Friendship, Love And Hate

Chapter 5 <Perfect for him>

It was already 5 p.m. and I was fricking out on what to wear. In movies when this happens a girl would call her best friends and they would help her pick out the perfect outfit, but I didn't tell my friends about me and Liam going out, and honestly I didn't want to because that would lead to too much questions and possible drama.

Why drama? Well just because if any girl in school knew what I'm doing tonight she would not be happy because Liam was loved at school. He was this golden boy. He was good looking and he was smart and funny, he was football team captain, what else do I need to say? He was this dream boy that every girl wanted, well not every but you get what I mean.

I tried to not freak out about this so I just picked out floral skater dress pared with jean jacket and white sneakers. I did my hair in high ponytail and I did my makeup which I usually don't do. I wanted to look good for him. I wanted for him to like me just as much as I like him. I wanted to be perfect for him. And I will do whatever it takes for him to like me.

My dad didn't question much on where I was going, he wasn't very strict parent, especially to me. I was always aloud to do whatever because he trusted me. He is more strict with Cameron though, but its because he often gets into trouble. He's in his reckless teen phase, and trying to prove that rules don't apply to him.

It was 6.45 pm and I was ready to go. I just hope this is what I expected it to be. Who would have thought that stupid crush could actually lead to date, I didn't know if it was date but I didn't know what else to call it.

I walked in the restaurant and then walked around looking for Liam. And suddenly I saw him, like a dream he was sitting with his elbows on the table, his golden locks looked even more shiny it that was even possible.

I slowly walked to him, and I saw another group of people sitting down. it was Max with his friends. I just hope they don't ruin anything. So I fastened my pace to faster get to Liam so if they notice me that they see I'm busy.

I stop at Liam's table "hey" I say quietly and smiling probably like a idiot.

He looked up at me and smiled "hi." He scratched the back of his neck. "You look great. Please sit down" he gestured to seat opposite him. I looked great so I must be doing something right.

"I didn't know if you like chocolate but I got you chocolate milkshake. Is that okay?" He asked. Why was is that every little thing he did made him even more perfect that he already was.

"Yea. It's perfect" I said to him. But I was still so fucking tense, I couldn't get myself to relax, it felt like I was stiff, geez I just hope he doesn't notice it. Or point it out.

We weren't really talking. Maybe he was just as nervous as I was. But I either didn't know what to talk about.
"I like this place" I say finally stopping the never ending silence.

"Yea its nice" he said without emotions, but something seemed off with him. He was usually more talkative, at least with his other friends. Did I do something? Maybe he just realized that he didn't like me? Just fuck my life already.

Then Finally Liam spoke. "You know. I don't really have much time tonight, but I just really wanted to be alone with you" he said but hesitated to look into my eyes. "I like you Victoria" he said and I think that my brain stopped working for a second. He said what now.?.

"Maybe even more than just like you. I wanted to tell you this for a long time now. I spend my whole summer thinking about it" he actually liked me.

"Liam I like you too" I finally spoke not being able to hold it in.

He looked at me but not with the expression I hoped, he's eyes seemed empty with no specific emotion. I wanted him to be happy that we liked each other, but he didn't seem to like it. Was my brain just messing with me?
