Lizzie suddenly turned and ran back into the building and up the stairs, banging on Justin's door.

Justin opened the door. "What is it?" He asked.

by **Caroline Berry** Thu Jul 23, 2015 10:35 pm

"I know why Emma hasn't fallen in love with you yet." Lizzie said.

by **Logan Henderson** Thu Jul 23, 2015 10:36 pm

"Wh-what?" Justin stammered.

Lizzie pushed past him into his apartment. "Have you ever seen the Great Gatsby?" she asked him.

by **Logan Henderson** Thu Jul 23, 2015 10:39 pm

"No. Never." Justin said.

by **Caroline Berry** Thu Jul 23, 2015 10:42 pm

"Okay. Well, Jay Gatsby is in love with Daisy Buchanan. He, like you, is obsessed with her. And just when he thinks he's finally got her, he snaps and the more he apologizes, the more she pushes him away. Stop pushing, Justin. Stop flirting, stop obsessing. Because the harder you push, the farther she'll run." Lizzie said.

"I've been told that before but I don't see it working... It's kind of counter-intuitive. You're telling me to friend zone myself to escape the friend zone."

by **Caroline Berry** Thu Jul 23, 2015 10:46 pm

"Had you actually tried it though?" Lizzie asked him. "You can't know if it works if you don't try it."

by **Logan Henderson** Thu Jul 23, 2015 10:47 pm

"It seems detrimental though." Justin said with a mellodramatic sigh.

by **Caroline Berry** Thu Jul 23, 2015 10:48 pm

Lizzie groaned in frustration before she randomly kissed him.

by **Logan Henderson** Thu Jul 23, 2015 10:51 pm

Justin kissed back. He realized what he was doing and pulled away. "Uhh..."

by **Caroline Berry** Thu Jul 23, 2015 10:53 pm

"Exactly!" Lizzie said. "You know you don't like me so kissing me feels wrong. Right?"

by **Logan Henderson** Thu Jul 23, 2015 10:55 pm

"Yeah..." Justin said frowning. "Where is this going?"

by **Caroline Berry** Thu Jul 23, 2015 10:56 pm

"Emma isn't sure if she likes you, so flirting with you or dating you would feel wrong to her." Lizzie said.

by **Logan Henderson** Thu Jul 23, 2015 10:58 pm

"So I'm supposed to fade into the metaphorical ether and be a friend until she feels right?" Justin asked.

by **Caroline Berry** Thu Jul 23, 2015 11:00 pm

"If you really love her, you'll let her go. And if she comes back to you, it was meant to be." Lizzie said.

by **Logan Henderson** Thu Jul 23, 2015 11:01 pm

"But I can't let her go... Because what if she doesn't come back?! What if I lose her for good?!" Justin asked.

by **Caroline Berry** Thu Jul 23, 2015 11:03 pm

"Then it wasn't meant to be. But you have to take the leap to find out." Lizzie said.

by **Logan Henderson** Thu Jul 23, 2015 11:04 pm

"I don't think I can." Justin said.

by **Caroline Berry** Thu Jul 23, 2015 11:07 pm

"Do you want Emma to love you or not?" Lizzie demanded.

by **Logan Henderson** Thu Jul 23, 2015 11:08 pm

"So badly." Justin said. "The stars will align."

by **Caroline Berry** Thu Jul 23, 2015 11:10 pm

"Then start by deleting her number from your phone." Lizzie said.

by **Logan Henderson** Thu Jul 23, 2015 11:12 pm

"I'm not eliminating her from my life!" Justin protested.

by **Caroline Berry** Thu Jul 23, 2015 11:13 pm

"I didn't say that. I said delete her number from your phone. You'll see her around the building all the time." Lizzie said.
