Chapter Nineteen
The Vow
Sienna's POV –
Since that... that night, one Monday came and another went. It had been two weeks – one week until my parents wedding. I bought a dress last weekend with her; it was amazingly gorgeous and I was walking down the aisle, so I had to look good.
Jacob and Chelsea never bothered to show their face – well, Chelsea, I assumed, had collected her things on the Monday of my class and I heard that she moved into a single, which was completely fine by me. I wasn't angry anymore – and that was mainly because of two things.
One, I wasn't heartbroken because my heart was never really in the relationship with Jacob. We were both dwindling and that was okay in some ways, because many relationships didn't last. And if Jacob had broken up with me, I would have been satisfied. We could have at least been friends. But the idiot decided to cheat on me, and not with just anyone, my best friend, too. It was uncalled for and downright devastating. Put aside the fact that we were in a relationship, but we were also really good friends. And so I hadn't just experienced someone cheating on me, but I had to go through having two close friends betray me. And that was what hurt me most.
And the second reason?
Well, it kind of had to do with a certain Turner brother. Mike.
Just joking, Liam.
He... he helped me in so many ways. Just thinking about him brought a blush upon my cheeks as I flicked through my notes, cramming information before my exam on Monday. My mind wondered back to that night where I thought we would really kiss. I hadn't hesitated; I was going to kiss him. And then the damn asshole kissed my forehead. I was ready to kiss him – I had prepared myself for it. He said something like 'having me all healed up before kissing me'. Needless to say, I disagreed.
But I was confused about us. And I hated it. I hated that I was the picture-perfect cliché girl who didn't know where the relationship lied, and thought about the guy day and night.
Liam and I... we spent every single day together. I was either in his dorm, or he was in ours, or we were in the Buttery. We were always somewhere together. Most of the time Mike and Ally were with us, who by the way, had to be awarded cutest couple in the world.
If Liam hadn't been there for me after what Jacob did, I don't think I would know how to really function.
I heard my door creak open, snapping me out of my estranged thoughts. I lifted my head up and my eyes were met with Ally.
"You're still studying? Seriously?" She glared playfully.
"Well, yeah. I plan on having a free weekend so I want to get all my studying done now before I fail." I thought my logic was pretty well thought-out.
"Liam's been waiting for you for twenty minutes! The poor guy is ready to barge in and kidnap you!"
Right... somehow, Liam had managed to get me to agree to meet his family. He wanted to take me to his sister, Rose and her husband, Nate's, place. And... he wanted me to stay a night.
Well, this wasn't today; we were supposed to leave tomorrow morning.
"I told him I needed to study!" I argued.
"He's smitten, Enna, he doesn't care if you fail." Ally smiled.
"That's true, Soze. Not about the smitten part because I'm not. I'm talking about the failing part. You could drop out of college for all I care, you just need to stop f*cking studying and enjoy life."
