Chapter 59

"Liam, what happened to you?" Cassandra asked.

"Nothing..." Liam replied calmly.

"How can you say nothing when you are obviously bleeding?" Cassandra was so worried.

"Let's get him to his room first" Mr. Leonard said and they helped Liam to his room.

When they got to his room, Liam sat at the edge of his with his head down while his uncle brought the first aid box.

"James I need you to help me out with something" Mr. Leonard said and dropped the box in front of Liam.

"Cassandra, I will have to leave this to you" he turned to Cassandra.

"It's ok uncle Leonard" Cassandra replied.

"Let's go" Mr. Leonard said to James and they both left.

"Actually, I don't really need your help. Just want to give them some space to talk" Mr. Leonard said and went to his room.

James was stunned and could only stand there gaping at the man for a while.

'Then I guess I should also spend some time with Gabriella too' James said to himself and started smiling sheepishly.

....

Cassandra silently picked up the box, opened it and started treating his wounds.

"Does it hurt?" She asked

Liam was quite for a while, and then he held her hand and looked at her. Cassandra could only look back feeling confused. Was he trying to tell her it hurts?

"Not as much as you ignoring and treating me like a stranger" Liam replied while looking straight into her eyes.

Cassandra was in a daze for a while, but she snapped out of her dazed state when she remembered she was actually mad at him.

"What do expect when you have another girlfriend?" Cassandra murmured under her breath but Liam heard her.

"Another girlfriend..." He was confused. Gosh... He heard her.

"Uhmmmm..." Cassandra was speechless.

"Look, feel free, tell what so ever that is on your mind" Liam said.

"I treat you that way cos I was jealous Diana is also your girlfriend" Cassandra closed her eyes and said in one breath.

"Diana?" Liam laughed.

Cassandra opened her eyes wondering why he is laughing. Is she a joke to him?

She got angry and turned to leave but Liam dragged her back. She lost her balance pushed Liam and ended up falling on him.

They both stared at each other for a while.

"Cassandra, I have only one girlfriend. And that is you. You miss understood the other day, Diana hugged me just to make you jealous" Liam explained.

"Aside from Gabriella, no one has that irreplaceable potion of my heart except you" he added in a hoarse voice and pecked her on the lips.

Cassandra stood up immediately. She felt very nervous because of the sudden peck, embarrassed for thinking Diana is his girlfriend and happy that it was only her weird imagination.

"Uhmmm... I.. Just remembered... I need to get some snacks from the bathroom" she stammered not even knowing what she was saying and then she ran out of his room.

Liam could only smile at how adorable she looked.

Cassandra stood by the door and calmed herself before going back to his room.

"I need to finish up the treatment" she said.

"Where is the snack you went to get from the bathroom?" Liam asked in a teasing tune.

"Snack? Bathroom?" Cassandra was confused, how the hell can a snack be in the bathroom? She wondered and her eyes almost bulged out of their sockets when she remembered she actually said that.

She composed herself and ignored that then she went over and finished up the treatment.

"I'm done." She said while closing the first aid box.

"Thank You" Liam said and she smiled.

"I have to go. Good night" Cassandra said.

"Don't go... Stay with me. Please..." Liam held her hand.
