*Liz Pov*

It's been months since me and Conner been battling ludo, it was pretty easy but then I started to realize, I was slowly falling for Conner and I'm not allowed to fall for him, because if Lucas found out he will totally flip and he really likes me..like a lot he gave devil horns, that's what his family does with their first girlfriends but we never really even dated we just kissed and he said bye to me..my heart doesn't know what it freaking wants so

I'm hiding my feelings for Conner, he can't know I like him like that, he might feel different towards me when I say it and he doesn't like me back "Earth to Liz? You okay?" I snap into reality and see Roman and Conner looking at me "Yeah just spaced out, so what are we doing today?" "Beats me, I think I'm getting closer to Arielle..I can feel it" I giggle along with Conner

"Well good luck buddy, she's a tough cookie" Roman rolls his eyes and leaves me alone with him "alright bestie, now what?" He shrugs and lays back "Let's go hang at your place" I nod and we head to my grandparents house and hang in the backyard and just talk about random stuff "So..are you still into my cousin?" I raised my eyebrows

"No? Why would you ask me that?" He blushed and scuffs "Nothing..it's just I wanted to know..Um so you don't like him?" I nodded and giggled a bit  "Yeah I don't, but I might have a demon that is in love with me..he might come here soon" as I said that a portal from the underworld opened and came in a fire carriage and dead horse, oh great

"There she is, Elizabeth Diaz, still beautiful as ever" he kissed my hand and I kinda blushed and I noticed Conner a little uncomfortable "where are my manners, Conner this is Lucas my-" "Boyfriend, and you are?" I gave him a look and moved my hand away from him "Lucas we were never a couple, we kissed once before I left" Lucas looked confused and Conner was a little annoyed "So he isn't your boyfriend?" Conner asked "Yeah he isn't. We are just good friends"

Lucas rolled his eyes and pulled me close to him and Conner pulled my arm closer to him "Okay but she's my best friend so..we're really close friends" Lucas chuckles "That's funny, well we kissed and those horns on her head I gave her as a goodbye gift for her, so she's basically closer to me" Lucas pulled again and I broke away from both "Hey! I'm not a toy, I have emotions and if you two are acting this way I don't want either one of you!"

I crossed my arms and they both glared at each other "Well there's one thing we should do" this wasnt good "What is that?" Lucas smiled "win her heart in series of events" I just rolled my eyes and smirked "Dude are you for real" I giggled and sat down "You guys could try all you want but, nothing's gonna work I'm like my mom, hard to fall for someone" they groan and they glared at each other

After a few minutes they were both getting my attention and it was entertaining but also dumb, Lucas tries so hard to win my love but it's just not worth it, as they were getting to the point where my backyard was nearly destroy I stood up and walked inside and sat on the couch,

I just wanted someone that doesn't treat me any different, I know I'm a princess but I sure don't act like one.."Liz who won? Me or him?" Lucas said glaring at Conner who looks a little beat up and tired

"Lucas I care about you, I do but I can't be with you, I want to explore more and see the different people that are around me..and Conner I don't get you? First we're besties and now you're fighting over me like some prize? Do you like me in the way Lucas does or on a friendly level? I'm sorry to the both of you" Lucas looked annoyed

"Liz are you for real, I would die for you, I could punch the moon for you, what do want and I'll do it" I sigh and smiled softly "Leave..that's all I want" he looked shocked and a little hurt "Is that what you want? For me to leave?"

I nod and he came close and hugged me and kissed my cheek "I will leave but I'm not promising that I won't return for you Liz, I love you" I blush and he left and I turn towards Conner who looked mad "Conner.." he raised his hand "Don't Liz, your obviously have something for him, I could see it in your eyes, i don't want to be part of this little game of yours" I had tears forming in my eyes

"Conner I like you but I'm just not sure what my heart wants?" he sighs and leaves me alone in the living room and I fall to the floor holding my stomach and crying "Mom..I need you" I never knew how much this hurts..I just want my mom to hold me and rub my back when I needed her, as I stand up I see mother in front of me

"Liz?" I ran into her arms and cried and she held tight and rubbed my back and I was feeling a little better but not completely "How..did you know?" She giggles "Mother's instinct, remember your half mewnian and human, we know things"

I giggle softly "want to talk about it" I nodded and we went to my room and sat on my bed "So..tell me everything" I told her everything from the beginning to now and she smiles

"Boys...all I can say is follow your heart, because there are more times your heart is going to hurt like this I felt like this before, but my mother was never there for me, Liz I know Conner cares about you, I could feel it and for Tom's son he also cares about you, I know it must be confusing and hard but you gotta be strong and go with what your heart wants not your head" I smiled "Thanks mom, I needed advice, what will I do without you" she kissed my head and hugged me tight.

"Don't know, but remember I'm always there for you and Roman but I think your father might help him, has he gotten anywhere with that girl he wants?" I shake my head "thoughts so, anyway I gotta go home, I love you" I smile "I love you too, I miss you" she wiped a stray tear from her eyes "I miss you too, last hug" I laughed at how much mother loves me, even if we fight she's still the best mom I have..
