Recap:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I stared so deeply into Liam's eyes, I didn't see the hole that my pump perfectly fit into.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I braced myself for impact. I closed my eyes, put out my arms, and waited for the concrete to hit my face. But it didn't. Instead, a pair of strong arms swooped to my rescue.
I was now face to face with Liam. I was breathing hard, trying to catch my breath.
"Are you alright?"
"I am now."
We were both silent for a while, staring into each other's eyes. His eyes glanced down only once to look at my lips. I nodded. A silent question had been answered. He leaned into my lips and we kissed. I knew he was smiling into it, and out of it.
"I've beeen wanting to do that all day," I admitted.
"Me too. Hey! I never did learn what your name was."
"Willa,"
"What a brilliant name."
"So, how about that coffee?"
"Yes, let's do that."
So, Liam got a plain coffee just to try it. I got a peppermint mocha. It turned out he loved it. We exchanged numbers, and he gave me tickets and backstage passes to the next One Direction concert for me and all my BFFs and a kiss good night.
