[Briam] "I'm not into him"

chapter 23:

sorry for slow updates.. just busy so!!//

Liam's POV:

1 week later.

"how can she be gone?"

"why did they do this?"

"what did our family do to deserve such pain?"

"she was a good woman.."

"absolutely beautiful lady- i can't believe she's gone."

"i'm going to miss such a precious soul."

"now.. Liam? would you like to say something?" the priest looked over at me, my eyes slowly drifting upward from my slightly shaky and pale hands.
i stood in silence, suit and all, surrounded by people who supposably cared about my mother. i held a single red rose in my hands, my mother's coffin in the unburied hole that laid out before me. flowers were thrown aimlessly on top of the sleek and shiny grey box.

"Liam?.." my stepdad said with a hoarse tone, eyes bloodshot and his face ashen.
"i want her back-" i whispered ever so softly, not audible to the crowd surrounding our broken family.
"i love you, mom.." a single tear rolled down my cheek, anger filling my veins and my heart having the familiar aching feeling burning inside.

i dropped the single flower and inhaled deeply, loosing control of what little i had left. 'this is my fault' the words rung in my head, pounding in my brain. "i need to go-" i said hurriedly, ignoring my stepfather's protests as i turn away and run off, leaving the graveyard, attempting to escape this place.

i somehow managed to bring myself somewhere, where i was completely alone. not my house because that would make things worse.
Derek's old house. the exact house that burnt down to pieces many years before my time as a supernatural creature. Scott told me some of the crazy and chaotic stuff that has happened in this very place. somehow, i managed to feel calm sitting on the steps of where such a disaster took place. i attempted to calm my breathing, my chest feeling as though someone was putting weight on it, not allowing me to breathe properly. my eyes had a longing stinging sensation that hadn't gone away since the moment i found my mother.

i just wanted the pain to stop.

Brett's POV:

"you need to chill out, Brett, i'm sure he'll return your calls soon." Alec attempts to reassure my not-so-hopeful thoughts. i swing my arm back, lacrosse stick in hand as i aggressively toss the ball in the net, my friend missing it completely.

"i just don't understand.. we had a great time.. we said goodbye and now i can't get ahold of him- i mean, did i mess up somehow or?" i stress and toss my stick on the ground before falling down with it, taking a seat on the grass field. "maybe he's just feeling moody lately?" Alec offered but i shook my head. "my messages stopped delivering after trying to contact him for the past day, somethings up." i say as my stomach knots, possible ideas of what could've gone wrong appear in my head. "then i guess you'll have to talk to him on Monday, but i promise you'll be fine- now common," Alec threw a hand out and helped me up, ready to challenge me to another round of 1v1.

later on, i was back at home, playing video games while debating on whether or not to call him again. but, eventually i got the nerve to do so. within a couple of short rings, he actually picked up.

"hello?" a short whisper came from the other line. "Liam! god, i've been trying to get ahold of you all day!" i exclaimed, happiness written in my voice as i finally spoke to my boyfriend. "B-Brett.. you can't call me anymore." Liam sounded upset and i then become utterly worried. lwhy? did i do something?" i asked quickly. "yea, you did." Liam sighed through the phone.
"okay, i made a mistake? but how can i fix it if i never knew what i did?" i say truthfully.

"Brett Talbot, being with you was a mistake." i was absolutely stunned to hear those words slip past him, making my heart clench as i realized my worst fear had come true. "babe, don't say that, i love you-" "stop loving me! i can't do this anymore!" he yelled before the line ended and i was left completely astonished.
