Chapter 32: Meeting his Mom


    I let out a of relief as Carter finally pulls up to the Liam''s house. I still haven''t gotten over how huge his


    house is, I have to ask him in detail, specifically what he does for a living. "Finally!" Spencer exims


    and jumps out of the back of the car from where she was seated beside me. Carter soon leaves the car


    and I follow him and Spencer until I feel a warm hand on my shoulder. Once again, the fireworks ignite


    in my hand already and I look up at Liam. Is he feeling the too? Maybe it''s my nerves or I''m imagining


    the sparks that are currently jumping around in my arm. "I''m sorry about what happened today, I


    should''ve protected you." Liam says looking like the guiltilest person ever. I furrow my eyebrows in


    confusion. "Liam, if anything you are the reason I''m not dead right now. You did all you could to protect


    me and there was no way you knew what was going to happen." I say, hoping to dilute some of his


    guilt. I let out a of relief as Carter finally pulls up to the Liam''s house. I still haven''t gotten over how

    some of his guilt. He face just looks so guilty and I just want to erase that frown that''s crinkling his


    perfectly handsome face." Promise me that you''ll always tell me where your going, so that I can protect


    you." Liam is staring at me with pleading puppy eyes that make girls want to jump off the London


    Bridge. Can''t say I wouldn''t join them. "Fine. I promise." I tell him truthfully and his face lights up with


    nothing but relief. Liam finally lets go of my arm, which he was holding onto so gently, like I''m the only


    thing keeping him from shattering into a million pieces. Spencer, Carter and I tramp up the steps of


    Liam''svishly elegant house. I observe that there are men here and there, positioned around the


    house like guards and a few people are streaming around therge house doing their daily activities.


    "This is where you tell Emerald what color casket you want at your funeral, as well as what type of


    flowers." Spencer reinforces her easier threat aimed at Carter. I see him bolt down the steps like a sh


    of lightning. "I''m gonna help my mom wash her clothes, you know do the dishes...I''ll be backter, bye


    Emerald!" Carter exims before hepletely disappears. I wave at his retreating figure and can''t


    helpughing at how exciting and funny Carter is. He''s almost like a ray of sunshine during the darkest


    times and I feel like I need someone like this in my life. Spencer shakes her head and frowns before


    opening the door and pulling me inside. "Spencer!" A voice immediately greets us. A woman in a


    sunflower dress who seems to be in her middle age is standing at the door with a batch of cookies on a


    tter in her hands. "Emerald!" She says again before I can I introduce myself. The smiling woman


    looks strikingly familiar and I internally gasp as I figure out who she is. "Your Liam''s mom?" I say but

    but ites out more of a question. The womanughs and hands Spencer the cookies before draping


    me into a warm hug. Spencer dissappears with her treats, leaving me with Liam''s mom. "Nice to meet


    you Miss. Jones." I say extending my hand for her to shake. She pushes it away and hugs me again


    instead. "Call me Sarah. My, you''re prettier than I thought you would be." Sheughs and pulls me


    through therge house and we enter what looks like a kitchen. Liam''s ''kitchen'' looks like it could fit two


    (2) of my beds, with all of the appliances in my house and even have ce left to hold a cooking


    contest with 50 or more participants. Sarah gestures for me to sit down in one of the stools at the ind


    and I do just that as she uses her mittened hand, which had a really good mouse design on it, and


    takes out a tter of brownies. Yum.
