Hot Harry or Lovely Liam?

10 ~ past.

'Need to see me?', he asked curious.

'Yeah. I think we need to talk about some things.'

'Right. At nine? Your place or my place?'

'This question sounds funny.', Maria laughed, 'But your place.'

'Alright.', Liam laughed.

'See you later.', Maria smiled.

As Liam went around the corner, Harry stood there.

'So? Dating a taken girl?', Harry asked.

'She asked me. Not my problem.'

'Hey, wait! Why don't you join our little rivary? Like always?'

'Because it's stupid. If she really wants me as a friend and you as her boyfriend, we should stop the fighting.'

'And what if I don't want to stop fighting?'

'Then you only proof, how much of a jerk you really are.'

Liam went away.

As Maria got to her room, Lea sat on her bed with her Laptop.

'So? What are you doing?', Lea asked.

'Why?'

'Why are you seeing Liam?'

'Why do you think it's your business?', Maria snapped.

'Because Liam is my friend. And I care.'

'You care? Cute. Liam was my friend first and I know him for so many more months than you do.'

'You think? Don't play with him.'

'As I said, none of your business.'

Maria grabbed her towell and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

In the evening, she got ready and went to see Liam in her room.

As she knocked, Liam opened.

'Hey. You look great.', Liam said.

'Thanks.', Maria blushed.

'Let's sit down on the bed. I got us some popcorn.'

'Thanks.'

'You're repeating yourself.'

'I know. But I have to clear things first.', Maria said serious.

'And what?'

'This is no date.'

'Okay...'

'We are here as friends. I want to be your friend again. Like back then.'

'Back then?', Liam asked.

'Yeah. Before all this.'

She mentions at her outfit.

'Maria....Let's be honest.'

Liam tipped at her chin, so she could look him directly in the eyes.

'Before your, let's say transformation, we haven't been friends.'

'What did you call this?'

'We always have been more than friends, babe.'

'Liam, I....', she stuttered.

'Just say Stop.', he whispered.

He started kissing her and she didn't know how to react.
