My Allay

Chapter 3

I wish it would all go away. All of life's problems, all the negativity, all the worries all down the drain. I know we all need a challenge and life would be boring normal, but life can be hard, especially when you have to face your troubles alone. It can be really hard.

But since I've been dating Liam, I feel so much happier. It's like I'm finally complete now. That's what I was needing all along. A guy to love me just the way I am.

"Do we have to?" I moan.

"No, but we'd like to."

"I won't like it though."

"Mia just throw the fucking ball," Liam bosses.

I let out an annoyed sigh. "Ok then." I run back a little and kick the ball in front of me as hard as I can, causing it to skip past Liam and into the net.

"Yay!" I scream jumping up and down. Liam picks up the ball. "Well done. See, it wasn't all that bad."

"Yeah, but I only done it once. I'm not doing it again," I say. "And you can't make me."

"You sure about that?" Liam asks me.

"Yeah, I'm sure about that."

"You double sure about that?"

"Yeah, triple." I giggle. Liam throws the ball behind his back. "No! No!" I giggle running away. Me and Liam can run about the same speed, but I can a little faster, thankfully. So I manage to escape before he attacks me. I run behind a bush and hide. I slowly and carefully look around the bush to see if Liam is following me. I keep my wits about me all the time because I don't want to let my guard down.

"Boo!" Liam shouts from behind me. I scream and try to run away but he grabs my wrist.

"Ow!" I giggle. Liam pulls me into him but I try and get away.

"Come here," he says, lifting me up over his shoulder. He holds my legs on one of his shoulders, so my top half is dangling behind him. "Ow!" I giggle. "Put me down you creep!"

"Make me," he says.

"I don't like making creeps," I joke.

"You asked for it."

"Asked for what?"

Liam spins around, slowly increasing his speed every second. I scream loudly. "Liam! Put me down!"

Liam puts me down on the grass and he lays over me. We stare into each others eyes and continue to laugh. Then an older woman comes along and frowns at us. "My oh my!"

"Oh," I mutter. Liam quickly gets off me. He clears his throat. I'm too dizzy and tired to move, so I just stay on the ground.

"What was all that noise about?" the woman asks, sounding rather angry.

"He was attacking me!" I joke, pointing up at Liam. Liam frowns at me and I giggle. The woman tuts, shakes her head and walks off again. I give Liam one of my "oops" looks. He does the same.

"Here, help me up," I say, holding my hands up. He grabs onto my hands and pulls me up. I pick up the ball and Liam grabs the bottom half of my legs and pulls them up. I wrap my legs around his waist and put my arms around his neck, still holding onto the ball.

"Comfy?" he asks me. I nod.

"Ready for take off!" Liam shouts before exiting.

I was still a little embarrassed because the woman must have thought me and Liam were having sex or taking drugs. But if that old woman heard us, there must have been other people listening too.
