Fragile Ties Of Love

Loud music is playing, some students are dancing and other are chatting. The few one who are alone are dispersed observing the others. My eyes scan the room for Liam. Fortunately, I see him standing at the entrance with Lucas, Mateo, Levi and Mason. My legs drag me to their direction and he smiles as he sees me. His friends pushed him to me and he looks like he hesitates for a while before walking up to me.

Without a word, he grabs my hand and pulled me away from the noise.

Now we’re standing in the boys changing room. Before I speak, he gently cups my face. His forehead is touching mine as his eyes flash in the evening light. My heart races and I look away shyly but he lifts my chin up with his finger.

I admire his beauty,drowning in the rush of love and awaiting a toe-curling kiss. I hear his words;

“Don’t be silly. You’ll never be my type.” Followed by a chuckle. My blood runs cold as my brain draws a blank

Liam Hunter, the name that could make your knees turn jelly. He had it all the looks, money and everyone’s dream girl, Beatrice. He was the school’s basketball team captain. Every girl was dying to spend even a second with him, well except her. His charms didn’t work on her and she seemed oblivious to his existence.

Everything changes for Liam when he is dared to date Zara for a month and then dump her.

It all starts as game, a mind game for Liam. But what happens when the heart gets involved?

What will Zara do after learning the truth? Will she get over her love for Liam and go back to herself?
