Trust Me To Hurt You

Chapter 24

Warning, extra fluff coming your way!

                "So does your foot still hurt?" The doctor asked. I shook my head. It's been almost five weeks since I had this cast. The doctor smiled at me slightly. "Well, by the middle of November, we'll be able to take it off you." He says.

                After giving me the check up, I walk out of the room and sit down on one of the waiting chairs. My phone buzzed in my pocket and I took it out.

                "Cody, hey, where are you? My check up's done." I say. "Sorry Allijah. I had an emergency here in the restaurant. I called Liam to pick you up though. He must be there by now-" He says. At that exact moment, Liam emerged from the entrance, and his blue eyes found my brown ones.

                "Ok." I said into the phone, hopefully not sounding as nervous as I thought and helped myself up.

                I've been avoiding Liam for the past week. Ok, not avoiding. I guess some space was the right term. After his confession, I hadn't really talked to him even in school, and he didn't really do anything about it. I guess he knew I needed time to wrap my head around the words he said, but I still can't bring myself to believe it. Not after what I saw in the school garden.

                I had my hopes high that time and I don't want to feel that way again. And it was that moment that made my car crash. Technically it didn't, but if I wasn't so heartbroken I wouldn't have left in a hurry.

                "Hey Al." He greets me with a small smile on his handsome face, and my stomach flipped slightly. God he always looks handsome whenever he smiles. "Hey Lee." I say back, mirroring the smile. He walks in sync with me towards the exit.

                "So do you believe me?" He asks suddenly. I clear my throat and tried focusing on my pace. I always get paranoid tripping when I'm on tiled floors. 

                "Like I said, you need to prove it Liam." I turn to him before we step out. "I mean, I don't really believe you ok? It's-it's hard to think it's true." 

                "Why?" He asks as he pushes the doors open for me. I sigh, making our way towards his car. "It's not that there's something wrong with you Lee. I just don't think we're compatible, and you and me sounds something taken out of a cliche romance novel-"

                That was the only thing I could get out without leaving him when he pressed his lips on mine. My knees wobbled slightly, my grip loosening on the crutches. My mind exploded when I opened my lips to respond and tasted him, and I would have fallen if his hand wasn't clutching the small of my back.

                When I finally had the strength to pull away, I tilted my head back, and Liam looked at me, his eyes darker than usual, staring at me with such soft eyes.

                I bit my lip, causing his eyes to look down on them, but I didn't do anything after. I just stood there, cheeks flaming. "Sorry." Liam says apologetically, although he did not look regretful. Nodding, I went into his car, crutches at the back, and he sat next to me in the drivers seat.

                "So do you want to pass by McDonalds? I'm starving." He says. I nod, since I haven't eaten breakfast. Ten minutes later, Liam finally came to the table with our order. My stomach grumbled loudly, and I groaned in my head as he snickered. "Shut up" I muttered. He grinned at me, and my stomach flipped backwards. I looked away and started eating my burger.

                I looked around, observing everyone eating. There was a woman playing with her baby, two twin sisters playing in the play area, a lonely guy eating by the window, and an elderly couple just sit down there.

                I sighed, getting bored now. I looked down at my burger, and looked up at Liam. His eyes were distant, he was looking at the table. I took this advantage to stare at him. God he was beautiful. He really was. Maybe I should go out with him,

                I mean, he likes me right? So why not give it a chance. I really like him, so why do I have to make things complicated.

                I opened my mouth to ask him, but decided last minute not to. He looked up at the same time, and I took a bite out of my burger so it would look like I was just gonna eat.

                His phone vibrated, and he took it out. "Hey it's your bro." He informs me.

                "Oh yeah...we're just here at McDonalds...oh sure, I'll ask her." He puts down the phone and turns to me "You wanna have dinner at my place?" I blush, feeling quite flattered. He gives me a weird look "Not like that. Cody's gonna be out tonight."

                I facepalmed myself internally. Oh my god get a grip Al! "Yeah, no prob." I finished the rest of my burger, cringing at my weirdness. It's the fact that he likes me and I like him makes me all nervous.

                "You alright? You seem a bit...I dunno, anxious."

                I drank my coke to wash down my burger. I shrug "I don't know what you're talking about." I say as I tried not to look into his eyes.

                I really have to stop acting like this. After all, we're having dinner tonight.
