Gigi didn't hear from Liz for almost a week and it was driving her crazy. She tried to keep her thoughts away from her ex, but it felt impossible. Even though work and the upcoming semester were keeping her busy, it wasn't enough, nothing was enough when Liz was involved. She tried calling her the first two days but then she felt like she was bothering Liz so she stopped. She was always repeating to herself that the situation was her karma. She felt like that was how Liz must have felt when she left Illinois three years ago. Days were passing slow, she had fun with the kids and was content with her work for college but was always filling a void in her chest as if she was longing for something, or maybe someone. Nights were passing even slower; she couldn't close her eyes without the thought of Liz appearing in her mind. She wasn't being able to sleep more than five hours and felt like if the situation was driving her crazy. And the worst thing was, she couldn't understand why. She h

Chapter 44: War It was a cold night in Illinois and she was wearing a light dress but her body didn't care, it was like she wasn't feeling anything, just desire to see Gigi. And that was so scary to Liz. Leaving her girlfriend after being intimate to go to Gigi's place? That didn't sound like her. Her hands were shaky as she drove to her destination and she was nervous. Her car felt smaller and smaller like if she was trapped inside of a box, she was anxious. She wasn't used to doing that kind of crazy things for anyone, and she was less than used to do those things for Gigi. Of course, she had loved her and felt wild while they were dating but they were younger back then, and staying up all night together or escaping from school were the craziest things they would do. Also, what did that mean? Did that mean that she was still into Gigi? Was it only the guilt she was feeling what was driving her to Gigi's house? Liz was so confused and shocked because of what she was doing that she

Chapter 46: Guess What, Gigi?Liz shot back completely astonished by Gigi's words. She didn't want to admit how jealous she was of seeing Gigi with Kyle but the words were sliding out of her mouth without consulting her brain first. "Who I kiss is none of your business, Liz, and if you came here to insult me then leave. Yes, I was such a slut, maybe I should have cheated on you every time I had the chance." "It is my business when you're kissing that stupid guy who made me feel insecure the whole time we dated!" Gigi knew Liz had a point yet still wasn't going to let her win. After all, she was single and Liz had a girlfriend, who she kissed was none of Liz's business. "How do you think I feel when you kiss Delilah? Do you think I feel happy?" Gigi raised her voice more than she would normally do during a fight with Liz. She was kind of worried about her parents waking out because of all that noise, she didn't want anyone to interrupt them, she was enjoying being able to say whateve

Chapter 48: Unspoken WordsAt first, Liz was really surprised and wasn't even moving until she finally understood what was going on and furiously grabbed Gigi's hips and pulled the blonde closer to her. She felt like she was daydreaming, like walking on cloud nine. They started clumsily plodding over the grass until Gigi's back met the tree she was resting her body on a few minutes ago. Gigi tasted like mint toothpaste and Liz tasted like grape gum as they both remembered. Even though they were passionately kissing, Gigi felt like it wasn't enough, she wanted everything with Liz, she wanted to take her to bed, to call her hers, to hold her hand, to daydream about a life with her. Their two bodies were almost glued to one another and Liz's hands started traveling all over Gigi's body, she was desperate to make up for all of those times she couldn't kiss her because Gigi wasn't even in the same city as her. That kiss was full of unspoken words, it meant "I'm sorry", "I still miss you

Chapter 50: Blonde"Lizzy, do you like this one?" Delilah turned around to show Liz the short dress she was trying. They were shopping in the main city center and Liz couldn't be more bored. Well, maybe bored wasn't the word she would use, she was tired. Her kiss with some blonde girl got her up all night and the bags under her eyes were the living proof of it. She wanted to know how Gigi was doing if she had felt the same amount of happiness as her if she had stayed up all night thinking about her as Liz did if she had felt like she fell in love all over again with Liz and many more things. But, taking the good feelings aside, Liz was sad. The guilt she was feeling was almost consuming her and was damaging her brain, she couldn't even breathe without feeling like the worst person alive. She was a loser for not telling Delilah the truth and a bigger loser for choosing not to talk to Gigi instead of trying to fix things once again. Delilah had called her a couple of hours after that in
