I spend the next hour taking a shower and unpacking some of the things in my trunk because we're staying for three nights. When the clock strikes half past seven, I gently knock on Liam's door.
"Coming!" I hear him say from the other side.
A shirtless Liam opens the door for me, wearing only a pair of sweatpants.
"Come in" he invites me running barefoot back to where the bed is; "I'll call you tomorrow night, okay?" he says to the computer screen lying on the mattress.
"Okay" I can hear Sophia answering, "Have fun"
"Sure babe, I love you. Sleep tight"
"Love you too" Sophia blows a kiss to the camera and then the screen turns black.
"So..." says Liam shutting the computer and turning to me; "What shall we order for dinner?"
Half an hour later, we're sitting on a sofa in Liam's bedroom and sharing a couple of pizzas. He makes me feel comfortable and we chat about different subjects as if we were old friends that hadn't seen each other in a long time.
"Do you think they'll let me surf tomorrow morning?" I ask.
"You like surfing?"
"Yes, although there are not very good waves where I live. But Miami is known for its beaches, isn't it? I would like to try"
"Would you mind if I go with you?"
I look at him. Why would he want to come with me? Apart from the obvious, which is he wants to go surfing. But, why with me?
"Okay" I answer.
"If you want to go alone, I can..." he says, visibly uncomfortable with my reaction.
"No!" I quickly correct myself, "It's just, I'm surprised by the request. I don't know why would you want to go with me"
"Because you seem like an incredible girl, I told you" he answers smiling; "And if we're going to spend the next two months together, I want to know you as soon as possible; so I don't treat you like a stranger"
I smile.
"Thank you" I answer.
"You're welcome. So you will accept my company?"
"Of course" I answer laughing, "but what about...?" I ask, worried about the fans who probably will be camping outside.
"We'll find a way to sneak out" Liam smiles cheekily.
"Okay. At what time?"
"Let's say seven o'clock? We can have breakfast and then go to the beach"
"Perfect"
I say good night to Liam and head to my bedroom.
After brushing my teeth and putting my pjs on, I lie on the bed. There's a static noise that doesn't let me sleep, but I can't find where it comes from. After ten minutes of hearing it, I suddenly realize what it is: screams.
I get up and head to the window, peeking through the curtains. I see hundreds of fans outside, holding signs and yelling the boys's names. I smile and go back to bed, trying to ignore the enthusiastic screams that come from the other side of the glass.
"Morning" Liam greets me at the corridor when I jump into him the next day.
"Morning" I answer rubbing my eyes.
