haven't done anything, so I thought we should do that today"

"Like a date?"

"If you think of it like that, then yes." He said.

I smile. "Sure" I said. "What do you want to do?"

"I still haven't thought of that yet, but , you can get ready, I'll pick you up and we'll go from there." He said.

"Ok." I said.

"I'll pick you up in a hour" he said standing up.

"See you later"

He goes up to me and kisses my check then leaves. I close the door, finish my pizza and go upstairs. I undress and get in the shower. I quickly get out and see I have half an hour left. Dammit. I blow dry my hair and brush it. I go through my closet and decide to pick something casual. A plain black tee shirt, jeans that I rolled up a bit, and a denim hoodie. I do my hair and makeup.

I cover my scratch on my forehead and my burn on my neck. It was slowly fading but not that noticeable. I walk back in my room and put on my shoes. I hear the door knock and grab my phone and some money. I speed walk down stairs and once I reached the last few steps, I missed a step and fell. I laugh at myself and get back up.

"Hey." I said opening the door scratching the back of my head.

"I heard you." He said laughing. I mentally face palm myself but I laugh too.

"You're really clumsy" he said.

"Really I haven't noticed" I said.

"You okay?"

"Physically, I'm fine, emotionally , I'm bruised" ((AN : if you know who said this, ilysm)) I said chuckling. We walk outside and I lock the door behind me. He grabs my hand and we walked on the sidewalk.
