A Slightly Awkward Romance

Chapter Five

BLAIR POV

Awkward. That's the one word I can use to describe this current situation. Everyone's kind of just sitting silently looking at each other. Besides Lillian who's probably on Snapchat. On more then one occasion I've looked up at Liam and he's looking at me. I hate that he and Lillian slept together. He seemed so nice before I found that out.  Now I should probably send him to an STD clinic.

We've all finished our meals and Mrs. Darren stands up to take all of the plates to the kitchen. "Do you need a hand with that." I say standing up to help.

"That would be great, thank you Blair." She says smiling gratefully. I collect a few of the plates and cutlery near me and walk into the kitchen after Mrs Darren. "Just stack them by the sink, I'll deal with them afterwards." I put them down and we walk towards the living room where everyone is sitting on various sofas and chairs. I look over to Liam and Lillian, sitting on a sofa together. Liam's trying to get as far away from Lillian as possible without being rude, contrasting Lillian's need to be right next to him.

I chose to leave them be and sit on the floor by Calum and Lucy instead. They're playing with Lego's and seem to really be hitting it off. I sit to the side of Lucy and she leans her head back on me smiling. I've always gotten on with Lucy better then Lillian. I just hope for both her sake and my sake she doesn't end up like Lillian. That would be a mess.

The adults leave into the kitchen to get to know each other better leaving just us lot in the living room. I close my eyes and lean back on the wall behind me. I heard some rustling next to me and there's a thump on the floor. I open my eyes and see Liam sitting next to me looking at me and smiling. I give him a small smile and in a quiet voice say, "Hey."

His smile widens and in a small voice he just mutters a, "Hey," back to me.

"She stressing you out?" I ask him nodding my head towards Lillian, who was currently taking a selfie while doing the infamous duckface with elbows touching giving the illusion of cleavage. Liam just nods.

Liam leans his head on my shoulder and I feel both awkward and a strange sense of bliss and relaxation. I'm now terrified to move my body because I don't want him to move his head. "So, how about that rematch?"

"HA! I BEAT YOU! I ACTUALLY BEAT YOU! TAKE THAT BLAIR!" Liam shouted while dancing around the living room.

"Oh I let you win." I say with my hands up.

"I don't think so." He replied.

"Why else would I score 3 own goals?" I ask raising a brow.

"Guess you let me win then." He says jokingly smiling.
