Together We Are Stronger

Chap. 12

Amy's POV:

        "Liam kissed me."

        Those words kept running through my mind over and over again. I should have known that he liked Karma more than a friend. I didn't even know how to process what I had just been told. All I was able to do is ask, "What?"

        I let go of her and backed away. Did she kiss him back? Did something more happen? My eyes were glued on her and I finally saw just how red and puffy her eyes were. She must have been here for a long time. She looked at me, as if she didn't know what to say. Like she was afraid to speak. So, I spoke.

        "What are you talking about Karma?"

        "I-I-I... W-e-e-e were at my house a-a-a-n-n-d he kissed me," she sobbed.

        "Tell me exactly what happened Karma," I said, trying to not sound hurt or upset. Because truth be told, I was mad about Liam kissing her. What the heck had he been thinking!?!

        She explained everything, even through her tears and sobs. After she was done telling me about him unexpectedly kissing her after they had finished their porject, I remained quiet. I was trying to put pieces of the puzzle together. If she had pushed him away as soon as his lips landed on her, then why was she here crying her heart out? If he had been the one to steal a kiss from her but found himself being pushed away at an instint, then why was she crying? Did she think I'd be furious at her for something that Liam did?

        "Karms, if that's all that happened, then why are you here... So broken. Don't tell me you thought I'd be mad at you for something that jerk did?"

        She wiped some tears away, but more kept coming. "I feel... I feel so guilty and I don't want you to be disappointed in me or for you to hate me."

        I walked over to her, grabing her hands in mine, and looking deep into her eyes. "You listen here beautiful, I could never hate you. I love you too much. It's not your fault that he tried to steal a kiss from you. At least you showed him that you don't like him in that way by shoving him away as soon as his lips landed on yours. So, stop feeling guilty and crying because it really does hurt me when I see you like this. Now, what do you say we head back to school?"

        She gave me a weak smile, "I love you, you know that right?"

        I give her a nod and am about to give her a peck on the lips when I hear a voice... That voice.

        "Karma?"

        My blood is boiling.

        I turn to see that it is indeed Liam who has arrived. How in the fucking world does he know about this place? Not a lot of people do and besides, he's new, so how would he have known? I don't know what comes over me, but before I know it, I am in front of him. I can't tell if he's worried or afraid, all I know is that his face comes in contact with my fist. Well, maybe my fist came into contact with his face, but either way, it freaking felt great!
