The Girl In The Crowd [One Direction: Liam Payne]

Ready Set Go

Perrie and Eleanor shopped way too much for my liking. I swear they dragged me around the last 3 hours of our 8 hours long shopping trip. Yes, EIGHT! I complained quite loudly and obviously because they made me want to rip my nipples off and stuff them down their throats so they'd gag on them.

Yes, my nipples.

The two girls were giggling as I carried all the shit inside the huge house. I had to take the place of their two boyfriends, so they just used me as some donkey. When we finally got inside I dumped the crap on the floor before walking to the kitchen to get some Cola since they always have to a lot of soda here. 

Eventually, I'm lying in the living room, flipping the two girls off every time they so blatantly looked at me. No, I'm not going with them to some stupid fashion show. Watching people parade around in horrendously fashionable clothes really just isn't my cup of tea. Besides, those clothes really are a sore sight to see. It can hardly be called fashion since no one would actually wear that garbage!

"We don't want you to sit around all by yourself, Ritty," El pouted. I just gave a loud burp and rolled my eyes at her. They both made a slight face at my obvious lack of manners. "I'll just have some me time then," I shrugged and left them in the living room. 

Since I obviously don't have a room in here I decided I'd just go into some random bedroom instead because I was exhausted.

Well it wasn't really all that random to be honest. 

I refused to go to Harry, Louis or Zayn's rooms because they obviously had a lot of sex and I know for a fact that Niall's room was usually a pigsty, so I picked Liam's room and got comfortable on his bed like always. This was basically a routine most days. Usually, he'd move me to the living room when he got here without waking me up or when he was really tired he'd just make himself comfortable beside me. 

His bed was big anyways.

And so I went to sleep.

<<>>

I padded my way into the living room with a steaming hot cup of hot chocolate only to stop and wonder what was going on. Liam was lying there in his pajams, sound asleep.

He never slept in the living room.

Slowly I went back into the kitchen, poured him a cup of tea, knowing excatly how he liked it after having watched him make it a hundred times. I toasted some bread and put jam on the two breads then cut them from corner to corner to make 4 triangles in total before re-entering the living room. I placed the breakfast on the table then crouched down in front of his sleeping form, wondering.

"Liam?" I spoke softly, tilting my head to the side ever so slightly. 

He looked so tired. I kind of didn't want to wake him up, but he had told me once he prefered to wake up before 10am and it was 10.30 now.

"Liam," I said a little louder now and placed my hand on his cheek. He made a small whiny sound that reminded me on a puppy. I giggled, but quickly stopped, feeling silly. I don't giggle. "Liammm."

"Hm?" 

"Time to wake up," I said, patting his cheek lightly. His hand came on top of mine and he leaned his head into it. "Just a little longer," he groaned, still keeping his eyes shut. I just snorted and flicked his nose with my free hand instead. He pouted but opened his eyes now. The brown hazy eyes stayed on me until they became more focused then they flickered over to the mini breakfast I had made.

Liam smiled.

It made my stomach flutter. 

When he sat up, he pulled me to sit beside him, then he took the plate and cup of tea. I grabbed my hot chocolate and then we sat together and watched old cartoons on Cartoon Network. I froze for a moment when he let his head rest on top of mine, but eventually I just leaned against his shoulder. When he finished his breakfast and placed the stuff on the table before he surprised me by sliding his hand under my thighs and the other behind my back and he lifted me onto his lap.
