Chapter 96

They both sat in silence, staring at each other. Heather wasn't sure if she wanted to know what

happened last night but she could already guess because they were both naked and that only

meant one thing.

She sighed as she ran her fingers through her hair out of frustration.

"What the fuck happened and please don't say we had sex" Daniel tilted his head.

"Okay, we didn't have sex...” She heaved a sigh of relief, “We made love" Her eyes widened. She held

the sheets up to her chest as she shook her head frantically.

“I must be having a nightmare because I was with Liam last night, not you,” Daniel nodded.

“I don't know what happened but you called me last night to come pick you up at Levi's house and I

immediately came. You didn't seem drunk or anything so I'm surprised you don't remember" As

soon as she heard that, her memories came rushing back and she gasped with her hand over her

mouth.

After Liam had dropped her off, for some reason, she began to think of Daniel. A wave of courage

had hit her and she found herself calling Daniel, asking him to come pick her up. Everything else

after that was like a breeze.

Daniel had come to pick her up and she had been in her feelings when he was driving her away and

when he kept telling her how much he wanted her back and how he regretted ever letting her go,

she had initiated a kiss and things got heated after that. She gasped loudly.

So everything was her fault? How could she do that? Most importantly, how could she do that to

Liam when all he did was shower her with love and care? Why did she still love this man next to

her?!

Daniel furrowed his eyebrows and grabbed her hand when he saw that she was about to get out of

bed.

“Where are you going?" She snatched her hand out of his hold and glared at him.

"Where does it look like I'm going? I'm going home. I don't know what sort of witchcraft you used

on me but this was a mistake, a mistake that's never going to happen again” He scoffed.

“It wasn't a mistake and you know that. You called me last night because you missed me, didn't you?

You wanted this and so did I, how is that a mistake?" She groaned as she tugged at her hair.

“Because I hate you and I'm with Liam now. Liam's the man that you can never be"

"Yet, I'm the one you love" She frowned. She hated that he always had an advantage over her. She

hated that he could see right through her and she hated that he was right. She did want this, she

had been dreaming of having sex with him ever since they broke up.

"And that's something I would give everything to change. Leave me alone and don't ever speak of

this especially to Liam because he's the one I want to be with” She muttered and climbed out of the

bed. She gasped when Daniel got out of bed, walked over and stood in front of her.

She tried her best to keep her eyes leveled with his but she had already got a sneak peek and he

was heavenly. Gosh, why did he have to be so sexy?

“Don't spout out lies, Heather. No matter what, I'll always have your heart and I know I'm the one

you want. You are just using him as a rebound to forget about me" She scoffed.

"Everything doesn't revolve around you, Daniel. I won't deny the fact that I still love you but that

doesn't mean Liam is a rebound because I like him as well. Liam treats me like a human with

feelings whereas you... you don't even care about my feelings at all" Daniel's eyes softened. He

quickly grabbed her hand and shook his head.

“No, I care about you Heather, more than you know. It's just... you know i say mean and horrible

things without thinking but that doesn't mean that's how I feel. That day when I said you weren't my

problem anymore but Liam, I didn't mean to say that because you were never a problem to me. As a

matter of fact, I was a problem to you because I..."

"Why did you leave me, Daniel? Why did you make me reject you?" She questioned, cutting him

short and he pursed his lips.

“I don't want to say it, Heather. Please don't make me" She frowned.

"What did you do that was so bad? Did you sleep with someone else? Fall in love with someone

else?" He frowned.

“l..." Just then, her phone rang interrupting their conversation. She wanted to ignore whoever was

calling but when she saw the caller Id, she immediately grabbed her phone.

“Shut your trap” She muttered to Daniel before running into the bathroom and closing the door

behind her.

“Liam, hey" She uttered Into the phone and tried her best not to let him know she was panicking.

"Hey, I missed you last night. I wanted to come back and stay with you for the night but I thought

you might have wanted your space but I miss you too much now, can i come visit you? I'm almost

there and..."

"No!" She screamed and he paused.

“No? Why?" She but her lower lip as she ransacked her head for a lie.

"Well... well because I... I'm not home right now. I went out.. I went to visit Kiara. She said she was

lonely” Liam didn't say anything for a while.

"She's with Zane" Heather's eyes widened.

"What?!... I mean... yeah, yeah she's with Zane but you know their relationship isn't the best right

now so she called me to keep her company so she won't focus on Zane"

“Oh... that makes sense” She inwardly heaved a sigh of relief.

“But I will soon leave so we can meet at maybe the beach or something? I missed you too" She

hated the way guilt clenched her heart. She felt like a monster for doing this to Liam.

"Okay, I'll meet you there then. Remember Heather, I love you" She frowned as she glanced at the

bathroom door. Who did she love? Liam or Daniel...
