Chapter 6

I awoke to a distant beeping sound. Damn alarm clock. I groaned and reached my arm out to smack it. A sharp pain alerted me that there was something in my arm.

The beeping sound became more rapid and I struggled to pry open my eyes. When I finally did succeed everything was blurry, but I defiantly wasn't in my room anymore.

"Are you awake?" I heard a muffled voice say and I gasped.

"Where am I" I asked, my voice sounding raspy even to my own ears. My vision cleared as a cup was thrust into my hands. Water splashed up and hit my arms and I yelped in surprise.

"Oh sorry! Sorry! God I'm such a cults. I'm really super sorry. Are you ok?" A woman's voice repeated over and over. I blinked up at her and had to hold in the gasp that wanted to escape.

She was gorgeous. I'm not into girls but I had to admit she was incredibly pretty. Her fiery red hair stood out against her pale skin and her eyes blazed green. Her face was dotted with the occasional freckle and the ever prominent laugh lines that my mother had.

"W-where am I?" I asked politely, my hands itching to draw her.

"Oh silly me! How could I forget. GAH!" She said quickly. "Your at my house dear. You fainted. My son found you and brought you back here. Do you feel okay? Drink that water" she said in what seemed like one breath.

"Who's your son" I asked in confusion.

"Oh Liam" she said and then seemed to realize something "oh shoot cakes! Liam!" She screamed running out of the room. She peaked back in and looked me in the eyes "DRINK THAT WATER MISSY!"

The water trembled in my shaky hands and I brought the blue plastic cup to my lips. I gulped down the entire thing before sighing and leaning against the headboard of what looked like a hospital bed. In fact, everything looked like I was in a hospital. Who has a room like this in their house?!

I heard heavy footsteps running closer and closer until the door of the room burst open, revealing my blue eyed boy gasping for breath. My heart rate instantly spiked ad to my embarrassment, the heart rate monitor felt the need to reveal my flustered state.

"Kiara" Liam breathed, not paying attention to the beeping. He rushed over to my bedside and all but jumped on me. He buried his face in my hair and wrapped his strong arms around my waist.

Get him off, get him off! He hurt Eric!

Damn it Kiara! PUSH. HIM. OFF!
But I didn't. I wrapped my arms around his warm torso and breathed in his earthy smell. After a few moments, I heard a gasp from behind Liam.

"Liam Elijah Heart! She is still hooked up to the IV! We do NOT lay on people in a hospital bed! I thought I raised you better then this" the redheaded woman said and I lifted my face from it's comfortable position on his shoulder.

Liam turned and scowled at his mother before reluctantly getting off the bed. My arms held on to him for as long as possible, gripped him tighter as he began to pull away. Liam frowned down at me and then lit up, smirking at his mother. He picked me up by my waist making me gasp in surprise and quickly got into bed behind me, so that my back was pressed firmly against his chest. He wrapped his arms back around my waist and pulled me to lean against him. I didn't complain.

"Oh you smart-ass" his mother chuckled at him. He rested his chin on my shoulder and nuzzled his nose on my chin.

"Better then being a dumb-ass" he chuckled back "mother this is Kiara. Kiara this is my mother."

"You can call me Molly if you'd like" she said reaching forward to grab my hand. The door busty open again and I gasped, jumping in Liam's grasp as it tightened around me.

"She's awake!" Eric shouted from the doorway. I heard cheers from behind him and I curiously leaned forward to see, only to be yanked back into Liam's chest.

Turns out I didn't need to look for myself, because after Eric walked in, everyone else who was out there walked in too.

"Kiara" a black haired woman said to me. I nodded and tilted my head. Liam took advantage of this and buried his scratchy chin in my neck making me shiver. He flicked my neck with his tongue and I gasped as he smirked. Everyone else in the room seemed to chuckled with him.

"A- Liam" the same woman said again. He tensed slightly and I felt his gaze on me before he looked back down at my neck in fear.
I furrowed my eyebrows and raised my hand to his cheek where he smiled and tilted his face to press a
sweet kiss on my palm.

"Liam are you alright?" I asked my voice sounding raspy even to my own ears. Liam tensed and shuddered when I said his name, but I paid no attention to it. I coughed and cleared my throat as Molly refilled my water. She handed it to me and I thanked her before gulping down half the glass.
"So... Who are you guys?" I asked curiously. Everyone tensed and looked behind me. I furrowed my eyebrows and saw a panicked Liam before he smiled sweetly at me. He opened his mouth to answer...and...
