Chapter 1.

Carla had disappeared. She just wanted to be alone. She knew people would be worrying about her. But right now, in this moment, she didnt care. Tony, Michelle, Steve, Liam. Liam. Her Leebugs. The love of her life. The man she could never call her own. The man that made her so upset, it terrified her. That had so much power over her, yet so very little. Why did it have to be him? Liam. Her husbands brother. Her friends husband. Husband. That word pierced through Carlas mind. He was a husband. A married man. A father. She knew, that whatever chance she had bebefore, had gone. Liam had a child. With another woman. She never thought of herself as the mother kind, but she felt that that should be her. Her waking up to his face every morning, and falling asleep to at night. Her taking their child to the playground and to school. Her feeling his soft lips on her own. And just for a second she did. She remembered the first time they kissed, and she felt it. The feeling made her shiver and covered her body in goosebumps. "Cause I love you Carla" she heard it. Again. Over and over in her mind. Liams voice. Telling her he loved her. The memory flashed in her head.

"I thought I told ya to get dressed, Tony could be in any minute."

"I'm not leavin" Liams voiced in a nervous yet confident tone.

"Look, I really cant deal with this right now" Carla tried to sound in control but she knew there was nothing she'd like more than to take him back to bed. Hell, even the thought of two men fighting over her pleased Carla, and she might very well have let them, if it wernt for Tony being bigger than Liam. In size and in strength.

"Well ya gonna have to, cause I love you Carla" Liam knew what he wanted, and at this moment he wasn't affraid to admitt it. Though the thought of fighting Tony did make him a little uneasy. Liam liked to think of himself as strong and masculine, but he knew his strength was no match for that of Tony Gordon. But he was still willing to fight it out for the woman he loved.

Carla felt butterflies in her stomach, she was nervous and she was blushing. She loved Liam too, and those words made her feel, feel. The feeling was indescribable. But she was scared, and she wasn't going to admitt it. So she just put on a sterner voice and said "just go please" but she was secretly hoping he'd stay, and fight for them.

"Not until you tell me how you feel" he was still refusing to go. This made Carla feel safer, but she was still scared.

liam stood up from the sofa, where he'd been sitting and walk towards carla. He stood behind her and held her arms, gentle as not to scare her, yet show support. "Tell me" he voiced, confident he knew how she felt

"Its not that easy" carla replied as she turned to face him. She looked ito his eyes. They were so gorgeous.

"It is, when ya know what ya want" Liam said as he leaned in for a kiss. Feeling relieved to feel Carla kiss him back. He gently caressed the back of her neck as they pulled away and looked into one anothers eyes. There was a silence.

Carla broke it questioning "how did we get 'ere?"

Liam looked at her with love clear in his eyes, tucked her hair behind her ear and replied "luck I suppose"

Carla sighs. She wasn't scared now. She loved this man more than anything in the world, and he felt the same for her. Liam pulls her in and embraces her in a hug using one hand to support her head against his chest and the other went around her waist and rested on her lower back. Carla put her arms under his and around to his back where they rested just below his shoulders. There was no denying the way they felt. THIS, was love. Being in love.

A crash on the floor pulled her out of her thoughts. She had been making a cup of coffee as she started to remember. And her hand knocked the cup to the floor as she made a hugging gesture. She felt Liams touch. She felt his hug. His warmth. She she could smell his aftershave. The one she used to make fun of him for wearing, because it was so delicate to the nose and a bit soft. But to her that was and is the most amazing smell in the world. She just couldnt admitt it, but Liam knew how she really felt. She missed that smell. His touch. His warmth. It really felt like she was back in that moment. Back with her Liam. In his arms again. She wished she didn't knock the cup to the floor. She still hadn't noticed the tears falling from her eyes, until she felt a drop on her breast. She looked up, thinking there must be a leak. That's when her eyes started to burn. The watery mascara had slid into her eye. Now she realised shed been crying. She started to wipe the tears from her eyes using the long sleeve of her cream colored blouse. She noticed the black smudges on her sleeve. So she went to get some tissue and splash some water on her face whilst she was in the bathroom.
