Everything Changes

Confessions

Audrey POV

I lay on the couch aimlessly flipping through channels when my phone went off.

From: Liam
We need to talk can I come over?

From: Audrey
Yeah sure

About half an hour later I hear a knock on my door.
"It's open!"
Liam comes in and sits down next to me. I wonder what he wants to talk about he seems nervous and worked up. He runs his hands through his hair and rubs the back of his neck. I scoot over to him and give him a hug. Liam stiffens under me. Yep, something's definitely wrong.
"Hey Li."
"Hey." He mumbles.
I go to give him a kiss but Liam just turns his head. I sit crisscross-applesauce on the couch facing him.
"So........what did you want to talk about."
Liam looks at me and I see worry and concern and something else in his eyes.
"Um, errr please don't hate me."
"I would never hate you Liam."
He looks at me like he doesn't believe me.
"Well......um cause you were hanging out with Louis all of yesterday I went and hung out with Lillian."
I look at him and nodded for him to go on.
"So well we went to the park and something seemed wrong so I asked what was wrong and she well.....she.....um."
"She what?"
"She kissed me." Liam muttered under his breath probably hoping I couldn't hear him.
"What!!!!!" I said leaping to my feet.
"Please don't kill me it didn't mean anything I promise I love you."
"Did you kiss back?"
Liam goes red and looks at the ground.
"You idiot you know I thought I was finally going to have a good relationship. That I was done with all the guys that were jerks. The guys that beat me and cheated on me. I thought you were different Liam. I trusted you."
"I know." Liam mutters still looking at the ground.
"I know you said it didn't mean anything but we both know that's not true. If it didn't mean anything you wouldn't have let it happen in the first place. I don't think I can do this anymore."
I say gesturing between the two of us. I curled up in the beanbag chair on the floor. Liam comes and kneels beside me. He wipes away the tears streaming down my face.
"Audrey, I know I made a mistake. That's why I had to tell you. I couldn't live with myself if I didn't tell you. Please lets work things out."
I look up at Liam. He is look at me with sorrow all over his face. I can see the tears in his eyes.
"I trusted you Liam. I loved you."
"I know and I know I messed up please forgive me. I just need one more chance."
I looked into Liam's eyes his chocolate brown puppy eyes that I could never say no to. Well almost never. I can't trust him anymore. I might as well start to move on.
"Liam well it's not just the cheating. I don't feel the same way around you anymore. I put on my happy mask and play the happy deeply in love girlfriend when I'm not entirely sure that I like you anymore Liam."
I say lying through my teeth I feel the opposite way but if I don't do this we'll never be able to move on. Liam looks at me shock and hurt on his face.
"You, you don't like me anymore?" he stammers out.
I shake my head.
"So you feel nothing anymore when I do this."
At that Liam leans in and gently presses his lips to mine. His lips are soft and warm and taste like chocolate. My heart starts racing and the butterflies go off and I forget how to breathe. Liam pulls away and looks at me questioningly. I shake my head no even though the rest of me screams to lean in and kiss him again. Liam leans in to my ear.
"Your a bad liar love. Will you please forgive me."
I shoot to me feet.
"Liam Payne you are a bastard. You are annoying and an idiot and I hate you please leave."
Liam gets to his feet and grabs his coat. I can see his fists clenching. I start to back away from him. Harry is notorious for a bad temper but he doesn't even come close to Liam's rage.
Liam turn in the doorway and looks at me his face a mask of coldness.
"Audrey Conner, I think your the biggest mistake I ever made. Your selfish and arrogant. You throw a fit if something doesn't go your way. Your whorish and slutty and throw yourself at any guy you meet. I wouldn't be surprised if the only reason Louis is friends with you is you are sleeping with him. Oh, and I never loved you. I only dated you for one thing, sex. I thought you would be easy and even though I didn't get any you're not worth trying. Your worthless, fat, ugly and a bitch."
Liam's words cut straight through my heart. I feel myself start to sob..
"Liam." I sob
He looks back at me.
"I wasn't out with Louis last night. I was here waiting for you. hoping you would show. It was our 1 year anniversary. Please just go." I say saying the last part softly. Liam turns and closes the door. I grab my phone and call the girls on speed dial. Lettie picks up first.
"Audrey what's wrong why are you sobbing?"
The other girls had picked up the phone everybody except Lillian I didn't call her. I swear I was going to kill that girl after I locked my heart back up.
"Liam cheated on me." I sobbed into the phone. I heard shocked silence on the other end.

Liam POV
I sat in my car tears streaming down my face. I though if I told her I could make things better. I see her face in the back of my mind as I said all those things I didn't mean and that weren't true. Audrey might not be perfect but she is perfect for me. I swear I will earn her trust again and earn her heart. She will be mine again even if it kills me cause she has my heart. Maybe one of the girls can help?
