Bailamos? | Mark Owen [Take That]

Chapter 21

That night seemed an eternity -I couldn't sleep cuz I kept thinking about what Mark and I had talked about. He wanted to know things about me but he daren't admit he still cared for me. He reminded me of myself a couple of years before, denying what my feelings for him were, pretending everything was cool, trying to convince everyone that Jamie was my one.

"Liz?" I knocked on her door "You sleeping?"

"Gary, I love you too" she mumbled in her sleep.

"Liz?" I softly shook her as I half smiled.

"Candy floss? I can give you something more than that---"

"Liz!"

"Holy shit Angie! What timing you got!"

"I'm sorry..." I sighed "But I need to tell you something"

"I hope it's something really important cuz you woke me up in the middle of my hot dream with Gary"

"So I heard..." I rolled my eyes and sat on the bed "Anyways... I was thinking that it'd be better if I left"

"What the fuck? Where the hell you wanna go?"

"Back home... to Brooklyn. I can't stay here"

"Why not Angie? You got everything you want here...! You got a beautiful house, you're having these auditions Paul is getting you... you're gonna have the life of your dreams here Angie!"

"Oh no I won't---"

"Yes, you will... Don't tell me this is all cuz of Mark"

"Maybe...?"

"Don't tell me maybe stupid woman! You already know he cares for you! The only thing we have to do now is to let him know that there's no twin sister Aimee---"

"See? I can't do that! Why would I do that Liz? That's the reason I wanna leave---"

"Oh my god..." she rolled her eyes "Sometimes I wanna punch you---"

"Mark's getting married Liz... I cannot do anything. He loves this woman."

"Who told you? You read it on the forum or---?"

"I don't read the forum!"

"Yeah, rite... and I don't think Howard's hot"

"Who the hell you like Liz? Howard or Gary?"

"Well----"

"Don't tell me you also like Jason!"

"Oh no, he's taken already" she narrowed her eyes when she remembered what Paul had told us that evening -Jason was dating this ginger woman. "I can't like Mark cuz you love him -although he's oh my god incredibly amazing nowadays... so it's gotta be either Gary or Howard"
