it behind.

I walked down the hallway arguing with myself. I stopped and realized I made it to my dorm. I forgot that I had forgotten my key in my room. I stomped my left foot and groaned. I knock on the door and waited for someone to open the door. The door opened to reveal Liam in just his boxers.
Yeah, I was dying to just have him and now he is just taunting me. I walked past him and made my way to my room. I grabbed my dorm key and pushed it into my pocket. I turned around and jumped.

"Don't do that, Liam." I said as my heart raced.
"Do what?" He asked and then smirked at me.
"Don't play dumb." I said as I walked into the living room. He followed me and stopped right behind me. I turned around and growled at him.
"Someone is a bit cranky." He said.
"Well...when you stay up half the night watching movies, stuffing your face with food, and getting woke up by one of your girly screaming best friends then you'll understand." I snapped at him.
"Bad night?" He asked.
"Heck yeah." I said as I eyed him up to down. He had some sexy bed hair going on.
"What?" He asked.
"How Sexy?" I said with sarcasm.
"Oh, You like this." He said as he flex his biceps. I laughed and held my chest.
"No, I was kidding. It's not even-" I got cut off by Rarity opening her bedroom door and eyeing me.
"Hey, Rarity." I said. I felt awkward and gladly I wasn't showing it.
"Hi." She said as she made her way over to Liam.

She pecked his cheek and wrapped her arm around him. I growled in the inside but I refused to in the outside. I put on a fake smile as I heard my ring tone play from my pocket. I groaned.
I pull my phone out and sent it death glares even knowing it was just a device. I stared at my screen and sighed. I had a text message from Drew. How did he even get my number?! I click on it and read.

Drew: Hey.
Me: Just Hey!
Drew: Someone is cranky
Me: If one more person says that today I'm going to break their twigs meaning their arms
Drew: Well...anyway R u comin 2 my Party?
Me: Yeah Maybe
Drew: Cool C u there

I shoved my phone in my pocket and flopped down on the couch. Rarity had been too busy looking at her nails to notice Liam staring at me. It was silent for about five minutes until Rarity broke it by saying she's going to go to the mall. She had left me alone with Liam and I hated her for that. Liam sat beside me on the couch and stared at me.

"Stopping staring at me, Liam." I said as I crossed my arms over my chest.
"Why?" He asked.
"Because it's weird and uncomfortable." I told him.
"But your so....pretty." He said as he leaned in. My heart skip a beat as he leaned over by my ear and a shiver went down my spine.
"...Thanks." I said as I jumped up and rushed-walked into my room. I jumped on my bed and pushed the pillow to my face. I knew Liam had followed me into my room from his scent roaming everywhere. I pushed the pillow harder to my face and turned over onto my left side because Liam had laid on my right.

I mumbled into the pillow.
"What?" Liam asked. I removed the pillow and scowled at him.
"Go away." I demanded.
"No." He said.
"Yes." I pouted.
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"No."
"Yes."
"Ah-ha! Got you!" I shouted as I poked his chest. He turned to me and leaned in to kiss me but my phone went off.
Thank you phone, I thought. I take my phone out and click answer.
"Hello, Who is this?" I asked as I looked at Liam. He eyed me and crossed his arms over his chest.
"No, not at all. I'm not busy. Yeah. That's sounds great. I'll see you there." I said as I smiled at ever word I said. I hung up and pushed the phone back in my pocket. I stood up and Liam stood in front of me.
"What?" I asked.
"Where are you going?" he asked.
"To Drew's party." I said as I made my way around him to my closet.
"Drew's Party? You shouldn't be around a guy like Drew." Liam tells me.
"And you shouldn't be around a girl like Rarity." I snapped at him.
"Jealous much?" Laim asked with a smirk.
"I'm not jealous." I kinda yelled.
"Sure you are." He whispered.
"All right whatever." I say as I shoved my sweater on. I turn around and Liam looks a bit awkward. I smiled and push past him. I go to the door and I was about to open until Liam's hand touched mine.
"I'm warning you though. Drew isn't a guy you want to be with or even try to hang around with. He's not always the nice guy." Liam whispered in my ear. A chill went down my spine and pain hit me when Liam removed his hand from mine. I gulped and opened the door. I turned around as I heard the door shut I let out a loud sigh. For some reason, my heart kept telling me to turn around and don't go but my head is controlling me to go on. SO I go with my hand and open my best friend's dorm room door. I walk in and lay down on her couch.
Chapter Seven

Kaydee had went to Drew's party.

That was it and I would have went if it wasn't for my hand. I sighed as I turned over on my left side and rested my hand under my head. I was still laying on the couch since the morning. Haven't moved since. I kept thinking over and over why I had stopped myself.
My brain was telling me 'yes' and my heart said 'no'. I laid back on my back and covered my face with my palms. It was just too frustrating and I need something. No, Anything to make me stop thinking about it. I decided to sit up and turn on the TV. I clicked through several channels and stopped on Cartoon network channel.
"I guess cartoons can pass the time." I said to myself.

~*~*~
I was half asleep when Kaydee walked in and jumped half across the room. I giggled a little as I sat up and wiped the bit of drool I had on my chin. She punched my arm and threw her coat on the arm of the chair. I yawned and laid my back against the couch. I looked at Kaydee and smirked when I had saw a boy walk into her dorm.

"Kaydee-" The guy stopped when he saw me.
"Ummm...Well. I'm going to go." I said as I stood up and slipped on my shoes and said my goodbyes to them.
I walked past the guy and made my way to my dorm, which I didn't want to go to. Rarity was there and that means no freedom. Liam, also might be there and I can't take the chance of him staring at me. I rubbed my head and stopped at my dorm door. Here goes....everything.
I pushed the key into the key hole and turned. I heard a click

from the door knob. I sighed as I opened the door slowly not to be surprised in any make out sessions or something else worse. I let out a sigh in relief and pushed the door all the way open. My eyes shoot wide and the scent of Liam hit me like a semi truck.
I started to cough a little. I say he'd done this for revenge because he probably thought I went to Drew's house, which I didn't but he didn't know that. I walked all the way into the dorm room when I had got use to the smell. My eyes wondered around the living room and the kitchen. If the door was locked, does that mean Rarity isn't here? For once, in my whole life I have a room to myself.

"Alone at la-" I said but heard a door open.

I frowned as Liam appeared in my view from Rarity's door. He ignored my furious eye contact and grabbed a bottle of water out of the fridge. I kicked my shoes off and walked off into my room. I closed my door and put my ear to it. I still heard him in the kitchen messing around with the cabinet drawers.
I rolled my eyes when I heard him whisper,'Yum.' He had shoved one of Rarity's homemade cookies into his mouth while I tried not to laugh. Rarity is a one bad of a cooker and I've learned my lesson. I've tasted one of her brownies and probably not going to touch another one until I'm eighty. I heard him spit the cookie out into the trash and continue to search. I finally got bored and laid down on my bed.
I played with my phone for awhile. Just going through apps and old messages. I finally got bored and tossed my phone beside me. Gladly, it hit a pillow and slid back onto the bed. I sat up and looked around. I was obviously not going to sleep anytime soon. I sighed and pushed myself up.
I started to whistle and that led to humming. Soon I was quietly singing and dancing around my room. I had twirled and hit my leg off of my night stand. I held my scream and worked it off. I let out a breath I was holding and giggled. I started twirling and singing again.

"Oh, I just wanna take you any way that you like. We could go out any day, any night." I sang as I danced my way over to my shelf and grabbed my hair brush. I pulled it up to my face and started humming.
"Oh, tell me. Tell me. Tell me how to turn your love on." I sang and twirled around. My door opened and Liam peeked in. He contained his laughter as he saw me with my hair brush and me breathing hard.
"Whatcha doing?" He asked with his left eye brow up.
"Nothing." I said.
"What's up with the hair brush?" He asked as he grinned.
"OH! I was Brushing my hair..." I said as I started to brush my hair. He chuckled at me and I shot him a confused look.
"Really? Oh, tell me. Tell me. Tell me how to turn your love on." He smirked at me and I threw my hair brush at him but he closed the door. He opened it back up and smirked again.
"Love you to." He said.
"Hate you to." I grinned and walked to the door. I shoved it closed and locked it.
"Good night, My lady." He sang. I rolled my eyes and slid under my covers. I pulled it over my head
