Desires

Chapter 2

"I actually ran into Liam on the way back from the candy counter. He was here with what's her name. You know, that girl he's been seeing. He gave me a hug." I must have sounded nervous. He looked a little suspicious.

"You mean Danielle?" He c****d an eye brow and smiled a little. "Well that's good. I'm glad they are working things out. I heard them fighting on the phone last night and I really thought they had broken up..."

I sighed with relief.

After the movie had finished, we walked to his car, hand in hand. "I had fun tonight babe. Thanks for bringing me again!" I smiled up at him as he helped me into his car. I got into my seat and buckled up as he shut my door and ran to the driver's seat. After a few minutes, we were at my flat. He walked me to the door and gave me a kiss goodnight.

"I'll text you when I get home princess." He kissed my cheek again and I could feel my cheeks turn warm.

"Michael... I love you..." I looked up at him. I've never said it to him before. Until now.

"I love you too Jenna. More than you know. I've got to go babe. I'll call you tomorrow." With that, he was down my front steps and in his car. He beeped as he pulled out and I went inside.

I decided that a nice bubble bath with a facial mask would be a good choice! I started to run the water and threw in extra bubbles. It was hot in my flat, so I opened the window in my bathroom. I pulled my hair up and was just about to put on my face mask when I heard the opening cords to More Than This by One Direction. Just then I hear Liam begin to sing...

"I'm broken, Do you hear me?

I'm blinded cause you are everything I see.

I'm dancing, alone.

I'm praying that your heart will just turn around."

He continued to sing, and I just watched out my window in amazement. This sort of thing only happens in movies and books. I can't believe that it was happening to me!

"When he opens his arms and hold you close tonight,

It just won't feel right

Cause I can love you more than this."

When he finished, he looked up at me with hopeful eyes. I know he wants me to leave Michael, but I just can’t.

"Liam.... What are you doing here?" I called out.

"Confessing my love for my best mate's girl, hoping she'll be my princess. He isn't right for you Jenna. I loved you first. I was so mad at Michael when he asked you out." He looked at the ground. It looked like he was wiping away tears from his face, but I couldn’t quite tell. "But I need to face the fact that I will never have a chance with you. I needed to confess my feelings before I lost my nerve." He looked back up at me with hopeful eyes. "Baby, I loved you first."

"Liam..." I sighed heavily. This wasn't real. It only happens in books and cheesy love movies. "You should go. I love Michael. You need to respect that." I shut the window and turned around. Michael was standing there. He had an arm held behind his back.

"You forgot your purse babe. And I brought you flowers. Pink and white carnations, your favorite." He handed me my flowers and kissed my lips softly.

"I love you, Princess."

"I love you too Niall."

I bit my lip.
