Chapter 13

*Liam's POV*

Tom and I arrived back at the dorms within 5 minutes and got out of our cars laughing. He walked over to my car and took my hand in his.

"That was quite something at the restaurant, huh?" Tom said to me, all smiles.

"Yeah. HE was quite something. A really creepy something," I said in return, making him laugh. "But I really did have a great night with you."

"So there's really nothing going on between you and Harry? Like, at all?" he asked shyly, looking down.

I lifted his head to look at me and smiled at him. "Absolutely nothing. I don't know what he told you about 'us', but there's really nothing at all."

"Good. He said you two had 'chemistry' and that you were going out with him tomorrow," he said.

I chuckled awkwardly and looked away from him. "Yeah...He's, uh...weird, to say the least."

"You're not actually going out with him tomorrow, right? Cuz I was hoping you would come to a diving practice with me to watch. It'll be a sight," he said, poking my arm lightly, making me laugh.

"Oh, I bet it will be. You and your...speedo? Isn't that what you wear when you dive?" I asked cheekily as we walked to the dorms, hand in hand.

"You'll just have to wait and see tomorrow. I don't wanna spoil it for you," he said back.

"Don't want me to be looking at the other guys?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Hey! I'M the one who's inviting you. Not them. So keep your eyes only on me tomorrow, okay?" he said, bumping shoulders with me. "And I'll take that as a 'yes' that you'll be there?"

"Yes, I'll be there," I replied with a smile as we reached my door. "Well, this is my room."

"I suppose it is..." he said, trailing off and looking at my lips.

"Okay, fine," I said dramatically, sighing and leaning forward to kiss his lips. He smiled into the kiss and kissed me back. It was a nice kiss...I know what you're thinking. "Just 'nice', Liam? Why isn't it more special than that?" I really don't know. I don't feel a "spark" when I'm kissing Tom. I mean, yeah, he's a good kisser, but...Nothing, really.

When I pulled away after a minute, he was beaming at me. I smiled back fakely, feeling upset that I didn't feel sparks. He may have, but not me.

"Well, goodnight then, Liam. And see you tomorrow, at my diving practice," he said happily, making me feel worse and put on another fake smile. He leaned in and kissed me again. I tried to kiss back as passionately, but it bugged me a lot to feel nothing still. Maybe over time I'll feel something.

"Goodnight, Tom. See you tomorrow," I said back softly after I pulled away.

He smiled and waved at me as he walked away. I sighed sadly and turned around to open my door, when suddenly I felt hands grab my shoulders. They turned me around and I let out a very "non-manly" scream.

"AHH! What the heck, Harry?! Why do you keep doing that?" I demanded once I noticed it was him again.

"So this is where you live, huh? Have to say, I'm disappointed that it's not closer to my dorm," he said, completely ignoring my questions.

"What are you doing here?! How did you get here anyway?' I asked harshly, trying to keep my voice down.

"I followed you and Daley here. Duh," he said, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
