"Your Still The One?" A Liam Fanfic Sequel to "Nobody Compares" by EB

Chapter 22

                               

            He is all I need I just want to free us from anything that can make us sink even further. I have to let him know that we both have had to face a lot things to far too young but together we could make things through. But every time the lingering question its what do we do now? But this time he will have to hear me out. I run out after him and stop him from getting into his car.

            "Why do you always taking things to the extreme?"

            "Me? taking to the extreme? Who was the one that bought her plane ticket back without saying a word at all?" he argues.

            "This is all your fault anyways" I snap reminding him.

            "Well I am fixing it, I'm letting you go so you can be free since all I do is hold you down"

            "Are you being serious right now? For God sakes could you just come inside and we can talk this out?" I say pushing close the driver's door. He avoids to look me in the eyes as he strides past me and makes his way inside.

            "Is everything okay?" Nicola ask as she comes out to the hall.

            "Everything is fine" I lie gently as I follow him up to his room.

            "So what now are you going to pretend to talk to me while you start packing eh?"

            "Do you really want me gone?" the words leaves me speechless as I ask him. I can't pretend that his words don't cut me deep, because they do.

            "If that's what you want" he snarls.

            "Why are you acting like this? You know how much I love you and I.."

            "Oh please can you just drop the "I love you" act already. When you love someone you don't leave them you stick by them." he says throwing his arm in the air in front of him.

            "I have stuck by you day and night you have said it before yourself! How dare you pin this on me. I don't want to leave, but you forcing me to its not really giving me a choice is there?" I step towards him  making him face me.  "You know when you love someone you fight for them too, you don't let them walk away by pushing them either." I shake my head at him.

            "Now more than ever"  I say but I pull out my suitcase out and place it on top of his covers.

            "What the hell does that mean?" Tell me!"  he scans the room and stares at me as I gather my belonging from his wardrobe. I ignore him as I throw everything in my suitcase, which I would normally take my time organizing making sure I didn't miss anything. But not right now, all I wanted was to get out I didn't want to break in front of him. I have shed to many tears over him and many more to come, but if he is not willing to fight for us then I can't either. I have fought for us to many times and this time even though I have to fight even more I'm just too emotionally drained.

            "Well can I least drive you?" he sits on the covers and I can't believe he is really watching me leave and he is just not doing anything to stop my tracks.

Liam's POV:

            "Don't worry your sister can drive me" she says dryly. Her suitcase is fully packed and she is really leaving. I may have pushed her too far, unless she really wanted to leave by now after all that I have said to her. Without saying anything else she just opens the door and walks out.  Seconds after, I run after her but I overhear her lie to Nicola that she has to get to the airport because of  a family emergency back at home.  I hear Nicola grabbing her keys as they both climb into the car. I look out the window to see her sad face hiding underneath her sunglasses.  I run upstairs and an immense sense of guilt and anger rushes over me.
