Ups & Downs

Seven

[Liza's POV]
I park across the road from Starbucks. I see him next to his car, I smile. I quietly get out of Gabbies car and text him.
L: Hey.
D: Hey wud?
L: Not much.
D: when are you coming to LA??
L: Idk. You really miss me don't you?
D: Yes. I miss you okay?
L: I miss you too.
L: Do you ever look up from your phone?
D: what?

I lean on Gabbies car and call him, he picks up his phone.
"What do you mean 'do I ever look up from my phone'?" He laughs a little.
"Turn around stupid" I hang up and yell. He turns around and his face lights up. He runs over to me and hugs me.
"Dude Ive only been gone a week!" I laugh.
"I know but I missed you" he smiles.
"I missed you too" I look up him and smiled. We walk into Starbucks and order our coffees.

We start walking on the street, we talked for ages. I couldn't help looking at him the whole time, Gabbie was right.

I do like David Dobrik.

"Would you move to Los Angeles?"
"Im thinking about it, I really want to" I smile.
"Why don't you move in with Gabbie?"
"I was thinking that too, at least then we would see each other more" I look at my feet and smile. We get back to our cars.
"See you tomorrow?" I open the car door.
"Defiantly" he smiles.
"Bye Dobrik" I laugh.
"See ya Koshy" he drives away and I sigh.

I don't like David. I love him.

[Gabbie's POV]
I was on the couch watching TV when I hear the front door open.
"Gabbieeeeeee" Liza whines and flops next to me.
"How'd it go?" I smile and look at her.
"I think Im in love Gabbie" She looks at the ceiling and sighs.
"Told you" I smirk.
"I like him a lot. I think Im in love again"
"Again?"
[Liza's POV - Flashback]
I sit down in the cafeteria, I open my backpack and dig out my lunch, I accidentally prick my finger on my razor. I don't care. I open my novel and lean back on the cold plaster wall, I noticed someone sit in front of me.
"Hello?" I don't look up from my book, I had no idea who was in front of me.
"Hey Liza" I raise one eyebrow and shut my book.
"Oh hey Josh" I put my novel in my bag. I become nervous, Jack has been my crush since forever, why is he talking to me?
"What are you reading?"
"The same as you should be, the Shakespeare texts?" I laugh a bit.
"Oh.."
"So..what are you doing here?"
"I just wanted to talk" I didn't believe him.
"Did Keith or Alena set you up to this?" I look around and see them both pointing and laughing.
"N-no.."
"Jack. Don't lie to me. They did, like hell you'd talk to me Im not popular or pretty, your all just doing it for entertainment. I cant believe I liked someone like you" I say holding back tears. I pick up my bag and push past everyone.
"Liza!" I hear from behind.
"What?" I turn around and see him running after me.
"You liked me?"
"Yes okay? I had a crush on you but that all changed just then"
"Why do you like me?"
"I don't know! But Im not loved  by anyone. Whats the point? You won't remember me. No one will, I'll be gone in a few days"
"What do you mean?"
"You'll won't see me ever again. I'll be dead" I feel a tear run down my face, I turn to walk away but he still calls my name.
"Liza wait!"
"WHAT?"
"I-I'm sure someone likes you.."
"No they don't Jack. Its fake. Everyone in this school is fake. Goodbye" I feel more tears run down my face.
[Jack's POV]

But I love you Liza.

[Gabbie's POV - End of flashback]

"Liza. What if he loved you?" She looks at me, she has tears in her eyes.
"I don't know Gabbie. I-I wasn't loved, what if David doesn't like me back?" I hug her.
"Im sure he does Liza" I smile. She wipes her tears away.
"I'll see you in the morning" she walks to her room. I pull out my phone. I text David.
G: Hey.
D: Hey.
G: What do you think of Liza?
D: I really like her.
G: like or love her ;)
D: Promise not to say anything?
G: Yes.
D: I really like Liza a lot, I think I love her. Shes so perfect.
G: Awe Davey has feelings for little Liza! ;)
D: Shut up! I gtg talk later, bye.
G: Bye.
I knew it!
[Liza's POV]
No one will ever love me. I will never be loved, Ill be forever alone, whats the point?

I wiped more tears off my face, I look into the bathroom and see it, a sharp razor on the sink. What if Jack did love me? I cant do this.
