"ARE YOU SHITTING me!" Liana yells into the phone as I try to yawn with one eye close and the other partly narrowing. It's Saturday morning and I don't even get to wake up when I feel like. She's been ranting about a picture and I don't even know what she's saying. I just want to go back to bed. "You've not been listening to me. I could kill you right now!"
"I could slice you too for waking me up so early." I threaten.
"It's almost 8am—you lazy ass!" She shouts like she's talking to a child and I frown.
"Just start all over again" I say wryly, rubbing my eyes with the back of my hand.
"I saiiiiddddd—whew!" She pauses like she is taking a break from a marathon race and then continues. "There are few pictures of you and that hottie staying in your apartment—going around." Hottie? What hottie? In my apartment?
William. I must say, William is a hot stuff. even a blind woman would know that.
"Are you both now a thing? 'Cos the pictures on those sites says you are. Oh my gosh! Violet! Do you ever plan to tell me? You sneaky little bitch! We are bff for christ sake!" Liana whines and I just go speechless with my mouth wide open. I can't believe there are pictures of William and me going around. How did that happen?
"I have no idea what you're talking about" I reply.
"You don't?" She questions quietly. "It's been up for like 2 days but I just came across it and I thought—"
"Send me a link right now"
"Uh...Ok. Just a sec." She says and goes quiet while I wait patiently. Hearing the beep of my phone, I look down at it; quickly going through the link. My eyes widens in bewilderment and I almost burst out laughing when my eyes lands on the headings. My sleepiness is suddenly flying out the window.
William Wright finally showing off his woman.
Does it mean William hasn't publicly been with someone in a long time or he hasn't been with someone at all? He probably doesn't like to show them off in public even though I've seen him with few women. Those women were never relevant after all.
This is crazy and funny at the same time. I'm already been refer to as his woman. How interesting that sound. Does he knows about this? He would have said something if he does. He would have told me.
Staring at the pictures, I can see they are pictures of us walking out of the restaurant we had lunch few days ago. We are clearly looking like one perfect couple because we both look happy.
We look perfect.
After ending the call with Liana I hurry out of my room to the living room only to find Liam pacing around the living room while on the phone.
His brows are a roughly meeting each other and he's constantly raking his fidgeting hand through his hair.
"Get the damn thing off already!" he blusters into the phone. He seems so furious at the person on the phone and I wonder who it is.
I wait patiently for him to finish speaking to whosoever it is he's clearly trying to murder on the phone.
When he finally hangs up, I approach him.
"Did you know about this?" I ask, showing him the screen of my phone. He raises his brow at me before looking at my phone, then back at me.
"Does it look like I care about what is on your phone?"
"Just answer me already. You knew all this time and you never told me"
"Why does everyone keep making a big deal about it? It's just a fucking picture. And shitty rumours have been going around because of it."
