My brothers best friend

Chapter 5

When I woke up I was shocked he was still in my bed,

He woke up as I did. We heard knocking on my door and I shouted groggily "go awake". It was of course out of habit but when Liam got up he kissed my forehead good morning and I shooed him off to go get ready for the day before he noticed my coughing.

I was sick. I got sick when I had a lit of stress and negativity in my life and lately it's been over whelming.

I didn't even get ready I went back to sleep and wasn't woken up until 11:45. My eyes widened but I shrugged. I was extremely late to school but as I got ready for the day I realized I didn't want to stay home.

I refused to be in the same room as Dan and mostly everyone but when I waked into school I found out it was 5th period and I had all my favorite classes from here on. Math, History, Music where since I had such a high average in the class she'd just let me sit in her office with a few it her kids and okay any instrument of our choice. Mine was guitar. And my 8th period was English where we pretty much were just allowed to read what ever we chose so it was an easy way to end the day.

The day flew by since Amanda had no clue I was in school today and when I walked out of school to head home they were about to walk up to me when I saw Liam, Niall, and Harry all standing at Niall's range rover.

But before they could do anything I was surrounded by Amanda's gang and slapped on the back of my head.

I spun around and saw it Amanda herself staring at me.

"Hey Kendel I found her for you" she shouted and my eyes popped out of my skull.

He stood behind Amanda looking down at me as I held down on the ground.

"Just me and you now bitch" he laughed but I heard a growl behind us.

"Got room for three more" I heard Liam shout and the girls parted ways for them to be seen.

They looked so bad ass standing there and they were pretty damn intimidating. Well mostly Liam.

Kendel yanked me up to my feet and Liam's face was quickly growing more furious.

"Touch a hair on her pretty head and your a dead man. Your as good as dead" he said as Niall and Harry held Liam back.

But Kendel smacked me in the back of my hair and that's when the lads let go. Liam stormed up to Kendel and punched him straight in his face. His nose was gushing blood as he back away.

Liam was furious and was determined to keep me safe. "Any one else" he said and everyone shook their heads.

"I find a scratch on her skin because of any of you you'll be in a grave faster then you can say Shit" he said and everyone nodded.

But when he turned to me he instantly softened. And to my surprise I wasn't scared of him.

He helped me up and asked me if I was alright. I told him I was fine and kissed my cheek. I blushed but as he started walking away the girls took notice to who they were. Or at least made it obvious.

"You just got punched by Liam Payne" shouted Amanda and she looked so happy.

They gave me shotgun and I sat next to Liam as he drove.

"Thanks" I said and he smiled at me.

"It's our job what can we say" he said and that's when Niall and Harry voiced their opinions.

"Your our bæ and our bæ only gets the highest respect" Harry said and I rolled my eyes.

"You don't think we are serious. Oh love I swear if you weren't there Liam would've been all gorilla on that dick" Niall said and I looked at Liam.

The burning in my chest got hotter now as we made eye contact but when he looked back at the road I looked out the window.

I felt guilty I involved Liam into my drama. I mean I get my bachelors degree in business in economics in a little less then a month and then I'm done.

We got to the car and I didn't realize it but I was lightly drumming a beat on my knees to a song I'd written.

They must've liked it because I had all their attention but yet I didn't even have my own.

We got to my house and I walked up to my room and laid in my bed. And within 10 minutes I was out like a light.

~~~~~~~~

It was midnight and I'd just waken up from my 3 hour nap and it was 9 o'clock at night. I was a bit shaken from the nightmare I had and I did the thing I always did.

I slide into my sweats and a crop top. My sneakers were comfortable and I let my hair stand in a high pony tail.

I managed to sneak out the front door and go for a mile run but as I found myself afraid to go back to sleep I stayed up working on my music project.

But fell asleep before I could clean up.

~~~~~~~~

I woke up from my usual nightmare slowly as my head was killing me I noticed two things.

One I was still in my running cloths from last night and two I was having trouble breathing again.

The wheezes weren't loud but still audible.

I stood up and worked on controlling my breathing as I looked down at where my hands were on the couch. My notebook was under it and I looked at what I'd written last night.

I walked into the kitchen and went to the fridge. I grabbed the orange juice and pour myself a glass.

I sat down on the counter and as I read the pages I fixed my hair.

It was understatement to say I did feel good. My stomach was in knots and my eyes heavy. But I couldn't close them and every time I though about eating I felt sick.

People walked in as I struggled to read the words.

The paper was close up to my face as I tried to read the words but I couldn't.

"Olivia you alright there" I heard Dan, my new step dad ask.

I really liked him. He was much better to my mom then Tony and Mark had been.

"Yep" I said and he nodded even though he didn't look convinced. But he left it alone as he grabbed two plates of the pancakes I'd quickly whipped together.

My chest had that familiar burning feeling as I watched him carefully made my mother a platter of breakfast in bed. I smiled at him as he walked out of the room and up the stairs.

I was happy knowing she finally was being treated the right way. Her other marriages ended up with her giving them all she had and getting nothing in return except a divorce and more kids without a man to help after Louis left for xfactor. I became the man of the house and i guess that bothered everyone.
