Not In Love With Liam

18~ Three Strikes, You're Out

♜LIAM LAWRENCE♜

She didn't want to talk to me. She didn't want to see me. And I didn't blame her.

It had been several days. Oliver was nice enough to occasionally tell me how she was doing, but the others wanted as much to do with me as Noah herself did.

Hayden was sure to stab me dead if I ever showed my face again, and if he didn't finish the job, Noah's dad would.

I was sat on my bed, in my dorm.
I desperately needed to talk to her.
I needed to explain that I'd been a huge jerk and maybe after explaining things from my point of fiew, she'd forgive me.

But I hadn't let her explain. So why should she listen to me?

Well done Liam, you've really fucked yourself over this time.

I pulled out my phone, and texted her.
That was the fifth unreplied message so far. She really was done with me.

I read her last message about the contact names being messed up so I knew she had her phone.
There was nothing I could do to make her talk to me, so I'd have to show her I was sorry in person - again.
No gifts, cards, gimmicks. Just me and my open heart.

Goddamn you're turning back into your old self without her.

😫😫😫

I sent Oliver a quick message to ask if he knew if now was a good time to try and see Noah. He replied saying she was at uni for a home visit, so no.

Oliver was being really nice about the whole thing, and I didn't even know him as well as I knew all the others. He appeared a little on edge, but once you got to know him, he was really kind and lighthearted. I wasn't too sure why he was even bothering to give me updates on Noah though. I was sure he'd get into trouble with his friends for that.

I sent Noah another text, begging her to let me explain, then decided to look for Alex.

I hadn't seen him in a while and he was always good with things like this.

I called him. He said he was free and I could pass by. He'd gone home 'ill' for a few days but he really just needed more time to finish a project.

His house was about half an hour away from mine, and I knew the way off by heart as my family was pretty much always there.

I grabbed my keys and headed off.

⚓NOAH OQUAYE⚓

I arrived in my dorm. It was so strange seeing all my things perfectly how I'd left them. It was as if time had frozen in the room.
Darcy told me that she hadn't been able to sleep there on her own, so she stayed with Kala. I didn't realize how hard this was for her.

I tried to enjoy being out with my friends, but I couldn't take my mind off Liam. I should have been spending time with him too. He should have been there. But he wasn't.

It didn't matter anymore. He'd made his decision to walk out of my life, and the door was locked now.
I hated him so much. But all the same, I still missed him.

"You okay?" San asked. "You were staring at the wall again."
It took a second for me to even notice she was talking to me, and I realised, I was still thinking about him.
