Crush On A Careworker

'You need help' 😟

I open my eyes to see I was in someone's arms I look up to see Liam and I smile

I was freezing he'd just woken up and we were shivering lay together under the clouds but with the peeping sun beating down on us

Today would be a good day

'Morning' he says smiling

'Morning' I say back

'You alright?' He asks me

'Yeah..thank you for last night' I say

'It's no problem, you deserve to be happy' he says turning over to face me

'Come on let's go back inside before we catch our deaths' I say getting up and I head back inside

'Your up early Tracy' Mike says smiling

'Good morning to you too yeah I just fancied relaxing outside for a bit...anyway I better back to it' I say smiling heading upstairs

I help Liam up through the window he would've gotten into a lot of trouble if he came back in with me

He thanks me and I smile before leaving his room and heading to mine to get changed closing the door behind me

A COUPLE MINUTES LATER

I finish getting ready and turn round to see my door was open

What? I could have sworn I closed that? But it was ajar meaning any of the kids could have seen me getting dressed. Shit!

Thankfully most were in their rooms and some were downstairs so I breath a sigh of relief

I decide to wear Liams gift today I place the emerald necklace around my neck and it goes so well with my outfit! I'm guessing he knew these things pretty well

I brush through my hair attempting to make it look somewhat good and head downstairs

Liam was looking at something on his phone and the others were just chilling out Liam looks at his phone then me giving me a smile

I just shrugged it off it was probably nothing I head to the office to see if Mike still would let me have the day off

'You didn't ask and we're short staffed'

'I did! I wrote it in the book?' I say confused

He shows me the book and my names still there it also says I'm doing the night shift

'What?? Seths gonna go mad if I don't show up today! Please mike'

'Sorry Trace but he will understand'

He clearly didn't. I huff angrily and head out the door slamming it behind me before ringing Seth

'Seth I can't meet you today I'm sorry okay? Yes I was excited too! Well what do you suggest? Alright then I'll meet you in ten'

I check nobody's looking and run to the gates

'Where ya going?' I hear behind me

Liam.

I turn round going to spin him some lie but the truth comes tumbling out

'I'm going to meet Seth but you can't tell Mike or anyone else okay? Please Liam I'm trusting you I could lose my job. Mike said one more strike and I'm out..please cover for me?'

I was begging a kid. Surely I should be the superior one here? But with Liam it's different

He nods

'don't worry your secrets safe with me'

I give him a quick hug I knew I could trust him

'Thank you' I say sincerely giving him a quick peck on the cheek before running to go meet him
