“Wait a minute, you’ve been at his house? When?” Zac asks with disbelief, eyeing me suspiciously.

“I lost consciousness when he threw the bomb that my father kidnapped me, and he took me to his because he panicked.”

“I didn’t panic. I’m not allowed at yours, remember?” Liam asks.

“Doesn’t matter. I’m not going with you, I’m staying here.” I cross my arms on my chest and stare at him. He smirks at that. Bastard.

“You don’t have a choice, I’ve already decided.” Liam grabs my bag and moves to leave the room. I stand up rapidly.

“Who the fuck you think you are to decide? I already told you. I. am. Staying. Here. Period.”

“Enough, you heard her bro. She wants to stay. Anyway, if Sophia finds out you have a guest, she will tear you a new one.” Zac chuckles and the unknown feeling creeps to me, jealousy. I don’t know why I have this feeling, but this is a good chance to rub this slut’s nose. Yeah, right it is the only reason. Stupid voice.

“After a second thought, I will go with you, but my father cannot find out.” Zac jaw drops with shock and Liam smirks, again. This bastard knew that I will go.

“Common let’s go,” I say and move past Liam.

Liam walk out the front doors and Zac motions for me to follow him.

“Are you sure you know what you’re doing?” His voice is full of concern, “Don’t get me wrong but I thought that you two hate each other.”

“Because we do, but when you mentioned Sophia, I’ve decided to have a little fun with her feelings, you know?” I grin at him and he returns it.

“Is it the only reason you want to go?” He asks with this shit grin on his face.

“Don’t be ridiculous. Our families are competitors. I don’t even like him.” Because I don’t, do I?

“That wasn’t a reason of asking. I meant that maybe you want to make Tyler jealous but when you put this that way…” His grin widens, oh shit. “You like Liam, oh shit! I didn’t even think about it, but you just betrayed yourself. Holy shit! This is huge! Like massive!” He shouts with excitement. I shush him and he laughs even harder. We walk to the huge metal doors and Zac puts his hand on the reader. The light turns green and the doors open. We step inside and they close automatically behind us. The dark corridor become lighter as automatic light lighten our way. The walk is not long but how creepy. Everything is metallic.

“It’s special design. The walls are made from some shit hard metal, if someone would like to destroy it from outside or something.” Zac announces. He must see me exploring.

“I don’t like him,” I answer instead.

“Yeah, right. Maybe, you just didn’t realise this yet.” He smiles at me.

“Don’t mention this again. I have more problems on my head now. More important than heart problems.”

“Your secret is safe with me beautiful.” He chuckles. We come to the next massive, metallic doors and Zac puts his hand on the scanner once again. The doors open and Liam’s face appears.

“Welcome at temporary home, Morpho.” He gesticulates for us to come inside. We do just that and I gasp.

We are standing in a huge room. The walls are dark grey and black, my favourite. At the centre is a huge U- shape sofa and massive TV. I can see the doors probably leading to the bathroom or some shit. At the back of the room, on the pedestal is king size bed, but for real, like double or triple king size bed. Next to in is a walk-in closet which is as huge as mine. Some boy’s shit things like PlayStation, laptop is displayed on the coffee table in front of the sofa. An impressive desk is situated on the corner with some papers thrown on top of it. The most breath-taking thing is that there is no ceiling in this room. The ceiling is just a huge flat window. So, someone who lives here can watch the stars from every single place in this place, awesome.

I put my bag on the sofa and walk to the bed. I jump on it with open arms and sigh when I touch the plush surface.

“The bed is mine, you can take a sofa or any other room, because I just fall in love,” I state. Liam laugh softly. His laugh is so addicting, I could listen to it all the time. What the fuck is wrong with me?

“Yeah, this is my place. I see that you don’t remember it. You were probably too focused on storming out of here to realise how amazing it is.”

“Well, yeah, I don’t remember. I didn’t pay attention, and yes, the place is awesome. What about your dad? What will you do when he comes here?”

“He won’t. He never did before, so I don’t think he will this time. He doesn’t know that you are here. This place is kind of separated from the main house. I have own kitchen and things like that over there.” He motions to the doors I spotted before.

“Right, okay. I will get going. I have a date with some chick soon. I will text you later. Come back to my place on Monday, we will go to school from mine. Laters.” Zac salutes at us and disappear through metal doors. I stare after him for a short while.

“Is he dating someone?” I ask rhetorically.

“Jealous?” Liam answers anyway and I stare at him with anger. “Chill, I’m joking. He told me that nothing happened.”

“It’s not of your business. Even if something would happen, what would you do with that piece of information?”

“Let’s just say that Zac would not only have a split lip.” Liam winks at me and I open my mouth with shock. What does he mean? Never mind, I have a couple things to do first. I remove my phone from my pocket to text Tobi to
