friends.” I fill in for him with a smile. “What did you think that was?”
He shrugs. “I don’t know.”
“Are you alright now?” I ask gently.
He nods again before bowing his head to look at me through his lashes. “I’m fine but I do want to talk about what about what almost happened between us. I need to know what you want from me.”
“We forget that ever happened.” I answer simply.
His face falls as he closes his eyes as if he had been struck.
“From here we become friends and then see what happens. I’m in no position to jump into anything right now and from what Ben said I doubt you are ready for anything serious either.” I add.
With my words Jayce looks back up at me with hope filling his eyes.
It was an odd look considering the circumstances. “I can do that.”
Standing up I move directly in front of Jayce. “Can you do me one favor though?”
He nods as he gazes down at me. “Whatever you want, Sweetheart, just ask.”
“Can you help me keep Liam away? If he’s around I’ll lose this battle, I’ll give into his demands sooner or later.” I request.
Nodding Jayce grins. “I can do that for you.”
“Good, now we better get out of my room before Matt or Eric decides to come up here after us.” I laugh lightly as I grab his hand to lead him out of the room.
Chapter 10
Dear Diary,
I’m trying to move on so why can’t I leave you behind. You haunt my every moment. I wish I could talk to you so I would know if I was doing the right thing…
The next morning I wake again feeling rested and ready for the day ahead.
After dinner last night with Eric, Matt, Ben, and Jayce I had come up with a new plan and I now had two new friends to watch my back.
I was determined that today was going to be a better day.
Rolling out of bed I rush into my shower.
After scrubbing my hair and body I let the water pour over my face and skin as I close my eyes and smile.
Once I’m done I shut the water off and wrap a towel around myself before moving out into my room to gather some clothes.
As soon as I’m out of the bathroom I freeze in place while pulling my towel closer to my body, suddenly feeling uncomfortable.
Liam was sitting on the edge of my bed, his eyes taking me in.
“What are you doing here?” I ask after a moment.
He doesn’t answer me so I repeat myself. “What are you doing here, Liam?”
Still he doesn’t answer me.
Growling in frustration I turn my back to him and begin searching through my drawers to find some clothes for the day.
When I turn back around I growl out again in frustration.
He hadn’t even moved.
Holding up my towel with one hand I point towards the window. “Leave, now, Liam.”
He shakes his head and opens his mouth to reply but stops when the door begins to open and Jayce walks in ready to punch someone.
Eric and Matt rush into the room behind him.
“Get the hell out of her room, Man.” Jayce demands as he steps in between me and Liam.
Liam shakes his head roughly as he stands up. “I’m not leaving until she talks to me.”
“You had your chance to talk to me, Liam.” I chime in as I lean around Jayce.
“No, I was going to talk to you before this idiot barged into your room.” Liam clips out before he continues. “Who is this guy anyway and why the hell is he barging in here?”
“I’m her boyfriend.” Jayce answers.
My eyes swing over to Eric and Matt.
Eric appeared to want to kill both of the boys in my room. With a shake of my head he backs down but continues his glare towards Liam.
Liam scoffs as he looks towards me for my answer. “He can’t be serious. You just met this guy, Eve.”
“Just leave, Liam.” I bite out.
I was over him and I wanted him out of my room and my life for good.
Studying me for a moment he bows his head and nods. “I get it.”
With those simple words he walks towards the door, pushing his way past Eric and Matt before leaving.
