Zan led Liz out into the palace gardens. He then sat her down on a nearby bench. "Liz, I really need to talk to you about something," Zan said sitting down next to her.
"Why waste time talking when there is so many other more enjoyable things we could be doing," Liz replied leaning over to kiss Zan.
Zan quickly stood up, which caused Liz to be shocked. "No Liz, there is something very important that I have to tell you."
"Geez, you make it sound so serious," Liz once again tried to get close to Zan, but he backed off.
"It is Liz," Zan said matter of factly.
"Okay, you have my attention," Liz said sitting back down.
"I kissed another women tonight at the party," Zan said.
"You what?" Liz shouted standing up to face Zan.
"I kissed an…,"
"I heard you the first time," Liz shouted interrupting Zan.
"Liz please keep your voice down," Zan pleaded with her. The last thing he needed was a humiliating break up scene, that wouldn't do anyone any good.
"Keep my voice down, that is all you have to say, you tell me that you kissed another women and you expect me to stay calm," Liz shouted, "Who was it?" Zan looked at Liz, this was the question he was dreading. He didn't think it would be fair to incriminate Ava without giving her at least a little bit of a warning. Noticing that Zan was stalling Liz once again shouted, "Who was it?"
"Liz, please who it was is not the important thing, I need to discuss us," Zan replied.
"No, I want to know what little witch decided to put her filthy paws on my man," Liz said angrily.
After hearing Liz insult Ava, Zan snapped, "Do not speak about Ava that way." Zan then realized that he had just slipped up.
Liz's face immediately fell, "Ava, you kissed Ava." Liz stood there shocked, the one person who she knew she could never rid Zan of, she could handle anyone else, but Ava was a totally different story.
"Yes, I kissed Ava," Zan replied.
"You kissed her or she kissed you?" Liz asked realizing that the answer to this question would determine everything.
Zan looked at Liz, he didn't want to break her heart, but he knew that he would never feel the same way about her as she did him. "I kissed her, I am sorry, I am so sorry I didn't mean to hurt you, you have to believe that," Zan said quietly.
Liz looked up at Zan with tears in her eyes, "I know, could you just leave me alone, I have to compose myself."
"Of course," Zan replied walking back into the party.
As soon as
Liz knew Zan was gone she wiped her tears. "So you think you are
going to dump me to be with that little tramp Ava, I don't think
so, we belong together Zan and I will make sure we are together."

"What do you think is going on
out there, they have been out there quite awhile," Ava said pacing
in the corner with Vilandra and Rath.
"Will you please calm down, I am sure that Zan is telling her that he wants to be with you," Vilandra replied trying to soothe her friend's worries.
Ava turned to Vilandra, "V, do you really think so, what if he took one look at her and decided that she was his one true love and now he doesn't want anything to do with me, not that I don't deserve that I did leave him," Ava started to ramble.
"Girl, that is enough, I know that Zan wants to be with you and the kiss you shared proves that. Zan wouldn't just kiss you if it didn't mean something to him," Vilandra said convincingly.
Ava sighed, "I know that you are right, but I still can't help but worry, I think I am going to head home, I am awfully tired from all this excitement" Ava asked Vilandra.
"Okay and don't worry I will tell Zan where you are if he asks."
"Thanks, tell him that I will meet with him tomorrow, say goodnight to your mother for me and tell her lovely party," Ava replied giving Vilandra a hug, "and I will see you at home," Ava said giving her brother a kiss. Ava then went to get her cover and started to walk home.
Rath looked as his sister walked away, "I hope things work out for those two," he replied pulling Vilandra closer to him.
"Yeah me too." Just then Zan walked back in and started heading in their direction.
-
"Rath, Vilandra, have you two seen Ava?" Zan asked.
"You just missed her man, she was feeling a little tired after everything that happen today, so she headed home," Rath answered.
Zan's face fell, he really wanted to tell Ava about what happen with Liz. As far as he knew, Ava could have thought that him and Liz were reconciling.
"She said to tell you she would just meet you tomorrow like you had planned," Vilandra said noticing the disappointment on her brother's face.
Zan looked at Vilandra, "Okay, so did she seem upset?"
"No, more like anxious, but don't fret I told her you would be back for her, and see I was right, I am always right," Vilandra boasted.
Zan laughed, "Yeah, yeah, the great Vilandra can never be wrong," Zan teased.
"That's right, remember I told you that you wouldn't be able to hide your feelings for Ava and look you couldn't," Vilandra said.
"You know she's right, we were all right, we knew you and Ava would somehow find a way back to each other," Rath said.
Zan
smiled, " Okay, you guys were right about this one, but don't get
cocky, I remember a certain couple that it took months to finally get
together." Zan shot back. Rath and Vilandra just started to laugh.
-
From the shadows Liz watched this
scene. "So Rath and Vilandra were in on this too, well I guess I
will have to make them pay also."Liz said to herself. "No one
makes a fool out of me and gets away with it." "You two enjoy
being proud of yourselves for now, but soon I will be with Zan and
you two will be very sorry." Liz then turned to leave and work on
her plan to get Zan back.
