《Mr. CEO gets what he wants》Chapter 12

Trinity POV
I feel so cold. Almost feels like I'm in the snow without a jacket. I slowly open my eyes only to be greeted by the sunshine directly in my eyes. I groan at the contact and turn my face. I look down to see I've fallen asleep the couch without a blanket. That explains the cold.
I sit up from the couch and stretch my stiff limb, looking over at the clock to see its 8 am. When Nathan had left, I obviously scarfed down half the food he bought and thought. Thought about his words, my feelings, everything. I don't want to believe it but my feelings for Nathan are still strong, as strong as the moment we had begun going out.
Yes, even only been together barely 6 months but when you meet that person, you know. Time doesn't matter, it doesn't limit things, it just passes but without being noticed.
Suddenly I hear a knock on my door. I draw my brows together, confused. Tina would never wake up this early on the weekend, Nathan would call and I know he isn't awake at this hour. So who could it be?
I slowly walk to the door and pick my cell phone up, preparing to dial 911. I unlock the door and open it to see Liam.
"What? How are you here?" He doesn't reply, only gives me a large hug. I hug back and hide my head in his neck.
"I know its early in the morning but I needed to see you. A week without you is too much." His words make my heart melt and regret to seep in. How am I not so in love with him.
I pull away from the hug and kiss his lips. He responds immediately, instantly slipping his tongue into my mouth. I moan as he does that and he places his hands on my waist and uses his leg to slam the door shut. He slowly begins to pull away and open his eyes.
"You look beautiful." I blush at his words and kiss his cheek, stepping out of his hold.
"Thank you. You're lucky I slept early last night after we finished with the ultrasound, I was exhausted and it was only 12 pm!"
"Who is they exactly?"
Why do I keep forgetting to mention Nathan outings to Liam?
"Yesterday, Nathan accompanied me. I thought it'll be a good idea to bring him along, he deserved to see them."
Liam's face instantly changes to fury, I can see his eyes shift from good to bad. I've never seen him like this ever, so it makes me a little nervous. I stop looking at his face and turn to grab myself a glass of water.
Before I could make it to the kitchen, Liams hands clasps around my wrist, jerking me to him roughly.
"What makes you think you can just walk away from the conversation." His voice is low.
I want to answer back and tell him I didn't know this conversation was still going because it is unnecessary but I decide against it.
"Answer me!" He says sharply, making me flinch.
"I'm sorry." My voice trembles, I don't want to seem weak but he's scaring me. His hold tightens on my wrist and I wince.
He sees my reaction and instantly let's go and backs away. "I'm sorry, Trinity. I didn't mean to. It was a mistake. Just forgot to take my medication. I..." His voice trails, "I'm going to head out, I'll see you later. I just need to cool off. I'm sorry."

I can't reply to his words because he's already out of the door. I'm stood in the middle of the living room, rubbing my wrists, and confused. Never had Liam ever been this way, especially to me. But its because he has taken his medication when we're together, that's why he's like this now. I choose to stick to that because my mind begins to wander to places that it shouldn't.
I know Liam wouldn't do anything to provoke his health, especially when it comes to me. He has said that so many times. Unless he was lying. Just like I am to him. But his end is different. There is a chance he stopped taking his medication or a mix of other drugs in his system.
I know he wouldn't do that, though. He wouldn't.
Nathan POV
I've looked over the pictures multiple times that I've practically memorized them. That is defiantly Liam King and an unknown man, that I'm keeping an eye on.
I called a PI that I had met before due to an old case and asked him to look into the situation. I needed to get more than this, something that once is shown to the public, they wouldn't think twice about him being innocent.Especially Trinity.
Speaking of, I should probably call her. See how she's doing after yesterday. I didn't mean to just spit all those words to her, but they've been cooped up in my mind for months and I needed to confront her about.
I find her number and dial the number. She replies almost instantly.
"Hello." Her voice is low and disoriented, which sends alarms through my mind. What if Liam had done something to her?
"Trinity, are you alright? You don't good."
"Yes, I-I am. Why are you asking?"
"Did something happen?"
She stays silent, I hear her mumble words but I can't comprehend. "Trinity, I'm coming over."
"No!" She instantly says loudly, "I'll come to you. Please."
"Are you sure? Because I'll be there in 15 minutes tops."
"I'm positive. Please, just don't come here?"
I'm about to ask her more questions but she hangs up. I'm so tempted to go over there and see what the matter but she told me not to. What if something happens? I would never forgive myself.
I'm having an internal battle with myself. I need to trust her words. If she isn't here for half an hour, I'm going to her.
———
20 minutes later I hear the doorbell go, she's here. I rush downstairs and pull the door open before she can even step in, I hug her.
She is obviously shocked by my actions because she's stiff in my arms. I pull away and analyze her, making sure everything is okay. Nothing seems to catch my eye.
"Come inside." My voice is gentle as I say the words. She doesn't reply, just silently steps in.
"Can you please tell me what's going on?"
"Nathan, it was nothing. I promise. I'm just being dramatic."
I roll my eyes at her words. "We're talking about you here Trinity. When you act a certain way, it's for a reason. So cut the shit and tell me what happened."
She just turns and walks to the living room and sits on the couch, making herself comfortable."You want to know what happened, right? So, sit your ass and let me explain."
I raise an eyebrow at her sudden change in attitude. If this wasn't a serious situation, I would comment on how hot she looks when she's feisty. Instead, I listen to her words and tell her to begin.

"Liam came home this morning. Decided to surprise me because he had a few days off. When he came in, I had mentioned I went to the ultrasound with you and I forgot to mention it to him. Which I seem to be doing often these days. He suddenly got angry; I've never seen him this way. Ever. So turned away from him and he grabbed me by my wrist," she lifts up her sleeve, showing a red mark, which riles me up.
"He held his grip for a few seconds before he snapped from his trance. He kept on apologizing and telling me he had taken his medication. Something tells me I shouldn't but I do believe him. He would do anything to jeopardize his health, I know him. I don't want to trigger hi like that anymore, I think theist option is for us to stop seeing each other.
"It was so stupid to come here now, but I needed to tell you face to face. All contact we have is over the phone about the kids, that's all. I don't want to get him angry."
She quickly gets up and moves to the door. Before she can leave, I grab her arm slowly and turn her to me. "Trinity, you can be with someone who doesn't realize he's doing something wrong until it happens. You can't expect me to stay away from me, especially after what he did. What if he does something worse? I won't be able to protect you!"
"He wouldn't ever do anything to me! I know him! It was a mistake, we all make mistakes. Please just listen to me!"
"Why? Tell me why? What difference is it going to make, you know I won't listen. You know that because I'm a part of your life now, he'll always be like that!"
"So be the better person and listen to what I ask! If you love me then you'll do what I say. Stay away, at least until I talk to him. You can text me, but thats as far as our goes. I cant trigger this again. Not when he's unstable!"
"With what?"
"Did you really ask that question? Do you not read tabloids, his interviews? Liam has bipolar disorder. He should stay away from things that trigger the mood swings. Yes, medication helps but putting him under pressure will make things worse."
"Thats not all, Trinity. You're doing this because your scared of what he can do. Please just stay here, he's not safe to be around, especially now!"
"What do you know?" He voice is full fury, "Just because he wasn't taken his prescription, doesn't mean he's dangerous. It's common to forget."
"You didn't get it, he-" I stop myself from continuing, I need to make sure before I show things like this. If this isn't for sure she'll never forgive me.
"What?" I shouldn't be upsetting her, she's pregnant. This isn't good for any of them.
"I can't tell you but please just trust me. He isn't safe to be around, now."
"Just because he has something you want, doesn't mean you've got to ruin everything for the middleman, Just stay away, until I tell you to."
She doesn't wait for my response, just leaves, slamming the door shut behind her. I groan in frustration, kicking the small table thats beside the door. Why is she so fucking stubborn? She should just trust me.
I don't blame her if she doesn't. The last time she did, I made her believe I cheated. But it was for the best. Seeing her again, though, made me want to be part of her life, our kids' lives. I need to prove to her that Liam is a dumb fuck.
I quickly dial the PI's number toes if he has anything new, I need news at this current moment.

Trinity POV
That stupid son of a bitch. He thinks he can walk up into my life again and I would accept his apology. He's wrong about that.
I'm at my apartment now, thinking about Nathans words about Liam. He was just saying those things to piss me off. They aren't true. Liam just needs a little help, someone to be there for him. I know Nathan makes Liam angry, so being away from him is the best option.
It just me to tell him that but I needed to do what's right for Liam. At least until he's all better and we can sit down to have an actual conversation.
My phone begins to ring. I think its Nathan, calling me to talk more about what happened an hour ago but its Liam instead.
"Liam. Are you okay? You haven't been answering my calls."
"I'm fine. I promise, I just needed to clear my head thats all."
"Where are you?"
"Thats actually what I wanted to tell you. I'll send you an address and I need you to come to it ASAP. I'm fine, I just need to show you something."
"Okay?" He says bye and hangs up.
I look at my messages to see that he sent an address to a location where I've never been before. All I know is that its a nice neighborhood.
I go back downstairs to my car and drive towards the location. Within half an hour, I arrive at a beautiful white house and Liam standing in from.
I step out fo the car and instantly ask, "Whose house is this?"
"Ours."
I'm taken back by his words and my eyes widen in shock. "What?"
"You heard me right. I was looking into this house for over a month now. Today I officially signed the lease. This is an apology slash a proposal?"
"For?"
"Moving in with me. I know we've been together for only 3 months, going on 4 but I love you so much that every time I come home to my apartment, it feels empty. It's missing your company. I get that it's a huge step but we can take it one day at a time. Its also adds up as an apology for what I did to you. You know I would never purposely do it. Its just- work and all its getting to me and Nathan being back into your life scared me. It scared me to lose you and me-"
I shut him up by lacing my hand on his mouth. "I know you would never do anything to purposely hurt me. I'm not saying I forgive your actions because what you did to me scared me so much. But I know at that moment that wasn't you. And you don't have to worry and Nathan, I've told him to fuck off. Not completely but we need to have a conversation about this before adding him to the equation."
He suddenly kisses me. I kiss back without a second thought placing my hands around his neck. The kiss pours out the real Liam King, not the one at the apartment.
He pulls back, placing a kiss on my cheek. "You ready to see the inside?"
I nod, giving him a smile.
