The Rest of the Story-Chapter 1
Party
*Hey! Okay here it is boys and girls! The sequel to "All I want for Christmas is You"! Aren't you excited?!?! I am! Anyways-at the end of the story I said they found their mates. But they don't know it yet. They've gotta be asked first. . .INTRO!
"Oh I'm going to miss you so much!" Matt whispered in Miranda's ear. They were caught in a hug in front of the refrigerator. Often they'd be caught kissing in weird and random places. But face it. They couldn't keep their hands off each other.
"Shhhh. We still have today." Miranda said biting her bottom lip, a "Lizzie" trademark she'd picked up throughout the years. Matt kissed her softly and pushed her back up against the refrigerator. "But we can't do anything now."
"Ah! Come on!" Matt begged her with pleading eyes.
"I can't! I promised your sister we'd go shopping." Miranda regretted her decision then, as much as she loved shopping.
"Can't that wait? I'm leaving tomorrow!" Matt's leave was over and he was returning to Iraq for another 6 months. That would give him 1 year total and he'd be able to choose if he wanted to come home or stay. Matt began kissing down her bare neckline.
"I'm afraid it can't. And stop! You're grossing me out." Lizzie announced entering the room with Gordo following close behind her.
"Why? You and Gordo kiss in front of us all the time!" Matt protested.
"But I'm not your little brother or your best friend!" Lizzie hit him on the shoulder signaling for them to move so she could open the refrigerator.
"But you're my best friend and my other best friend." Miranda stated pointedly and kissed Matt quickly on the lips. "I'll kiss him when I please."
"I have no objections." Matt placed his hands on either side of her waist.
"That looks like fun." Gordo whispered softly in Lizzie's ear. She whirled to face him.
"That it does." She said seductively. She wrapped one arm around his neck and traced her fingers around his pant line with the other arm.
"Lizzie. Don't tease." Gordo said, breaths coming short.
"Oh alright." She removed her hands from him and turned to face Matt and Miranda who were busily making out now. "Miranda!" They broke apart quickly.
"What?" Miranda asked obviously annoyed.
"We have to go shopping now!" Lizzie walked over to her friend and dragged her away from her boyfriend. Matt rushed to kiss her goodbye quickly before they were out the door. Gordo appeared standing next to Matt as they watched the girls pull the car out of the driveway.
"Women." They said in unison.
"Lizzie! I was having fun! He's leaving tomorrow! Couldn't this have waited until later?" Miranda complained as they drove towards downtown Hilldridge. Lizzie released her hand from the wheel long enough to hit Miranda on the back of the head. "Ow!"
"We're going shopping for stuff to throw Matt a goodbye party. . .duh!?!"
"What? Nobody told me!" Miranda crossed her arms.
"Because you would have told him. And by the time we get back from shopping Matt will already be gone shopping with Gordo for who knows what. That's when we are decorating and by the time they get home it's time for the party." Lizzie made a sharp turning into a shopping center.
"Why are they going shopping together?"
"I guess because they have nothing else to do and I told Gordo to get him out of the house."
"Oh." They hopped out of the car and went into the party supply store.
"Let's look in here." Matt pointed to the store they were approaching.
"That one is pretty. . .big. Miranda would love this." Matt pointed down through the glass.
"Yeah but look at this one! Doesn't it just scream Lizzie? And scream 'you don't have enough money for me?" Gordo cursed himself for spending so much money at Christmas. He wanted to purchase the most expensive gift he'd probably ever give Lizzie and he was close to broke.
"Man. I'm so nervous. I wonder what she'll say?" Matt sat down on the stool in front of the counter and put his head in his hands.
"Don't worry about it. You've known Miranda as long as I have, but I know she loves you." Gordo said continuing to glance at the prices.
"Yeah I know! But isn't it a little too soon? We've only been going out for a month."
"Stop second guessing yourself. Now we decided to do this together because we've known each other for so long. . .all of us. But you've got to go first because you're leaving. So come on McGuire! You're acting like Lizzie."
"That was some pep talk." Matt sighed. "Okay. But let's leave here, their stuff is way to expensive." Gordo smiled and they walked out of Gordon's Jewelers.
"Shhhh! Here they come!" Lizzie whispered to everyone in the room. The lights were off and they were hiding obviously behind objects. Matt unlocked the door and Gordo followed him in behind him.
"SURPRISE!" Everybody jumped out from where they were hiding and threw their arms up.
"Oh my God!" Matt took a step back. "You guys scarred me! Hey everyone!" Matt said hello to Kate, who'd become a lot nicer once they got to college and figured out popularity didn't matter anymore, Ethan, Larry, Lanny, Melina, Lizzie and of coarse Miranda. Miranda came and kissed him softly.
"This is why I had to go shopping." Miranda smiled and kissed him again.
"It's okay. Not that I wouldn't rather be alone with you." Miranda wrapped her arms around his neck and laughed.
"Hey guys! We have guests!" Lizzie interrupted them and they separated reluctantly.
"Just get this over with and then we can be alone." Miranda whispered in his ear.
"LET'S GET THIS OVER WITH PEOPLE!" Matt screamed and music began to play. Miranda laughed.
*Chapter 1 sucked! But I had to get away from Christmas and on with their lifes. . .So the next chapter will be Matt's departure.
