Managed Love (Liam)

Chapter Two

Liam’s POV

I rolled over and thumped hard onto the ground. I groaned in pain and wiped the dust from my eyes. I squinted against the sun and looked around. Everything was disaster. Including me. I was covered in glitter and dirt; I had lost my shoes and shirt and my hair was on ends. I didn’t remember anything that happened from last night and from the way it ended it could’ve gone good or bad. I slowly got up and stretched. I noticed a number written on my hand. I squinted harder. I got my phone out and noticed it was turned off. I don’t remember turning it off. I shrugged and turned it on. I inserted the number in my phone and checked my messages. Of course she blew up my messages but a few were from the boys. I opened up Zayns’ first because he the second most trustworthy out of all of us.

‘Where are you?!’

‘Liam!!!!’

‘I can’t control the boys’

‘Liam when you wake up we are at the hospital but first go home and change and explain to your girlfriend everything you can remember about last night’

The last one scared me. I rushed around as much I could but I was so dizzy and wasn’t meant to rush when I was having a massive hangover. I tripped over motionless bodies. If I didn’t know better I would think this was apocalypse but without the blood. I knew I wasn’t full to drive on my own and I didn’t want to call my ‘girlfriend’, so I began walking home. A car pulled up to me and I kept walking until I fell out on the grass.

When I came to I was in a house. Someone, some girl was dabbing my head with cold water.

“Where am I?” I said trying to get up but it was no use. I fell back down.

“You aren’t in any harm that is for sure. I wouldn’t try to get up anytime soon.” A girl said.

“Do I know you?” I said letting it come out a little meaner than usual but I really hoped she would understand why I had an attitude.

“You don’t remember anything from last night. Understandable. If you found a number written on your hand this morning that was mine.” She said.

“Where are the other boys?” I asked.

“You mean the ones who have been blowing up your phone? They are at the hospital. They never specified for who or why.” She said handing over my phone. I went through it and saw even more texts from Nancy acting like she cared one bit where I ended up at. “If you want I can drive you to your house and you can change then drive you to the hospital?” She offered. I couldn’t deny an offer. I really need to be there for whomever it is that was harmed.

“Yeah. Can we leave now? If that is not a problem?” I said cautiously. She smiled and nodded. I couldn’t help but smile back. She got up and grabbed her keys off the counter and walked back.

“You ready?” I nodded and got up with her help. I was still woozy but it quickly wore off. I got in the car quickly, embarrassed that I didn’t have a shirt or shoes on. The car ride was quiet but it was nice because it gave time to think. She parked in front of Louis and Harrys’ flat. I ran inside and grabbed a shirt that was hanging up in a laundry room and borrowed a pair Louis TOMS. I ran back out and got back in. As we were driving I asked her a few questions.

“What happened?” I said.

“Last night?”

“Yes.”

“Oh. I saw Andy put something into your two shots last night because I was put on job bartender. He gave them to you and within half an hour you were everywhere in the house. You bounced off walls and were dancing with every girl. You got so drunk that you went into the glitter and began to make it rain glitter. I guess I got a little bit drunk because you and I began dancing on the table and we climbed up a tree. I had a little more sense and got down and made my way home, but I left you with my number. You fell asleep in the tree. I think you lost your shirt when we jumped into the pool. That is all I remember. Hopefully that helps with anything or any questions.” She said sometimes looking at me then back at the road. I nodded. “Good.”

“Can I get your name?” I said. We pulled up into the hospital.

“We are here and I’m Danielle. Danielle Peazer.” She said with a smile.

“Do I have your number?” I asked like an idiot. I think I do but I’m having of memory issue.

“Yeah babe.” She said with a smile. I nodded and got out.

“Thanks.” I said nodding at her car backing up. I was now staring at the back of her car as it pulled out into traffic.
