Worth the Payne

Chapter 5-Date Night

I woke up the next morning at 12. I rolled over to look at my phone as it had just buzzed but I rolled too quickly and I ran to the bathroom. God I cannot handle another 6 and a half months of morning sickness. I cleaned myself up and went back to my phone.

“Hey, be ready by 7 tonight. Dress warm and casually xx” Read the message from Liam.

I smiled sweetly to myself. I headed downstairs to make myself breakfast.
The day went very quickly. I really practically did nothing except watch Friends for the zillionth time. I looked over at the clock and saw it was 6. Liam would probably be here soon.

I turned off the TV and headed up to my room to get ready. I pulled out a pair of jeans. I slipped them on. They were a little tighter now. I sighed to myself. In another month or so I wouldn’t even fit into them. I walked over to the mirror wearing just my jeans and a bra and looked at my mirror. I didn’t have much of a bump yet. I stood there for another thirty seconds before walking back to my clothes to grab out a black singlet and a cream and black sweater, slipping them on before grabbing my pair of flats. I was just brushing my hair when I heard a knock on the door.

“Come in!” I shouted.

I heard the door shut and Liam’s voice call out my name. I walked down the hall grabbing my phone and keys on the way.

“Hey” I greeted Liam when I saw him standing in the lounge room.

“Hi, you look beautiful”

“Thank you Liam”

“Ready to go?” Liam asked, holding his hand out towards me.

I nodded and took his hand in mine. He lead me to his car, opening the door for me.

“Where are we going?” I asked once Liam had gotten into the car and put his seatbelt on.

“You’ll see”

“Liam?”

“Yes”

“When are we going to tell the boys about me being pregnant?”

“When do you want to tell them?”

“I don’t want to tell them until I’m passed the first trimester. That way I have less chance of miscarrying and I know it’s actually going to happen”

“Then we can do that”

We chatted the rest of the way before Liam pulled up into a big car park with a gigantic screen at the front. I looked around and noticed we weren’t the only car. There was about 20 others scattered around the car park. I heard Liam get out the car and head to the back of the car. I got out and followed him. He opened the boot of his range rover and revealed a mattress sitting in the back. How had I not noticed that before?

“Liam...what are you doing? Where are we?” I asked when he climbed into the boot and laid down on the mattress.

“Getting ready to watch a movie, what else would you do at a drive in?”

“Oh my god!! I remember these places now, I haven’t been to one in years” I exclaimed excited.

“Well what are you waiting for? Climb in” I smirked at him and climbed in. He pulled out popcorn, a blanket, drinks and...pretzels!

“Oh my god, how did you know? I’ve been craving these for a week!”

“I didn’t. I’ve been wanting them for like two weeks and I finally found them” Liam chuckled.

Soon the movie started and the opening credits for 22 Jump Street came on. When it finished the opening for If I Stay started.
I laughed and I cried all night. It was so good to just forget about everything and have a great time with Liam.

The ride home was amazing, we just sat and talked about everything that happened during the movie. Liam stopped at the front of my house and I couldn’t help but feel disappointed. This was such a great night I just don’t want it to end. Liam is my happy place. Liam got out of the car and came around to open the door for me. He helped me out of the car and led me to the door. We stood there at the door as I got my keys out.

“So...”

“So...”

“Thanks for tonight Liam, it was so much fun”

“Yeah it was, we should do it again sometime”

“mhmm”

“Well, go inside and I’ll be off”

“Well did you want to come in?”

“Believe me as much as I’d love to, I can’t. I have to go the studio tomorrow morning so I should be going home.”

“Oh, alright then. I’ll um text you”

I leaned up and gave Liam a kiss on the cheek and unlocked the door.

*Liam’s POV*

Kyla started walking inside. It was now or never. I grabbed her arm and pulled her back.

“Lia-”

I grabbed her face and smashed my lips into hers. She was a bit shocked but eventually moulded her lips into mine. After a few seconds, we pulled away. I kept my hands on her face and leaned my forehead against hers. She grabbed my hands and sighed.

“That was amazing Liam”

“Best thing ever” I agreed.

“I’ll call you tomorrow Kyla”

She walked inside and I walked to my car. I got in and just sat there. I held the wheel but hesitated. I looked back at the door and smiled like crazy. I had fallen for this girl and I am never going to regret it.
