Liza's POV

12:00 A.M.

After David asked me to come to his birthday party, he took me on a "tour" around L.A. It was a beautiful, clear night. He showed me almost all of the popular tourist attractions in the area. We had a lot of fun! Eventually, David finished his little tour and drove me home. Just as he was dropping me off, I noticed that the clock in his car read 12:00 A.M., which means it is now David's birthday!

     "Hey, the clock just turned to midnight! Happy birthday dude!" I say, getting out of the car.

     David parks his car on the side of the road and replies, "Oh yeah I guess it is. Thanks! 19 is such an interesting age. You're still a teenager, yet you are considered an adult, even though you can't legally drink. " He gets out of his car and shuts the door.

     I look at him confused. "True, but why did you park your car? My apartment is right here."

     He gives me the same confused look. "Did you think that I would let you walk in alone?"

Aww, How nice of him. I smile shyly. "Kind of. No one has ever offered to walk me in before. They usually just drop me off and go." David walks around his car to meet up with me. He has a small smile on his face, although it looks like he's trying to hide it. "You know, you really don't have to walk me in. It's okay, you'll still be my friend." Oh, I guess I have two new friends now.

Now, David's smiling widely. He can't hide it this time. "Wow, I'm considered a friend of yours! That's a relief, I didn't know if you liked me or not." He winks at me. I roll my eyes and giggle. "And I'm not walking you in because I need to. I'm walking you in because I want to." He starts walking towards the building. He pauses. "Come on!" he says. I catch up with him. Then, we start walking into the building together.

I get out my building I.D so that the I.D scanner can unlock the gate. The gate unlocks, and we walk into the building. We reach the elevators, and when the door shuts, David asks, "What floor?"

"8." I answer. He presses the button and the elevator starts to move upwards.

We stand there silently for a moment, until David starts to talk. "So, do you want to come over to my apartment around 3 o'clock? The party starts at 7, so that'll give us around 4 hours. Is that enough time?"

"It depends. Do you need to buy a camera that records?"

He shakes his head. "I own one. I actually used to post YouTube videos... oh my God, they were awful. So cringey! That's why I need you to come and help me."

I smirk. "I'll be checking those out later." He groans and I laugh. The elevator opens, and we we walk out. Then, I quickly put on a sad face. I decided to mess with him again. "Is that the only reason why you want me to come over tomorrow, uh, I mean, later today?"

His face drops. "No, of course not Liza! I also lo...like hanging out with you! You're a great friend, who also happens to be a YouTube queen, so when I have questions about making YouTube videos, I think to ask you, Your Majesty." he jokes.

I laugh. "I would barely even call myself a YouTuber. I mean, I only started like two or three weeks ago."

He chuckles. "So what!? Everyone has to start somewhere. I may have not seen your videos yet, but I already know that they're awesome."
