Never Grow Old (On Hold)

Chapter Eight

Liana's pov

"What are you doing?" I cried, covering my mouth with my hands. How can he do this to me? I thought we were friends? Wills laid his hand on my shoulder. "I am sorry, okay? But I suddenly had the desire to kiss you. So...I did it. Hope you don't mind." I sighed. "I was just surprised but it was really good. You dance very well."

"Oh...I thought you were talking about our kiss." Wills mumbled.

I looked at him, horrified. I think he was in a trance. His eyes were a bit dreamy. "Snap it out! Don't think of me." I couldn't help being a little irritated. Wills nodded and took my hand. "Want to have another dance? This was my favourite music." "Alright."

We danced till our legs went sore. "Hey, stop. My legs were getting sore."

Wills sighed and released me. Sam and Fanny walked towards us smilling. "Hey, did you just kiss her, Wills?"

Wills nodded. "Yup, Sam."

Fanny patted me on the shoulder. "Great one! Are you two going to be a couple?"

"No!" I said.

"Maybe." He said at the same time.

I glared at him and sighed when Ryan walked towards us. "You never came to say 'Happy Birthday'!"

"Happy birthday." Wills pretended to punch Ryan.

"Hey, that was not the proper way to say 'Happy Birthday'." Ryan scowled at Wills.

"You don't trust me, huh?"

My eyes widen when I heard the word trust. Then my mind wandered to pegasus. 'Please...trust me.' I gulped. My eyes were becoming watery. I trust myself not to cry in this type of place. Oh, where have you been, pegasus. Please come back. I whispered in my heart. Only now, I realised that he was the most important thing to me.

Wilks grabbed my hand, forcing me to face the present. "Hmm? Are we going back now?" I whipered, still a bit dreamy.

"Yes. Are you okay? You look...pale."

"Oh yeah, fine. Lets go, Wills."

I wondered what Liana is thinking about. She seems so distant. I really do like her but I am not sure whether she'll like me back or not. When I reached her gran's house, I took her hand and brought it to my lips. "Goodnight, my princess."

She flushed and nodded. "Yeah, goodnight."

She got out of the car and waved one last time before going into the house. I laid against my seat and drove back home. When I got inside, I saw Teresa standing at the gates. "Hi, Wills. Want to have a drink at Summer Pub?" I shook my head. "No. I have work to do."

Teresa made a seducing sound and grabbed my arm. "You are coming with me. No matter how much you wriggled or struggled, I will still find a way to make you obey me. Come!"

I groaned and got into her car. "Hey, love. I am driving! Look at me."

"I am not your love. I am a friend." I muttered.

"Whatever honey. You must marry me when we grow up. Okay?"

"No. I don't want to marry a useless girl like you."

"What! You-Fine. Whatever honey."

We reached the pub at ten. "Hey, its late. We should go home." I said groaning when she squealed. "I don't care! Lets drink!" She ordered champagne and I drank beer. "Wow, I never thought you would drink. Me? I drink a lot. I have a bottle of whiskey at home. Always drink it in my bedroom." She took my hand and set her drink on the table. "Wills, I love you. Will you love me back?"

"No. I love Liana. Not you."

"Why!" she screamed. "Why her?"

I pulled my hand away. "Because she was the suitable candidate for me."

Teresa took my hand again and leaned towards me. "I...said...I...love...you." She presses her lips against mine. I growled and tried to push her away but she clinged onto me like a dog. She wrapped her arms around me tightly and pressed her body against mine. I could feel her body heat seeping into my cold flesh.

No matter how much I tried to push her away, she would just keep on kissing me. She finally released me and gulped down her drink. "I love that kiss."

I rolled my eyes at her and drank my beer. She asked the bartender to fill it with a different drink. I do not know the name but I know that drink would make us drunk in just one sip. I tried to refuse it but she just took the mug and forced the drink into my mouth. When she made sure enough liquid was in my mouth, she kissed me again. Without meaning to, I swallowed the drink. Suddenly the world I could feel the world had just turned the other way round.

Then I could feel someone's hand around my arms. Suddenly my vision turned blurry. Then the whole world seems to turned deep black.

------------------------------------------

Where am I? I felt so comfortable here. Then I felt someone's leg brushed against mine. I gasped and quickly got up to see what was it. A girl was sleeping at the other end of the bed. She was not wearing any clothes. What the hell? I looked down and caught sight of my stomach. Realization dawned on me. I was drunk yesterday and...Oh my god!

Don't tell me I slept with that girl? Teresa groaned and smiled. "You are awake." I growled and grabbed her shoulders. The covers slipped off her shoulders and revealed the top of her breasts. "What did you do to me?" I gritted my teeth, trying to control my anger. "Oh sweetheart. You were so gentle with me yesterday."

"What?"

"We kissed, took off-"

"Enough! You had very lustful thoughts. I hate you. Don't even come near me again."

Teresa grabbed my hand. "Wait! We just kissed. We didn't do anything else. Just kissing. Just like that. I stopped everything before it could happen. Please believe me."

I shook my head. "You are not to be trusted." I picked up my clothes, got dressed and walked out of the room.

I could hear her scream and begged me not to leave her in the room. I am in so much trouble.

"Oh my child, you shall be my sacrifice."

"What are you going to do, Minera?"

Minera grabbed my neck with her hands. "Your blood shall water the bones of Morana and she will wake. So, are you ready?"

"No!"

I wriggled when her hands tighten around my neck. I could feel my heart beating slowly. Please, someone save me. I prayed. Suddenly a white ball of light bursts in front of me sending Minera flying towards the other wall. "Pegasus!" she hissed, before disappearing.

"Pegasus?" I whispered, putting my hand on my throat. Suddenly a white ball of light formed into the shape of a crystal ball and floated towards my desk. Pegaaus appeared inside the ball. "Pegasus!" I cried, wrapping my arms around the crystal ball. "I miss you. Please don't go away anymore. I trust you!"

"Thank you Liana, for trusting me."

Tears were now streaming down my face. The warmth of the crystal ball made me feel peacefulness and happiness.
