Chapter 158_ Little angel
Amelia threw a towel at Liam who was shivering from cold..
“I will get you a new set of clothes..” she said briefly and was about to leave the room..
“You should have left me out there if you only pitied me… I don’t need your pity Amelia.. all I need is for you to accept my sincere apologies”
Amelia faced him once more “Do you think by apologizing to me everything will go back as it used to be?…”
Liam took a step forward with the help of the crotches..”Tell me whatever needs to be done and I will make sure I do it!”
Amelia rolled her eyes, he still doesn’t get what this was all about..
“You won’t understand any of it” she said simply and stomped her way to the door, she frowned as it didn’t open at the first pull.. she tried once more but it was still the same… stuck!
“Mum… Aidan… anybody there?! this door is jammed!” Amelia screamed out, to her surprise she heard a knock on her door..
“Don’t bother shouting mummy… I locked the door and the key is with me.. until the both of you make up and decide to be friends only then can the door be opened…. have fun!” Aidan said with a giggle..
Liam chuckled holding back his laughter, on hearing his chuckle she snapped her gaze back to him..
“You find this funny? your son is just like you! he does whatever he wants! do you realize that your clothes are still dripping.. you can fall Ill and you find this amusing?”
Liam had the sudden urge to pick Aidan up and send small kisses on his cute cheeks…
“He was with you all these years and he still has my nature…”
Amelia turned back walking to the wardrobe present in the room…
She searched through it and her eyes caught out a pink bath robe, a sinister laughter adorned on her lips as she stared at the bathrobe and couldn’t help but imagine the look on his face when she shows him this!…
“Here! this is the only thing that can fit you”
Liam stared at the bathrobe then to her straight face, was she doing this intentionally just to punish him?…
“it will be a little bit too short for me! and it’s pink in color” Liam concluded in horror, he can’t picture himself in something like that, he would look weird in it..
“Well what other choices do you have? the door is locked and the rain won’t stop anytime soon or else you are willing to die from cold” Amelia placed it on the bed and stood in front of him..
Her hands went to his shirt buttons, pulling them off slowly until his chest came in view… she looked away from it.. since her mind was now focused on naughty thoughts…
She disliked the fact that her heart still beats weirdly whenever he was around her.
Liam continued watching her reactions as she fondled with the buttons on his shirt..
He knew by her reactions that she still had something for him..
“Why are you so scared to admit it?”
“Huh?” she blurted out when she heard him speak so suddenly…
Liam lifted her face with a finger under her chin “Look deep down into my eyes and tell me that you hate me”
Amelia blinked her eyes, his finger alone that was under her chin was doing some weird things in her body..
She snapped out of his charm.. she couldn’t loose her guard now.. Liam has to go through what she went through all those years that they were apart…
Amelia collected his crotches and placed it carefully on the floor…
“You need to change into this before you get a….
Liam sneezed out cutting her speech off, he rubbed his nose gently and nodded to her words..
Amelia supported him Into the bathroom to change his clothes…
She came out leaving him alone to his privacy, she touched her chest, her heart has been beating faster than normal ever since he stepped into her room…
.
Louisa had the urge to laugh out loud at Dylan’s face, she knew he hated whatever he was wearing but there was no other choice than for him to wear her pyjamas… even though it was a little bit tight for him..
Dylan pulled the arm of the Pj that was glued to his body like a second skin..
The worst of it all, it was purple in color only he knew how much he despised flashy colors like this..
“Are you sure there isn’t anything else other than this?”
Louisa closed her novel and faced him with a bored look.. “You could have brought an extra set of clothes if you wanted to get soaked under the rain… I didn’t ask you to stay under the rain!”
“But I had to.. because I still want you”
Louisa went loss for words, she glanced briefly at him.. “You could have talked things out with me that morning before you left so suddenly… you have no idea of how stupid I felt to have trusted someone like you… I hated every single day thinking that I was the one at fault”
Dylan’s lips parted as a sigh escaped his lips, how was he supposed to face her after what he did? he was the one who persuaded her to have a drink that day..
Unfortunately for the both of them, they were both drunk to a stupor..
“I didn’t want to see your hatred towards me… there was only one option that came to my mind as of then..” Dylan explained..
Louisa looked out of the closed window, watching small drops of water sliding down the glass nonchalantly….
“The truth is.. you have always been a coward Dylan.. instead of tackling your problems head on.. you run away and leave everything behind.. the problem you left behind won’t solve itself.. it will only get worse!”
Dylan swallowed hard as he digested her words, so does she hate him now? hasn’t she realized her feelings for him yet?.
“I’m a coward and I admit that… but now I’m ready to fight back fiercely for what’s mine.. but you are not giving me a chance”
Dylan sneezed out, he felt his fever has intensified after he got drenched under the rain…
Louisa placed her novel on the table and walked to a drawer.. she opened the drawer and brought out a pill..
She took a jug of water next to the bedside lamp and poured a little amount into the glass..
“This will help you relief your fever..”
Dylan accepted the glass of water and pill with a small smile.. he knew it.. even though she was acting to be tough in front of him.. deep down she still cared..
But what exactly was stopping her from speaking her heart out?Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Dylan placed the cup on the table when he was done…
“I can promise that I’m not only here for Nora but for you too” he said suddenly to see her freeze for a while…
Liam stepped out with the pink bathrobe and felt like vanishing into thin air..
Amelia closed her magazine when she heard the bathroom’s door opened..
She suddenly bursted out laughing startling Liam in the process..
Liam had a grin on his lips also at least he had given her a reason to laugh..
“Mr arrogant you look beautiful…
She jested crackling up in laughter, Liam’s ears were getting redder by the moment…
“You know how much I hate this color.. and yet you..
He sighed at the end and limped towards the bed where she was sitting on..
“It’s good to see you smile and laugh again after all these years.. I missed your smile the most”
Amelia’s smile freezed on her lips, Liam was at his cheesiness again..
