gotta be you; l.p {completed}

Chapter 27

Liam's POV:

She said those three words I've always kept in our promise. 'I love you.' But maybe she just said it by accident... Why was this so confusing to me right now?? I ran a hand through my hair in frustration and walked out Louis' bedroom door into the living room. "Hey Liam!" The boys said together once I walked in the room. "Hey." I said glumly and slouched back on the couch. "What's wrong with LiLi?" Niall asked curiously and say next to me whirl eating a turkey sandwich. "I don't want to talk about it." I said shaking my head. "Awww! C'mon mate! We're like brothers! You can tell us anything!!" Ozzie said pleading to tell them. "Yeah!!" Said Louis pouting at me. "You're right..." I grumbled and explained to them the entire situation and how I still had feelings for Brooklyn. "I KNEW IT!!!" Harry exclaimed smiling with one fist punched up in the air. "It was utterly and completely obvious though anyways Liam." Said Zayn. "But I'm just confused and stressed out right now guys.... I've never cared about someone so much before though... And I- I just don't know what to do or say..... I'm stuck." I said defeatedly. "Don't worry mate! We'll help you with Brooklyn!" Said Niall patting my shoulder and smiling. "Thanks you guys are the best." I said smiling back at all of them. I exhaled slowly and washed out all of the pounding thoughts that were in my head and paid attention to the movie they were all watching. I'm so glad to have these boys in my life.

Alex's POV:

"Hey Brooklyn! Can you help me make this cake? I'm not the best cook in the world so yeah?" I asked giggling. "Sure." She said smiling. When we were up in that tree the first day we met I remember she told me how much she absolutely loved baking. And I loved eating so we always got along well that way. "Okay so first we add the batter in the pan." She said while following the instruction. "Okay now we stuck it in the oven for an hour and see how it turns out I guess." She said putting her hands on her hips proudly completing her work. "Hey what's on your mind?" I asked her curiously noticing how she stayed silent for a while and stared intently at the ground. "Oh it's nothing." She said trying to brush off the subject but I wasn't gonna let her slip away that easy. "Oh c'mon Brooklyn we've been best friends for 4 freaking years and you can't tell me this one itty bitty secret?" I asked her pleadingly. "Fine." She said giving in and explained to me how she was still in love with Liam but just doesn't know how to tell him and is afraid if he'll hate her and make things awkward between them if she tells him. And she also told me about their phone conversation a few minutes ago. "Brooklyn, I wouldn't be nervous or scared at all. I mean it's beyond OBVIOUS that he still loves you too! He kept his promise! Have you seen the way he looks at you and how you guys almost kissed the first night!! And how he always had this giant idiotic smile plastered on his face whenever he sees you?!" I say happily. She shakes her head nonchalantly. "Wow you are oblivious. Cass is right." I said laughing. "Was I not?" Cass said interrupting me and Brooklyn's conversation by walking into the room. "How much did you h-hear?" Brooklyn asked stuttering probably nervous still. "All of it. But don't worry Alex and I won't tell anyone especially Liam and the boys. Right Alex?" Cass asked me. "Right." I said nodding my head truthfully. "Good." Brooklyn said letting out a deep sigh. "But how are we going to find out if he likes me or not?" Brooklyn asked curiously and pulled out the cake once the timer went off. "Oh don't worry. I've got a plan." I said evilly. "Oh no." Cass and Brooklyn said in sync. "Oh yeah." I said smiling. My well thought out plan had to work for sure!! This was gonna be fun.
