Never Let me Go(Robert Downey jr Fanfiction)

No more hiding

After Liza and I finished unpacking. We both left the house to go for a stroll in the park. I had my arm hung over her shoulder. Her fingers interlaced with mine. We talked as we walked on the pathway. "I'm glad we took this walk. I feel a little relaxed." sighed Liza smiling. "Man, how I've missed hanging out with you." I replied. "I've missed it too. You know what we should do? We should go to Bullfrog Lake." I chuckled remenacing over the times she and I camped out there. "I miss that place. Such wonderful memories." I said. "I know right?! Roasting marshmellows on the fire and swiming in the lake." exclaimed Liza. "Okay, we can go this weekend."
She jumped for joy giving me a tight hug. "You're the best!" she said smiling at me. "No you are." I mentioned placing a kiss on her cheek. Liza soon paused changing her expression.

I followed her glance to see Hannah standing there with arms folded in front of her chest. I could see my parents in the distance as they stop walking. I was speechless. This is the first time Hannah has seen Liza face to face. "Ugh, hey honey. What a pleasant suprise." I greeted sheepishly. "I wish I could say the same." spat Hannah.

She turned her attention to Liza. Eyes filled with anger. I can tell Liza is confused as she held on to me tight. "You must be Liza? I have been dying to meet you." continued Hannah smiling half heartedly. "Um, yeah. Robert's told me so much about you." answered Liza nervously. "I'm sure he has." "Sweety can we talk in private please?" I asked taking Hannah by the arm. She yanked it away and glared at me. "Don't "sweety" me you bastard!" she barked. Liza shoves Hannah in defense. "Hey, don't talk to him like that!" she snapped in raged. "He is my fiancé and I can talk to him how ever I fucking please!" "Not while I'm standing here!"

I pull Liza back just as she was about to get in Hannah's face. "I don't understand why you're getting mad. There's nothing going on between us!" I yelled. "Bullshit, Robert! I see how you are with her." she replied. "We're friends! That's how its always been between us!" "No. You're in love with her. Admit it!" I looked away refusing to respond. I was afraid if I did admit then Liza wouldn't feel the same. "I don't have to admit anything." I answered. "Nice. That is exactly what I wanted to hear. How about you take that engagement ring and give it to her. It is so fucking obvious you love this junkie more than me."

Hannah gets in Liza's face. "I hope you're happy! This is all your fault!" she yelled. "Hannah, don't blame her! It's my problem not hers." I snapped. "Go to hell! Both of you can just go to hell!" I watched her storm off toward my parents. They look at me disappointed and followed her. I glanced at Liza who appeared upset. "You should go after her." she said half heartedly. "Why bother? She never wanted to understand." I sighed.

I felt Liza shove me in anger. "What is with you?! Can't you see that I just ruined her chances of being with you?!" "It's not your fault." "In a way I feel it is. My bullshit is what's keeping you from being happy!" "I'm happier when I'm with you." "Tell me Robert. Are you in love with me?! Don't try to lie because I can tell when you are!" I looked into her eyes and sighed. Should I even tell her? I'm so afraid she won't feel the same. In my mind, I think she loves me too. Yet, with Liza it's hard to tell. She was so good at hiding her true feelings.

I cupped my hands around her face. I gazed deep into those beautiful eyes she had. "Yes. After all of these years. I am madly in love with you." I whispered. Her eyes widen as she backed away from me. Tears formed in her eyes. I wanted her to say something. "Liza, ever since that night we made love in junior year. I never expected to feel these kinds of emotions. I can't keep hiding it. I was so afraid you wouldn't feel the same." I continued with tears in my eyes. I felt a weight lifted off me. "I don't love you like that Robert. I'm sorry if I ever led into believing that. You and Hannah belong together." she cried.

My heart sank to the pit of my stomach. What she said hurt me. "Go after her! Get married and enjoy your happiness. I'm sick of being the one to keep you from it!" Liza storms off running. "Liza wait!" I shouted going after her. She was way ahead of me and I tried to keep up. She crossed the street while on coming traffic was flying by. I stood scared out of my mind as she dodged ever car. She then disappears and I swear out loud. I walked back to the park and over to my car. I drive back to the house to see if she was there. Nope.

I laid down on my bed. I feel so stupid right now. Even though Liza doesn't love me back. I can try and get her there. Her kissing me back gave it away for me. It lets me know she's hiding for the sake of Hannah. I'm done with her. I know I'm wrong for hurting her like this. I can't hide it no more. It wouldn't be fair. Where could Liza have gone? I'm afraid she's doing drugs again. Damnit!

Four hours past and Liza was still a no show. I decided to go searching for her. I pulled up to her old apartment complex. There were people outside partying. I see Liza come out drunk off her ass. I walked up to the crowd and over to Liza. "It's time to go Liza." I said taking her by the arm. "Get your fucking hands off me! I'll go when I want to go!" she yelled in anger. "You're going home now! The party's over!" A man step up to me.

He was at least six feet and built. I stood my ground knowing if he and I fought he could break me in half. "Hey, pal. If the lady wants to stay. Then she stays." said the man. "Why don't you mind your own business pal?" I snapped. He then grabs me by the collar nearly lifting me off the ground. "I suggest you get lost. Before I beat you to bloody pool." "Fuck you!" I felt his strong punch hit my jaw. I fell to the ground. I get back up and started swinging. Didn't seem to effect him cause I ended up on the ground again. "Stop it! Leave him alone!" shouted Liza tugging on the man's shirt.

I laid there in pain trying to get up. Liza helps me off the ground. She walked me to the car. I get in the passenger side. Even though she's high and drunk she drove us home. We went into the house she takes me to my room. I felt onto the bed. Man, I'm hurting. She comes back into the room with a wet towel. She wiped the blood from my lip and forehead. I wanted to be angry with her. I just can't bring myself to do so.

Liza sighed to herself as she looked at me. It's a complete silence in between us both. "I'm sorry." she whispered sadly. "What are sorry for? The drugs or me having my ass handed to me by that fucking prick?" I asked. She turned from me ashamed. "Both." "I'm more disappointed that you relapsed. I would take a bullet for you. That's how much I love you." "Stop talking like that!" "Why?! Liza, I love you with all my heart. I worry about you more than I do for myself." She gets up from the bed but, I pulled her back.

I bring her head close to my face gazing deep into those green eyes of hers. "You may not feel the same about me. Either way, I will keep loving you and pray that one day. You'll feel the same. I can't see myself with anyone else but, you." I said softly to her. Her eyes begin to water. I kissed her lips gently. Her finger glided down my cheek. I deep our kiss pulling her closer to me. If she didn't love me why didn't she back away. I felt her tongue caress mine. I didn't want this to end.

I pulled back placing a kiss on her forehead. "I love you, Liza." I whispered against her lips. She gets up from the bed and walks out the room. I laid back smiling to myself. I closed my eyes replaying our kiss. Her lips were soft and sweet to the taste. I'm crazy about her. Later in the night I heard my door open. I can feel the bed move a little. I laid there acting like I didn't notice. I glanced over to see Liza next me. I rolled over wrapping my arms around her. She hugged me back. I smiled giving her a kiss on the top of her head. No matter what I can't give up on her.
