My Kidnapper Loves Me(Completed)

~7/14/12~

I woke up this morning completely alone, I rolled over climbing out of bed, I sighed walking down the hall to check on Payton before heading to the kitchen for coffee. I poured myself a cup and looked over seeing a bright blue sticky note stuck to the counter top.

~Elena, Sorry I couldn't stay had school, I know it sounds dumb but if I miss to many days I can't play football. I love you, see you when I get home. Love Liam.~

I smiled at the note drinking my coffee, until I heard the pitter patter of little feet running down the hall. I looked up from the note seeing Payton standing there wide awake with a smile on her face, I smiled.

"Are you ready to practice? Is that why you got up so early?"

She fiercely nodded her head and I honestly thought she was gonna give herself whiplash, I let out a small laugh.

"Alright let me go get dressed I suggest you change into a pair of shorts with a tank top while I get changed alright?"

She nodded her head running back to her room, while I followed behind turning into Liam and Is' room. I found my spandex shorts and a white tank top, to change into before I spent the whole day listening to music and butchering the pads of my feet. I opened the door and looked down to see Payton patiently standing there, I chuckled shaking my head, grabbing my speaker, handing it to her. She ran to the living room where she waited for me to bring my phone, I entered the room to see her bouncing with excitement to finish learning this routine. I plugged my phone in starting the music from the top of my list, we stretched until we got to the song Piano once again. I'm already tired of this song but it's what Payton wants, I can't really complain because she wants to spend time with me and that's all I truly want. We ran through the routine a few times until it was time for lunch, we took a break walking into the kitchen to find something to eat. We decided on grilled cheese just because it's an easy fix, after we finished eating we waited about thirty minutes before we went back to practicing until Liam came home. I gave Payton a bath helping her into her pjs settling her in the living room, I popped in a movie and knew she would fall asleep so I could take her to bed soon. Liam has been sneaking kisses here and there brushing against me once in a while when Payton wasn't looking; he doesn't want to make things odd for her. That makes me happy, it shows me that he wants to be with me but he doesn't want to force anything. Since last night I haven't been able to let go of the fact that he honestly thought that I would regret anything that happened between us. It really hurt to think that he thinks of me as that kind of person, but I can't let it get to me, he isn't like the other guys. He treats me right and while Tyler did at first and so did Ryan I want things to work between us. The only way that's gonna happen is if I learn to let go of the past, Payton soon fell asleep like I knew she would. I picked her up from the couch, walking down the hall to her room, I laid her down kissing her cheek.

"I love you baby girl."

She stirred a little but didn't wake, I walked out of the room closing the door behind me, I walked to the bedroom grabbing my clothes so I could take a shower and actually feel human again. I walked to the bathroom locking the door, turning on the water adjusted the temperature so it wouldn't scorch my skin. When the room began to fog I stripped out of my clothes getting under the hot water my body instantly relaxed under the shower jets. When I got out I was happy that I was finally clean after a day of sweating and then last night I was in dire need of a shower. I walked out of the bathroom and down the hall getting ready for bed, I made the bed to where it was going to be easiest to get in and out of in the morning and if I needed to at night. I plugged my phone in and Liam soon came into the room with damp hair, I looked at him with a confused look because I didn't hear the shower running.

"We had a sprayer problem in the kitchen, it basically exploded on me."

I busted up laughing, he just scowled at me shaking his head.

"I'm sorry."

I was still laughing a little then I looked at him and my laughter started all over again, he started to pout. I quickly calmed myself down a little before walking over to him placing my hands on his sides.

"I love you, but I couldn't help it, if it were me you would've laughed your ass off, and you know it."

He laughed a little.

"Oh really?"

I nodded my head and he walked closer towards me, I began to back up a little, eventually I tripped over the bed landing on my back. Liam hovered over me looking into my bright green eyes and I couldn't help the butterflies in my stomach.

"I can be mad but I won't be if..."

"If what?"

He didn't answer me; he just crashed his lips to mine, my fingers tangled in his hair, he pulled away smiling down at me. I had a few strands of hair fall into my face and he carefully moved it away with a feathery touch of his fingers.

"I love you Elena."

I smiled up at him, I guess it didn't reach my eyes because he stood from his position, I sat myself up on my elbows and looked at him.

"Do you still love me, even after last night?"

I looked at him kinda shocked.

"Of course I still love you, especially after last night I mean sure you asked a stupid ass question but for me it was love and you said it was for you too. Maybe you just told me that it was love for you I don't know, what I do know is that I love you no matter what mistakes you make, I hope you feel the same for me."

"That's the thing for me it was love Elena, last night I made love to you, to the girl that I'm madly fucking in love with and I feel like I fucked up royally. I know I hurt you, I feel like absoulute shit and like a fucking idiot, I have no clue how to fix it, I love you Elena, I want this to work, I want us to work."

"Who's saying that this isn't gonna work? Who says that we aren't gonna work? Because it sure as hell isn't me."

"Your right it isn't you, but it's just a fear that I have coursing through my body, I don't want to lose you, I love you and the thought of losing you terrifies the hell out of me."

"Hey, you're not going to lose me, we were friends before this and we'll stay that way after this, even if we are still together. You're my best friend, I can honestly say that I fell in love with my best friend, you finally grew a pair and told me how you felt, you told me the truth."

He looked at me with a small smile on his face before walking towards me, when he was close enough he wrapped his arms around my waist pulling my body into his, he placed a soft kiss on my forehead before whispering to me.

"I love you Elena."

I smiled and moved out of his hold, walking over to the bed climbing under the covers. Liam just stood there looking at me like I hurt his feelings by walking away, I looked up at him and smiled.

"I love you too, please come to bed, it's late, I have to get up and so do you not to mention you have a game tomorrow."

He walked over to his dresser pulling out a pair of sweatpants, he slipped them on before crawling into bed pulling me into his bare chest.

"Good night Liam, I love you."

"I love you too."
