Is This Love or Lust?

Disclaimer: Grand Theft Auto is owned by Rockstar Games. I am just a fan.

Author's note: Hello, readers. I would like to discuss that I am starting a new story, especially after I had cancelled my story, "A Forbidden Romance." I had addressed everything surrounding that, like how I had not worked on it in quite some time and that I lost my heart for it. I also thanked all the readers for the love and support that I got for it. But the interest had worn off; though not completely as I am open to doing a revision of it.

In the meantime, I had also thought of another story surrounding Liz, who was a rather small character and was used as a booty call in GTA V. For some reason, I thought maybe I could touch on her and what she feels for Franklin (Who will play a big role).

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask in a review or in a PM. I hope you enjoy this.


For months now, Elisa MacAllen, who preferred to be called Liz, had been in a rather casually sexual relationship with Franklin Clinton.

One night, Franklin had picked her up from ULSA after she had just gotten out of an evening class that she was taking. A lot of the time, she would flirt and talk dirty to Franklin as he drove her home. She would also undo his pants a bit and start going down on him to rev him up for a night of hot passion.

Franklin pulled up in front of The Tahitian on Strawberry and Carson; he followed her to her apartment. Right when they walked through the door, the first thing she did was pull up his shirt while he went and kissed her on the lips and then moved towards her neck as he ran his hands all over her tan skin and stripped her of her clothes in the process.

Liz got Franklin all hard enough to put her face down there again and started sucking away. However, she cut it short as the look she gave him implied that she wanted him to lie in her bed and she crawled her naked body into the bed and mounted right on top of him.

"Come on, be a big boy!" she yelled as she started to ride him.

Franklin grabbed her by her breasts and squeezed and rubbed them together, while she moaned "Yeah! Yes!" loudly. But in the back of her mind, she had thought to herself, "Tell me you love me!"

She didn't say it aloud, though, as the thought just sprung to her mind. She felt some confusion in the middle of having sex with Franklin but did her best to hide that feeling. After a while, the two finished their sexual session and then fell asleep on Liz's bed.

It was now 7 AM and Franklin woke up to check his phone. Liz lied their asleep and had her left arm wrapped around Franklin, who then moved to get out of bed.

"Where are you going, Franklin?" Liz said drowsily. "Come back, stay with me."

"I'm sorry, baby, but I have some business that I need to attend to," Franklin said. "I'll call you soon, okay?"

"Okay," Liz said.

Franklin leaned over and then hugged Liz while she lied there, but Liz then moved her face towards Franklin's and then kissed him goodbye. It wasn't long until Franklin left as his Buffalo sped right down the street of Carson to wherever he needed to go, while Liz lied there all by her lonesome and then looked around her with a confused yet somewhat sad look on her face.

Why does this keep happening? He never stays with me unless he wants to fuck me. She thought. Wait, am I suddenly thinking this?

Franklin and Liz had been sort of seeing each other for a few months now, but their relationship had been purely physical, at least for the most part. The two had met when Raul, the manager of the Downtown Cab Company, had asked Franklin to take Alonzo for a ride to meet her under the Olympic Freeway overpass where she was fixing his car.

Alonzo was Liz's ex-boyfriend, who was abusive and possessive of her, to the point where he would beat up Liz's stepbrother because she hugged him, only because he wasn't blood-related. He would check Liz's cell-phone to see if she would be talking to any other guys. If he only knew that she had dated other men besides him.

It wasn't like she was only with Alonzo. She had also dated Kyle Chavis, a tennis coach who often coached wives of rich men, but then found out one day when she thought about surprising him at work and went to a tennis club where he was seen having sex with a client of his. It was enough for her to call it quits with him at that point.

When Franklin gave Alonzo the ride to meet with Liz, Franklin noticed how he berated her for taking the car out without his permission, not to mention the part about how he went after Liz's former boss at her previous job just for calling her. Though Franklin's comment about her rubbed him the wrong way, he did not need to react the way he did. However, karma bit him in the ass when he tried to fight Franklin, who then beat him up in the process. Liz gained an attraction to him for that.

But lately, she had felt something for Franklin that she never thought that she would feel. Sure, all those hot and sweaty nights with him were fun and all, but it even surprised her that she would even start looking at him in a different light than before. After having broken up with Alonzo for all the months he put her through hell, as well as broken up with Kyle for sleeping with his clients, she wasn't ready to date again. She was focused on her schoolwork, as well as trying to work on herself. The months of abuse from Alonzo pushed her away from wanting a new boyfriend.

Franklin may have been a good outlet for her because things were purely physical. She was sure that she wasn't the only one who he was messing around with, especially when she noticed a picture of him and another woman in his car. Whenever they talked, he didn't imply much about a girlfriend, so Liz assumed that she may have been an ex who got away, which was actually the case.

She lied in bed but then sat up with her blanket covering her naked body. Could she really be falling for Franklin at this point? Why was she feeling this way? It's been said that sometimes you'll fall for someone when you don't expect it. Liz was having one of these moments, but the question on her mind was whether Franklin felt the same way or not.

She enjoyed all the casual sex she had with him, but when they had sex the previous night, she felt something more, like maybe there was a lot more passion involved, rather than just want his body on her. The fact that she wanted him to stay with her was a clear sign that she felt something more for him. But he had to go somewhere. She knew that he owned some businesses and stuff, and was involved in some questionable activity. Hell, Alonzo was a member of the Vagos, so it's not like she doesn't know anything about the gang life.

For the rest of the day, she attended her classes. She couldn't focus much. The main thing on her mind was Franklin. It was definitely a sign to her that maybe she was falling for him, enough that she can't concentrate on her studies. The teacher would give a lecture and she wasn't even listening or taking notes. When class had ended, she snapped back into reality and then reached for her phone. She then found Franklin under her contacts list. She wrote a message to him.

Hey, Franklin, please call me when you get this. I need to tell you something.

She wasn't sure what Franklin was up to at that point. For all she knew, he was out pulling a score, stealing a car, maybe caught up in something that was life-threatening. Whatever it was, she started to wonder.

Meanwhile, Franklin happened to have been out with Trevor and Lamar at the Vanilla Unicorn. Franklin was getting a lap dance from Nikki, who then asked if he would like to go over to her place afterwards. However, he got out his phone and noticed a new message and it was from Liz.

"Oh, some other time, baby," Franklin said.

He walked out of the private dance area and saw Trevor and Lamar hanging out by the stage. He walked up to the two men.

"Hey, dogs, I gotta bounce," Franklin said.

"Oh, we were just beginning to have fun, F!" Trevor said. "I mean look at all these women. They just want to eat you alive! Oh yeah!"

"Your words, not mine, T," Franklin said. "I have to go right now."

"Hey, homie, I'll just roll with this crazy guy for a bit," Lamar said. "He'll take me to the crib."

"Fo sho, dog," Franklin said, who then fist-bumped both men.

Franklin walked down the hallway and opened the doors to the strip club and saw the alleyways, as daylight shone right open the streets of Strawberry at that moment. He got out his phone and then called Liz.

"Hey, Liz, what's up?" Franklin said.

"Franklin, I think I need to talk to you," Liz said. "Can you meet me at the university? I am not in the mood to fuck right now. It's something that I really need to talk to you about. Are you available?"

"Fo sho, girl, I'll go get you," Franklin said.

"Okay, I'll see you in a bit," Liz said. She then hung up and took a deep breath. The tension was high at that moment, as she really wanted to let Franklin know how she felt about him, but then there's the other perspective that she felt that she was just another booty call to him. She had been hurt by two guys before, and though she was willing to take rejection, the fact that she gave this guy her body multiple times in a no-strings-attached relationship was hard for to grasp, especially when she started feeling this way for the past week. The thought in her head that said "Tell me you love me!" was indicative of all of it.

But she had to be prepared if he shoots her down. She was a big girl. She had dealt with physical and verbal abuse from Alonzo, so if Franklin were to tell her that he wasn't interested, she had to take it well. It was only a matter of time.


Another note: Well, that's chapter one. I don't think that this will be a long story, but I have some other ideas in mind for this. Though I am focused on other projects at the moment, this will be a side thing and like I said, this probably won't be a long story. I hope you all enjoyed it.
