In My Dreams

Chapter 31: Questions

Claire's POV

I know I promised that I will never forgive Liam. I promised that I will never accept his many times apologies. Yet, here I am, waiting for Liam as he falls in line in the long queue of the cafeteria for our lunch.

Few minutes, Liam came with 2 tray being held with each of his hands.

I rolled my eyes as I walked towards him from my seat and took my tray away from him. "I told you I can just fall in line for my own lunch."

He chuckled. "It's okay. I insist."

I gave him a warm a smile and replied, "Thanks, Liam. You know, your giving me more reasons to forgive you."

"Really? Thanks. That really means to me," he stated.

"Wow, I'm flattered. It felt like I'm so important," I said.

"You are."

I blushed without any reason. Yeah, no reason. I think?!

"So, let's eat?" I asked.

"Sure."

"You know, I'm surprised your eating rice in lunch," Liam said.

I cocked an eyebrow and responded, "Is it bad?"

He shook his head. "No. But you just said you don't eat rice because of heavy lunch and then you'll get sleepy?"

"Well, I barely eat heavy lunch. Only when I really hungry," I answered.

"Well, good for you. Me, I can't help but eat many," he admitted.

I smirked. "Obviously."

"You notice?" he yelped, shocked.

I nodded with a grin. "Obviously."

"I knew it," he murmured with a pout.

I mentally giggled. He's so cute.

Wait, what?! Did I just say his cute? Oh, my...

Stop it, Claire! I commanded myself.

"Are you okay?" Liam asked, looking concerned. Too much, actually. Weird.

"Y-Yeah, I-I'm f-fine," I stuttered.

He doesn't seem to give in to my lie, but he thankfully dropped the subject. Whew, I mentally wiped my forehead.

"Don't worry. I'm good," I finally managed to assure him as a lie.

He smiled. "That's good. I won't like it if you get sick."

I blushed once again. "R-Right," I stuttered.

After eating, we heard the bell ran and I went to my next class with a grin on my face.

Oh, Liam. I don't know why you make me so happy everytime I see you.

Liam's POV

"Hey, look who's here! Liam Xavier Collins!" Ethan sounded like 'happy' to see me.

"Oh yeah!" Bryan butted in.

I stood up from my seat and hissed, "Ethan..shut up, okay? Don't ruin my day."

Ethan smirked. "Whatever, Mr. Jealous."

I cocked an eyebrow. "Where'd you get that stupid nickname?"

He snickered. "Stupid? It actually suits you. Your jealous of me."

I laughed. "Of you?! Whoa! Why di you even say that?!"

"Because I managed to talk to Claire."

I then gave him an 'are you stupid' look. "What the...I actually talked to Claire manier times than you."
