Liam rolled his eyes.
'Totally, I doubt she ever does.' He showed Harper the last message before walking back to Kasey's room.
Behind The Mask [One-On-One // Closed]

Harper raised an eyebrow at the message and shook his head as Liam walked away.
Kasey glanced up when Liam walked in, giving him a small smile.
Liam returned the smile and mouth a 'hey' as took up his position on the bed again.
group
Kasey glanced at Liam for a moment and sighed.
"I'm sorry about what I said…" she murmured.
'It wasn't your fault, I took what you said the wrong way… and I also did need a glass of water.' Liam wrote to her with a small smile.
group
"Okay," Kasey said with a smile. She bent to press a kiss to his cheek.
Liam returned the kiss and sighed a little.
'I want my voice back now…'
group
"I want you to have your voice back, too," Kasey sighed. "I miss it…"
Liam cocked his head to the side and furrowed his brows but a smile tugged at his lips.
'Really?'
group
"Yeah. I… like your voice…" Kasey said, a red coat coming to her cheeks.
Liam smirked.
'I like yours, too.' He showed her the message before gently connecting their lips together.
group
Kasey started at the sudden kiss before melting into it. She closed her eyes as she kissed him back.
Liam gently rested his fingers on her chin, the other hand keeping him up to her face as he kissed her slowly and gently.
group
You're sick… Kasey thought as she pressed closer.
You said you don't get sick. Liam replied but pulled away a little.
group
Because I don't. But I didn't know if you wanted to kiss me since you were…
Kasey frowned a bit when Liam pulled back.
Liam smiled onto her lips when he noticed the frown.
If I knew you got sick I wouldn't have kissed you, but you don't so… He connected their lips again.
group
Kasey let a small smile flick across her lips when Liam kissed her again.
I see… Or rather, feel…
Yup…
Liam placed his hand on her cheek gently before tracing her jaw lightly.
group
Kasey felt her skin heat up where Liam traced it. She draped an arm across his shoulder, using the other to hold herself up.
Liam let his hand drift to her shoulder then back up to rest on her cheek again lightly. It almost looked as if he was shaking a little.
group
Kasey pulled back, feeling him shaking. She gave him a worried look.
"Are you okay?" she asked softly.
Liam clenched his fist and nodded, resting his head on her shoulder for a moment.
Yeah, I'm fine… just forgot to take my medication for it this morning…
group
"…For what?" Kasey whispered, her eyebrows coming together in confusion.
Nerve damage… I was in an accident a few years back. The medication helps a little… Liam sighed.
group
"Oh. I'm sorry… Can I ask what happened?" Kasey wondered, looking at him sympatheticly.
Liam lifted his head from her shoulder and looked away, resting his arm on his knee and biting the skin on his wrist.
I was on my way to… to my parents funeral in the country with my younger brother. It was raining heavily and the car got a flat tire, causing it to spin out off a cliff… my brother didn't make it…
group
"Oh, Liam… I'm so sorry…" Kasey whispered, squeezing her eyes shut tightly. Darn vivid imagination…
Liam sighed and with his free hand grabbed Kasey's.
It's fine… it's fine. Even as he thought it he didn't sound convinced as the memories of that night came back.
The tap, tap, tap of the rain on the roof of the car, the silence between him and his brother as he drove round the road. The crash of thunder that made them both jump and the car swerve, hitting that darned rock. The scream of his brother as the car spun out then dove off the cliff. Liam placing his hand on his brother as the car hurtled through the trees and eventually land at the bottom, his brother lying motionless before Liam passed out and woke up in hospital.
group
Kasey was still reading his thoughts when he had the memory. She flinched at it and felt tears prick at her eyes.
"I'm so sorry," she whispered again.
