Protecting Emily

Chapter 21

"Special visitor Em." Dad said, knocking on my door, interrupting me from messing around on my phone.

I looked up. Dad had canceled the dinner plans from yesterday, so I was a mess. That's to be nice to myself.

I almost screamed when I saw Liam in the doorway.

I went to jump out of bed, only to fall flat on my ass as I got tangled in the sheets.

"Oh yeah. I missed you." Liam nodded, chuckling.

"Stop being an ass and help me." I stuck my tongue out at him.

He lifted me up.

I noticed dad had left and shut the door.

I gave Liam a big hug.

"I've missed you! Three months! That's... insane!" I exaggerated.

"Yeah... Sorry for the surprise."

"Wait... what are you doing back?! Wait! I didn't watch the placing last night! Did you win?!" I said quickly.

He frowned.

"We didn't win."

My face dropped.

"But we got signed!" He smiled.

I jumped in his arms, screaming.

"OH MY F*CKING GOSH ARE YOU SERIOUS?!" I yelled.

"Yeah! I know right! Simon actually liked us! He believes in us Em!" He smiled.

Seeing Liam be so happy is like watching a little boy on Christmas Eve, so cute!

"So now what?" I asked.

"Well he said he'll call Leeroy in a week or so. This is huge Emily! The Notes- Ugh I keep doing that! One Direction is going to be huge Emily!" He smiled.

"I'm really happy for you Liam." I smiled, giving him a hug.

Have you ever been in love with a guy but secretly 'fancied' his best 'mate'?

I think I'm in that position right now.

"Have you told Liz?" I asked.

He grew quiet.

"Liam..." I looked at him.

"She sort of... broke up with me."

Harry

"There's my girl!" I smiled into the screen at Lux.

"Haz! Are you going to come get me?!" She asked excitedly.

I smiled sadly and shook my head.

"But guess what Lux?!" I smiled.

"What?"

"We got signed! Haz is going to be famous!" I beamed to her.

Lux started screaming.

I chuckled at her.

Niall entered the room, eating a sandwich.

"I gotta go love! Call you later! Love you." I waved.

"Love you Haz!"

Niall sat beside me as I closed the laptop.

"Let's go talk to her man." He shook his head.

"No." I stated.

"Dude you still love Emily. It's been three months! We've been gone longer than your entire relationship now stop being a douche and let's go see her." Niall punched my shoulder.

"She doesn't want to see me Niall!" I yelled.

"You don't know that! Come on." He pulled me.

I groaned.

There was no getting out of this.

Emily

"Don't grow up! It's a trap." I laughed at Liam.

He smiled at me.

I moved around a tad as I laid on my side, adjacent from Liam.

"I don't even know what she meant! Here I am the most mature of all these guys and then she calls me immature. It was just so weird. She said she loves when I'm immature!" He ran a hand through his hair.

"I don't know. It's so... unlike Liz." I shrugged.

"That's what I said about Harry. I mean... he was like a giddy little girl when it came to you and now he's just like screw her... it's like where's your mind lad?" He chuckled.

I smiled and looked down.

"I don't deserve him Liam." I shook my head.

Liam sighed.

"You deserve to be loved." He nodded.

I rolled my eyes.

"Love is such a word to me now. So... overused so... pathetic." I rolled my eyes.

"Love is anything but pathetic Em." He whispered.

"Prove that." I scrunched my nose up, laying on my back. I felt so bad for Liam.

The fact Liz told him to grow up because he's immature is just so unreal.

Mental note, talk to Liz.

Liam placed a hand on one side of my head, basically hovering over me.

A feeling went through me that should not be happening.

"Well... it just sort of..." he leaned down.

My breath hitched.

I noticed how close we were now.

Soon he was only a few centimeters from my face.

When he clenched his jaw and breathed heavily through his nose I stopped breathing.

So in all fairness, I kissed him.

Which wasn't the smartest thing considering my door just creaked open.
