Everything's not what it seems

Harvey's POV
I felt so bad leaving Liv when she was upset, but Ray needed me. There had been a robbery and I needed to go. Once we had stopped it I went on my phone and saw a message off Liv. It said this: hey Harv, I had to go for my family dinner. I'll be able to FaceTime after 8 as I have to walk Penny at 7. I hope you can FaceTime. 143 xx

I replied back saying I'd FaceTime her later. It was about 6, when I got home so I had 2 hours until I could call Liv. I sat with Max and we thinking of ways we could try and cheer Liv up. We couldn't really think of anything so we decided just to see how she was on call. As soon as it hit 8 I called Liv. "Hey Harv, and Max." She sighed.

"Hey Liv, I'm guessing you're still not very happy?" I asked.

"No, I just really miss her." Liv said.

"I know you do, we all do." Max said.

"But you don't understand, I've known Daisy almost half of my life, I can't remember life without her, you only knew her a few weeks, a month at most!" Liv shouted, Max looked shocked. "I am so sorry Max, I don't know what just happened." Liv said apologetically.

"It's ok, you miss her, we don't know your pain, but we're all here for you." Max said.

"But that doesn't give me a reason to just shout at you like that, I had no reason to do that." Liv said.

"Liv it's fine honestly, you've not upset me, look I've completely fine." Max said and punched me in the balls.

"I'm not." I groaned, hunched over in pain as Liv laughed.

"Hey, there's that laugh we know and love." Max laughed.

"We could have made her laugh another way." I glared at Max. "So, what were you doing before I called?" I asked her.

"Well, I got home from walking Penny at about 20 to, so I just watched your old YouTube videos, and then listened to No One Else, Shy Girl and finally Gold." She said. I looked at Max and nodded, he ran into his room to get his guitar. "Where's he gone?" She asked.

"To get his guitar." I said as Max came in strumming it.

"Which one?" Max asked me, and I whispered 'mashup' to him. He nodded and began to strum 4 chords.

"Ain't another man richer, they got coins in their hands. But I, I, I got you. Yeah their diamonds may glimmer, but they don't understand. That I, I, I got you and it feels like gold. It's the only thing I know. No one else, no one else, is worth the chase. No one else, no one else I'd rather face the world, when it's a world with you. There's no one else, no one. Believe it or not, I watch you when you walk in, believe it or not, I hear you when you're talking. She got me quiet like a tiger, oh there ain't nothing like a shy girl." Me and Max sung, a smile gradually growing on Livs face.

"Yay! We made you smile!" I grinned.

"You did." Liv said, still smiling.

"I don't think I've seen you smile so big since we met you." Max said, when I thought about it, he was right. Liv has smiled and laughed with us, but she's never smiled this big before.

"I don't think I've smiled so big since you were in hospital." Liv said. "That came out wrong, when you were in hospital, I lost my uncle, so I got a video message of Harvey, just ask Charlotte or Taome, I was smiling all day, not even Kayleigh annoying me could make me stop smiling.

"Well, you won't have to get video messages any more because we are literally down the road and one call away." I said.

"I'm only one call away, I'll be there to save the day. Superman got nothing on me, I'm only one call away." Max sung.

"Max, you have a girlfriend, you should probably sing that to her." I laughed.

"Yeah, you should be singing this to Liv, not me." Max laughed, I slapped him over the head and Liv blushed.

"So, how many videos do you have ready to upload?" Liv asked, changing the subject.

"So, we have 3 weeks worth of videos, because we didn't post one on Wednesday. We have the last 2 Come Dine With Me's and the q&a video, even if it was just a set up the fans will want it." I said, thinking about what's left.

"Can we please do an updated Egg Olympics?" Max asked.

"I bruise like a peach, no thank you." Liv laughed.

"Pleaseeeeeeeeee." Max begged.

"Noooooooooooo." Liv laughed. "Do you want me to end up in hospital again?"

"Yeah, let's not have that happen again. I was so worried, I knew you were going to be ok, but the thought of you struggling to breathe scared me so much." I answered honestly.

"I was so scared too, but having you there, I knew I was ok, and that I was safe." Liv said. "I would be looking you in the eyes as I said that, but it would look like I am looking both you and Max in the eyes." She laughed, so did me and Max.

Whilst we were talking Liv stopped when she heard a thud. "What was that?" I asked, my 'Kid Danger' instincts kicking in.

"Penny, how many times do I have to tell you? When you can't see my onsie or dressing gown, it means the door is shut." Liv laughed.

"Ok, that's the best thing I've heard all day." Max laughed.

"The thud or what Liv said?" I asked, hoping I knew Max's answer.

"The thud, it sounds like when we throw Tilly!" He laughed, yeah I thought wrong.

"It did, but I figured you would have found what Liv said funnier than the sound of a dog walking into a door." I laughed, and so did Liv.

"I can see when my brother, and friend are bullying me, and when I'm not wanted, so I'm going to leave. I shall wish you a final Merry Christmas of this year, and leave. Bye." Max said, smiling so we knew he was joking about the bullying and not wanting him here.

"Bye Max." Liv laughed.

"Bye Max." I said, Max waved and walked out of my room and into his. "Now that he's gone, do you want to go camping Tuesday until Wednesday? That way we go the day after Tom's birthday, and we get home the day before mine and Max's birthday. How does that sound?" I asked Liv.

"I love it, do you have a tent, because I don't." She laughed

"Yeah, we do. We have one for Camp Bestival, it holds 6 of us, so it will definitely hold us two." I said to her, and she smiled.

"So it's set, we're go camping on Tuesday, watch the sun set and star gaze?" Liv asked to confirm.

"Yep, and I can't wait." I said grinning.

"Me neither, this is literally a dream come true!" She grinned in response. "I mean, one day you're my idol, and the next you're moving in down the road to me. We become best friends, and now me and you are going out on my dream date."
