Gabby’s POV:
He sighed loudly, “I need you to be the person you were meant to be.”
I was extreamly confused, “This is who I am supposed to be…”
He shook his head, “It’s late, I’m going to bed. We will talk tomorrow when Liam leaves.”
He got up and headed to the door. He turned around, “He seems like a nice boy.”
I nodded my head, “He is.”
He nodded his head and closed my bedroom door behind him. I laid on my bed and set my alarm for 8:50. I needed to be up to wake up Liam. I picked up my phone and I had several texts from Harry.
“Please answer.”
“I need to explain.”
“Nothing happened.”
“Fine. Fuck this.”
I rolled my eyes and placed my phone on the table. I pulled the covers over my cold body and fell fast asleep.
“Help!” I screamed as I shot out of my sound sleep.
The door shot open, “Gabby, are you alright?”
I saw Liam take a step forward. My father and mother were quickly behind him.
My breathing was quick, “Another nightmare?” My mother’s voice was quiet.
I nodded my head slowly.
“Was it the same thing?” She asked.
Of course it was. “I cant remember. I get close to what it is and then I wake up.” I answered.
“Janice, can we talk?” My father asked.
“Of course, Matthew.” She responded. They left the room, leaving only Liam and me.
He slowly walked over to me. He sat on my bed. “What was it?”
I shrugged and looked down at my hands.
“You do know.”
I shook my head, “No I don’t.”
“Then look me in the eyes and say it.” He said sternly.
“He still scares me.” My voice was close to a whisper.
“Harry?” He questioned.
“No.” I paused, “Quinton.”
“He has no power over you anymore.”
I let a tear fall down my face. I still wasn’t looking at Liam.
“Gabby, look at me.”
I shook my head as another tear fell. Liam brought his fingers to my chin and pulled my head up slowly, until my eyes met his.
“He can’t hurt you anymore. I wont let that happen.”
“I know.”
“You don’t sound so convinced.”
“Even if he isn’t in my life when I’m awake, doesn’t mean he cant haunt me while I sleep.”
Liam nodded his head. “I should get going. I can call someone to pick me up.”
I looked at the clock and it was already eight in the morning. “Let’s go get breakfast.” I suggested.
He shrugged, “Sure, I just have to change out of these old clothes…actually I can wait.”
I shook my head, “No, you can change. We can stop at your house or whatever.”
“I share an apartment with Harry.”
“An apartment?” How was a senior in high school sharing an apartment with someone?
“Yeah, I know it sounds weird. His dad pays for it though. His father doesn’t like him being in the house. He has a younger brother and his father doesn’t want him getting in the gang life. Harry is a huge disappointment in his father’s eyes.”
So we both have daddy issues. “Well, uh, that’s fine…we can still get you some new clothes. I will just wait in the car while you change.”
He nodded his head and smiled.
“So, I will change and we will be on our way.”
He got off my bed and headed to the door.
“Liam?” I called after him.
“Mhm?”
“Please don’t tell anyone about these nightmares…”
He smiled, “Of course not.”
I smiled back at him as he closed the door. I got out of bed quickly and changed. I didn’t dress up much. I threw on a Nirvana t-shirt and black jeans. I looked like some punk wannabe. I got on a pair of black combat boots. It definitely looked like I was trying too hard.
I knocked on Liam’s door. “Liam?” I asked as I opened it.
He was sitting on the edge of the bed. It didn’t even look like he had slept on it.
“Did you make the bed?” I could help but smile when I asked him.
He shook his head, “I didn’t sleep in it.”
“Why?” I made the surprised tone in my voice evident.
He shrugged, “I don’t know. I just didn’t.”
“Where did you sleep? I swear if you say the floor I will burst into tears.”
He laughed, “Why?”
“Because that would be the silliest thing I have ever heard!”
“Well I slept on the floor!” He laughed again.
I sighed, “Come on, let’s go to breakfast.”
He smiled and followed me out the bedroom door. I went downstairs and my mother and father were sitting at the table laughing. It was like he had never left.
“We are going to get some breakfast.” I announced to my parents.
My father nodded his head, “Do you have enough money?”
I nodded my head.
“Have a nice time!” My mother called after Liam and me as we walked out of the kitchen.
I got in the driver’s seat and Liam sat in the passenger seat.
“That was weird.” I said to Liam.
He nodded his head, “Almost as weird as it’s going to be for me.”
“What?”
“I am the one that has to go see Harry, after I just spent the night at your house.”
“Oh…right…” I had no idea what else I was supposed to say.
I started the car; “Maybe you should drive, because I have no idea where you live.”
He smiled at me and we switched positions. I certainly did not want to see Harry at all.
