Your Friends, They Look Good, But You Look Better.

Chapter Sixty-Four.

Meghan’s P.O.V.

Mum had gone out, thankfully. I honestly don’t know how she’s still here. She has to sleep on the sofa because my other bedroom is my art room... so it doesn’t have a bed and the sofa is the most uncomfortable thing to sleep on. I was in the shower and had my music blasting throughout my whole flat. I hope the neighbours like McFly. I jumped out of the shower humming along to ‘Party Girl’. I wrapped my hair up in a towel and quickly dried myself before wrapping another towel around me. I was brushing my teeth when ‘Shine a Light’ came on. I subconsciously started brushing along to the tune of it. (Don't judge). I walked out of the bathroom, heading to my room but stopped in my tracks. There sat on my sofa was none other than Aimee and Liam. "Uh, can I help you?"

"Uh, we came to see you?" Aime smirked. I looked down at myself standing in the towel.

"Bit of bad timing..." I saw Liam smirk tooo and I could feel myself blushing so I rushed into my room and pulled on sweats and a t-shirt. I walked back out and sat down opposite them. Awkward. "So..." I started.

"So..." Liam repeated. I giggled a little at Liam imitating me. I find it cute.

"So, how’ve you been?" Aimee asked, breaking the silence.

"Perfectly fine when Mother isn’t here but wishing I was dead when she was. She’s driving me up the bloody walls." I put on a stupid “motherly voice” and continued, “You need to eat breakfast, it’s the most important meal of the day! You spend too much time on your own, you need to get yourself more friends! Then I’m just like, ‘if you let me see my bloody friends I wouldn’t have this problem!’ And then she goes on more, You shouldn’t have dropped out of school when you did! You could’ve gone on to do something more useful with your life.” Or “Tidy up after yourself, this place is embarrassing!” Then she goes on a major cleaning spree and I’m like when do you shut the hell up?!" Liam and Aimee just sat there staring at me. I was left almost breathless after that little rant.

"I don’t quite know how to respond to that..." Aimee laughed.

"Yeah well I’ve had to bite my tongue a lot when she’s around because she thinks swearing is “unlady-like” which just makes me want to swear at her even more." I didn’t realise until now that my fists were clenched and my knuckles were almost white. Liam moved over beside me. I just wanted to wrap my arms around him so badly and just kiss him and tell him how much I’ve missed him.

Aimee’s P.O.V.

Liam moved over beside Meghan. He put his arm around her for comfort. "Do you know when she’ll be back?" He asked.

"Nope, I try to ignore her as much as possible when she’s here."

"Then why are you listening to her on not seeing the guys anymore?" I asked, confused.

"Because she’s keeping track of where I am all day every day. She’s like a bloody stalker. Where is everyone else anyway?" Meghan sighed.

"They all went home for a few hours." I informed her. She nodded and we sat in silence. I got up and went into the kitchen to get a drink, leaving Meghan and Liam alone. Maybe they’ll finally talk to each other. I walked back in to find them kissing. Awh. That happy mood soon smashed, along with my glass when it hit the floor. Meghan and Liam jumped apart. Meghan glared at me.

"What the f-" Meghan started. I pointed behind her. There stood ‘Mother’.

Liam’s P.O.V.

Aimee left us for a few minutes. We didn’t say anything at first. We caught each other looking at ourselves. We both smiled and she went to look away, embarrassed when I cupped her face in one hand and pressed my lips on hers. I’ve missed her kisses so much. She smiled into the kiss which told me she missed mine too. We were both getting into it when a sudden smashing of glass broke us apart. "What the f-" I was about to tell Meghan not to swear when Aimee pointed behind us. A woman who I assumed was Meghan’s mum stood there. I quickly tried to rack my brain to find a name. I was blank. Meghan jumped up and glared at her mum who was glaring at me.

"Get out of here now." She growled at me. She had a threatening tone which gave me shivers. And not good ones either. I stood up and went to leave when Meghan held me back. "Meghan, I asked him to leave."

"Yeah well I’m telling him to stay." Meghan defended. She's pretty hot when she gets wound up.

"Liam, out. Now." Her mum threatened. I made another move towards the door. "Don’t you ever come near my daughter again, do you hear me? You’re nothing but bad news for her!"

"Shut the fuck up!" Meghan exploded. So much for being lady-like... "You can’t fucking tell me who I can and can’t see. Liam’s my boyfriend and his "mates” as you call them are like my brothers. They’re a better family to me than you ever were. So if anyone is leaving it’s you, because I love Liam!" She loves me!? She still loves me! I turned to look at Meghan. She had just realised what she said and her eyes widened in shock. I couldn’t help but smirk at her. I could see Aimee doing the same from the corner of my eye.

"No you don’t. You don’t know what love is, you’re too young." Sarah said. Sarah! yes, that's her name. I'm glad I remembered.

"Don’t you fucking tell me what I feel. At least I have feelings for Liam, unlike you with dad." Meghan yelled. The lady-like thing is really not her kind of thing.

"That’s not fair-" Sarah began.

"Do you know what else isn’t fair? He found me mother. I was on holiday in California and he found me. He kidnapped me and raped me and abused me. I was out cold for days. I lost part of my fucking memory because of him!" Meghan started crying and I wrapped my arms around her and shushed her to try and calm her down.

"No offence, Sarah... but I agree with Meghan. I think you should leave..." Aimee said calmly and quietly.

"I’m not going to listen to a bunch of teenagers." Meghan pulled away from me and walked towards her mum.

"One of which happens to be your daughter. Thanks for the concern about your ex husband attacking me too. You’re supposed to be my mother and all you can do is just stand there pretending to take charge over me. I’m seeing Liam and the boys and there is nothing you can do about it. If you don’t like it, leave. If you go now I might think about inviting you to the wedding." Meghan said, less loudly, but still in an angry tone. Wait... Wedding?!

"What wedding?" Aimee asked, just like I was thinking. Meghan shot us a look to play along.

"You’re not getting married to him." Sarah growled.

"Cool story bro. Now get out before I call the police for unwanted mothers in houses."

Meghan’s P.O.V.

When will she take the hint that I don’t want her here and that I won’t listen to her? I lifted her bags and threw them out into the corridor. "Are you going to get out yourself or will I throw you out too?" Liam and Aimee just stood there trying to hide their laughter. Mum gave me an evil look and slowly walked out.

"This isn’t over." Mum said so that only I could hear.

"Yeah yeah, now bye." I closed the door, not caring if it was in her face or not.

"That was a bit harsh." Aimee said.

"Like I care?" Liam walked over and hugged me.

"I’ve missed you so much babe." He whispered in my ear sending those well-known shivers down my spine with his minty breathe running down my neck.

"I’ve missed you too." We pulled back and both leaned in, our lips connecting in the middle.

"And for the record, I still love you too." He whispered against my lips. I giggled and kissed him again.

"Alright you two, break it up." Aimee said, sounding creeped out. We pulled away annoyed when there was a  knock on the door. I went over to answer it.

"I swear see if that woman thinks she’s going to con- ZAYN!" I launched myself at Zayn wrapping my arms around his neck. He and the rest of the boys were standing at my door. I pulled back from and let everyone in. I hugged Harry then Louis then purposely left Niall until the end. "How’s everything been?" I asked Niall quietly.

"Ok, the boys make sure I’m involved in everything and don’t make me feel unwanted." He smiled down at me. It wasn’t until everyone was sitting down talking about everything and anything that I realised how much I’d missed everyone. I missed Aimee’s weirdness, Louis’ humorous comments, Niall’s cuteness, Harry’s cheeky thoughts, Zayn’s deep and meaningful chats and mostly I missed Liam’s well... everything.
