Mr. Payne - Ziam

Ten - Something Great

Tuesday

I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing and groaned a bit. I rolled over and answered my phone. "Hello", I said groggily. "Hey, are you okay?", Liam spoke to the phone and I hummed. "Yea, why wouldn't I?", I asked. "I don't know, you weren't in school so I got worried", he said and I chuckled. "I didn't feel like coming, I needed some sleep", I said and he hummed on the other line. "So you're okay?", he asked. "You just woke me up, I'm annyoed", I said with a chuckle. "Wanna come over to my place later then, I'll make it up to you?", he asked. "What're you planning?", I asked. "We could chill, watch a movie, I don't mind", he said and I smiled.

"Sure", I said. "Yea?", he asked and I chuckled a bit. "Yea", I said. "Pick me up when you get from work?", I asked. "Okay, I get off around three", he said. "Okay, I'll see you in few hours then", I said and felt myself blushing. "See you", he said and hung up. I got up from the bed and walked in my bathroom. I stripped my clothes off and stepped in the shower. I washed myself, stepped out and wrapped a towel around my waist. I brushed my teeth and stepped back in my room.

I walked to my dresser and pulled out some cozy clothes. I pulled on black sweats and a white t-shirt. I slipped bracelets on my wrist and ruffled my hair with the towel. I ran my hand through my hair and headed to my bed. I put my phone, keys, cigarettes and lighter in my pockets and walked downstairs. I stepped out of the house, smoked a cigarette, stepped back in and walked in the living room. I sat on the couch and turned the tv on. I started to watch the show it was playing when I turned it on.

After a while I got a text from Liam saying he was in front of my house. I walked to the door, pulled my shoes on and stepped out. I got in Liam's car and gave him a small smile. "How are you feeling?", he asked. "I'm good", I said and he nodded turning the radio on. "So you just didn't feel like coming to school today?", he asked and I nodded. "I was tired", I said with a small chuckle and he nodded. "Well three more days", he said. "Four technically because I have to wake up early Saturday morning", I said and Liam chuckled. "I guess", he said.

Liam parked the car in front of his house and we got out. We walked in and kicked our shoes off. "By the way, do you remember what you said to me when you drunk called me?", Liam asked and I blushed nodding. "The push me against the wall, I know you like it rough too one", I said and we sat down on the couch. "Yea, that one", Liam said with a chuckle. "Was it true?", he asked and I almost choked on my saliva. "I write from personal stuff, remember?", I said and he nodded smirking. "Yea, good, me too", he said and I chuckled a bit.

I fiddled with my bracelets because they made my wrist itch and saw Liam stare. "You can take them off you know, it looks like they make you uncomfortable", Liam said and I shrugged. "I don't want to look at them", I said. "You don't have to", he said and I nodded a bit. I slipped the bracelets off and placed them on the coffee table. I rubbed the scars a bit with my hand and sighed. "Hey", Liam said placing two fingers under my chin and lifted my head so I was looking at him in the eyes. "You're beautiful, don't even worry about it", he said and I blushed. "Thank you", I said smiling and he nodded taking his hand away from me.

"Are you hungry?", he asked and I shrugged. "Not really", I said. "Have you had anything today?", he asked and I shook my head. "It's almost four in the evening", he said and I shrugged again. "Come on, let's go make some food", he said taking my hand and pulling me up from the couch. "I can't cook", I said and he chuckled. "I can cook, you can watch", he said and I nodded. We walked in the kitchen and I sat up on the counter.

"Liam, can I ask you something?", I asked as Liam took out all the things he needed. "Of course", he said and I nodded. "When did you realize that the bad boy thing was just an act?", I asked and he chuckled a bit. "I mean I always thought that it was an act but I don't know, probably when you were here for the first time", he said and I nodded. "Okay and did you really think I got beaten up at school?", I asked with a small chuckle and he nodded. "Yea, I mean it's pretty common for bad boys to get in to fights", he said. "I guess", I said with a chuckle.
