Summary: You people are gonna kill me for this. It's just what the plot on the show says to do :(

Well, this was fun. Walking around New York City with Jack. Hugging Jack for warmth. Holding Jack's hands so her hands won't get frostbite. Yup, this was the funnest time Liz ever had. She smiled at him and when they were centimeters, no, millimeters, away from each other's face, Avery stopped them. 
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Where do you think you're going with this Jack?"
"Oh, um, I was checking something in Lemon's chin."
"Oh, sure. It looks like you were about to kiss her."
"Ha! Kiss this person? With her food cravings, who knows what's been in her mouth?"
Liz felt like she'd been stabbed in the chest. 
Jack and Avery shared a laugh.
"Come on, Avery. Let's get something to eat."
She was just about to burst into tears when Jack whispered to her in the distance.
"Dinner at 7, right?" 
He had a smile on.
Liz just shook her head. Even from far away, he could see her hurting. It was a bad thing to say, but he had to for his own sake. 
Liz just sat there, where they were moments ago, and cried.
