The Happy Accident

Chapter 16

Liam's POV

'Hey, Nix-' I stopped dead in my tracks as my eyes met with Lenix and her friend's eyes.

Words I dare not say out loud ran through my mind as Libby's eyes grew wide in shock.

Maybe I should've texted her. I had forgotten that Lenix was having company.

Libby suddenly stood up and pointed at her friend.

'YOU KNOW LIAM PAYNE!' she yelled, making me even scared.

'Um... well... I,' Lenix stuttered over her words then threw me a pathetic look.

'Oops, wrong room,' I said quickly and closed the door quickly.

'YOU KNOW LIAM PAYNE?!' I hear Libby repeat.

'Of course not! You heard him. He said wrong room,' Lenix yelled back.

'But he just said Nix,' Libby stated.

'I thought my name was Lenix,' she said with a calm tone.

I was tempted to open the door and see what was going on. But Lenix was in enough trouble already.

'It is... but isn't Nix your nickname?'

'No. It's Nixxy smart one. Now shut up and drink you hot chocolate,' Lenix said.

I quickly ran down the stairs and hopped in my car and locked the doors. I can't believe I was that stupid! What was I going to tell Lenix anyway? Why was I there again? I had completely forgotten when I saw Libby sitting there wide eyed.

My phone sang a song called Let Her Go. I knew it was Lenix.

Lenix: What the feck, Leeyum!

Me: I am so sorry! I forgot she was visiting.

Lenix: How can you forget when you just dropped me off not too long ago?

Me: Well I've had a lot on my mind. I'm so sorry! Does she believe you?

Lenix: Yes. She said she's gonna look for you for some odd reason. Where ya at?

Me: Sitting in my car outside the hotel. Is she around?

Lenix: She went to the bathroom. Ooh here she comes!

I didn't text back. When I looked up I saw Libby step out of Lenix's room.

I rolled my window down slightly to hear.

'I'll text you later! I don't want my LiLi getting too far ahead,' Libby said running down the stairs and hopping in her car.

Lenix stared after her and shook her head. She soon saw my car and skipped down the stairs.

'That was close,' she said leaning in the window, which I rolled down.

'I'll say. I'm so sorry again,' I apologized.

'It's fine. Now I'll have think up a good story when she actually meets you guys,' she sighed and stood up straight.

'I'll come up with the story, love. Don't worry,' I smiled.

'Good. Cause you owe me,' she squinted and giggled a little.

Indeed I did.
