My UnTruthful Lie ☠ Liam Payne

Chapter Twenty

One Week Later

Liam's P.O.V

This past week with Ashley, has been pure bliss. We have made our relationship official, after that wonderful night we spent together. She is all I think about, besides school. 

Otherwise, I've started going to the gym for three hours a day. It is really starting to pay off. I can feel the muscles in my body tightening and becoming more prominent. I think it would be better for me if I was stronger than the weak little nerd that I was. I can finally stand up for myself. Plus it's a bit embarrassing when your girlfriend is stronger than you. I love that word; Girlfriend. It just gives me this good vibe.

In the beginning, we didn't need labels, but when things got more passionate between us, we decided friends with benefits, wasn't going to be our thing, and if we both felt the same way about each other, then it was time. I'm happy with our decision, and she is too.

Ashley's P.O.V

"I am going to be honest, being in a committed relationship with Liam is great. I am just afraid. What if the Devil finds out about Liam and I, and targets him to get to me? How will I be able to live with myself if he hurts Liam? God, I don't even want those pictures in my mind." I tell Melody, she is visiting me today, giving me the latest gossip from up in heaven, kind of. It's more like me complaining about my personal problems to my dead sister, and making her listen when she should be telling me what the good and bad news is.

"Tell me what's going on with mom. I would visit her, but I am kinda busy with your problems."  Mel informed me in a non-rude way.

"She's good. I think she visited Dad today in prison." I say with a sad face.

"You know your going to have to tell her. I am surprised you have had this secret or so long, but you're going to have to tell her. You don't want her to continue this marriage do you?" She raised her eyebrows, in a way saying, 'You know you want them to get a divorce be honest with me, I could probably read your mind if I tried hard enough so just tell me.' 

"Yeah, in a way I do, but I want Mom to be happy."

"Ashley, if you told Mom what happened, she would leave him in a heartbeat, no matter how much she loved him, she would just be happy you're still alive after all you have been through."

"I'll think about it, now tell me whats going on up in the wonderful gates of Heaven." I put emphasis on the word, and moved my hands as to say how wonderful it is, Even though I have never been.

"Well, Ashley, how would you feel about dying?"

"I thought dying was what we were trying to prevent?" I question, my eyes growing at the thought of being dead. I used to want to die, but that was before things started getting better for me. Life is good for me right now, besides the part where the Devil tries to murder me on a daily basis, but I try to look past that.

"Well, what we are trying to do up in heaven is, see if we can create a way so that we can pass this curse onto someone else. Because the Devil has figured out who you are, and is after you, but if we pass it onto someone else, then the Devil would have no idea who the Liar is, and he will still think it is you. So, he would be after you, and try and kill you in more destructive ways, cause you more pain, kill you in a demonic way. Saying that, you would die, but everyone on Earth would still get to live." Damn I feel like Jesus right now. Dying to save the world from pain and destruction.

"I'd do anything if it meant Mom and Liam get to live."

 "Let's get this started then."

And so we did. Somehow, she brought a human up to heaven, and there we met with God, and discussed the issues. 

I am glad I picked the good side. Otherwise, everyone I love would be dead.

Liam's P.O.V

So I am back at the gym, doing my now daily routine. I am on one of those treadmills, running as fast as I can. Headphones in my ears playing the song Ashley sang in the car. I figured, I would get used to the kind of music she listens to, and I must say, It is quite groovy. When I figured I had had enough running, and I was sweaty, I made my way outside to the pool and jumped in, doing laps without stopping.

 Excercising seems to be a new stress reliever for me. I could get used to feeling stress free for awhile, because I must say, It feels great.

Super short chapter sorry, I know I haven't updated in awhile and I'm working on making the updates more frequent now.
