You Found Me | Liam Payne |

Chapter 16

I park in the back parking lot of the apartment building. I get out of the car and open the door for Liam who has fallen asleep. I have never seen Liam asleep before his face is so tender and pale. To my surprise I lay my hand on Liam's cheek. His cheek is so warm and delicate I could leave my hand here forever. What, what in the world am I talking about this guy right here just insulted me a few hours ago and now I'm complimenting him on his skin. I think I need some help, how did I agree to this again. Liam begins to open his eyes and my hand still remains on his warm flushed cheek.

"What are you.. where are we? Liam groans.

"Were at Ricky's like you wanted" I say sarcastically accidently.

"I'm to tired let me be in my car" Liam groans again turning around to lay back.

"Liam get up you made me drive you over here let's go" irritation begins to consume me again no way was I going to let this slide. First he insults me, locks me in closet, throws a party and now forces me to take him into the apartment. He saved you remember  my subconscious spoke. She was right Liam did save me from that pervert but I don't know why he did that why does he care who I kiss or date. After I let all my irritation out I grab Liam by the arm and begin pulling him out of the car. His body was heavy, I could feel his arm tensing up and gaining back his lost energy.

"I'm to tired carry me Rose" he whispers into my ear, my hands begin to shake and heart begins to repeat its similar beating drum.

"Okay.."  I respond with a shaky voice.

Liam looks up at me and gives me a small smile but seems more of a smirk. I closethe passenger door and turn the lock on. I grab Liam's left arm and wrap it around my shoulders and hold onto his waist.

"Are you trying to seduce me Ms. Rose" Liam says in a drunk tone.

"Only in you're dreams Mr. Payne" rolling my eyes.

It takes at least eight minutes to get Liam to the front door of the apartment. Along the way he kept tripping multiple times and leaving me to pick up the pieces of his drunken state. I turn the knob to the apartment door and I begin to get paranoid as I notice it is locked. I knock and continue to knock on the door but Ricky doesn't answer. I'm assuming a late night shift I guess. I turn over to Liam and see that he pulled out a key from his pocket.

"Man you're hopeless" Liam says inserting the key into the door knob. "What the hell is wrong with this door" he pouts

"Look who's hopeless now" I say reaching for the key from his hand. Liam then backs away having a disturbed look on his face.

"What's wrong?" I ask

"I don't like others doing stuff for me just let me do this okay!" Liam shouts. Why is he being rude again and so defensive I'm just trying to help is that such a crime. I want to shout back at Liam and say fine do whatever the hell you want but I know that wouldn't solve anything. Instead I was able to reply.

"Liam this one time let me help you" his red swollen eyes widen at my kind words. I could tell he was lost from words because he hands me the keys slowly.

We both enter the apartment without him needing my assistance. I hand him the keys back with a scowl on his face. The lights are all off and the only light I can see is the moon gleaming through the living room window. This aura is giving me such a painful tension through my body. I walk over to the kitchen and my hand sets forth to the light switch but a certain hand stops me.

"Don't turn on the lights" Liam whispers in my ear. Why does he do that whenever he whispers in my ear it sends me electricity and makes my stomach tie in knots. I turn around and see Liam staring at me I cant see his eyes clearly the kitchen is to dark. My heart keeps repeating that same drum and I can't handle it anymore. I can hear both Liam and I breathing heavily breaking this safe guarded silence. I rush over to the light switch and flick it. Liam put his hands into his face and begins to moan

"I told you not to turn on the lights" Liam moans again rubbing his eyes rapidly.

'I'm.. I'm sorry, I thought"

"You thought what?" he asks quickly.

"I thought you would fall or pass out" I lie. I honestly thought Liam was going to pull off another one of his games and I wasn't emotionally ready for that. Mostly because I can't explain the reasons why I have this amount of uncertainty unexplainable feelings when Liam is around.

"Why would I fall down?" Liam asks looking confused

"You're drunk and its dark well was dark"

"I'm not drunk"

I roll my eyes back at Liam and begin to walk away to my room I can hear his footsteps right behind me.

"Where are you going?!" Liam shouts

"To my room why do you need to know"

"Lets talk I'm not tired anymore"

"Liam I have work tomorrow and I have to get up super early to clean up the mess you made"

"I told you Jacob would take care of it sit down" Liam says in regular tone but a hint of demand in it.

"No" I simply respond because I knew this one simple word is this weakness to this cold hearted jerk.

"Fine go cry yourself in your room" Liam says under his breath.

"Get out!" I yell holding the tears from spilling out.

"I told you already you cant force me so sucks for you darling" Liam yells jumping onto the couch and wrapping his hands around his neck.

"You're kidding me right after all I did you still act like a jerk you broke me down a few hours ago locked me in a closet and go against my rules and don't even hear me out what the hell is you're problem Liam I live here now so get out!" I am so sick and tired of Liam I cant stand to see him anymore I mean it this time. I'm going to avoid him forever he has to know he cant get whatever he wants by the snap of his fingers. He cant control who ever he pleases and most definitely wont tell me what to do. I'm done and I've been done listening and been told how I should act and what is expected of me I'm me and no one will change that.

Liam continues to stare at me and I finally burst into the flame of anger that I was holding inside.

"You cant control me and I will not change just because of you, you my be able to get everything you want just with one call but not me. You don't care what you're harsh words can do they honestly can damage a person for life you don't think I know already that I cry myself to sleep and I'm not beautiful I've known that my entire life but if you think you can keep telling me these cruel words then oh let me tell me you're in for a hell of ride"

I finally let out all my anger and it feels good but I don't feel that accomplishment and happiness that I desired. Liam eyes are still throbbing red and his eyelashes blinking rapidly towards me.

"You know what i don't care just stay here but you stay away from me if you even look at me or touch me or talk to me I will tell Ricky"

I walk away from Liam and head to the bathroom but I suddenly hear Liam whisper quietly.

"I didn't know I'm.. s--"

I slam the bathroom door to ignore his stupid apology. Was he going to apologize or just drunk talking. My mind drifts off to remembering his cruel words it was like a dream taking me to a place of broken dreams that I couldn't escape. I lay down and fall asleep on the cold marble bathroom floor dreaming off a life before Liam came.
