Who was it that led you on
And makes you want to hurt me so?
And makes you want to hurt me so?
Maea was still - unnaturally so, in a way that made Liam think that this had been poor decision making on his part. Or maybe it was good - to go ahead and get it out in the open, so that there were no secrets lingering. Even if his heart stuttered in his chest for entirely the wrong reasons, terrified, suddenly, that by sharing this, he was losing Maea. And on only day one. That had to be some kind of record.
”I was on the beach, and I saw her training. But she was punching wrong, so I stopped to correct her. We ended up sparring. I had her pinned, but then she kissed me. I stopped the spar, told her she won. She asked if it was because of you.” Liam paused. ”I didn’t know what to say. I cared about you, but I hadn’t admitted to myself that I wanted more than friendship. Anyway, she seemed upset, so I left.
“I saw her once more before the party. I apologized, in case I’d given her the wrong idea. She said she’d asked you if there was anything between us, and you’d said no, so she thought I was fair game. She said she’d been broken up with recently and was just looking to feel something.” He shifted nervously. ”There’s nothing between Flora and I. I just… I didn’t want there to be any secrets.”
