stared in curiosity. He resembled him in almost every way, but his attitude was what made her snap into reality.

            “Take a picture maybe it will last longer,” Liam snickered when he caught her staring; she blushed in embarrassment for getting caught. He thought she would close her window and curse at him, but surprisingly she did not.

            “Who would take a picture of you? As if I find you attractive,” she averted her eyes away and he chuckled at her stammered sentence. He didn’t care if she found him attractive, there was no way he would ever see her in a romantic way. After all she was a selfish, mean, rude brat that never shut her little mouth.

            “I don’t give a fuck if you find me attractive, Alice,” he spoke his breath coming out in white clouds of mist. “I don’t care about anything,” he gave her one last glance before closing his window and going to his bed.

            Alice narrowed her eyes and furrowed her eyebrows; she didn’t ask that self-centered guy about his opinion. “What a jerk,” she closed her window and went to her bed. She was conflicted over her parents and about that jerk’s words.

            “Liam I really wish you would come back,” she mumbled feeling a tear descend her flustered cheek. She may put up a cold front in front of everyone but inside she suffered a doll afraid to be played with. Waiting to be picked up and see her worth, for the right person to tell her... 

 

[Step 4]: It's alright, everything is fine...

 

Liam smiled brightly as he walked down the hall, his arm wrapped around Penelope everyone’s gaze lingered on him as he nodded hello. The usual routine that left him exhausted by the time he arrived home and stopped him from acting like someone he isn’t.

            To his boredom he had to put up with being the nice, cool guy everyone saw him as…a Prince Charming. He laughed internally at the thought and almost tripped when he saw Alice being kissed roughly by that same guy from yesterday against the locker.

            He huffed in irritation and Penelope glanced at him in puzzlement, “What is it babe?”

            Liam looked at her and smiled warmly as he replied, “Nothing Penny, I just got a little dizzy.”

            It was the truth though he felt like if he could barf out all his breakfast at the sight of Sweet Alice kissing a ghetto guy. He shook his head for thinking that his Alice was still sweet, he really needed to get her out of his mind. But it frustrated him that she changed and was something she never would have been if only he had stayed with her.

            “Do you want me to take you to the nurse?” Penelope offered but he declined in a heartbeat making up some excuse to escape. He had a valid reason as to why he could miss first period, and stop being the persona he wasn’t for a while.

            “See you later Penny,” he waved goodbye as he dropped her off in her class, and began to walk toward the nurse’s office. The bell had already ringed signaling the start of a dramatic day that was sure to come like a tsunami. “Oh great,” he sighed in annoyance.

            When he entered the room he was greeted by the old nurse Serena, who always had her wiry white hair tied back in a low bun. “My look what the wind brought to me,” she smiled as she stood up from the chair. “What brings you here Liam?”

            “I’m not feeling well; can I lie down for a few periods?” Liam replied giving her his best sullen expression. She giggled and nodded her head directing him to a bed in the corner; it had these curtains that hid the person so they won’t get disturbed.

            He lay on top of the bed the sheets covered his lower body and he took out his cellphone putting on his ear buds, and putting the volume low on the music streaming into his ears. For a moment he contemplated over what he was to do, he was getting tired of being someone he wasn’t.

            But at the same time revenge coursed through him, he wanted to see Penelope’s face when she would get rejected. Liam could still remember those feelings of pain in his heart and he was prepared to break her tenfold. Take in her bewildered cross expression, he chuckled at his thoughts.

            When suddenly Nurse Serena told Liam that she would leave for a conference meeting, he agreed to take care of the office while she was gone. After minutes of hearing his favorite playlist he caught the sound of a door closing.

            He opened his lips ready to speak when he heard the unmistakable voice of Alice; he stilled on the bed and listened in interest. “Mike stop, what if she comes back?” She gasped as a audible thump filled the room.

            “Don’t worry she won’t come that quick, and anyways it gives us time to have a little time to have fun,” the boy Liam is assuming is Mike said with longing in his tone. The rustling of bed sheets and moans filled the office and Liam blushed knowing that they weren’t just kissing.

            To be honest he never went far with any girl, he was still a gentleman and didn’t feel comfortable doing indecent acts with anyone. He always got flustered and received nosebleeds when he gazed at a girl in just a swimsuit, and he was ashamed that he was so weak toward a girl showing skin.

            But knowing Alice was that experienced really hit him right in the gut, he should already consider the fact she isn’t his little sister. There shouldn’t be a reason for him to even think about her, but the more she fought against him the more she appeared in his mind. What a nuisance…

            “Wait, Mike stop please I don’t feel comfortable,” she spoke out of breath, for some reason Liam felt his heart skip a beat at her husky tone.

            “Come on babe, it would be so much fun if we do it here,” Mike moaned followed by the echo of a zipper opening. Liam’s fist tightened when Mike ignored Alice’s weak plea to stop, and that was when he did something out of character.

            He stood up and spread the curtains going over to the bed to the side where he caught the guy on top of Alice, her face flushed and her shirt opened exposing a white laced bra. Liam grabbed the guy from the collar and threw him off her without a sweat, his face distorted in anger.

            “If she says no, then that is a no,” Liam growled as he took off his jacket and tossed it to Alice who was closing her shirt in a hurry. Mike glared at him and spat in distaste, “What the hell is your problem? And what business does this concern you?”

            “I just hate it when guys force themselves on girls who don’t want them,” he informed standing above him with his arms crossed over his chest. “Now if you don’t mind, I’d like you to leave before I beat the crap out of you.”

            Mike huffed in frustration and stood up; he gave Alice a look of anger before storming out of the nurse’s office. Liam sighed in irritation and glanced at Alice who was beet red from embarrassment, his jacket wrapped around her torso.

            “T-thank you,” she stuttered her eyes were averted down to her trembling hands. He blinked for a moment and a flash of little wee 5 years old Alice appeared on the bed her body shaking in fear.

            He put a reassuring hand on her head, and she looked up at him with confusion, he smiled gently and whispered, “It’s alright, everything is alright…Alice.”

            Her lips parted and she forgot how to breathe as she remembered her Liam muttering the same words…with the same expression. She let his hand rest there for a while and found herself taking in his aroma from his jacket.

 

Maybe…he wasn’t that bad. Alice thought silently. 

[Step 5]: Just a measly Thank you

 

  “I can’t believe I let myself get hugged by that person, ugh it was just in the heat of the moment,” Alice yelled aloud as she walked home from school. She felt like a huge headache was surfacing due to her jumbled thoughts.

                How could she even assume that Mr. Jock reminded her of her Sweet Liam, there is no way they are even the same person…yep no way. Alice sighed as she gazed ahead at the sidewalk, the same sidewalk that she and Liam used to walk together from school.

                “Liam can I stay over at your house?” She asked looking over at her friend as they took small steps forward, the wind caressing their hair and flushed skin. Alice didn’t wish to go home where her mother and father would be fighting and screaming at the top of their lungs, it always made her cry from fear.

                “Of course, you are always invited to my house,” Liam answered with a bright smile, his chubby cheeks made her smile alongside him. “Especially when you feel sad, because I will do everything in my power to make you smile,” he continued noting as her lips fell for a second.

                “Really? Even if it’s the middle of the night?” Alice adverted her gaze away from him her steps slowing as she waited for his answer. “You don’t have to be so nice to me, just because you pity me.”

                Liam blinked and frowned at her sour tone, “I don’t pity you, and I don’t mind if you visit me in the middle of the night because you are my best friend.”

                Alice felt her cheeks burn nonetheless she linked her arm around his and pressed her side against his, his warmness felt nice and it soothed her racing heart. “Thank you Liam,” she whispered as they walked to his house arm in arm.

                She giggled remembering his flustered expression as she glanced at his house, wondering if she was welcome even now. But then she realized who that house belongs to the guy she despised, even now she can’t explain how much she hated him for taking her Liam’s place.

                Rolling her eyes she went over to her house and opened the door, her eyes widened in surprise when
