Ups & Downs

Nine

[Liza's POV]

"David I need to tell you something"
"So do I liza" he smiles.
"Liza.. I-" David gets cut off by his phone ringing. He rolls his eyes and answers.
"Hello?" He sighs.
"Oh..okay. We'll be over soon. Bye" he looks sad.
"Whats wrong?" He starts the car.
"Remember Scotty?" I nod. 
"He's been in an accident, he's in the hospital"
"Is he okay?"
"Im not sure, Kristen didn't say much"
"Who's Kristen?"
"His girlfriend" we park and run to the entrance.
"We're l-looking for Scott Sire" David says catching his breath.
"Room 397" we thank her and find his room. I see a girl crying, shes taller than me, she has light brown hair with blond highlights.
"Kristen?" I ask and she looks at me and nods. I hug her and David does too.
"What happened?" We stand outside his room.
"I-I don't know exactly but he looked different this morning.."
"What do you mean?" I ask.
"He looked...unhappy, he's been drinking a lot these past few days.." She glances over at him through the small window.
"Suicide.." I mumble.
"What?" She has tears in his eyes.
"Kristen.. he might have wanted to d-"
"Oh God... your right" she starts crying more, I hold her.
"Who here is related to Scott?"
"I'm h-his girlfriend"
"He's awake now, I'll check back later" the nurse says and walks away, Kristen walks inside slowly.
"How do you know Liza?" David says quietly.
"David..there's still things you don't know about me..I have more secrets..I-I.." I start crying, he holds me.

After David and I both saw Scott, I got Kristen's number and I checked my phone, it was 10:48 pm. We started drive back to Gabbie's apartment in silence.
"Wait.." I say.
"Can I just stay with you tonight? Its getting late a-" he cuts me off.
"Its fine Liza" He smiles.
"What did you want to tell me earlier?" I blush slightly.
"Well I was going to tell you.. that I really like you and I think your really pretty" I laugh a little.
"What? Why are you laughing?" He laughs.
"Because that was so cliche and cheesy!"
"I know I'm grate!" We both laugh.
"Then what were you gonna tell me?" He smirks.
"The same thing.." I blush harder.
"What? That Im pretty?" He laughs again.
"No! That I really like you.." I say and he grins and we stop at a red light.
"Would you go out with me?" He says and my heart skips a beat.
"Only if we.. get frozen yoghurt!" He rolls his eyes and laughs.
"Fine" we park in front of a frozen yoghurt place and get out the car.
"What are you gonna get?" We look at each flavour.
"I'm thinking.. coconut and vanilla. You?" I say and pick up a cup for both of us.
"I'm getting mango and cheesecake" he smiles.
"Stange but okay" he rolls his eyes and laughs with me. We pay and go back into the car.
"So. Will you go out with me?"
"Yes. I will David" I giggle. I check my phone and its 11:58 pm. We drive back to his apartment.
_
"Here" he hands me a spare pair of shorts and a shirt.
"Thanks" I smile and sit on the edge of his bed.
"I have to go to Houston soon.."
"Why?"
"I have to move out of my apartment" I smile slightly and he does too.
"What if I help you?"
"You'd come to Houston with me?" He nods.
"Goodnight" I smile.
"Night" I switch off the light and lie next to him.
~
I wake up and check my phone, there were 10 missed calls from Gabbie and at least one million text messages.
I wake up David.
"David.. wake up" I nudge him.
"Five more minutes" he mumbles.
"Don't you have to post today? its Wednesday"
"You do too" he mumbles again.
"Fine five more minutes" I get out of bed and call Gabbie.
"Liza! Where are you?!"
"With David"
"You didn't come home last night - wait did yo-"
"NO! We didn't but we are together now" I laugh a little.
"YES I KNEW IT!" She yells.
"I'll text you later.. see ya!"
"Bye!" I hang up and see David still asleep.I crawl up next to him and put my chin on his chest.
"David its been exactly five minutes"
"Fine" he mumbles and yawns. He sits up slowly and smiles.
"Come on we have to edit" I pull his arm and he groans.
"I'll get food?"
"Sounds good to me" He laughs and I have a shower. I get out and do my hair and makeup, I put on a simple outfit and open the front door.
"What do you want from Chipotle?"
"Just a burrito bowl"
"Okay see you soon" I shut the door behind me and walk to Davids car.
_
I pull into the apartment car park and start walking up the stairs, I hear someone talking.
"Don't hurt her Dobrik" Gabbie?
"I won't! I love her too much"
"If she comes running to me because you've done something stupid I wi-"
"Gabbie I know already! Just go before she gets back" I hear her coming so I go into the elevator, I press his floor number. I step out of the elevator and see him on his phone.
"David?" He jumps a little.
"Heyyy Liza"
"Why was Gabbie here?"
"She was looking for you?"
"But I called her this morning" we start walking back to his apartment.
"She said she was looking for you"
"But I heard her say -"
"She was being protective, don't worry" He smiles at me slightly and we walk inside. We sit down eat.
_
"Bye! Love you" I say to David and shut the car door, I unlock Gabbies door. 
"Gab-"
"Liza!" She hugs me. weird..
"Why were you at Davids apartment?"
"When?"
"This morning.. David said you were looking for me?" I sit on the couch. 
"Oh I was looking for you" she grins.
"Why?"
"Don't worry about it! Anyway what do you want to do?"
"Um I don't know? What if we catch up with the group?"
"Sure! I'll see who's free"
"Okay?" Why is she acting weird?
"Everyone's free!" She says high pitched.
"Okay? Ask them if they wanna go to the mall" she nods and texts rapidly.
"They're down" she grins.
"Okay lets go" she was way to happy for some reason.
_
We get to the mall and everyone is there, except David.
"Gabbie who's this?"
"Oh these are my friends Carly and Erin!" They wave and I smile.
"Hey Kristen!" I say and we hug.
"Gabbie.." I pull her aside as we walk into the food court.
"Ya?"
"Where's David?"
"I texted him. He said he didn't want to come" Her tune changes. What the hell is happening?
I pull out my phone and call him.
"Im sorry but the person you are trying to reach is not available right now, please leave a message" I hang up and stare at my phone, something's going on...
