Living For Today

Chapter 36

Gillian POV

I got into ours and started to cry. If Harry thought that, did anyone else? Did Niall really still hate me? Did everyone just think I was just that depressed pathetic girl? I mean I spent the time with Jade and Sami. Sofie wasn't usually with us when she did all the editing and still I was only in a few videos.

I hadn't talked to Sarah in forever. Moriah and I were never really that close, and Shelby was still on tour. I sat on the couch and started to Just feel sorry for myself. Liam walked in and closed the door quietly behind him. He stood there and looked at me as I tried to wipe away tears.

Then he did something I didn't expect.

He threw away his shoes which was odd for him to just not care, then he pulled his shirt above his head quickly and walked over to me fast. He sat beside me and lowered me down on my back and I gasped at how forward he was. He raised his eyebrows at me and I nodded a little as if to tell him 'yes'.

Then he kissed me.

As if he had never kissed me before. That sounds so stupid but it's true. There was so much passion and love. There was lust and want but it was overshadowed mostly by a sense of absence. I missed him. I missed his now long hair, his toned body, his brown eyes, his smile. Him.

"will you please stop thinking that Harry is right? He is a dick. " he said, a little out of breath, as his eyes were still closed, forehead pressed against mine. "okay" I said a little unconvincing. He pulled away and pulled me up and I molded into his side.

"I love you Liam Payne" I whispered and he turned to face me. "I love you too baby girl" I smiled at my old nickname and made an awful facial expression towards him. He made one back. I missed that. Him being playful.

"you know what I wanna do? " I asked after we shared another kiss. He looked at me curiously because, even though he could usually read other people, he never could read me. I was about to say what I was thinking but he pecked me on the cheek over and over again. I let out a giggle.

" first Niall said we should go over for a movie? " he asked hesitantly, maybe he was afraid I didn't want to talk to anyone. "but we'll continue this later" he winked at me and I blushed.

That wasn't really what I was thinking.

Sarah POV

Finally!

A moment when we aren't talking or planning or obsession over my wedding. I smiled at Niall who put popcorn in the microwave and turned around with a frustrated expression on his face. "Jean, come help me with this?"

I laughed. "press the popcorn button bud" I said in a voice that I would use for kids. He rolled his eyes at me and whined some more. "please.... Come here.?" I remembered when everyone used to say Liam was probably the one who used the cutest puppy dog face. Wrong. Niall used one all the time and it was the best, one time he even got Louis to order his pizza and Lou doesn't get anything for anyone but Moriah. Although, maybe my opinion was biased.

I got up with an exasperated expression. Did he really need me to press this button for him? He could be such a child sometimes. "James, you can't even make popcorn? What are you going to do when I'm not around?" I passed him and pressed the button on the microwave and turned around to find him very close.

"well if you aren't here I couldn't do this." and, with my back pressed to the counter and my stomach to his, he kissed me. I smiled into the kiss and he pulled away "What? Am I not allowed to kiss my fiancé?" I smirked at him and ducked out of his hold and then stuck my tongue out. "nope"
