“So, you and Liam, huh?” Ali waggled her eyebrows at me. She was standing in my kitchen, leaning back against the counter. I blushed deeply as I handed her a cup of tea.
“What do you mean?” I asked nervously. She scoffed.
“Becca, I’m not blind. You LOVEEEE him!” she giggled, sipping her tea. “Why do you think Niall and I left you guys alone yesterday? We didn’t just want to make out! Well, okay. We did. But I also wanted to give you and LBomb a little alone time.” She winked.
“LBomb? Really?!” I rolled my eyes at the ridiculous nickname and looked down at my own cup of tea.
“You’re trying to change the topic!” Ali shot back in a sing-song voice. “Come on, Bec, Niall says he thinks there something going on with you two! Apparently, Liam talks about you quite a bit…” I couldn’t help myself. My head shot up. Ali grinned devilishly. “Gotcha!” I sighed, resigned.
“I don’t know what it is… he’s just so… I don’t even know how to describe it!” I said grinning like an idiot. Ali shook her head and smiled.
“Oh, boy. It’s worse than I thought!” she laughed.
“It’s not funny! I can’t stop thinking about him!!” I shook my head miserably. “I’m going crazy! I feel like such a creeper thinking about him so much!”
“Well, you kind of are creepy, but not because you think about him so much,” she chuckled, earning an unappreciative glare from me. “But, really, you’re not a creeper! I thought about Niall nonstop when we first met…” she smiles wistfully. I rested my head on her shoulder and groaned.
“What am I going to do?” I whined, “I’ve got no chance with him! He’s Liam the-sexy-puppy Payne!”
“So what? I’m dating Niall the-hungry-hottie Horan!” she laughed.
“Yeah but you’re so pretty and I’m so… not.” I grumbled surprising myself. I have these type of thoughts all the time but I’ve never really voiced them. Ali put her tea down and turned to face me.
“Becca, don’t ever say that again!” she admonished. “Seriously, you’re really pretty! And…” Ali said playfully hip bumping me, “ I think Liam would agree.” I smiled ruefully.
“Thanks Ali.”
“No problem, babe.” She hugged me. “Now go get ready, we’re going to Liam and Niall’s flat remember!” I smiled involuntarily at the mention of his name. I was in deep.
I hopped in the shower and blow dried my hair before straightening it and pulling it into a fishtail braid on the side of my head. I pulled on a jumper with a sparkly red heart on it- you know, for bling effect- with a pair of ripped skinnies. I put on my favorite bow necklace and my high-top grey converse. I grabbed my Roxy backpack which I filled with my favorite movies in case we needed something to do. (Becca’s outfit in the side bar.)
“Finally!” Ali exclaimed when I walked out of me room.
“Shut up!” I stuck my tongue out at her.
As we walked up to Niall and Liam’s door, I heard them talking from inside the flat. I put a finger up to my lips, signaling for Ali to be quiet. She rolled her eyes at me.
“…known her forever. I don’t know Niall, I just really like her!” My eyes widened. I felt like my heart might collapse inside my chest. Known her forever. It wasn’t me. I didn’t want to hear anymore, so I knocked on the door. If I couldn’t be with Liam, I might as well be friends with him. Yeah it hurts, but its best, right?

“Hey, Ali and I are going to go out for a bit.” Niall said, standing up from the couch and taking Ali’s hand. Ali winked at me knowingly.
“Okay! Have fun!” Liam and I said at the same time. Ok, the universe officially hated me. Why does being around him have to be so perfect?
“So what do you want to do?” I asked after Niall and Ali left. We were sitting on the couch together watching “Friends”.
“We could watch a movie? Toy Story?” He asked, hopefully. I giggled.
“Or… We could watch Lion King!” I said smiling at him.
“Or both!” We yelled at the same time, probably a little bit too excited. I smiled broadly as I put Lion King into the player. We both unashamedly sang along to all the songs and whispered the lines to ourselves. By the time we were halfway through Toy Story I was getting tired. I laid my head on his lap. I know, I know- this was only setting me up for worse heartache but at the moment I wasn’t thinking about that. Besides, I’ve been through plenty of hard things in my life- I can handle a bit of heart ache. Before long I drifted off to sleep, as Liam absent mindedly played with my hair that I had taken out of its braid.

I awoke to a warm pressure on my lips. I smiled and opened my eyes to see none other than Liam, making my grin grow even wider. He blushed deeply as I sat up. “I’m sorry, Becca. I shouldn’t have done that. I took advantage of you! That was wrong of me, I’m so sor-” I cut him off with a kiss.
“Don’t be sorry, Liam.” I smiled. It was me!! He was talking about me earlier! I almost exploded from happiness right there. I fit myself snuggly under his arm and he gently kissed the top of my head. Then, since it was Toy Story, we went back to the movie.
