Faking it

Life Support

~Heatmizzer~

Summary: Before I give a premise, know that this Fanfic involves primarily a Liamy ship. It was asked by a reader of mine, to do one about them in particular. So Karmy armies, if you cannot stand the idea, do not read. Also as disclaimer it in no way reflects who I think should be together.

Premise: This story stems from when the truth finally comes out. It's the night of the Homecoming Dance and a few episodes in. As Karma, trusting her friendship with Amy is safe and out of the woods has asked Liam and he has accepted in the hopes that he too can find solace and tell her the truth. What happens will ultimately be confusing…Faking it…Life Support.


Chapter One

The school roof, Amy sat perched upon the side looking down at the party goers heading inside to the Homecoming; she was completed and deeply covered in tears that flooded her plain black t-shirt and jeans. This night had been a night of great loss and she just couldn't help the incessant draining of tears and snot. Suddenly a voice spoke…

"Why did you do it?" Liam announced with urgency, Amy used her sleeve and wiped her face turning back towards him, who stood in a dapper suit.

"Do what?" she nonchalantly replied.

"Amy, I just left Karma's house, she said she wasn't feeling like coming to the dance. Apparently you told her that you got me drunk and had sex with me to get back at her….Why?" Liam demanded.

"Because I want her to be happy and if it's not with me than you." She yelled perturbed, as he stood with a confused look, she reciprocated and stood up, shaking her head at him. "Honestly, I don't know…what I'm doing? I don't know if I'm gay or straight or both, I just know I love Karma and she loves you, she chose you." She replied as Liam and her conversation went into a moment of silence, Liam shook his head.

"No." Liam added. "I will tell her the truth." Amy stood up and came over to him.

"Are you stupid?" she announced. "You are out of your mind." She said hysterical.

"No, this isn't right. We both were at fault, we both slept together and you…"

"What?" Amy responded in anger inching closer.

"Don't deserve this." He replied ominously, Amy looked at him confused as if that same look she gave him as they stood drunk in the driveway of her house. "God…Amy, you are the most insane, overthinking, and annoying girl I know." He reprimanded walking towards her. "But…you're also the most loving, overprotective, and sweet girl I know." He said facing her in frustration. "And as much as I could stand here and just except it, I can't." Amy suddenly began to hit Liam in the chest with growls of strong frustration.

"You CAN! She loves you…. It's you…it's you she wants, and tonight, I finally realized it. She wants you…"as Liam caught her hand, he pulled her into a hug; suddenly Amy fell completely into his hug.


Karma sat in her dress staring at the wall; she was completely taken back by the news but not to the point of crying as she did the night of the wedding when she left the two alone. Immediately there was knocking at the door, she looked up at the door. Not sure what she was going to do, if it was Amy would she ultimately kill her or if it was Liam again…, but she found the courage anyway as the knocks became more persistent and no other person was home. She came over and looked through the peephole.

"What do you want?" she yelled through the door.

"I want to talk to you." A familiar nasally voice demanded.

"Go home, Shane!" she responded, suddenly there was silence, she looked in the peephole and there was no one there, she headed back towards the couch and lay back down.

"I just love what you've done to the place." Shane's voice permeated the living room.

"How?" Karma stated.

"Look everyone knows most families have a spare key, under the mat, in the nearby bush or on top of the door itself." He responded.

"Well leave."

"Not until I say what I need to say and get it out. I have had the most incredible year with you all. Needless to say, too much lies, shade, tea whatever you call it but I've realize for the sanity of us all, that it has got to stop. For God sake, we are teenagers in high school, and we are not on reality TV either. So listen up and listen good….Amy slept with Liam, and Liam with Amy, but that sh**t happens." As Karma rolled her eyes and lifted up. "It doesn't make them bad guys, it's makes them people. People who made a mistake with the encouragement of champagne and hurt. Now, yes, it was wrong for them to keep it from you but Karma, what I've learn is that one lie begets another and another until it grows and it's not worth losing friendships." He responded, as Karma looked concerned. "The question you really should answer is not why but whether Amy or Liam is worth losing over one stupid mistake?"


Amy pulled back wiping her eyes as Liam looked at her intensely, suddenly he kissed her. He then stopped realizing he was making another mistake. As Amy took it in, she looked at him for a moment, she then kissed back. Suddenly…
