Chapter 3
It's been two months since Liam got married and today I'm headed to his sister in law Elsa's house to give her some bikinis my sister's and I made from our clothing line L׳ King. L׳ because all our names start with L and we are three people and King is our last name.
Elsa is married to Liam's brother Chris and has been a great friend to me since we met. She even loves our line so much that she constantly promotes us and tells her fans to check us out. When she first started doing that I told her she didn't have to because I didn't want her to feel obligated to do so and I didn't want her to feel like we were using her fame to get our line out there but she kindly told us to shut the fuck up and that's she's doing it because she loves us and our line.
Pulling up to the house I park and get out grabbing the bag and head to the door. After I rang the doorbell I wait for about two minutes before the door swings open and I'm pulled into a tight hug by Chris.
When he finally let's go he walks me to the kitchen where Elsa was and when she sees me she smiles and gives me a big hug and as she lets go Chris says "Oh!" and pulls me in another hug and then he pulls away and kisses my forehead then he says "That's from Liam." and I just nod and sit on a stool at the kitchen island.
As I'm sitting there talking to Elsa about the new bikinis Chris just sits there and stares at me and when I finally turn to him and see him staring I say "What?" and he says "Why are you avoiding him?" and I say "Who?" and he looks at Elsa and says "Damn. She's avoided him so long she doesn't even remember his name." he then turns to me and says "Liam. Why are you avoiding him. And don't say your not because you are. You don't come around when he's home, you wait until he leaves to come to the parties and let's not start with not answering your phone or text when he contacts you. Hell he doesn't even know where you live now." I look away from him and he sighs and says "He did something didn't he?" and I nod and he says "It has to be pretty bad for you to ignore your best friend." and when I don't answer he says "Even though he's my little brother you can tell me. You've been in my life since you were born, your my family too." and I said "He played me." and he says "How?" and when I don't answer he says "I promise I won't tell him." taking a deep breath I say "The Christmas before they got back together and engaged again he told me he was in love with me. That he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me." sighing I say "We had sex and when I woke up in the morning he was gone. No note or explanation. He just ghosted me and then a few days later I saw he was back with her. I felt used." reaching over Chris wipes my tears that I didn't realize I was crying and pulled me into a tight hug with Elsa joining us.
Pulling away from the hug I say "That's why I've been ignoring him. It hurts to know the person I've been in love with since I was ten would do that to me." and Chris says "I'm so sorry he did that to you." and I shook my head and said "It's not your fault.". Elsa then says "So you haven't talked to him since that night?" and I said "At first I called and texted him every morning when I woke up and every night before bed but when it came out they were back engaged I stopped. He texts and calls me sometimes but I don't answer or reply." sighing again I say "I didn't go to the wedding because I couldn't face him." and Chris says "That's totally understandable." and Elsa says "So the family vacation was a lie?" nodding I said "When I told my parents I wasn't going they wanted to know why and when I told them they decided they weren't going either and to get my mind off it we went to Aspen. Dad called Craig and said we already have a trip planned." and Chris laughs and says "James would stop at nothing to make his baby girls happy." laughing I said "Yup." Elsa then said "Did Liam call or text you that day?" and I said "Ya he text me that night but I didn't reply." and Elsa said "He was looking at his phone all night, looking all sad. God you should have seen his face when we told him you weren't coming, it looked like someone killed his dog." Chris then says "Well it's his own fault. Mom and dad didn't raise him like that." and Elsa said "Yup.". and right as she says that I get a text from Liam,
From: Liam 👑
I'm fixing to go surfing and as I'm getting ready all I could think about is you and how much I miss you. Remember all the surfing we did at sunset because you love how beautiful the sky looks when the sun's going down. God Lovie I miss you please answer me. I miss my best friend. I just want to hear your voice again, even if it's to tell me to leave you alone. (We both know I never will) I don't know what I did wrong but I'm sorry. Please Lovie I need my best friend. I love you. 💖
I read the text to Chris and Elsa and they both pulled me in a hug and Chris says "Take all the time you need. Don't ever feel like you have to reply to him. It's his actions that got him in this position." and Elsa says "We love you and were always here for you. Now I'm going to try on these bikinis." and she kissed my cheek and walked away with the bag of bikinis.
Later that night I was on instagram and saw I was tagged on a post so I went see what I was tagged in and found Elsa posted a photo of her in one of our bikinis.
