Mistakes (Liam Payne)

Chapter Ten: Hiding the Obvious

Liam’s POV

“I’m tired!” Zayn yawned. We all agreed.

“I have to head home.” Lacey yawned looking at the clock.

“Let me drive you. It’s late.” Niall told her. She shook her head.

“No I have my own car. I’ll be fine.” She said and kissed his cheek. Niall sighed and stood up. Lacey gave us all hugs good bye before Niall walked her out to her car.

“Uhh… where am I going to sleep? I only counted five bedrooms.” Sierra asked and scratched the back of her head.

“There’s a couch in my room. I’ll sleep on that and you can sleep in my bed.” I told her and she gave me a thankful smile.

“Keep it in your pants, Liam!” Harry yelled. I turned and glared at him. I picked up a pillow and chucked it at him.

“Like you should be talking!” I called after him as he ran up the stairs.

“Don’t worry about it. I know he’s just messing” Sierra whispered. I smiled and had to refrain myself from kissing her.

“Let’s go.” I said and grabbed wrist pulling her behind me. She smiled and tugged her arm away from me gently.

“I can walk by myself.” She laughed lightly.

We walked into my room and Sierra started to dig through her bag.

“I’m just going to go change.” She mumbled and walked out of the room and headed into the bathroom. I changed quickly into a pair of sweat pants, not putting a shirt on; I normally don’t sleep with one on. I grabbed a pillow and put it over on the couch for me. I heard the door click open and then shut quickly. I looked over to see Sierra throwing the clothes she changed out of into a bag. She was wearing black baggy t-shirt and some shorts. I smiled at her.

“Liam, put a shirt on.” She whined and walked past me.

“You know I never sleep with one.” I told her and shrugged my shoulders. I walked up behind her and she turned around quickly, her face only inches away from mine. I smiled at the blush that appeared on her face.

“But now…” she froze, then blinked quickly, breaking eye contact.

“But now what?” I asked and rubbed my hand along her arm slowly.

“…I-It’s different.” She stuttered.

“Why? Because now, I’m famous, and older, and hotter, and just so damn irresistible?” I winked at her.

“No, now you’re ego is crushing me.” She smiled playfully. I chuckled and leaned in, kissing her gently. She kissed me back, the sarcastic smile still on her lips. I pulled her up against me and pulled away looking down at her.

“I’m sorry we lost contact for so long.” I whispered to her.

“We went through this already. We both had busy lives. What’s important is you’re here now, with me.” She laughed quietly, but I knew she was serious. I smiled again. I couldn’t help myself

“You’re amazing.” I told her and kissed her forehead. She smiled.

“You’re absolutely, ten times more fantistcal, and amazing than I am.” She laughed. I laughed as well, my heart feeling light at the sound of her laugh and seeing the smile on her face.

“Impossible.” I whispered in her ear and kissed her nose. I walked over to my couch and sat down. Sierra stood there and looked at me.

“What?” I asked looking up at her.
