I just wanna tell you something ___________
Liam's POV
"When are you coming back Liam? Not like I mind playing boss, but it's been nearly two weeks."
With a heavy sigh, I begin to drum on my steering wheel. Looking outside the window at the building in front of me, the slow build up of annoyance vanishes. Instead, I smile nodding to myself.
"I'll be back in a few days, alright? You're doing a great job by the way. I should make you C.O.O." Andy's chuckle is enough to tell me that for now, I'm off the hook.
For now, I can relax.
He sighs mix in with the sound of shuffling papers and a heavy door closing and locking. "Flattery gets you nowhere Payne. You've got until Friday."
"What are you, my mother?" I laugh. Out of the corner of my eye I see the revolving door in front of me contain someone in it. The smile on my face just gets larger. "Andy, I gotta go."
"I might as well be your mother you little shit. And why the hell have you been so ha-." Before he can go on with his tyrant rant, I quickly lock my phone and step out of the car.
She looks beautiful. She always does.
I can't explain what happened at Southend, but something did and we haven't been the same since.
I haven't been the same since.
This feels silly to admit but; I feel like a teenager again. Two weeks ago I had the most amazing night in a while, thanks to the woman standing in front of me. Since then, it's like we've spent every waking moment together. At first it was just for either one of us not to go absolute crazy. But now, now it's different.
I feel the same but different at the same time. I know she does too, it's written clear as day across her face. We've been happier, lighter and just more honest with ourselves.
I think it's time.
"Well, well, well. Look what the caught drug back." She giggles wrapping her arms around my midsection. I couldn't stop the beaming smile dancing across my face, even if I wanted to.
I just pray to god, as her head lays against my chest, that she can't hear or feel my rapid heartbeat.
Wrapping my arms around her short stature, I feel like they're a shield. As if I'm shielding her from all the bad in the world. Honestly, I love the feeling, I craved the feeling.
