Liam's POV

  "Your sister has very good taste, doesn't she?" I walk up to Zoe's sister, and scrouch down next to the hospital bed.

  "Zoe? You're dating Liam Payne?" She practically jumps out of bed. Zoe gives me a smile and nods her head. "I am." She adds. Inside I feel ecstatic.

Zoe's POV

  "How are you feeling?" I rush to her beside. "I feel puktifying." She says and I can't help but laugh. When I was younger and way interested in having a sister than I am now, she used to make up words. And I guess puktifying is one that stayed. Liam gives me an 'am I missing something' look and he nods as if he figured it was just an inside joke.

  "Where has mom and dad been?" I ask Courtney making sure she is able to talk. "Here, there and everywhere! But mostly at home getting things ready for when I arrive." "Well, it's looks like you'll be an only child in the house from now on," I say to her getting a confused look.

  "You- you're moving out?" She sits up and scrunches up her face while holding the right side of her ribcage. "I have to. For college." I lie, not wanting her to worry about my relationship with our parents. She lays back, looking disappointed. "I know it's sudden, but look on the bright side. We won't have to fight twenty four seven anymore. Or that often." I say we all laugh. "But what if I like making you loose control and mess up your makeup every morning?" She asks making me a little emotional. "Then I guess you'll have to come visit me," I say and give her the biggest hug I can imagine. "Once you get better, you can come check out me and Holly's apartment." I tell her looking up at Liam once and a while. "Dang. You already bought it? I for sure thought you would call me before hand, you know you would've needs my approval before the purchase." She jokes.

  Liam gets a phone call so he walks out into the hallway. "How did you meet him?" Courtney starts to talk quieter than before. "At work." "This is so unreal wait- he is your least favorite in One Direction. Why him? No. What's in it for you?" Liam walks in and he looked relieved. We immediately stop our conversation. "I'm sorry, but we will be having quiet hour in five minutes," A nurse walked in and out to inform us.

  Liam and I both stand up. "On second." Liam starts to dig through drawers and cabinets. He finds a Sharpie and presses down on Courtney's bandaged shoulder. "May I?" He asks and she gives him a nod. He starts to scribble his signature and a little not attached by a hyphen. I wave goodbye to Courtney and I can see her staring at her now graffitied shoulder smiling ear to ear.

  "Oh, Liam?" She catches him before closing the door. "Tell Niall, Zayn, Louis, and Harry that I said Hi." She says to him and I giggle under my breath. Now that's the Courtney I know. By time she is back at school, she will boast on and on about how One Direction signed her gun shot wound bandage, and how she never took it off. "Will do!" Liam finishes.

****

  "Hey, Zayn." Liam says walking into the elevator Zayn was standing next to. "The doctor said Harry is now well enough to come home tonight if we pleased." Zayn was talking very proper. Unlike the way he is supposed to speak. "That's great," I budge into their conversation. "It is." Zayn smirks at me, sending a weird feeling through me. Yeah.. I really don't like Zayn.

  We enter the floor and we both follow Zayn into his room. "Fuck!" Harry screams trying to get up. I thought he had a problem with his head not his feet. "This is why I don't like being lazy for too long! Then I can't and I won't get back up on my damn feet!" He looks my way finally realizing I was here and his face turns a bright red. I was too busy staring at his chest admiring all of the inked designs. He coughs slightly bringing me back to reality. He knew I was staring.

  Suddenly I start to think of Niall. And the kiss. Since he was the only boy that wasn't here right now. I felt that our kiss was just a kiss. I don't feel like I should try to make myself believe that it means something. I wonder what Holly and Niall were doing right now. Probably watching a cheesy comedy she found on Netflix. I couldn't help but giggle to myself. "Let's get the hell out of this place before Zayn drops something else on my head." I can see Zayn flinch, worried about his reputation. Did I get the whole story of this? Zayn. Dropping something on Harry? I can believe that. It has to process first, but I can believe that.

  Harry is pretty much himself now, considering he is running about in the parking lot. Harry begins to walk again and Liam and I walk to his car. I see Harry by their other black car and pull the handle. The ear splitting alarm goes off and I couldn't help but bring my hand up to my ears. "Harry! THAT ISN'T OUR CAR!" Louis yells and Niall grabs his hand and leads them to the real car. I can see Zayn Louis trying to catch up with them and hide in the car. We jump in speeding out of the lot. Looking through the mirror, I see Harry, nor Niall decided to shut the unknown cars door. I tell Liam to look before he makes the turn. "Man, that just doesn't look suspicious at all!" He says and I laugh. "Nope. Not at all."

****

  "Just stay here. I will be back soon." Liam says and follow the other into the apartment. I pull out my phone to see 6:00 and I wish I could just fast forward to Monday. I want to get this next weekend over and start college. I really need to get my car back. I'm sick and tired of always being in the passenger seat year again. All I wanted to do was crawl up in a ball and stop thinking about Liam. And even boys in that case. Why was I even dating Liam anyway? It's not like their is a reason I need the extra money. I could be dating Niall Horan or maybe even Harry Styles right now.

  I see Liam walking back to the car. "Sorry, I just wanted to let them know I need to get Niall." "It's fine." I say and stuff my phone back into my bag. "Thanks for taking me out, and coming with me to see my sister. It means a lot." I thank him as he turns down the music. "I would love to come again. Your sister.. Is very original." He smiles at me. "That she is."

  About ten or fifteen minutes later we arrive. I intend to just get out of the car and tell him I will send Niall down, but instead we have a total make out session. He hold the back out my head and keeps his body against mine. He trails down my jaw and cheek bones making them gush with warmth. I pull away, smiling saying goodbye. Know I think I have an idea of why I don't just dump him now. And plus, I'm not that kind of person. Well, I can be.

  Walking into the apartment I smile. Reminding me that this gorgeous place is all mine. Mine. Oh yeah, and Holly's. It just makes me smile. I set my things down on the couch a and it's pretty quiet. I walk up to our bedroom, our door wide open. I see Holly on top of Niall straddling him and rocking side to side. I hear slight moans coming from both of them. I slide next to the wall and lean my body up against it.

  I was so wrong about that cheesy Netflix movie.
