His Beautiful Addiction

Maybe she should talk to him, he looked like a nice person, and there was really no-one else to talk to. She could have talked to Leo but he was Claire's best friend; she couldn't possibly tell him that she once dated his best friend's boyfriend and she still can't get him out of her mind.

Sitting up on the couch, she took her phone out of her bag and searched for his number.

When she saw it, her hands stopped on it for a second, she wasn't sure if this was the best thing to do, but she needed a friend right now.

Tiana held the phone to her ear, her heart banging against her chest;

''Hello? ''

Liam's masculine voice sounded from the other side of the line and Tiana swallowed;

''Hi, it's me, Tiana… it's been a while. ''

''Oh my Tiana, how are you? Never thought you would call me, I'm stunned! ''

Liam remarked laughing a little;

''I just thought I should check up on you, how have you been? ''

''Oh, I've been doing great, and you? ''

''Nice… '' She paused; contemplating her choice, there was no harm in trying, right?

''Uhm, are you free tomorrow, do you want to hang out? ''

Tiana's eyes shut as she spoke the words, her lips thinning as her ears waited to hear his reply.

"' Yes, I'm free. What time? I'll come to get you. ''

Tiana heaved a relieved sigh;

''By 6 pm, is that okay?''

''Yeah, sure, I'll pick you from your house. ''

''Alright, see you tomorrow then, ''

''Yeah, you too ''

A cheery laughter escaped Liam's lips as the call ended. He had been waiting for her call since that day, but he didn't want to push it, although the chances that she would call back were very thin, he still had hope. He was so shocked when he heard her voice over the phone. He wondered what would have made her seek him out, but then, he was ready to listen to whatever she had to say.

…

The next day after work, Tiana went home straight and took her shower, and dressed up properly, getting ready to go out with Liam.

She made sure not to look too sophisticated since he already had a girlfriend, she didn't want to seduce another woman's man, she just wanted to talk to someone.

Tiana breathed out as she stared at her reflection on the mirror for the last time before stepping outside.

Liam was leaning on the car door and when he saw her approach, a bright smile washed his lips.

She was wearing a nice tank top over a skirt and sneakers, she packed her hair up in a ponytail and there was no makeup on her face but she looked incredibly sexy.

As Liam watched her approach, he wondered how blind Nicklaus was to let such a beauty go; maybe he just had terrible tastes in women.

''Hi… ''

Tiana smiled when she reached where he was standing; truth be told Liam was gorgeous, very handsome, and he had a great smile, but he was not as handsome as…

Okay stop right there, Tiana cautioned her mind before it would begin the comparison between him and Nicklaus; the last thing she wanted to do now was to compare them.

''You look great; ''

Liam commented on her dressing and Tiana smiled; she didn't know if she actually looked great or he was just saying out of courtesy.

''You don't look bad either. '' She wasn't sure but why was did it feel like Liam wore clothes matching his car?

Today, he wore a sky blue shirt over a white trouser and red shoes, with black goggles; and his car, maybe a Maserati, she wasn't sure, was blue with some white and red.

Maybe she was just imagining it, but him standing beside the car, it looked like he was posing for a shoot.

''Alright, let's get going now. '' He smiled as she opened the car door for her to get in, and then closed it behind her.

"Do you have any place you want to go to. '' Liam asked as he started the car, Tiana shook her head,

''No, anywhere is fine. ''

She smiled;

''You look really great, anything new? ''

Liam asked; she looked a little leaner and brighter; maybe she had been doing intensive workout sessions.

''Uh, kinda, I signed with Jo' Lapel Agency, so I have been taking extra care, ever since. ''

Liam's eyes widened;

''Really? Wow! That's great! I'm not surprised though, you are very beautiful. ''

Tiana smiled; she didn't know if her beauty had been doing her more harm than good.

Liam stretched out his hand as he helped Tiana step out of the car; her eyes lifted to the venue.

''An amusement park? '' A light chuckle escaped her lips as her eyes looked around her surroundings;

''Well, although you tried hard to hide it, you looked really moody, so I thought this place would lighten your mood.''

Tiana smiled at him;

He really knew how to read expressions because she did her best not to look sad.

''… so the thing is, his new girlfriend is my friend now in the company and… and she's so pretty. She's prettier than me in all ramifications. I wished he had ended up with an ugly person, so maybe I would feel relieved, but no, this woman is stunning, I can't even compare.

That is not even the worst part; the worst part is that she is nice to me. She likes me a lot and I liked her too, I feel so bad right now because I can't bring myself to hate her. And the fact that I can't even hate her rips me apart. I'll see her every day and remember him every day, yet I can't even hate, I don't know why all this is happening to me. There are over a million women in the world, why must it be her? Why!''

Tiana cried, wiping her eyes with her handkerchief. She couldn't control herself now she was talking about it for the very first time. Tiana felt more open to Liam, maybe because he was a stranger and didn't know any of the persons involved;
