Liam's P.O.V

I brought breakfast up to Kim the following morning. She seemed pretty freaked after last night. For the craziest reason she thought she was Selena - of all people - in our garden yesterday! I told her she was mistaken, but she continued to insist that it was her. 

"Honey...?" I knocked on the bedroom door before walking in. I placed the tray on the edge of the bed before sitting on the bed besides Kim. She was lying on top of the duvet, cuddling the pillow and looking out to the balcony. She looked really shaken up. "Kim...are you sure?" I asked once more. 

"Yes!" Kim repeated, turning over to face me. "It was her Liam! She's back!" Kim suddenly broke down into tears, she got up off the bed and ran into the bathroom sobbing into her hands. I didn't know whether to leave her alone for a bit or not so I decided to wait on the bed. A few moments later she stepped out, sniffing sharply and patting her eyes. She sat down besides me and shook her head softly. "First this thing with Josh...then you...now this" She laughed weakly. "Why is all of this happening?" I sighed.

"I don't know Kim...but it'll be ok"

"How can it? My own husband doesn't even return my calls anymore!" I frowned. 

"What are you talking about Kim?"

"You left me alone to past midnight last night Liam!" I looked at her in confusion. "You won't even talk to me properly..."

"Was it really that late?" Kim nodded. 

"Yes, it was" 

"I'm sorry about that Kim, Jayden took my phone off me - he must've turned it off or something?" I took Kim's hand. "You don't need to worry about us anymore Kim, I love you more than anything else in this world - you know that don't you?" 

"It wouldn't hurt to show it once in a while" Kim mumbled. I laughed before putting my arm around her. 

"You're right, I promise I will from now on...I'm sorry"

"Don't you remember our promise?" She asked me, smiling. I laughed, recalling that promise from the sauna. I kissed her forehead sweetly. 

"Sorry" 

I stood up to walk away but Kim held onto my hand tightly. I looked down at her in confusion. 

"What about Josh?"

"What about Josh?" I asked. 

"Liam...you know that this can't carry on" I sighed and looked around for some sort of answer. 

"Ugh...alright...I'll talk to him"

"Thank you" Kim said, standing up and hugging me tightly. "What did I do to deserve you?"

"You're you...that was enough" I replied slickly. Kim pulled away and slapped my shoulder playfully. 

"Don't you think we're a bit old for cheesy lines?"

"Don't you think we're a bit old for stupid questions?" 

***********

"Do it" Kim appeared in front of the T.V, blocking my view of the football game.

"Kim!" I whined, she stepped forward and handed me my phone. 

"Liam, you said you would" I sighed and took the phone from her hands. I began to dial as she sat down on the edge of the sofa. 

"Hello?" I was sort of shocked to hear Josh's voice, from speaking almost every day to not speaking for so long...it was weird.

"H-Hello?" I stuttered, before clearing my throat.
