right?
When I felt a cold breeze on my face, I opened my eyes. Liam gently set me on the ground, widely grinning. I took in our surroundings.
We were standing on the snow covered grass, outside the school. Crisp, white, shining covering that transformed the landscape, making it a magical land full of wonder and undiscovered mysteries. The snow did not glide, but rather it created random patterns within the air. As it settled, it dissolved slowly into the snow already placed there by the last sprinkling. Everything looked breathtakingly beautiful, including the angel standing in front of me.
I felt confusion flood over me, though.
"Liam, why are we here?"
He smiled even more, a hidden secret appearing more mysterious than ever. He held one finger up, signaling for me to wait. He turned, his back to me as he did something on his phone.
I focused on the weather, and shivered. I was freezing. Goosebumps were present all over my arms. My teeth were chattering.
Liam finally turned to face me, then music was blasting from his phone. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket, laid it on the snow and put his phone on it.
I immediately recognized the song.
" Settle down with me, cover me up, cuddle me in..."
"Liam! Will you please tell me what's going on? I'm dying over here," I said. I felt warmer. He placed his hand on my waist and my hand on his shoulder.
"You owe me a dance," moved his mouth, as he shrugged. My breath caught in my throat. I gulped what was left of my saliva, as my mouth went completely dry. I took deep breaths to steady my heart which, as usual, was beating inhumanely.
This time, I didn't concentrate on dancing, my attention was fully directed towards the guy holding me.
And all of a sudden, nothing in the world mattered. The way he was looking at me was making me melt. As if my insides were being mashed. I finally understood the riddles. I figured everything out. From the sweaty palms, to my heart racing when I see him. From admiring his blue eyes, to having dreams about him.
I felt this way about Liam because I loved him.
" I'm falling for your eyes, but they don't know me yet. And with this feeling I'll forget, I'm in love now," sang Edward Christopher Sheeran, who shared his middle name with Liam's.
I don't know what came over me at that moment, was it the way his eyes were reading my soul or the way he was absent-mindedly smiling at me, making his eyes sparkle.
"Liam, can I tell you something?"
He nodded, curiosity shining on his face now. I let go of him, so we weren't dancing anymore. The song had been over for more than five minutes now.
I plopped myself on the grass, he mirrored my actions. I pulled on the grass, slightly easing my nervousness.
"Promise me that no matter what happens, we stay friends after I say what I need to confess, deal?" I said, butterflies exploding in my stomach. His eyebrows furrowed now, with worry. I looked at him in the eyes. It was almost like he glowed.
"Liam, I lo-" I was cut off by a ringtone.
Maybe that was a sign, I shouldn't say anything.
"You need me, but I don't need you, you need me, nah I don't need you,"
Liam jumped and grabbed his phone. When he saw the caller's I.D, his face flushed and he gave me the phone, his hand shaking with worry and concern. He reminded me of a little scared child. I immediately pressed the green answer button. That's how it worked, when someone was calling him, he had to give the phone to the nearest person beside him. I put it on speaker.
"Hello?"
"Hello, I'm guessing this is a friend of Liam's," greeted a manly voice, slightly trembling.
Liam was observing my every move, "Yes, what's wrong?"
"This is Doctor Morrison, it's about his grandmother."
Liam tensed.
"Yes? What's wrong with her?" I asked, worried myself. There was a long pause.
"Well, her heartbeat's slowing and she's
