Mistakes (Liam Payne)

Chapter Four: Too Many Questions

Sierra’s POV

“They never came up last night.” I heard a faint voice. I sighed, not wanting to open my eyes. I was so comfortable; I just wanted to sleep all day.

“Well where are they?” I heard someone else ask.

“I found them!” Someone called from the room. I felt someone shift beside me. I groaned and opened my eyes to see that I was lying on my couch, with my head on Liam’s chest. It took me a second to remember what happened last night. I just rolled over and closed my eyes again.

“Sierra! Liam!” I heard someone call and hit me in the head with a pillow.

“Go away!” I said and shooed them away with my hand, not opening my eyes.

“Aww, they look cute.” I heard Lacey’s voice.

“Liam! Get up!” It sounded like Zayn.

“Yeah, you know you slept too late when Zayn is up before you.” I heard Niall laugh and then a smack. I’m guessing Zayn hit him. I felt Liam stir from under me. I groaned and picked my head up, turning to look at him.

“Come on get up so they leave us alone.” He smiled slightly at me. I nodded and yawned. I looked around the room to see all four boys and Lacey standing there staring at us. I looked at the clock. 11:30. I looked down and realized that I had fallen asleep smushed between Liam and the back of the couch with my head on him and his arm around my shoulder. I blushed as I realized how they had all found us; it was pretty embarrassing.

“What’s for breakfast?” Niall asked as I stood up.

“Umm? Cereal? I don’t want to make anything.” I groaned and walked into the kitchen and over to the cupboard. I opened it and pulled all the boxes of cereal out and placed them on the counter with a bunch of bowls and spoons and I grabbed the milk from the refrigerator. Without even asking I immediately grabbed a cereal bar and tossed it to Liam, knowing that I would have to make special accommodations for him to eat the cereal, and I was honestly too lazy to do that.

“Thanks.” He chuckled, knowing that I wasn’t going to waste my energy so he could avoid using a spoon. He walked over and sat down at the table. I poured myself some cereal and milk and walked over to join him.

“So, what are we going to do today?” Harry asked.

“Umm… we can… go for a walk… somewhere.” I mumbled trying to think.

“Where?” Louis asked sounding excited.

“I don’t know, just around town. Will you be able to go out in public like that?” I asked them cautiously. I didn’t live in an overcrowded area, but they can still be noticed.

“Umm, we can try. We’ll just wear hats and what not.” Liam mumbled. I could tell he was making the effort to not let his fame change anything. We used to always walk together when we went on vacation. We would leave the hotel for hours on end, just walking around, talking, and enjoying ourselves.

“Woah, Daddy Direction is taking a risk?” Louis raised his voice higher in shock.

“Yes. This is our month off. I’m not spending it cooped up in the house.” He shot back.

“Well the town knows you’re all here from the party last night.” Lacey spoke up. Just as she spoke the doorbell rang. Damn Lacey was right. Didn’t think of that one.

“I got it. Just all of you stay here and be quiet.” I told them firmly.

“Yes ma’am.” They all answered together. I got up and walked to the door. I didn’t care that I was still wearing the same stuff from the party last night and my hair was a wreck. It was probably just girls looking for the boys.
