Arriving at school the next day Niall was the first to hug Liam kissing his cheek afterward. The tow-headed boy feels the guilt burning in his stomach, having slept with Liam's brother suddenly didn't feel as good now as it did before. He had known Connor his whole life, even played with him before as younger kids. Back when Connor and Liam really liked each other, before Liam became "Loser James" and Connor turned to an asshole.
Although maybe that's what Niall liked most about Connor the fact that everyone thinks he's an asshole when really he's deep, and so much more than a sarcastic jerk.
Approaching his first period Liam sighs softly seeing his partner on his phone, he claimed it to be the new found confidence he gained when telling his Papa no; but in reality, Liam just didn't want to be treated as if he was less than anymore. Didn't want to be known as the fuck up anymore.
"Morning," Liam greets settling for nothing less of a glance his way with a raised eyebrow, "The project is almost done, you're okay with finishing it, right?" Zayn asks Liam giving a shy nod collecting the flash drive Zayn handed him, "Y-yeah sorry but um, I-I had things going on yesterday. M-More then I thought." Liam explained as to why he hadn't texted Zayn to come over, "'S okay, stupidly easy project." Zayn mumbles rubbing the back of his neck, "Our Powerpoint should be in the folder labeled Group 1." Liam nods scribbling the tad bit of information down on a scrap sheet of paper, "D-do you uh, do you want to come over today?" Liam asks nervously, his puppy chocolate eyes drowning in the honey hazel, "Sure," Zayn remarks not truly paying attention, "Great! W-we can finish it together then, um can you just meet me a-at the circle after school then? M-my driver will pick us up." Finally, Zayn places his phone down his eyes flickering onto each and every feature Liam's face gives, "Your driver?" He repeats raising an eyebrow, "You don't drive?"
"N-never learned how." Liam admits hanging his head, "Why?"
"M-my parents are busy, r-real busy." Zayn shrugs, "Tell your driver to take the day off, I can take you." Liam goes wide-eyed shaking his head, "I-I really appreciate the o-offer b-but my parents would kill me." He suddenly remembers the beating he received last year when Niall drove the two to the mall.
As much as he was lashed for going into public, Liam was also scolded for being in the car with someone other than his driver.
"Okay, well I'll meet you in the circle after school then." Zayn agrees bidding Liam a goodbye as he grabs his backpack heading to the teacher asking to leave. Liam feels himself frown seeing Zayn leave the room, yet he smiles as he realizes the fact that this was a technical date.
Oh shit. A DATE!
Flinging his arms out in panic Liam turns in his seat to see Niall living it up in the back with Nick, therefore he grabs his phone sending a quick text to address the situation,
To Neil: I did something.
Niall glances down when he feels his leg vibrating, he furrows his eyebrows unlocking the message before typing back a reply,
To Lee-yummy: Hit Puberty?
Liam scoffs reading the grey bubble with an eye-roll,
To Neil: No Ni, serious.
To Lee-yummy: I waz bein serious LJ
To Neil: I invited Zayn over.
Almost dropping his phone, Niall flinches at the sudden jerk he has by shock.
To Lee-yummy: U WHAT?! WHAT U THINKIN?!
To Neil: It was for the project.
To Lee-yummy: Project get Laid ;)
Liam turns in his seat glaring at Niall before sending him an equally angry emoji over the message,
To Neil: Stop being a pervert.
To Lee-yummy: I'm not the one inviting strangers into my house.
Ending the conversation, Liam locks his phone setting it back in his bag. Part of him thought to ask his parents for permission. But perhaps they wouldn't be home. Maybe things would be back to normal now that they know that Liam's okay.
