Chapter 7

His arm was around me when I awoke. It made me warm inside hearing his quiet breaths. Liam Payne, is mine. All mine. Wow. I've always dreamed of him being mine and now that he is, it's surreal. I looked up and saw his hair a little messed up and his tank top strap slipping down his arm. Tomorrow is the day of the visitation and I'm a little upset, but he deserved it at the same time. I still feel bad for Liam. He's too good of a person to be going through this. His eyes fluttered opened with a small smirk on his lips. "Morning babe." "Morning Liam." He placed a kiss on my forehead. "Lazy day?" "Please." He smiled and kissed me sweetly. "Li, a-are you feeling any better?" He tensed up a little. "Yeah...I just-I can't believe that happened." "Babe, you had to protect yourself." "I wasn't thinking about protecting myself really...all I was thinking was I had to make sure he wouldn't hurt you again." This made my heart melt. I hugged him tight. "You truly have a heart made of gold." He kissed the top of my head. "I just-when I saw those bruises, I knew I had to stop it. I hate it when a man places his hands on a woman in a hurtful way. Especially when it's you...I don't know what got into me. I went full rage. I'm glad you didn't see...it was horrible. And I'm sorry but your living room's a mess." "All I care is that you're okay and you're here with me." He smiled and kissed me. We started making out and he pulled me on top of him. As we pulled away, our lips lingered. "I love you Ames." Did he just say that? "I love you too Liam." We stared at each other smiling. I think we were both happy to just have each other. "I'll go fix some breakfast." "You sure babe?" "Yeah. It's one of the gifts to you for being so good to me and for letting me stay here." "Babe, I'd always let you stay here. I'd never kick you out or not welcome you." I smiled. "Thanks Liam." I rolled off him and went downstairs. I got out some eggs and bread. I then grabbed some sausage. As I was putting the bread in, arms snaked around my waist. "Hey babe." He mumbled into my neck. "Hey Liam." He put his hands on my hips and started swaying. As I finished up the eggs and sausage, he kissed my cheek. "Thank you babe." "Thank you for everything you've done." I turned around in his arms and stood on my tiptoes to kiss him. He smirked. "Little short huh?" "Little hot huh?" He smirked wider and kissed me again.

"That was really good babe. Thanks." "You're welcome." He walked over and picked me up. "Let's go back upstairs." I nodded as he carried me up. He sat me on the bed carefully. "Can I post something again?" "Of course." I handed him my phone and he pulled up my tumblr. "Babe, do you wanna go public?" "I don't care...I'm worried about hate though." "I'll be here for you...don't worry." I smiled. "I know." He leaned down and kissed me. "I took a picture of that." "Oh you did?" "Mhmm...and it's going on Twitter and tumblr." I laughed lightly. "Alright." After he handed me back my phone, I saw what he posted on tumblr. "Me and my girl!! (Aka Amy!!) -Liam Payne Xx" I smiled to myself and checked my twitter. He posted the picture and the same caption. "I don't deserve you..." "Now, why would you say that?" "Because, you've been so caring to me and you barely know me. You make me feel like royalty when all I am is a burden." "Hey don't say that. You're amazing-" "See what I mean?" I asked laughing. He smirked and held me close. "I do it because I love you. It's called 'love at first sight' babe." I smiled goofily. I started having fuzzy feelings in my stomach. I put my arms around his neck. "I love you Liam." "I love you to the moon and back." "How'd I get so lucky?" "What do you mean?" "I was just some random fan at a concert and you happened to notice me. I could've very well been sick, got a different seat, not been able to come, Nathan not have agreed, and you not to just feel the urge to talk to me. I'd still be with abusive and cheating Nathan but yet here I am with Liam Payne, a very caring, attractive, sweet, loving, international celebrity." He smiled and kissed me hard. "And here I am with the most beautiful, humble, nice, caring woman in the world. I think I was the lucky one." My stomach erupted in butterflies. He pulled me as close to him as possible and played with me hair. "You should let me do your hair some day." "Oh yeah?" I asked smirking. "Yeah, I could do it like this-" He said, twisting a group of my hair and putting it on top of my head. "Oh no. I don't think so." I said laughing. "No?" He asked, laughing as well. "No. Not at all." We were both laughing hard now, enjoying each other's company. "I could stay here for hours." "Let's do it then." I smiled up at him. That's exactly what we did.

"Ready babe?" "Yeah." I grabbed his hand. "You alright?" "I'm fine...just thinking. You?" "The other day just keeps replaying in my head." "It'll be okay babe." I said, leaning up to kiss him.

We walked in to see a surprisingly long line. We stood in the back of the line. Some girls stared at Liam and others didn't even notice him, yet nobody went up to us. I'd rather them not. Not today anyway. He linked our arms together and kissed my head. As we neared the casket, his family eyed me. "Li, they recognize me." I whispered. "It'll be fine." As we stood beside the casket, I noticed Liam staring off. "Babe, you alright?" "Oh, uh yeah.." As we passed his family, I heard, "You broke his heart." I turned on my heel. "I didn't break his heart. He broke mine. If you would've known what he did to me..." "Oh yeah? I'd like to know what my little angel did." His mum said raising an eyebrow. I showed her the bruises. "This. He abused me. He even cheated on me after 6 months of us being in a relationship. How dare you say that I broke his heart." "C'mon babe." Liam said, escorting me out. "You saw the fight didn't you?" He nodded hesitantly. I wrapped my arms around him. "I'm here to talk if you want." "It's fine...let's go home. We can have some fun." I smiled. "Alright."
