That Girl Band (Liam Payne)

Part 15

"Beth?" Liam was sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a mug of something. "Here. We need to get back. Everyone wants to talk to us. This is a huge mess. Louis is in so much trouble. He had to clean up everything and it currently out with a list, trying to replace what he can. Here." He handed me the mug as I sat up. "Drink this. Nancy brought you clean clothes."

"Is there food? I'm hungry. I cannot believe it, but I am."

Liam shook his head. "I just made coffee. I can order you anything you want. What do you want?"

"Carrot Cake." I said.

Liam looked at me, eyes wide, amused. "Carrot Cake? For breakfast?"

I nodded. "It's what I eat when I feel bad."

"You have no reason to feel bad. None. Go shower." He pulled me out of bed and I headed to the bathroom. I heard him pick up the phone to order food. I turned on the water and stepped into the spray, hoping to wash away the guilt I felt about everything. It wasn't working. "Knock Knock!" Liam called. "I'm coming in!"

I paused, thinking about my tattoo. I decided I didn't care anymore. If he figured out who I was, he figured it out. I was done with all of this.

Liam stepped into the shower and took the shampoo bottle from my hand. He squeezed some onto his hand and started to rub it through my hair. I leaned back into him, loving the feeling of his fingers scratching my scalp. When he was done, he pulled the hand held shower out and rinsed my hair. I handed him the conditioner and he rubbed that into my hair before rinsing it again. "I love washing your hair." he said. I guess he didn't notice or care about the tattoo. He had a dozen, himself, so it probably didn't even cross his mind to ask.

"Can I wash your hair?" I asked.

"Can you reach?" he laughed. I grabbed the soap and reached up to wash it. "Oh, I like this! Your boobs are all squished onto my chest." He grabbed my bottom and tugged me closer, grinning down.

"Rinse." I said. He leaned back into the spray and I used my hands to force the soap out. Liam was getting excited. I could feel his manhood start to grow. I looked down. "I guess you do like this."

"Are you done?" he asked. I nodded. "Good." His lips crashed into mine and he lifted me, pressing me against the shower wall. "Have I told you that I love you yet today?" he said, looking into my eyes.

My arms were around his neck. I pulled him closer, kissing him. "I love you, too, Liam." I said. He smiled, kissing me again. He kissed me over and over, moving from my neck to my collar bone, then back up. "I'm ready, Liam. I'm ready." I said. He entered me, gently. He moved in and out of me, not stopping his kisses.

"Tell me when you are ready." Liam whispered. He moved faster and harder.

"Now, Liam. Now." I cried out. My peak hit and I cried out. "Yes! Oh, God, yes!" Liam came, stopping and holding himself in me, breathing heavy. He slowly set me on my feet.

"If we are going to keep doing this, I need to know what you use for birth control? Not romantic, I know. But, I've been careless. I'm sorry."

I smiled at him. "It's okay. I've got a ring that stays in for a year. It's okay. I promise." Liam's face relaxed. I pulled him back down and kissed him again. "Thank you for caring."

"Don't thank me. Purely selfish reasons." Liam shook his head. I shrugged. I didn't care. I didn't care about anything anymore, except him. I only wanted to be with him. I didn't want to go back to Max. I didn't want to face Vi. "We need to get moving. I'm sure that your food is here and, like I said, people are waiting for us."

"Carrot cake?" I said, hopefully.

"Uh, they don't serve that this early, but they have carrot cake pancakes? Does that work?" he asked. I nodded, happy for sugar of any kind. I kissed him one last time, then stepped out of the shower. My bag was on the counter and Nancy had packed me a tee-shirt and jean shorts. I sighed in relief. Pulling on my clothes, I ran my fingers through my hair, trying to shake out some of the water, before leaving the bathroom. The room service tray was waiting and I started to eat my pancakes. Liam appeared from the bathroom and grabbed a fork.

"I will stab your hand with my fork." I said, not even looking up. Liam laughed and tried to take a bite. I lifted my fork and aimed it at his hand. "I'll do it." I said. Liam stopped, put his hand under my chin, lifting it, kissing me. Thinking I was distracted, he tried to take a bite and I stabbed him.

He dropped the fork and jumped back. "Jesus!" he laughed. "You stabbed me."

I shrugged. "Warned you."

Liam forced me onto the bus when we got back. He had a sound check and meet and greet. He apologized, but I told him that it was my problem and I had to face it. The girls were all waiting for me, sitting at the table. I sat next to Vi. "Look..." I started.

Max held up her hand. "Don't. Louis told us that you didn't know. He told us that he lied to Liam, too. Everything that can be replaced, is replaced. We are trying to figure out what to do about Vi's bass. Most of the pictures are even replaceable. But, you need to tell him. Liam, that is. We aren't lying for you anymore."

I nodded. "He saw my tattoo. I think he might know."

"Well, if he doesn't, we will tell him. We will give you a week. Got it?" Jesse said. I nodded again. "Okay, go look at your bunk." I jumped up and went into the bunk area. I had a new curtain. It was a dark purple heavy smooth material. Vi's was Yellow. Everyone else still had the plain blue that had always been there. I pulled back the curtain. Purple bed spread, purple pillow, three sets of drums sticks. My lights were back. They weren't the same, but they were close. I also had a new kindle, book light and book laying on my bunk. There was a huge gold box and when I picked it up it saw that it was a box of Godiva Chocolates. On the top, written in black sharpie, it said 'I'm sorry, Louis.'

"That's not all." Jesse said. She pointed at 'Beth's' bunk. I had another huge box of candy. Bigger than the one on 'Styx's' bunk. It was the size of a laptop. Also, there was a vase of roses and a new panda. "That's why you need to fix this. You got two boxes of candy and I didn't get any!" she was laughing.

I picked up Styx's box and threw it at Jesse. "Here, you can have this tiny box." We all laughed. I hugged Vi. Jesse and Max joined in. Everything was going to be okay.
