Accidental Love

Chapter 10

Charlotte's POV

This week has been making me stressed out lately. I've had so much homework and tests it was unbelievable.

Ever since that one day. That one day my mom decided to turn me down, I can't look at her the same way I used to. I used to look up to her, I used to look at her and say in my head that I wanted to be like her when I grow up. Smart, organized, and strong.

She's strong because she lost something she truly did love. And that is my dad. That day when he decided to leave us, my mom broke down. Every night, morning, everyday. But through this hard new conflict our family was experiencing, she managed to stay strong. She continued with her life, but I knew that her tears were threatening to fall out when I talked to her.

But then that day came. She got drunk again. That very moment when I found her drunk in our house, I was about to break down. I couldn't stay strong. My own mother drank her problems away in our own house.

That's disappointing and embarrassing to explain. I never wanted to mention that day ever again. It made me feel, sad.

But through this week there was one person who managed to help me keep my head up. And that person is the one and only Liam Payne.

He's been sticking by my side all through this week and I couldn't be happier. This is what I meant when I said he did so much for me. 

I'm still his fake girlfriend and we think we've managed to make Cody maybe a little bit jealous, so were making progress.

Liam still likes her, or should I say love. He started to cry the other day because he found out that she was going on a date with some senior named Brandon. Liam and I weren't in the best of moods this week, but we kept each other company and that's what made us happy.

 Through the time Liam and I have been fake dating, I think I've started to develop feelings for him, but every time I'm with him all he talks about is Cody. It did hurt, so then I just realized that liking him was pointless so, why try right? He has Cody, and besides, I have my eye on another guy I've always liked.

Today was Friday, thank god! I'm so sick of school. I just want summer to come so badly. I just got home and Madison is with me. It's gonna be one of those night where you just eat junk food and watch movies all night.

I was about to put in a movie but my phone vibrated.

Liam :) -

Hey babe! Don't forget that today I wanted to take you somewhere. Remember what I said over the phone? This night is going to be just like old times:) Get ready! I'll be there soon love.

Shit. I forgot about that, and plus Madison is with me, so it would be rude of me to just bail out.

"Who texted you?" Madison asked, throwing a piece of popcorn in the air and catching in her mouth.

"Um, Liam did. Madsion, the other day Liam told me he wanted to take me somewhere today and I totally forgot about it until he texted me." I told her, feeling really disappointed.

 "That's awesome! Where is he taking you?" She asked, surprisingly sounding very happy.

'You're not mad? I was expecting you to be sad because we can't hang out tonight anymore." I said.

"Well, I can wait until you come back, it's really no big deal. Now, lets go get you dressed!" She said grabbing my arm and pulling me into my room.

I decided to text Liam real quick to get details.

To; Liam:)

Hey Li! About tonight, what should I wear and when are you going to be here? Xx
