A Story Of Love And Struggle (Liam Payne)

CHAPTER ELEVEN

Ariana was on the bus on her way home on Saturday night when she heard her phone ring from the depths of her bag. She dug her hand inside and scrambled everything until she grabbed hold of it and pulled it out. On the screen, the name Perrie flashed before her eyes.

“Hello Miss Ariana” Said the cheerful voice when she picked up the phone

“Hey! How are you?” She replied

“I’m good, how about you?”

“I’m alright… Tired as ever but… You know… Alright” Replied Ariana as she stretched her sore legs before her

“Well, how about you get some rest tomorrow and come hang out with me? Please tell me you don’t work on Sundays….” Asked Perrie

“I do not work on Sunday… Thank God… And I’d love to come hang out with you!” Replied Ariana excited at the prospect of a girlie chat with her newest friend

“Perfect!! How about you come over to my place and we can figure it out from here” Said Perrie

“Great! What time do you want me to be there?” Asked Ariana

“Why don’t you come here before noon? We could figure out what to have for lunch and spend the rest of the afternoon together”

“Ok…” Replied Ariana, wincing at the thought of waking up early on a Sunday so she could meet Perrie before noon

“I’ll text you the address then!” She said excitedly

“Great… I’ll call you in case I get lost” Added Ariana

“Absolutely… See you tomorrow”

“See you” Said Ariana before hanging up

She looked down at her phone. It all seemed a little surreal but somehow, she had managed to become friends with this girl, who not only was really nice and down to earth, but also a ridiculously famous celebrity.

Just like Liam… She thought.

The rest of the ride home, her thoughts were filled with images of him, having failed in her attempt to keep the thoughts of him at bay for the entire day. She walked as fast as she could like she did every day and waved at the prostitutes from across the street before she entered her building. She sat on her bed and turned on the t.v while she kicked off her shoes.

She fluffed a couple of pillows and stretched her feet before her as she made herself comfortable in her bed. She felt so exhausted that she was sure she was close to dropping dead from pure exhaustion.

She was making sandwiches in the kitchen when a pair of strong arms wrapped around her, making her jump a bit.

“Why did you leave the bed so early?”

“I was hungry” She admitted

“Wanna come back now?” He asked unwrapping his right arm from her waist and running up her right thigh as she was not wearing any pants

“Still hungry…” She replied feeling how his hand slowly made his way to her lacy underwear

“Come on… We can leave the sandwiches for later…” He said making her turn around so she could face him

She looked at his brown eyes and the naughty smile he was giving her and couldn’t help but feel butterflies in her stomach again.

“Liam…”

“Come back to bed with me babe… You’re not allowed to say no” He said before leaning down to kiss her lips

Ariana’s eyes fluttered opened and it took her a couple of seconds to realize she had been dreaming.
