"Don't ever call me an idiot again." He says angrily and I shake with fear. His hands are on my arms and I can't reply to him.

"Let her go, Liam, what's wrong with you?!" Matt yells at Liam and pulls me from him.

"I need to be alone right now, okay Matt? I'll see you tomorrow." I manage to mumble, and I leave that place, running.

I knew Liam was damaged and he was loosing himself, but I never thought he could hurt me like he did tonight. I gave up on him this morning, but now I can promise I won't be near him without feeling bad with myself. Liam is dangerous and I won't take any risks.

"So? How did it go?" Sam asks, as soon as I enter our small room. She's on her feet and I swear she may start jumping.

"Good." I answer, and I start undressing my white dress. I don't say anything and when I look at Sam she seems worried.

"What happened to your arm, Bon?!" She starts freaking out and her fists are closed. "I swear a god I will kill him!"

She's about to leave the room, but I put myself in front of the door. She seems so... surprised and angry at the same time. "It wasn't Matt, Sam! It was Liam! He grabbed my arm and left a bruise!"

"Why the hell did he grab you that way? And why were you with him?!" She yells, ready to break the door behind me.

"He showed up there when we were leaving the restaurant and I called him an idiot. He just freaked out, I can't understand!" I explain to her and she sits on her bed again, breathing slowly.

"Why did he freak out like that?" she asks and I sit right in front of her.

"I don't know, Sam... But I do know that I won't even look at him again, he's dangerous." I say, taking a deep breathe.

"Bon... I've known you since we were kids and you never gave up on anyone. I don't think you should start now, especially on Liam. He obviously has some problem and he's dealing bad with it, he needs you. And you are the most amazing person on earth, I know he would listen to you. Just try, please." Sam asks me and I lay on my bed.

Should I do it? Should I try to fix him?

"I don't even know what happened, how can I help him, Sam?" I mumble, while my tears start to appear. "I feel useful for not being able to do anything!"

"But you can, Bonnie! Otherwise, you wouldn't be crying right now!" Sam insists and hugs me. Maybe she is right, maybe I can do something.

"Okay, I will try. Tomorrow. Now I need to get some sleep." I tell her, and I dress my pyjama.

I don't know why I started crying, but maybe that means something. Maybe I know there is something I can do, I'm just not seeing it. I just need to sleep on it.

My alarm wakes me again and because of the annoying sound I'm in a bad mood. Damn, I need to change it. I dress my white jeans and a black tight shirt, and I get out of the room.

When I leave the dorm, I recognize someone who's just standing in front of it. Liam. When he sees me, he walks toward me.

"Hey." He says, but he is nervous. "I-I wanted to say, uhm, that I'm sorry for hurting you last night."

"It's okay, I shouldn't have insulted you." I say, knowing that I'm wrong.

"No, you should have, I was a dick earlier. It's just that what you called me means something to me and I couldn't handle it. I'm sorry." He explains himself. Wait, Liam is apologizing to me? Maybe Sam is right, maybe he is just too damaged.

"I thought you hated me, you know?" I admit, honestly.

He smiles at me and slowly shakes his head. "I don't hate you, I just don't like anyone."

"Why?" my words come out of my mouth and I don't have any control over them.

"Why do you care?" he asks, as cold as ice.

"Because I care about you." I reply, still without any control over my words.

"The last person who said that ended up dead." he says angry and runs away from me.

Now I believe I can help him, he opened up to me, until I said the wrong thing at least. And maybe I know why he acts like that.

I walk to the college's bar and I eat my breakfast. When I'm about to go to class, I find Matt.

"Are you okay?" he asks, hugging me.

"Yeah, everything is fine." I assure. "I gotta go to class, see you later?"

"Sure, see you later!" Matt says goodbye and I leave him. When I'm walking to class I see Liam laying on the green grass looking at the sky. Well, I'm skiping this class.

"You know, it's not your fault." I say, laying next to him. He looks at me surprised and looks back at the sky.

"So you googled me." he seems angry but I think I notice some relieve.

"No. But you obviously lost someone and you blame yourself for it." I explain and he takes a deep breathe.

"You know nothing." He replies with no emotion on his voice.

"I know I'm right, Liam. You're acting just like my mother." I tell him and his eyes open in surprise. Yeah, he wasn't expecting this.

"You can't just compare me to your mother, a lot of people react in a lot of different ways." He tries to say I'm wrong, but I know I'm not.

"Okay, it's fair, because there's only one difference. You haven't killed yourself, at least yet." I say, hurt. I know what I'm talking about, I've lived it.

"I'm sorry about your mother." he sincerely says and I smile, looking at him.

"You know, you should talk to someone. It doesn't have to be me, but if you want to--"

"I don't want to talk to anyone." he says and when I look at him, his eyes are dark again. However, I'm not afraid anymore because I know what is hurting him.

"Still, you should. Just think about it." I insist and I get up, leaving him alone. He really needs to consider talking to someone about his problems. My mother didn't.
