*Chapter 2* Sorry I haven't posted in so long! I hope to be more active! Please continue reading my story! Love you guys that read my story! xx

I was right.  It was Liam.  He didn't try to make me come out, he just started talking. "Maria, I'm so sorry.  I did not mean to yell at you and I never plan on yelling again! You're to important to me. I don't want to loose you." I just sat there.  Liam really wasn't one to scream, so I know he meant it.  I still didn't say anything and he kept talking.  "I guess I was just being... I don't know... I was just worried the whole time you were dating him.  He just didn't seem right.  I guess I was being a little protective and I'm really sorry.  Please forgive me, Maria.  I am truly sorry and I can't stand you being upset."  I could hear Liam's voice starting shake.  I came out of my hiding place and and started to walk towards Liam, but being myself, I tripped on a rock.  Liam quickly reached out and grabbed me around the wasit to stop me from falling.  I looked up into his still sad eyes and said a quick, "Thanks, Liam." "Anytime..." "But... you were right...I thought Will was the right one and you kept telling me he wasn't... I should've listened to you. I'm sorry!" I said and flung my arms around his neck and started crying into his shoulder.  "Please don't cry, love..."  I continued to bawl so he picked me up and I wrapped my legs around his waist and he carried me back into the house.

He opened the door and walked over to the couch and laid me down on it.  He then just started to walk away. "Liam, where are you going?" I asked with desperation in my voice.  "I'm just going to go get you some water and a blanket.  Do you want to watch a movie?" "Ok! And thanks!" "What movie do you wanna watch?" "Surprise me, Liam!" I replied with a wink even though I knew what he would choose.  He came back a few minutes later with a big, purple blanket and a water for me, along with Toy Story 3. Who would've known!?  "Really, Liam?" I asked with a smirk spreading across my lips.  "What?!" "Toy Story? Really? We've watched that at least ten times!" "Oh well!" he laughed as he stuck the DVD in the player and turned the tv on.  He came over and sat down beside me.  I sat up and adjusted myself, laying my head on his lap as he laid the blanket over my body.  We didn't talk at all, but I wasn't very focused on the movie... my mind was wondering off to other places.  I remember feeling Liam stroking my hair and starting to think about the other night, when I just fell asleep. 

I woke up, not on my couch, but in my bed.  I tried to move, but found I was imprisioned in someone's arms.  "Good morning, beautiful." I heard him say.  I turned around to face him and said "Morning. What time is it?" I rubbed my eyes.  "Ummm... Ten o'clock." "Ok, let's go downstairs and get something to eat." I hopped out of the bed and started towards the door when I tripped on my purse that was on the floor.  On my way down, I hit my head on my dresser, which didn't feel so amazing! "Oh my God, Maria!" "Oww!!!" I was laying on my stomach on the floor with my head in my hands when I felt a pair of strong arms wrap around my waist and pull me too me feet.  "Let's go get some ice. And you need to watch where you're going, Maria! You trip over everything!" Liam laughed and picked me up bridal style and carried me downstairs to the kitchen and sit me on one of the bar stools.  I watched Liam as he walked to go get me an ice pack and come back.  He was...perfect. Just everything about him.  His hair, his nose, his eyes, his lips, the way he walked, the way he talked, and the way he cared for the boys and his family.  He came over and handed me the icepack.  I put it on the spot I hit and winced at the cold that suddenly took over my body.  Liam went over to the fridge and started to pull out some food for breakfast and then walked over to my iHome where I had my phone already plugged in.  He turned it on and Little Bird by Ed Sheeran came on.  I started singing to the part where the song had picked up.  "Take a walk out in the morning dew.  We could lay down, so I'm next to you.  Come inside for a little homemade tea, and if you fall asleep, then atleast you're next to me. And if I wake up, you say its late love, go back to sleep.  I'm covered by nature.  And I'm safe now, underneath this oak tree, with you beside me." Then Liam joined in the chorus, walking over and grabbing my empty hand in his, both of us smiling. "And if I kiss you, will your mouth read this truth? Darlin', how I miss you.  Strawberries taste, our lips do.  And its not complete yet, musn't get our feet wet, 'cause that leads to regret, divin' in too soon.  And I'll owe it all to you, my little bird."  The song continued but Liam and I just looked at each other, smiling.  Liam broke our gaze and released my hand and turned away to start making breakfast.  Did I just have a "moment" with my best friend?

Breakfast was great.  Liam made eggs, bacon, and pancakes, which was my favorite! "Thank you, Liam.  That really was great." I smiled at him.  "Your welcome, love." He walked over and took the ice pack from me to put back in my freezer then came back to me.  He grabbed both of my hands to help me out of my chair and when I got down i slipped on some water that had dripped from the ice pack, but he grabbed my arms and pulled me close to him.  Our faces were only inches apart and Liam started to lean in.  In the background I heard Kiss Me, which is also by Ed, playing.  What a coincidence... Our lips touch and I wrapped my arms around his neck and his hands moved to my waist. He started to pull me closer right when his phone started ringing.  We both pulled away and i bit my lip and tucked a piece of hair behind my ear.  "Answer it. I'll leave.." I said as I walked out of the kitchen.  "Really, Harry? You had to call right now?..."  I allowed myself to crack a mile before walking upstairs and into my bedroom to change.

I threw on my white shorts, a Guy Harvey shirt that was a little large on me, and my Chacos.  It took a minute to figure out what to do with my hair so I just put it in a ponytail and stuck a headband in my hair.  I went and founf my iPod to play some music because I had left my phone downstairs.  I decided to listen to One Direction's album.  I started to do my makeup when Moments came on, which reminded me.... What had just happened? Liam is my best friend, he's always been my best friend.  Did he like me? Did I like him? I don't know... this is all too sudden... I just "broke up", I guess with Will... My train of thought was interrupted by Liam knocking on the door. "Come on in!" I yell from the bathroom.  He walks through my room and into the bathroom where I am.  "What are you getting all ready for?" He asks. "Nothing. Just getting ready for the day." "Well you don't need all this makeup.  You're beautiful without it." he said grabbing my makeup bag and ran away.  "LIAM GIVE ME MY MAKE UP!" "NOT UNTIL YOU PROMISE THAT YOU'RE NOT GOING TO WEAR IT!" "NO!" I yelled back running to the ledge that looks down onto the living room, where hhe's standing. "Then no makeup for you." he says with a smirk. "Fine." I saw and he starts to walk back upstairs with my makeup.  I ran into my bathroom and finished my mascara which I had started before he came up.  He walked in right as I finished and handed me my makeup as he sat down on my bed. He glances over at my desk and spots my Up All Night Tour DVD and smiles. "What?" I ask.  "A fan, are we?" He smiles.  "Yes! Of course! They're hot!" "Oh, so I'm hot?" he says raising an eyebrow. "I think they're all adorable, but NIALL IS ONE SEXY BEAST!" Liam laughed but you could tell he was a bit jealous. :I'm kidding, Li.  You guys have amazing music and they're all adorable, but you're my best friend.  I don't even know them." Again, he looked kind of disappointed by something I had said. Probably the best friends thing... but he quickly covered it with a smile and hugged me.  "Maria?" "Yes, Liam?" "Would you want to meet the boys?"
