I love your nice reviews. You guys were obviously intelligent enough to take my threats seriously. Good. Anyways, I know I have to get to the disclaimer so: Disclaimer: I don't own these people...At least, that's what the nice men in the white coats tell me...
"Uh, yeah, I'm at Avan's. It was movie night last night, and it got rather late, so I just stayed." I tried.
"Okay. So, I'll see you guys soon, then." She said in her regular, bubbly voice, but it had a hint of suspicion.
She certainly had similarities to Cat, but she was more down to earth.
I took a quick shower then got dressed. I then went to text Avan; I knew that he almost never ignored his phone.
I jumped as I felt someone's arms snake themselves around my idriff.
"Avan! Don't scare me like that!" I exclaimed, quickly recognizing his arms.
"Mmm, I was already awake, so I thought I'd save you from making an unnecessary text message." He said into my neck.
"Get dressed. We have to be at work in five minutes." I said as his lips connected with my neck.
"A-Avan, you can't leave any marks there today," I whispered weakly.
Avan sighed in obvious frustration as I turned in his embrace to face him.
"Why?" He demanded.
"Everybody knew it was movie night last night; Ariana knows I slept over; and, to top it all off, she's figuring it out, Avan. The time we spend together, the ease of kissing and touching on stage, off-stage, for the cameras." I said in equal frustration.
Avan POV
"Damn! That's not good. Nobody can know yet." I said, trying to cover my worry from this piece of information.
"I know. And I know we can't tell anyone, but isn't it close enough to my birthday? Don't they, at least, deserve to know?" She pleaded.
"Yes, they deserve to know, but I don't want any trouble." I said as I went to get dressed.
I came out of my room wearing jeans and a gray shirt.
I kissed Liz with a passion and love I'd never felt for anyone else, ever, and she responded with just as much passion and love.
I broke away first. She groaned from the loss of contact and we left to go to the set.
We talked on the car ride there.
"I want to tell them as much as you do," I told her truthfully. "Because then, I could kiss you whenever I want; say 'I love you' all the time; and run my hands through your hair. And you'd be mine. I wouldn't have to watch so many guys come on to you. I could just walk up, put my arm around you, tell them to back off then kiss you." I couldn't believe I was telling her this, but it was how I felt.
Liz did't look at me, but I could see a smile spread across her face quickly.
"Beck and Jade have a few scenes together today." She stated, still grinning.
"Yeah, during a few of which I get to kiss you. Not much surpasses that fun," I said, thinking.
We pulled into the parking lot and walked to our dressing rooms.
I opened the door to mine and walked in.
"Hi, Avan!" Came Vic's cheery voice.
I froze.
It caught me off guard.
"Uh, hey, Vic," I said slowly.
Liz POV
I walked into my dressing room.
"Hey hey, Liz!" Came Ari's happy voice.
"Oh. Hey, Ari," I said.
"Are you going over to Avan's again tonight?" She asked.
"I don't know. I don't think so. Why?" I asked slowly.
"Well, I was thinking that maybe we could invite Vic, Leon, Matt, and Avan to the house tonight and we could all just hang out and have fun. Maybe play a few games?" She suggested.
"Yeah, sure. I'll get into costume and then go tell Avan and Leon. You tell Vic and Matt." I said.
"Kk. See you later," She said and hurried out. I texted Leon the invite. The costume designer and make-up artist came in and changed my clothes and did my hair and everything and then I stood up to go to Avan's dressing room.
But, I figure I'd surprise him, so I texted him first, to make him think I wasn't going to drop by.
Avan POV
"So, Avan, what are you doing tonight?" Vic asked me.
"Oh, uh, I'm-I'm going to be-" My phone went off.
I knew who it was by the ringtone.
I opened it to view the message.
To: Avan
From: Liz
Hey Ari wants u 2 come over 2 our place 2nite. Is that alright?
I almost sighed in relief.
"I'm going to be at Liz and Ari's place tonight." I told Victoria as I texted Liz my answer.
Vic got closer and draped her arm around my shoulder.
"Well, what now? Ari invited me, too." She said slyly.
I had a terrible feeling forming in the pit of my stomach.
"We can't do this, Victoria. I can't, won't, and you shouldn't."
She ignored my words and leaned up and kissed me; I didn't respond. I felt nothing, just like our stage kiss at the beginning of Victorious. There was no spark, no tingling sensation, none of the feelings I got when I kissed Liz, or was near Liz or touching Liz. Nothing.
I pulled away quickly and walked to my chair.
"I told you Vic. We can't do this and I won't."I said sternly, running a hand through my hair.
"Why not?" She asked, almost angrily.
"Because, I can't," I said, not wanting to reveal Liz and my secret.
"You can't? Because why? Avan, tell me! Here I am, trying to kiss you, and get you to go out with me and you're saying no? I need something better. Because why?" She pressed in frustration.
"Because I have a girlfriend! And I love her, and no other girl can even come close to being who she is to me. Ever. That's why." I almost yelled.
Victoria looked taken aback.
"You-you have a girlfriend?"
"Yes," I answered.
"Who? Do I know her? HOw long have you guys been dating?" She threw questions at me.
"I'm not answering those questions." I told her. "Please, Vic, just-just leave."
She turned and walked out the doorway Liz was standing in.
So, anyway, I've been reading your reviews. I like them. That is all. Oh, wait, that isn't all. Because I have important news: The faster Liz Gillies gets more fans on twitter, the faster I'll update. Even though this isn't my last chapter for the night...anyway, most of my ANs will include important messages like that one. Kk, R&R. THAT is all.
