Chapter two— death o'clock
"Hey princess?,wake up" i opened my eyes "Liam? What are are you doing here at" i looked past Liam to check the time "4:00 in the morning?!" he chuckled "well i'm waking you up for school" i sat up and hit him on the chest "Liam, i do not get up this early for school!" he smiled "well today you do because we are going to the gym before school, or did you forget?" my mind wandered back to this weekend when we went to the park and he asked me if one day i wanted to go to the gym with him in the morning. "Liam when i said yes to going to the gym one morning i thought you meant one day on the weekend not today at freaking four in the morning before school!" he stared at me "well we are going so" i rolled my eyes "no thanks charming" with that statement i laid back down and pulled the covers over my head. I felt someone lay next to me, i stuck my head out from under the covers and saw Liam, i rolled over on my side. "Liam get out." he smiled "why? Why should I? I mean if you're not going to the gym with me to just go back to sleep then why shouldn't i do the same?" i rolled my eyes again "You can Liam, just not in here with me." he frowned "why not, i'm not going to do anything." i bit my lip nervously and sighed " We're friends Liam, and i haven't had a friend since my mom died. I just don't think it will be a good idea, i don't want anything but a friend but at the same time i didn't even want a friend last week.
You constantly stare at me, you constantly flirt with me, i don't think you get it Liam i can't have a boyfriend because it won't last forever. The first time i ever had feelings for someone they faked them for me. Oh and don't tell me you get it cause you dont, you dont know what pain im going through right now." he got up from the bed and just glared at me, i could see the hurt and anger in his eyes. "Actually Elizabeth, i do. I think you forgot my father was murdered, do you not think i felt the same way as you, that love is terrible, people are terrible, that's they will all leave you." he took a deep breath "princess, no one is going to leave you unless you push them away. Remember when i told you i'd never leave you if you push me away" i was sitting up now and i just nodded and smiled "well i wasn't lying Elle" i got up from my bed and ran over to him and hugged him, he must have been shocked because he took in a deep breath then put his arms around me. I hugged him for about a minute then i pulled away " Liam i'm so sorry, i didn't even think about that, i mean of course you've been in this situation before. As i said befor liam in just so sorry you didn't deserve what i said i'm so sorr-" my apology was cut off when Liam's lips reached mine. I gasped inside his mouth in shock, "Princess i'm tired of hearing you say you're sorry" i glared at him " oh great what did i do now? Was it the kiss"
i slapped him across the face instead of his chest this time "that was my first kiss stupid!" his eyes lit up but not from excitement "oh my, i'm so sorry princess i didn't know, if i would have known i wouldn't have done it i'm so so sorry!" i smiled "there is no need to be sorry for anything" i saw a smirk start to creep up on his face "so, are you trying to say you liked it? Tell me princess." i felt the blood flow reach up to my cheeks so i looked down at my hands "yea charming, yea i really did." to my surprise i felt Liam's fingers lift my head up, i saw him start to lean in. our lips were so close to touching then i heard my dad "Elizabeth? Are you up it's time for school." i looked over at my alarm clock and it read 5:00. "Yea dad i'm wide awake" i saw liam smile at what i said "you know charming this doesn't change anything between us, we are just friends." i saw his face he looked kind of disappointed but that changed very quickly to a smirk " yeah, friends who kiss on occasion." i glared at him "now for real this time get out i've got to change." he frowned "fine buzzkill." and with that he snuck back into his window and i got ready for the day. My dad kept on checking up on me making sure i was awake and every time i said the same thing, yeah dad i'm up. While i was getting ready i couldn't stop thinking about him, and that kiss. My first kiss was with my best friend i mean i'm not complaining but wait why am i thinking about this it's stupid, i shouldn't be thinking about this he is my best friend and for heaven's sake why? Why did my best friend have to be so freaking attractive i mean he's got these eyes that i just can fall into and his body oh my lord i can definitely tell he works out! I was stopped from thinking about my way to attractive best friend when my dad called me down for breakfast.When i got downstairs my dad had waffles on the table "dad those look delicious" he smiled "well that's good because they are" I quickly ate the waffles then I cleaned up my mess. With that i ran out the door and went to the bus stop. Once i arrived Ashley smiled at me and i smiled back, then all of a sudden i heard a car pull up. I look over and see Liam "hey charming" he waved and called me over "get in princess" i got into the car and we left. On the way i constantly found myself staring, not at his eyes or anything but his lips. I heard him chuckle a little "can't get enough of me can you princess" i started to blush profusely " i don't know what your talking about" he pulled his car over into a driveway "princess, i can see you blushing. Shal i make you blush even more" he was looking at my lips now, he slowly started to lean in. my brain was telling me to push him away he will leave you, but my heart was telling me lean in you idiot! He was getting closer and closer i decided to listen to my heart, i leaned in and he pulled me close to him, which was pretty hard because we were in a car. While we were kissing my brain told me to stop, i pushed off of him. "I can't" that was all i said. He just stared at me "why?" i just looked in front of me "just drive please" and with that he started driving. I could tell Liam was a little aggravated so i put on some music. Liam looked over at me and smiled "my dad loved this song." i looked at him " my mom also loved this song" he was still staring at me. "Liam you should watch the road" and with that he turned his head and started driving again. Once we were on the highway we finally started talking, we ended up talking about love don't ask me how because i don't even know. He knows that i don't believe in love but ever since i laid eyes on Liam i just felt like i need to know him, to love him. While we were in the car after that conversation i was just smiling to myself. Then out of the blue a car came speeding our way and bam, it crashed into my side of the car.
Liams P.O.VShe was still, she was barely moving, i could see the her chest rising and falling still but i needed her awake, i need her to be ok. The doctors told me to wait where i was, so i did, i waited for what seemed like hours. When the doctor came over to me he was upset, i just shook my head and started to feel my eyes start to water. "Please, please tell me she is ok, tell me anything but what you're about to tell me." the doctor dropped his head "Sir im very sorry but she's dead, she was doing fine but then she just flatlined, you can go and say your final words." i ran past the doctor and ran into the room, when i got in the room she was on the bed dead. I walked to her side and got on my knees "Princess, i know i've only known you for not even a week but, you were special to me, no you are special to me and you always will be. When we first met you told me you push people away because you are afraid they will leave you, the ironic thing is that i didn't leave you, you left me. I guess it was just your time, oh and you want to know something i was slowly falling in love. I am leaving this place now i'm going to move back to my old home town, i'm sorry this happened to you, i wish it didn't, i will never forget you princess, i hope you find your real prince charming up there in heaven." With that i held her hand and cried my eyes out then i left, i will never forget my princess.
