The Truth

"Elizabeth! Elizabeth!" I called running after her. She was quick I could admit that. I guess she hadn't been lying when she said she used to be on the track team. I stopped when I reached the outside area, I looked in her car but I saw nothing. I ran my fingers through my hair in frustration. "Elizabeth? Where are you?" I looked around.

"Avan," Victoria's coy voice summoned me.

My face turned into one of disgust and detest. On reflex my tongue went out in distaste however I quickly put it away and put on a perfect smile for her. "Hello princess," he called.

"Oh Avan," she cooed and hugged me tightly. I wrapped my arms around her unhappily. If Elizabeth thought she was testing my acting skills she was nothing compared to Victoria.

I sighed exasperated and Victoria picked up on my unhappiness. " Look Victoria I'm worried about Liz. She ran off and I'd really like to make sure she's ok."

"Avan!" Victoria growled. She released me though with a devious grin. "Fine go find her but then I'll just call grandma dearest again," she pointed rudely at me and then fetched her phone.

"Fine calm down," I said my voice a bit roughed than it needed to be.

"Fine you can go see her," Victoria said a placid look settling on her face. I sighed happily and was about to take off when she butted in "but!" I turned to face her trying to hide my distaste. "Kiss me," she said very plainly.

"Wha?" I asked looking at her stupidly. "You want me to what?" I nearly screamed again.

"Kiss. Me." She said again.

I sighed heavily but I really did need to look for Elizabeth. So I set my resolve and put my hands on her shoulders. I leaned my head down and place my lips lightly on hers. It was soft and gentle and it was feather light. It was something I knew someone like Elizabeth would drool over.

Victoria however wrapped herself around me and pulled me closer. She refused to keep the kiss at the sweet gentle release of emotion I had set the tone as.

"Avan I'm so-" the was Elizabeth's sweet voice. I turned away from Victoria and she clutched my arm.

"Liz no don't!" I sighed as she sprinted away again "run away," I finished my sentence defeated. I sighed again before sprinting after her wishing I was in better shape. It was unfortunate that I had no idea where she had taken off to.

I looked left, right, up, down, side to side, and literally all around me. As each direction yielded no sign of her I became more and more frustrated. "ELIZABETH!" I screamed in the crowded public area. People turned to look at me but the only person I didn't see was her. I sat down on the pavement and tried to think of where on this green earth she may be.

"You look stupid down there," her voice said. I looked up and saw Elizabeth with her hand held out for me.

"Found ya," I conceded as I took her hand and she hauled me up.

"Ya well, we need to be getting back to the studio." She turned then and walked off without me. I followed quickly however.

Elizabeth didn't waste any time on getting back to the studio. Did she look…flush? I followed her quickly and was met with an armful of Elizabeth. I gracefully fell to the floor with Elizabeth in my arms.

"S-someone help!" I yelled as we sat just inside the studio doors.

"What happened?" Ariana asked rushing over.

"She just fell," I said trying to get more people to help.

"Avan!" Leon said also coming over.

"Please go get one of the medics," I pleaded with him.

"I'm on it," Leon exited.

"What's going on?" Victoria asked coming about.

"Elizabeth passed out," I said looking up at her. My eyes told her she had better keep quiet.

"What's going on?"

"Where's the accident?"

"Is everyone ok?" medics flooded the area and Elizabeth was taken from my arms.
