The Diary of Ruby Jones (Liam Payne Fanfiction)

It Won't Be The Same.

Dear Diary,

Daz stayed with me the night, not that I slept. All I could think about was Liam, I just couldn't keep him out of my head, so I did what I thought was best. Trying my best to be as quite as possible I pulled on some joggers, put a jumper on and left a note for Daz just in case he woke up before I got home. 

Liam lived about a 30 minute walk away, but it felt some much longer at 2 in the morning. There was quite a few drunk people but I just kept my hood up and walked on the opposite side of the road. I stood at the end of the pathway, wondering whether this was the right thing to do or should I just walk back get into bed and pretend I didn't just do an hour walk. I think my body had made a decision before my head because I had opened the gate and I was now standing in front of his front door.

'Knock knock'

I was starting to get cold and thinking I should turn back when the door opened and Liam stood there rubbing his sleepy eyes.

"Ruby?"

"umm, I needed to see you"

"come in" He guided me in with his arm and took me to the kitchen and put the kettle on and we sat in silence before he started with, "I am sorry Ruby"

"I know"

"I handled it really badly and I should of told her when she came round"

"well she knows now"

"I know, I told her" he still couldn't look me in the eyes.

"what made you?"

"Niall"

He told him, he must of done. 

"Niall?"

"yeah, he said how he bumped into you and how upset you where" I couldn't help but smile, I knew I could trust Niall, "so I had to, I don't like it when you're upset"

"you know you've done wrong though and I don't think it will be the same"

"I understand" he finally looked up and tears were streaming down his face, which then made me cry.

"come here" I walked to him and pulled him in for a hug, "I think I should go home now"

"are you stupid? Its like half 3, you can stay here"

"I really shou-"

"you are staying here, no arguments"

I huffed and went upstairs into his room and got into his bed. Liam followed and laid up against me. I have to admit, it was nice having his body around me again.  

*******************

I woke up at 7 and I didn't want to wake Liam so I snuck out and walked back to my house where Daz was sat in front of the door with a smug grin on his face.

"stayed the night then?"

"nothing happened, we talked and then he told me stay because it was like half 3"

"yeah, ok"

"shut up" I hit him on the shoulder and made us and dad some breakfast.

"hey Greg! Guess where Ruby spent the night?"

Dad just frowned.

"Liam's house cause they are in love"

"shut up Daz you twat. We are not in love I just went round to sort things out, now if you don't mind I have to get ready for work"

I left the twats at the table and went and put on my work clothes. I had a couple days off because of everything but I was totally ready to go back now. 

"bye gays!" I shouted as I slammed the door. They will probably just sit on the sofa with beers all day but they better save me some. 

**********************

"hey boss"

"welcome back, got a busy schedule today, you ready?"

"I guess"

We were all being assessed today so we had to be on our best behaviour. 

I had to stock all the football shirts and as I was doing the ones right at the top someone started shaking my ladder and when I looked down, Niall and Liam were just staring up at me. 

"go away! I am being assessed and I can't be distracted by you two"

"get you" Niall teased.

"come on, lets go Niall"

"no! I am here to buy a football shirt and I would like that one right at the top, miss could you get that one for me"

"can't you chose one from the bottom" I angered.

"oh, that's not very shop helper like is it?"

"sorry sir, let me get that for you" I had to grit my teeth so I didn't shout at him or call him anything I would regret.

"thank you, actually this one down here would probably fit better" he said with a smirk.

I was about to hit him when Liam grabbed my arm and calmed me down while Niall ran away.

"sorry about him"

"it's fine, umm do you wanna go for a drink when I have finished work"

"yeah, I would love that"

"good" I smiled.

I couldn't wait for my shift to end now and before I knew it boss was letting me go.

"see you in two weeks then"

"what?"

"you have two weeks holiday"

"haha oh yeah" I had completely forgot.

I grabbed my bag and made my way out the back door and started walking down the street when I noticed Mary sitting in the window of a bar on her own and when she saw me she gestured for me to come in.

"sit down Ruby"

"look I just wanted to say how sorry I am"

"I know, but did Lucy really cheat on Liam a lot?"

I nodded and she broke down.

"why? Why can't she just behave"

"what do you mean?"

"she has always been like this and she has had behaviour problems, I have only just started trusting her again"

She continued to tell me how bad Lucy behaved when she was 16 and showed me some of her scars from where she had scratched and bit her. I couldn't believe some of the stories she was telling me.

"I'm supposed to be meeting your dad here, but he doesn't seem to have arrived"

"£10 he is asleep on the sofa with Daz, my mate from yesterday"

"I don't wanna shake on it cause I'm scared it's true" she smiled.

We finished our drinks and I drove us home where, yep, my dad was asleep on the sofa and who was asleep on the other sofa, Daz. God sake, men, well boys. 

"I'm glad I didn't shake on it" we laughed. 

"ready? WAKE UPPPPPPPP!" I screamed.

"bloody hell! Ruby what do you think, oh hey Mary, umm shit I was supposed to meet you"

"it's fine, I had a lovely chat with Ruby"

It was the fastest I had seen my dad run up the stairs and get dressed before he was downstairs pulling Mary out of the door.

"you told Liam yet?"

"no, he doesn't need to know, it's all over now"

"hmmmm" Daz squinted his eyes at me.

"well Georgia is coming round so ummm, GET OUT!"

"alright pushy" he grabbed his stuff and left thank God. 

So yeah Georgia will be here soon, so I will write later .x
