Attached at the hip.

*Liam's POV*
I can't believe it has already been another year since I was home. Things have been pretty crazy with the tour and everything that time really flew by. It didn't really hit me that it had been a year until actually got to sit down with Savannah and catch up with her, she told me about university and her apartment and a few other things; and I told her a little bit about tour and stuff. She is the same 'ol Sav, there are still some differences I noticed in her. Her emerald green eyes had lost their sparkle, I wonder why... I know we haven't talked as much as planned but still... if something bad had happened or something hurt her she would have told me right? I haven't the slightest clue as to what took that sparkle, but I have to find out, just maybe another day, I don't want to upset her on my first day back. I still haven't told her about Danielle and I breaking up, I don't want to focus on Dani while I'm with Sav, I'm only here for two weeks and I want to make the most of them.
We are downstairs having dinner at the table, my mom and dad are sitting across from me and Sav is sitting to my right, my sisters would be next to my parents but they are both arriving tomorrow morning. I can't help but admire how beautiful she looks, her hair is curled perfectly with her bangs pulled back in some fancy braid thing and she is wearing a floral blouse with some leggings and toms. We chat for a long time and finish our food, but we keep talking for about another hour before actually cleaning the dishes and all that. It's around 9:00 when Sav looks at her phone "Oh wow, it's already 9:00, I should be getting back to my apartment." I look at her and give her my best 'please don't go' puppy dog face "Stay?" I ask "You can even stay the night! We have a spare room, or we can build forts just like we used to!" I say. I'm sure I was making a fool of myself but I didn't care, I'm here for a limited time and I want to spend every second that I can with Savannah. After about ten minutes she finally caves.
*Savannah's POV*
Dinner was wonderful, getting to spend time with Liam and his parents was great. I hadn't been over since Christmas and Liam didn't even get to come home for that. I can't believe I let him talk me into staying the night, we haven't done that since we were kids and I didn't have any spare clothes or anything. But then again, how could I say no to his puppy dog face? I swear it is the cutest most irresistible thing I have ever seen. Now that I think of it, I'd say Liam is probably the cutest most irresistible thing I have ever seen. He has these perfect brown eyes that can just make you melt, his body is insane (in a good way of course), and that smile makes me weak in the knees... but I would never tell Liam that, first off he's my best friend, and second he is with Danielle, and I know she makes him happy.Plus how could I compete with her?! She's stunning and I'm just, blah.
My trance is broken by Liam waving his hand in my face "Earth to Sav..." he say as I snap out of it "Oh huh what?" I ask realizeing he has been talking to me the entire time I was thinking about how goregous he was. "I was asking if you wanted to borrow some clothes to sleep in?" he says "And what were you thinking about?" he adds. "Oh sure, yeah that would be nice" I say with a smile "Oh.....umm nothing" i say rather abrubptly. I'm a terrible liar, I can't lie to save my life, espically not to Liam. But luckily he just let's it go. "Whatever you say Sav.... You can grab whatever, you know where the clothes are" he says and I sigh a small sigh of relif and make my way over to his closet. I immaditely go for an old hoodie of his, it's my favorite out of all he owns, and he has a lot of sweashirts. I also go into his drawers and grab a pair of basketball shorts. I head to the bathroom to change, a few moments later I walk back in wearing Liam's clothes with my hair in a messy bun and my makeup off. When I walk in his room Liam is just in his boxers, most girls would be freaking out right now, but I know Liam sleeps in his boxers and they are basicly shrots so I don't really mind. But dang, if one thing was for sure, Liam had been working out, last time I saw him he had a good four pack, but now he has a full six pack with some pretty hot v-lines. I'm not going to lie, he's hot. Like really hot. But he's my best friend and would never think of me that way....
"Hey you" he says with a smile "I see you grabbed your favourtie hoodie" he says with a small laugh, he knows how much I love this hoodie "Yeah, you may not get this back for a while" I say with a small laugh "Thats fine, you wear it more than I do anyways" he chuckles and sits on his bed patting the spot next to him. I go and sit next to him "Soooo..... How are you and Danielle..?" I ask with a smile, even though there is a part of me that still likes him I am glad that he is happy. "Uh.....about Danielle....ummm we broke up" he says softly, I can hear the pain in his voice. "Li.....I'm, I'm so sorry to hear that, why didn't you tell me?" I say and move closer to him and wrap my arms around him just like he would to me anytime I was upset "Yeah.... Things just weren't the same...the hate got to her, and we both decided it would be best" he says softly looking down. "I just knew you were busy with school, and I dint want to bug you" I hold him tightly and rub his back a bit knowing that his mother did that to calm him down as a baby. "Liam, you know you can always talk to me hun, always, I always have time for you. It'll be okay Li...I promise" I whisper and keep rubbing his back "Things happen for a reason" I suggest.
"what about you?" he asks me "Any boyfriend or guy I need to interrogate?" he asks managing a small smile obviously he doesn't want to talk about Danielle, I laugh a bit "Well....maybe not interrogate, but beat up sounds appropriate" I say with a nervous laugh, knowing that once Liam knows he is bound to go ballistic. "What do you mean? Who is he? What did he do?!" Liam looks up instantly and I can see anger already appearnt in his eyes "Woah there Li, calm down...." I say "You remember Dylan from high school?" I ask, he nods without saying a word "Well we dated for about six months....It was getting kinda serious when he..." I pause, almost afraid to say it "When he what?!" Liam asks "he started hitting me...." I say softly "HE WHAT?!" Liam says practically yelling as he stands up "That ass hole! Just wait 'till I get ahold of him!" Liam says balling his fists up. "Liam no....please... I finally shut that door and I don't want to open it again..." I say softly as the memories flood back to me and the tears start forming. Liam sees me and his expression immidately softens and he engulfs me in a hug "How long did this go on for...?" he asks me "Three months" I say softly "why didn't you tell me?" he asks, sounding a bit hurt "Because Liam...You were on tour doing more important things... There was nothing you could do and I didn't want you to worry...." I say softly as I cant hold the tears back anymore "Savannah.....Nothing is more important to me than you" he says and kisses my head "I know I've been gone and things have been tough on you, but that doesn't mean you can't talk to me, I am always here love, always" he whispers. I nod and move to Liam's bed and pat his spot, he crawls into his bed and gives me a sympathetic look and I give him the same look, both of us had gone through alot relationship wise and we both needed a good cuddle. Liam must have been thinking the same thing I was because he put his arm around my waist and pulled me closer to him. I layed my head on his chest and we just laid there for while.I felt safe in Liam's arms. I hadn't felt safe in a guys arms in a long time and it felt great to have my best friend there to cuddle me and keep me safe. And all of the sudden he starts sining to me, his voice is beautiful and soothing, instantly making me feel better.

I'm gonna pick up the pieces,
and build a lego house
when things go wrong we can knock it down

My three words have two meanings,
there's one thing on my mind
It's all for you

And it's dark in a cold December, but I've got ya to keep me warm
and if you're broke I'll mend ya and keep you sheltered from the storm that's raging on

before he can go any further my eyes close and I drift to sleep in his warm arms.
