Reveal

(DIANE)

I stared into the air not knowing what to tell Max about Armstrong. He wasn't that good of a person but i had always been trying to be strong since he put me through hell some years ago.

"Promise me that you won't go all dark on him". I said looking deep into his eyes.

"What has he done to you?" Liam asked placing both his hands on mine. "Tell me why he would make you cry" he said with so much sincerity in his eyes. Without me knowing, i started to cry again, my eyes were filled with tears that i could not hold them back. Before i knew i had begun crying loudly now. Liam stood up from the couch he was sitting on and rushed to hug me.

"Its okay, please stop crying you can tell me about it...I'm here for you".

I was so hurt and pained that i kept thinking about the decisions i had made. What if i had chosen differently? Would all this vanish? I was angry at myself that i needed to cry out my feelings.

After a little while, i stopped crying and i began to explain to Liam everything that had happened. He kept staring at me as if he wanted to go beat Armstrong to a pulp.

"Tell me everything" he put his arm around my shoulder holding my hands.

"So i got married to Armstrong after we dated for a while, i met him at a bus station and he was sweet to me..." I told Liam my backstory leading up to now, how i knew that Armstrong was cheating on me and how he defiled me whenever he liked.

"I'm sorry you had to go through all that.....you don't deserve that". He said with an angry expression.

"Want me to go talk to him?" He asked full of concern. I instantly shook my head knowing what would happen if Armstrong and Liam collided. It would become a war zone.

"You sure you don't want me to?" He persisted but i still refused.

"I have to go" i said wiping off the tears that had dried up in my cheeks. "Now?" Liam asked in a shocking tone.

"Yes now"

"No stay....I'll take care of you...look no one will harm you" he was hell bent on me sleeping over.

"You know he might be stalking you right?" Liam said obviously trying to give me reasons to stay.

"Plus it's us both so...."

I knew the objecting wouldn't be an option cause it seemed he would not let it go until i had agreed to stay, so i nodded my head and smiled.

"Good" he said with a smile that said he was pleased.

"But what about Armstrong?....he'll definitely be looking for me" i said feeling restless.

"Leave that to me" he was sparking with confidence. Liam collected my phone and started scrolling through my contacts.

"Do you have his number?" He asked still going through my phone.

"Yes i think i do" I responded.

He found his number and instantly he sent him a text and a location stating where they would meet.

"What are you doing?" I was surprised at what he had just done.

"You just told him where I would meet him"

"Yes and I'm hoping he will come....because its me that he'll be seeing"

"I hope you know what you're doing" i said with a little fear.

"You can go to sleep, I'll be back in a moment i want to go clear up the kitchen" he was walking out when I grabbed his hand.

"Stay with me" i didn't want to be all alone. Liam smiled and cuddled up in the bed with me and we slept off.

I woke up in the morning and Liam wasn't in bed. I came out the room shutting the door behind me and started hearing voices. It seemed like two people were arguing. As i was walking down the stairs, i could see Liam in the hallway with his back facing me but as i got closer someone was standing right in front of him.

"WHERE IS SHE?" I heard the voice say.

"Liam?" I called out his name, he turned around and moved a little. It was Kayla, she came and she was in no happy mood rather she looked very pissed.

"We have unfinished business".
