Last First Kiss #Wattys2014

Chapter 7

"Yes, I'd love to go to the movies with you. I'll be ready in a hour." I reply, turning the door knob as I step inside the house.

"And dinner afterwards." Niall adds, as he chews whatever he is eating.

"Yes. I'll meet you lads at the cinema." I tell him, ending the call. Niall called to ask me if I wanted to go watch "Man of Steel" with them. Of course I said yes. Henry Cavill is so hot, who wouldn't want to watch that amazing movie?

I step in the living room to see Dad sitting on the couch, watching the latest football match. I sit down next to him and place my feet on the small coffee table in front. "Hey Dad." I finally say. He nods, before leaping up, punching his fist in the air, screaming as one team got a goal.

He sits back down, and looks at me, "Hey honey. Who was on the phone?" He asks.

"It was Niall, he just asked me if I wanted to go to the movies with him and the other lads." I smile as I reply with my fingers crossed, hoping that Dad would allow me to go with them.

"Ah," He says, sighing, "I see that you and the boys go along well."

I nod. "Yeah, they're really great boys." I tell him.

"Especially Liam, huh?" He says, grinning as he looks at me.

I blush a bit. "We're just friends," I say sternly.

He chuckles, "I just want you to know that it's okay with me that you're spending time with the lads. You don't have to hide in anyone's closet anymore."

I look at him, eyes wide, "How did you know?" I ask, thinking back a few days ago when I hid in Liam's closet.

He smiles, "Your car was parked outside and Zayn kind of made it slip out."

I laugh nervously, "Oh right."

"And about you and Liam, as long as you're ready to be in a relationship again, it's okay with me if you start dating," He says, with a serious voice, "I know Liam's a great lad and he's way better than Richard, but that doesn't mean that I will not break him from limb to limb if he breaks your heart."

I laugh. "Dad," I say, sighing, "Liam and I are just friends."

"No matter how much you deny it, you know that deep inside that stubborn heart of yours," He points at my chest, "You like him more than a friend. You're just scared to admit it."

"Gee Dad, when did you get so wise?" I ask teasingly.

"Since the day I was born." He replies, winking.

I give him a kiss on the cheek, "Thanks Dad. You're the best." I smile, standing up.

I go up to my bedroom, and decide on taking a short shower. I head inside the bathroom door and lock the door behind me. After stripping off my clothes, I jump into the shower - smiling as the cold water hits my skin.

As soon as I am done with my shower, I grab the towel and wrap it around me. I open the door, stepping in my bedroom. I suddenly see Liam sitting on the bed and I blink twice to make sure I'm not dreaming. He sees me and smiles, then his smile fades as he covers his eyes with his hands.

"Oh my goodness, Liam!" I scream, running back to the bathroom and locking it.

"I'm sorry. I promise, I didn't see anything," He says, as he leans on the other side of the door. "Your Dad let me in and told me you were in your bedroom. I didn't know you were taking a shower, I'm so sorry. I should have waited outside." He apologizes.

I sigh, "It's okay. Can you just do me a favor and get some clothes for me to wear in my closet?" I ask.

"You mean, you want me to pick your undergarments for you?" He asks, chuckling, finding it amusing.
