"Megan." Liam sounded like he was trying to keep calm, but his rushed words gave him away, "We need to leave. The awards are gonna start at any minute. " I sigh and turn around. I hate it when he rushes me. "Li, babe, see the dress laying on the bed. I just need to slip it on, put on some earrings, and we can go." "You kind of need to hurry. We had to leave ten minutes ago, and they're gonna start without us." His voice raises just a bit. "I'm going as fast as I can! I can't go in my underwear!" Now, I was upset. He moves out of the doorway, and starts walking down the hall, "Sometimes you're so hard to deal with!" His yells sending echoes through the building. "I give up. You can go without me." I drop my robe to the floor and instead of putting on the dress I turn back towards the closet and throw on my pajamas, "Good luck. I hope you win."
His face was somewhere between hurt and shock as I grab my purse and sprint out the door and into my car.
I had to drive. I didn't know where, but I just had to drive. And apperantly drive illegally. I was going 80 in a 45 zone, and I hadn't bothered putting on my seat belt through all my frustration.
My phone had begun vibrating, and if I had thought about it, I probably wouldn't have even looked down, but I didn't. So, the second I picked it up. I had sealed my fate.
I barely had time to read the first six words. I had already merged into the wrong lane, and a semi was coming my way.
I didn't even have time to scream, and the message was still fresh on my screen.
Megan, I'm so sorry. Please come home. I don't plan on going tonight. Not without you. ~Liam. <3
