Liam leaves my room before anyone could spot him. I tried to sleep but my mind was full of questions. I need answers and I need them soon because I’m going to explode. A soft knock sounds on my door and Zac’s head appears in the doorway.
“I see that you’re not sleeping as well.” He says sadly.
“Who else is not sleeping?” I ask.
“Liam” So someone saw him. “Listen, I’m not stupid. I share a room with him and when the guy is telling me that he’s going to the toilet and doesn’t come back after seven hours, something is wrong. I know he was with you.” I don’t know but I feel bad.
“Yeah, he was. We… we have sex together.” I say softly and look down at my hands. Zac steps closer to bed and sighs.
“I know I told you that I don’t feel anything but damn, it hurts.” Shit, I didn’t want that. I didn’t know that he has feeling for me. I used him, fuck, I thought that we’re having fun, but I gave him a fake chance. I showed him that something can be between us.
“Zac, I’m so…” Zac doesn’t let me finish. He lifts his hand to stop me from talking.
“Don’t be sorry because you care about someone. I saw you looking at him. You show the expression that you hate him, but I could read you. I knew that you care about him, and I know he cares about you too. Damn… He always has the best girls and I’m always the last one. I’m this nice friend.”
“That’s not true and you know that. I don’t know why it happened. I like you, Zac, I really do. To be honest I don’t know what this is between me and Liam between me and you. I care about you two. I just… I’m confused because I never had anyone who cared, expect my brothers. You see, I thought that I have feelings for Tyler, but I don’t. I was just confused that I misread my own feelings. And now I don’t what I feel either.” I say honestly.
“I understand and I don’t know what I’m feeling. It’s just that when I had you, I felt like a winner because finally, I had an interest of a girl who is… you. And then I get scared and told you that shit and now I’m regretting this, but I don’t know if I would be able to avoid this scare, so I’m not mad at you or Liam. You know what I mean? I think I need to search my own answers and feelings and then maybe compete with him.” I take his hand in mine and nod.
“We’re still friends?” I ask. He nods his head and smiles at me.
After a while, we walk to the main room where everyone is gathered. Tyler looks my way and then looks at Liam and then I know that he knows. But he can’t blame me, I told him that we’re done.
“We have an incoming call from our father,” Ty announces putting his phone on the table. I sit next to Liam and look at him. He smiles at me and takes my hand in his. This simple gesture shows me that he’s here for me. I take a deep breath as Tobias presses the accept button. My father’s face appeared on the TV screen in front of us.
“Hello children, I see that you’re well.” He eyes Liam and Zac. “I see that we have here some unwelcomed people.”
“They are staying father. I trust them.” I stand up from my seat, still holding Liam’s hand. My father sees that and smirks.
“I see. Okay, let’s begin. So, yesterday we had expected situation. Expected because I knew these people will come for what’s mine, but I didn’t know when. You need to come back home. It’s safe now. We will discuss it further then.” He states.
“I will not leave this room until you tell me what they were looking for,” I say. My father studies me and sighs.
“You. They were looking for you princess. This is not a conversation for now. Come back home and I will explain you everything. Tyler you know what to do.” Tyler nods his head and the call ends.
“Tell me now, Tyler. I need to know!” I shout.
“I’m not the one who should tell you this princess. Let’s go home. You will find out soon.” He walks away and I look at Tobias. He shook his head and I know that he is confused as I am.
We leave the house and drive to our home. The ride was long and silent. I didn’t want to push. My father would explain himself soon.
Chapter 22
We arrive soon enough, and I ask Liam to go with me along with Zac. I don’t want to be there all by myself. I should be confident around my family, but the truth is that I don’t know them anymore. They lied to me too many times. I never expect to say this, but I trust my so- called enemy more than them.
We step inside and Tyler leads us to my father office. He is sitting behind a huge desk with his head hang above some papers. He lifts it as soon as we walk in. His eyes travel to Liam and Zac, standing behind me and he sighs.
“Welcome home kids and… friends. Please come in, I’m not biting.” He laughs but there is nothing funny in this situation. We move forward and sit on the leather sofa situated near his desk. My father steps up and walk to us. He takes his chair and sits on it in front of us. He crosses his arms on his chest.
“My dear princess. I know that you have many questions and I’m going to answer them now.” He murmurs.
“Why they were looking for me?” I ask straight away.
“You see. This is going to be
