Liza's POV
I go jump in my car and head to work .

Am I excited

No

Yes

I mean , Im excited to see David . I shouldn't be , but I am . I'm not excited to work though .

I rock up to work in a matter of minutes and sure enough davids waiting out front .

David - " heyyyyy , are you reading for work babe " .

Nudging me as he talks .

Liza - " sure am " .

I say as sarcastically as I can.

During work I find myself daydreaming .
Why am I falling for David again . Of course I still have hope , but in real life , hopes are dreams , and dreams are for dreaming .

I find myself snapping back to reality as David pushes me saying that our shifts over.

Liza - " oh , um did you want to come back to mine for a bit ? " . I'm sure he can hear the nerves in my voice .

David - " sure , babe " .

As he is driving I find myself thinking again .
I have known him for a day yet he is coming back to my house . Well what am I going to do , feelings are feelings .

Liza - " ah , take a right here and then it's the second on the left " .

David laughs to himself , while I roll my eyes.

We get up to the front door and I unlock it .

David - " am I gonna meet your parents " . He says laughing .

Liza - " actually its just me and my mum , and at the moment she's at work , where she normally is , so most of the its just me . "

I could tell he is uncomfortable .

Liza - "  look it can go home , I can tell your uncomfortable it's fine I don't open up to many people because they jus- ".

He stops me from rambling on and embraces me in a hug , I wrap my hands around his neck.
I sigh into his chest .

Liza - " sorry " .

David - " don't be , my father isn't with my family anymore either " .

We pull away from the hug . Honestly I wish it never ended .

Liza - " I can order some pizza if you want " .

David - " sure ".

He gives me one of those smiles I just can't get over .

I go up to my room to get out of this ugly work uniform and out on some comfy clothes .

I run back down stairs and see the pizza has arrived .

I get the plates out and set them down on the table . As we start eating our pizza a conversation starts.

David reaches his hands across the table to hold mine .
My heart starts to beat like crazy .

David - " so tell me something about yourself " .

Liza - " like what , what would you want to know about a girl like me ".

David - " why do you wear long sleeves shirts in the middle of summer , in fact why al year round. "

I start to panic at the thought of me telling him the answer and he leaves at that second .

Liza - " I have a depression disorder , and used to cut , I don't anymore don't worry about me , but most times scars tell a story people don't want to hear " .

As soon as I say this he squeezes my hands harder letting me know he is here for me.

David - " well , it's a story I'm willing to hear ".

Liza - " I might tell you another time " . I say letting out a weak smile . 

I look up at the clock and realize it's 10 pm already. And tomorrow is Saturday .

Liza - " hey , um you can stay the night if you want , I mean it's already so late and tomorrow is the weekend ".

David - " I would love to actually , I will sleep on the couch it's fine " .

Liza - " No , you can sleep with me if you want , I will just go get changed , if you feel more comfortable sleeping on an old couch go right ahead .

I go upstairs to get changed into pyjamas , I decide to wear a short sleeve top. I mean he told me he was here for me so I might as well feel comfortable .

I call David to tell him he could come upstairs .

I saw his eyes widen as he saw my scars .

Liza - " I mean it you can leave if you don't feel comfortable, I mean it " .

He sits in the bed and hugs me .

I turn around to him .

Liza - " David , don't play with my emotions " .

David looked at me with a confused look .

Liza -  " David I like you , I have ever since the first day of high school ok , I have never told anyone about my scars , sorry my feelings get in the way- ".

I realize while I'm saying this tears are running down my face. Dammit Liza .

I feel him pulling me down on the bed in a big bear hug .

Liza - " I'm so sorry ".

David - " no it's okay , don't be sorry , I don't care if I have talked to you only today , I have always knew who you were , and I must admit I kinda like you . A lot. ".

I cry into his chest while he is rubbing my back .

I realize sooner or later I'm going to tell him about everything , even if I can control it or not .

Soon enough I fall asleep in his arms . Something I never thought would happen.
