Daniel was walking past Liam's room when he heard Heather's name. He paused then turned to the door with furrowed eyebrows.
“So I won't be able to see you today?" Liam questioned.
“I have to be here for Kiara because she needs me. Besides, we are going back to our old apartment. I don't know why Kiara wants to leave this big mansion for such a small apartment but I'd go anywhere for her" Daniel placed his ear on the door and continued listening in on their conversation.
“Kiara has such a huge space in your heart, doesn't she? I hope I'll be able to get a little space in your heart. Is there hope for me?" Daniel Frowned at Liam's words. Was something really going on between them?
“Keep trying and maybe I'll create a space for you" Heather answered and Liam chuckled.
“Okay, princess. Do you still want to talk for a while? I've got nothing to do"
“I have to eat breakfast. I'll text you later?"
“Okay, goodbye princess" Daniel sighed but before he could walk away, Liam called out his name.
“I know you're there, Daniel. I can smell your scent" Daniel paused then turned to the door. Seconds later, Liam opened up with furrowed eyebrows.
“Can I know why you were listening in on my conversation with Heather?" Daniel shrugged.
“I don't think I have to explain myself to you" Liam sighed.
“I don't understand your new attitude with me. You have been shutting me down and we hardly even spend time with each other anymore. Do you have a problem with me? If you do, just say it" Daniel scoffed.
“And what makes you think I have a problem with you?" Liam shrugged.
“Because your behavior towards me has changed. Is this because of Heather?" Daniel frowned.
“What's that supposed to mean?"
“Your attitude with me now all started when Heather was staying at the warehouse with us. It's because of her, isn't it? You don't like that I'm spending time with her?" Daniel scoffed.
“And why should I care who she chooses to spend her time with? Heather and I have nothing together so she's free to be with whoever the fuck she wants and I could care less" Liam frowned.
“You don't have to be so harsh you know?" Daniel snorted.
“Why won't I be harsh when you keep assuming useless things? Do whatever the fuck you want with her, at least she's your problem now not mine" Daniel was about to walk away when he heard Heather's voice.
“Liam, you… you forgot to hang up" Daniel's eyes widened as he abruptly turned to the phone. Liam was just as shocked as he was.
“Oh I didn't…. I didn't know I'm sorry" Liam muttered and was about to cut the call but Daniel grabbed the phone from his hand.
“I thought you didn't care about what was going on?" Zane smiled.
“I don't but I'm in the mood for gossip" Daniel sighed.
“He's mad because Heather finally got to see his true colors" Daniel glared at him.
“You know for a fact that I didn't mean what I said" Liam scoffed.
“It doesn't matter if you meant it or not, what matters is that she heard you and I'm glad she did. Now she will finally get rid of those feelings she has for you" Daniel was about to punch Liam but Zane grabbed his arm and stopped him.
“Daniel calm down and you, Liam, he's your friend, why are you going for his girl?" Liam scoffed then slowly stood up from the ground.
“His girl? He abandoned his girl claiming he had fallen out of love for her so why is it a crime for me to go after her? I've always liked her, I liked her first and he knew that but he still went after her. I'm not mad though because they were mates but now that they're not, I'm getting her back and if you don't like that, that's your business not mine" Liam muttered making Daniel clenched his fist.
“Liam, you…" Zane began but Liam immediately shut him up.
“You are in no position to say anything, Zane because you're just like him. You both hurt the women you love and when another man tries to make them happy, you throw a fit" Zane was taken aback by Liam's outburst but before he could say anything, Liam walked out on them…
