I don’t know what comes over me, but the urge to stake my claim is overwhelming.
“You are aware she’s currently my girlfriend, right?” I say, voice low and loaded. “And I’m certain you were the one who did most of the kissing.”
Liam doesn’t flinch. He just smiles that smug little smile of his. “You do know Maya hates you, right? That’s why she never came over when you were around. Remember that one time you came downstairs and she ran outside to meet me?”
He twists the memory like he always does. That’s not how it happened—
Not even remotely close.
I remember it perfectly I was sick as hell that week, missed school, could barely keep food down. I dragged myself downstairs, shirtless and barely functioning, just to grab water. But she was there.
