Until There Was You Read Online Free PDF Page B

positive I would remember proposing
to someone.
    'What? Who? Excuse me, what did
you say?' I can't even string together a sentence.
    'Liam honey, your little
'friend' was just leaving...... you and I need to talk, don't you
agree?' A squeaky, high pitch voice pierces through the air
answering my question. I look at Lexi, my eyes pleading for her to
let me explain but she just shakes her head. The hurt in her eyes
hits me hard, shit! Please don't let her leave me I offer as a
silent prayer.
    'Wait here.....Please.' I beg
and she looks reluctant but nods. I go in search of my 'Fiancee'
it's a good job I don't hit women or this bitch would be top of my
list.
    'What or should I say how are
you here?' I demand, anger laced in my words but she doesn't seem
fazed. She sits there on my sofa legs crossed looking very much at
home and my mind boggles.
    'I came to surprise you but it
appears I was the one who got the surprise. Has your little
'friend' gone now? Really Liam I will not tolerate this behaviour
when we are married.' The disgust in words mirrors her
expression.
    'Have you lost your damn mind?
When did I ever say I wanted to marry you?' I try to keep calm,
honestly I do. 'When I have I ever gave you the impression I wanted
you, period?'
    'Your Mother and I were talking
after we had lunch yesterday and she said it would be any day now.'
My fucking Mother, I should of known.
    'My Mother also swears she has
never had Botox, I mean honestly.' I scoff.
    'Rose is an amazing woman, you
should be ashamed of yourself talking about your own Mother that
way.'
    'The woman is all kinds of crazy
if she thinks I want to marry you.'
    She looks insulted as she stands
up and brushes the creases out of her hideous pink suit.
    'Be careful Mellissa it seems
catching.' I sneer maliciously.
    'I am going to leave now and we
can discuss this like adults when you have calmed down.' She states
calmly 'For heaven's sake Liam get yourself tested, I don't want to
catch anything on our wedding night.' I am lost for words as she
storms out, I have more chance of catching god only knows what off
her and there will never be a wedding night.
    I am pacing the room dragging my
hands through my hair. My own Mother, how the hell could she? I am
24 years old for crying out loud. I was snapped out of my thoughts
and the plotting of my Mother's demise when I notice the presence
by the doorway.
    'Jesus Lexi, I am so so sorry
you had to endure that.'
    'So she is not you Fiancee?' she
asks timidly and if I am not mistaken hopefully.
    'Hell no, she's my Mother's
pet..' I laugh. 'I would of told you if I was involved with anybody
and I certainly wouldn't of kissed you.'
    'I was just coming to say
goodbye and thank you for everything you have done, saving me and
all that.' She mumbles, eyes staring down at the floor.
    'And where the hell are you
going to go?' My tone was a lot harsher than I intend but I don't
want her to leave me. Thought scares me.
    'Look Liam, it seems like you
have enough problems to deal with of your own, if you don't mind me
saying. I don't want to burden you with all mine as well.' She
still won't meet my eyes.
    'Is that not my choice?'
    'Well....Yes i suppose it is
but....'
    'No buts... I want you to stay
here. You have no where to go and I enjoy the company, problem
solved. Have you eaten?' I ask trying to change the topic, her
leaving me isn't an option so why drag it out.
    'I had a piece of toast
earlier.' She answers, a smile on her beautiful face. I notice the
bruising but don't comment.
    'We can do better than that.' I
grin back, bad mood lifted the instant she smiled. Wow the way this
girl makes me feel.
    'Do you like Thai food?' I
enquire to which she just shrugs and blushes. She really doesn't
realize how beautiful she is.
    'Is that a yes or no?' I tease
just to see her smile shyly.
    'I don't know, I have never
tried it.' She mumbles embarrassed again and I don't have the heart
to tease her.
    'Well would you like to try it?'
I am filled
