Liza's POV

I wake up and see that David isn't here. Oh no, he's been acting really weird lately. I hope he's okay. I don't know what I'd do if anything happened to him. I get up and look around for him and see that he left a note. He's gone out to get Orange Juice, but I just got some more, how could it be gone already? I open the fridge and see an unopened carton of Orange Juice. The note said he'd be back in 20, but I'm not sure when he wrote it, so I'll wait 20 minutes from now and if he's not back then I'll call him.

David's POV

I'm so glad that Heath didn't actually mean that. It makes me feel a lot better, but the feeling still isn't completely gone. I still can't forget about what he said. I've been gone for like an hour and I'm worried that Liza will know I wasn't actually getting Orange Juice. I'm in my car, on my way to Liza's place, when my phone rings. Uh oh, it's Liza.

David(voice shaking, nervous): Um, hey... babe. What... what's up?

Liza: David, where are you?! You've been gone all morning and I know you're not getting Orange Juice because we just got some. What's up with you? You've been acting so... weird lately.

Now I'm panicking. I don't want Liza to be mad, but I still can't tell her the truth. It's too soon. What am I going to say?!

David: Um... well I wanted to pick up a surprise for you, but they didn't have it so now I'm on my way back.

Liza: Oh well, what was this surprise supposed to be?

David: um... I was going to pick up some Chipotle, but they were closed.

Liza: David, do you think I'm stupid? Why would you being going out to get Chipotle at 7 in the morning? And Chipotle is not closed! David tell me the truth, please.

She sounded hurt, I didn't want to hurt. I didn't want anyone to hurt. I needed to tell her the truth. But not like this, she's needs to hear it in person, face-to-face.

David: Ok Liza. I'll tell you. But I need to say it in person. Please, just trust me ok?

Liza: Fine, just hurry up and get here. I don't want to be mad at you, but I don't like being lied to.

David: Yea, I know I'm sorry.

I said goodbye and hung up. I spent the whole rest of the trip planning what I would say to Liza when I saw her. After a few minutes I pulled up to her place and climbed out of the car. I climbed the stairs and made it up to her apartment and let myself in. She was sitting on the couch on her phone when I came in.

David: Um, hey Liza... so you wanna talk now.

Liza: Yea, ok.

I let it all out. I told her everything. She seemed shocked.

David: So I thought that you wanted a better boyfriend. I thought I wasn't enough. Is it true? Are you just dating me out of... out of pity?

I was sobbing at this point. Dammit! I told myself that I'd be strong for Liza but I had failed. Liza looked up at me, she seemed genuinely surprised.

Liza: David, how could you even think that. I love you. You are he best boyfriend i could have and I adore everything about you.

She wrapped her arms around me and I hugged her back holding the back of her head in one hand. I kissed her on the forehead. I loved her too, I loved her too much to lose her and I couldn't believe I had forgotten that.

David: I love you too Liza.

She looked up at me. She was grinning at me with her beautiful smile and I leaned in and kissed her. She loved me, and I loved her. That's all that mattered, no matter what anyone else said, sober or not.
