When high school starts, Zach finds himself in a new group of friends who all end up in relationships, leaving Zach feeling a tad bit jealous. So, he does the most logical thing for that moment. Lie.

View MoreLiiza's POV
It's Sunday night and we all know what that means. Holidays are gone. Back to school. I've been binge watching N*****x for hours already, cradling a bag of popcorn and stuffing it into my mouth.
It's only 10:00pm, way too early to go to sleep.
My mom always tells me to sleep early but I never listen and end up suffering every morning. Maybe someday In the future I will see what she meant.
I lay on my stomach, watching 'Enchanted', which I've watched over a hundred times already but never gotten tired of. I knew I was slowly going to fall asleep while watching, so I made sure I made myself comfortable enough.
As I stare at my laptop, I felt my eyes starting to flickering shut untill darkness finally drowns me.
••
I wake up to the annoying upbeat tune of 'One Dance' by Drake, singing from my alarm. With a deep groan, I roll out of bed and trudge to the washroom.
Quickly, I remove my pajamas and sink into the hot bath I have run for myself, trying not to forget I have to go to school. Taking a warm shower on a school morning is the worst idea due to how hard it is to get out of it.
A few minutes later, I get out and I’m faced with the challenge of picking out what to wear. I quickly chose a pale gray shirt with a V-neck and high waisted skinny jeans, a blue infinity scarf around my neck and white boots.
I do my short makeup routine, applying some mascara, eyeliner and concealer on the "trouble" areas. Finally, I apply some lip balm. As I take the last step to the ground, I see that my breakfast is already prepared, I mutter a greeting to my mom, who is wiping down the bench top.
"Good morning Mom." I say, flashing a small smile and sitting down at the table.
"Morning, dear. Come and eat your food before it gets cold. You don't wanna be late to school on your first day!" She says cheerily.
I just finish eating my eggs and toast when the doorbell rings, so I run to the door and open it.
It's Zach.
"Hey, Muff" I grin, sliding my backpack over one shoulder.
I shout my goodbye down the hall and turn to face him again. "Are you ready to go?"
"No, I'm not ready. I just came here to waste some time." He sarcastically replied, giving me the duh face. I just roll my eyes and walk past him.
"Bye Mrs. Starr" Zach shouts into my house and shuts the door behind me.
Zach is one of the hottest and richest guys at my school. He has dreamy light brown eyes and short, soft hair to match. Unlike the other boys, Zach is not a player. He respects girls and doesn't play around with them, one of the many reasons why I really care about him. Today, he's wearing a white polo shirt with faded blue jeans.
I open the door to Zach's BMW and slip into the padded leather passenger's seat. In case you forgot, Zach is filthy rich, so yeah, he does own a BMW, and a driver.
"Hey Willy." I greet his driver, with a familiar face.
"Hey Liiza, how are you?" He asks.
"I'm good." I smile, and he starts the car.
His real name is William but Zach and I call him Willy in short. He is in his early 40s and has been working in Zach's family for over 10 years. I can just tell, even from the limited time I have with him, he is honest and kind.
"Soooo.... baby girl. How are you?" Zach interrupted my train of thought.
"I'm… Good” I narrowed my eyes and responded, suddenly getting suspicious “What about you?" I ask.
"I'm good. You look nice today." He says with a wink.
"Thanks." I reply dryly.
I'm used to his praises. Often they are just to tease me but sometimes, I think he actually means it.
"Even though you're getting a bit fat" He grins, making me roll my eyes.
I saw that coming.
"Keep rolling your eyes, you might find a brain back there." He and William snort.
"Stop!" I smack him on the arm, a slight smile creeping onto my face.
"Fine, fine. I'm sorry baby girl." He chuckles.
He has called me pet names for as long as I can remember, since we were small. And because he does it, so do I. Everyday it's cupcake, baby girl, angel, sweetheart, darling or anything else that comes to mind.
He only ever calls me by my real name, Liiza or Liz, when he's hiding something, angry, or nervous. Zach and I have known each other for 18 years. We have been friends since birth.
We grew up together. Our parents were best friends since high school and are also neighbors. We hang out with each other every day and help each other with homework and stuff. Zach is also that type of annoying friend. You know the ones you bathed with when you were a baby, yup that type.
He annoys me everyday, but he's also so overprotective. I guess I know that if anyone ever hurts me then that person has to wake up in the hospital the next morning.
It's a short ride to school and as soon as we get there, I jump out of the car, leaving Zach behind, with a short farewell. Then, I go straight to my locker to get my books.
After I choose the books I need, and check my makeup in the mirror, I close my locker and see the recognisable blonde hair of Rilee, bouncing towards me.
"Hey, Riles!" I call, waving her over.
"Hey, girl. How's life?" She asks.
Rilee is gorgeous. She has beachy, blonde hair, tan skin and pink, full lips. She has gray eyes and a tiny waistline. Rilee is one of those girls that are just naturally pretty and her nice bubbly personality just makes her even prettier. She's had more boyfriends then I can count in the past five years of our friendship.
Today, she's wearing a strappy, yellow crop top and white, ripped jeans.
"Oh yeah. Life, it sucks." I say, groaning and backing into my locker.
"Ain't that the truth." She smirks, eyeing up Zach as he walks towards us with a group of unknown boys.
"Hey girls." Zach kisses me on the forehead, like usual. He has always treated me like a sister. "So this must be your precious girlfriend." One of the guys says to Zach.
"Um... I'm sorry but-" I start, about to correct them as the affection that Zach and I show each other is usually misunderstood by others, and I honestly don’t blame them.
"Liz, these are my friends from Greenwood." Zach cuts me off, gesturing to the group of guys.
"Hi, I'm Jack" Says one of the boys.
"I'm Caleb. Must have heard of me already" He said, smirking.
"Uh, and I'm Dylan" The last guy nods his head.
I say hi to each one of them with a soothing smile and a small wave "Did you guys just transfer?" Rilee asks. "I haven't seen you around."
"Yeah." Jack replies. "We know Zach from football."
"About what you sai-" I began to correct them.
"Liz, if you don't mind, can I speak to you?" I once again got cut off by Zach. He looks at the guys and Rilee desperately. "Alone?"
"Sure," I agree softly, walking with Zach to an empty classroom.
"What's going on?" I ask, confused, folding my arms across my chest and narrowing my eyes at him.
"Liz. I-I really need your help." He stammers, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly.
Stammering? And calling me by my actual name? Yeah, this guy is up to something, "Spill it, Zach." I stare into his pale brown eyes, unimpressed.
They're just so cute. I can't resist them. Suddenly, he drops down to his knees. That's a bit dramatic.
"Zach, what are you doin-"
"Shut up, Liz. Let me talk. It's not what you think." He puts his hands together, pleading.
"Liz, I have known you my entire life and I have always treated you like my younger sister. I protected you and saved you from all trouble and never asked you for anything until now" He blabbers.
"What is this about, Zach?" I have never seen him act so vulnerable in my life.
"Liz." He pauses, taking a deep breath. "Will you be my fake girlfriend?"
Shocked, I stood there frozen, unable to say a word.
Liiza's POVSo... Today is Jack's Birthday but the boys are all on tour. Its been really long since we saw them last, 3 days after Jonah's birthday they left which was pretty long ago if you ask me and they will be on tour for a month so we won't see them for a month unless we're lucky. Disadvantages of having singers as boyfriends. Now, Jack is on tour on his birthday and we are about to video chat. It's 11:56 and we're about to call them and wish him. Stephany is the most excited about this. "Guys come fast !" Stephany urged, making us all laugh. "Calm your horses baby girl" Rilee laughed "We have time" She added. "She's right. It's better we call 11:58 then we can immediately wish him" I added and sat beside, her "Trust me, we are as excited as you are to talk to our boys" I added, with a shrug. "Yeah" The others agreed. "Fine !" Stephany said with a sigh. We waited till the time is 11:58, then clicked on call. We're Skype calling together so we can see each other. The fir

Liiza's POV"Ok, Well what do we do?" Jack asked "I'm honestly out of surprises" He added."Me too" Dylan added.I just sit quietly, thinking as I watch them try to come up with something. Well you must be wondering what we're thinking about.Well, in 3 days it will be Jonah's 20th birthday. He's now officially an adult so we have to do something for him like we did for the others. Every one of us here has had a birthday party.My mind lightened up and my fingers clicked."I have an Idea" I said and they all gave me their attention "Why don't we make a surprise for him but not just us, with fans" I grinned."I don't get i
Liiza's POV"Hey Anli Gang!" Andree and I said cheerfully to the camera.The last video me made about the whole break up thing got over 2 million views. Of course there were a lot of comments. Most of them were all about them feeling bad and hating the fact that we broke up. There were quite a few hate comments, which I'm not really surprised about.It's been only a week since the whole date thing. The video was a hit on YouTube for some reason. Right now, Andree and I are shooting a new video to inform our fans about our new decision."How are you guys doing?" I asked with a huge grin on my face "I know that you guys have been waiting for our decision, although the party video might have given you all the Idea" I said."The party video has been p
Liiza's POV“Woah! This is so beautiful, you never told me that his new house is this big” I said, looking at the house.A few days back, the boys called Logan and told him that we will be meeting him today and here we are, standing outside the house, though they had been very secretive, I don't even know.For some reason they invited the other girls, Sierra, Christina and Stephanny.Its very difficult, and the boys will also soon be leaving on another tour.It's a very big and beautiful.l house. It’s funny how I never knew that he changed his house, maybe because I don’t really watch YouTube video that much. I only listen to songs.
Liiza’s POVIts been 3 weeks since Andree and I broke up. We haven’t talked to each other since then. There had been a lot of misunderstanding and so we finally decided to sit and talk, all together. With everyone else.But before that, we have to complete the most important thing. There have been a lot of messages and comments about us being off and not updating on Youtube, so we have to work on that first.After we inform everyone about the problem, then we will have the meeting and everyone will tell us their problems.What makes everything harder is the fact that we live in the same house. Sometimes, Andree and Zach will exchange. Zach will come here and Andree will go to his.
Lizza's POV I watch with blurry eyes as he hugs and kissed Ariel. The worst part is that she's kissing him back. "Cupcake" Zach came in view then hugged me. I get too paralyzed to even move my hand and hug him back "Where's Arial?" He asked. I finally gained my strength and pointed at the corner where they are kissing. His expression darkened and he bolted towards the, pushing Andree away from Ariel. "What the-" He said, about to snap but then he realized what he did and looked down. I didn't waste another second there and bolted out of the place. I really need air. Was he serious, he literally walked past me and kissed his ex? That must have been the reason he had been worried about he... He still likes her. I just went on walking, not watching where I'm going, then I hit my leg on a huge rock, which made me end up on the ground. "Serves you right... Betrayer!" The guy called out as they drove away in the cops jeep. "Liiza, You ok
Ariel's POV God! What did they inject in me? Whatever it is, it's definitely not good cause I kept me asleep for about 12 hours... I think, cause It's already night. I wonder if the others realize that I'm gone cause it seems like none of them have come to get me. This place is awful. I don't like it, and on top of that, I'm very hungry. They haven't given me anything to eat since morning. Do they want me to die? I sit, with my head rested on the wall as I wait to get rescued. I wonder how Andree will be feeling. Does he even care that I'm kidnapped? Is he making efforts to look for me? Does he even care? And Zach of course. He must be so worried too. I keep waiting, staring at the small basement window when I hear sound of keys dangling. The door shot open, when the ugly guy came in. I really need to get his name. "Well, well, well, the Sleeping Beauty awakes," He said with a s
