Leave Your Lover

Vivian's POV



"Vivian," a husky voice whispered to me. "Vivian," the voice whispered again as gentle hands landed on my smaller back. I liked the feeling of the warm hands on my body, and took the chance to fall asleep with the feeling. The owner of the husky voice released a sigh, a sigh which's breath hit my face, and that got me up.

"Huh?" I widened my eyes at Liam who was kneeled down beside the couch.


"I guess you must have fallen asleep," he told me in a soft voice. His warm hands slipped away from my smaller back and I found myself missing the warmth. I tried to convince myself that I missed the warmth only, but deep down I knew that I missed the feeling of being held. And at that moment, I couldn't tell if I missed Louis holding me, or someone else. I nodded at Liam and sat up on the couch. "I cleaned up the mess in the kitchen," he smiled at me. "You've never been clumsy in a kitchen before," he chuckled. His body slipped onto the couch beside me.


"Thanks," I muttered. After my simple one word, there was silence. An awkward silence that was so thick one could cut through it with a chainsaw. I didn't worry about the mess in the kitchen or his comment. Liam was the first to break the silence.


"Are you alright?" He looked down at me. His eyes searched my face before landing on my eyes. I sucked in a breath at the breathtaking beauty that was next to me. In that moment with Liam staring into my eyes, I didn't care about what happened before the accident. What mattered to me then, was the feelings rushing through my mind, body and heart simply by just looking at Liam.


"I-I," I tried to put my thoughts into words, but nothing except for shattering, which made me look like a fish, came from my mouth. A knowing smile crept onto Liam's mouth. A small, yet breathtaking smile. A smile which reached his eyes. A smile, which reached my heart. I gulped as I looked at him. How was it, that I couldn't find any words?


"I miss you looking at me like this," Liam whispered before he lifted his left hand. His hand brushed some of my hair and combed them behind my ear. The same breathtaking smile from a few seconds ago didn't leave his face.


"How am I looking at you?" I found the strength to speak.


"Like I'm the most fascinating person in the world," he brushed the hair behind my head gently, his fingers touching my neck softly. "Like you love me more than anything in the world," he breathed. "Like you won't ever leave me," his smile faded at the words, and a frown formed on his face. I felt guilty for leaving Liam.


I didn't know why I felt what I did in that moment, but I couldn't deny that I felt something. Liam's hand dropped from my hair and fell into his lap. He bent over and rested his head in his hands. My hand made its way to his back. It rested gently on his lower back and he tensed under my touch. The more I moved to his shoulder, the more he tensed. My hand stopped at his shoulder closest to me and I felt his muscled shoulder under my touch. I gave a slight squeeze, watching Liam arch his back. His back relaxed before I allowed myself to continue touching the beauty next to me. I didn't know why, but I felt the need to touch him. And not in a sexual way, I just wanted to touch him. I wanted to somehow be in contact with him. I let my hand touch his neck and watched as the small hair started raising. I shifted more to the front of the couch and slipped off. I kneeled down in front of Liam before putting my hand on his shoulder. It fascinated me how he reacted to my touch. It seemed like I never had that impact on Louis. Liam peaked at me through his fingers with one eye. I held eye contact with him as my hands roamed to his chest, stopping there for a while. Liam tensed up again and he sat up straight, his hands falling from his face as mine fell from his body. I moved closer to him and put my hands on his chest again. In a swift second, Liam removed his shirt. The clothing fell to the floor before his big hands took mine. The warmth made my heart flutter. He laid on his back and pulled me with him. I refused to lay down and decided to sit up. My hands rested on his chest yet again, and his hands found my waist.

"Liam?" I breathed.


"Vivian?" He cocked an eyebrow with a smile before his hands lifted my hands to his lips. His lips pressed to both of my hands as I spoke.

"What were we?" I asked in a soft voice.

"What do you mean?" He frowned. I pulled my hands from his and folded them in front of my chest.

"What were we before my accident?" I asked again. Liam tensed underneath me.


"We were a couple," he nodded. But the way he said it, made me believe he was rather trying to convince himself and not me.


"I've been having these," I frowned before continuing. "Kind of memories that come to me," I told him.


"And?" His eyes widened.


"Well at first it was about us talking about getting engaged, and the one I got earlier was about you calling me your fiance," I told him in a soft tone.

"Is that why you called me over?" he frowned. His expression almost looked disappointed.

"I just want to know the truth," I admitted.


"The truth," Liam nodded. "We did plan on getting engaged, yes." He nodded again. "And I guess we were engaged, but only for about two weeks before your.." He stopped before saying 'accident'.

"Where's my ring?" I frowned at him.


Liam smiled before reaching for something around his neck. A chain came in view with a ring and a small locket like the one similar to mine. I reached to my neck and pulled my locket out. I held it in my hands as I looked at Liam.


"Why do you still have it?" I questioned.


"Why do you still have your locket?" He smiled. I honestly, didn't know the answer. When I didn't answer, he frowned. "Because I'm still hoping that maybe one day you'll come back to me."


My heart sunk at his words. "Who knows about our engagement?" I questioned.

"Only me, you and my parents," he shrugged.

"How did you get the ring?" I pointed to my ring that was connected to the chain.


I questioned to myself; why I still wanted to call the ring 'mine'.


"You asked me to keep it for you, well until the other's knew," he spoke as he looked at the ring and locket. His eyes gazed up to my face once more before I climbed off of him. Liam frowned at me, but didn't say anything. After a few seconds, he got up too. We stood awkwardly in the living room, just looking at each other.


"Vivian?" Liam breathed.

I nodded at him, signaling that he could continue.

"I know you love Louis," he spoke softly and gently, almost as if he was afraid to scare me away. "And I have no right to ask this from you," he continued as he stepped closer to me. "But could you please kiss me one last time before I go?" He asked as he ended right in front of me. I considered it, scolding myself for considering something like that. But ended up giving in. I closed the distance between our bodies and pressed my lips against his. His lips were soft, his mouth warm. His scent reminded me of vanilla, and his mouth tasted like chocolate. Liam broke the kiss and lingered with his lips on my temple for a second before walking away. I watched him as he walked to the front door of the house. He stopped at the door, and told me he loved me before disappearing. The moment he was gone, I sunk down in the couch. The tears threatened to fall, and eventually fell. They came in waterfalls, non stop tears flooded my face.


I love Liam. I still love Liam.

Notes

SURPRISE UPDATE! Because I really miss this story! I am still on vacation, so I can't update or log in a lot. But here you go <33 I hope you like it. I'd like to thank everyone for the votes! Can I please get some more before I update again?
THIS IS A LIAM CHAPTER ONLY because you need to know about how they are together without Paps and the rest of the guys.
So about the chapter. I know that in the first few chapters, they don't mention that they are engaged. But if that was a part of the story then, it might have spoiled everything.
Please remember to comment with either Liam or Louis' names, if you don't know why, here you go:

I don't want to dissapoint my readers. So I give you guys the chance to comment and let me know who you want Vivian to end up with. The one with the most votes, will be the one she ends up with. UNLESS someone leaves a comment and tells me why she should end up with Liam/Louis but they give me a very good reason why. Because then, I won't count the votes and I'll simply take the book in the direction of the comment. So come on, comment <3 and I want to know if you guys want a second book to this one? Because I want to start my planning for it now. If 5 or more than 5 people want a second book, I'll do it :)
I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH
I'll try to update again,like because Christmas.
The readers of this book are called my "Leavors"
