It was snowing outside. Lizzie was sitting by the window. She didn't want
to go outside today. It was too cold. She was use to California. Nice warm
weather. Now it's, like, 16 degrees outside and it's snowing. Matt was
running around outside. He picked up a snowball and nailed David it the
back of his head. Of course no one calls him David, except his parents and
Grandparents. Everyone knows him as Gordo. Now Mrs. McGuire and Mrs. Gordon
got back from the super market. If you haven't figured it out yet they are
on the McGuire-Gordon trip. Every winter, during the break, the McGuire
clan and Gordon trio pack everything up and leave work and school behind
for a week to go to Maine. This has been going on since the year before
Lizzie and Gordo were born, and they haven't skipped a year yet.
"Hey Lizzie, how are you today?" Asked her mother.
"Fine." Lizzie answered absent-mindedly.
"What's on your mind?" Asked Jo.
"Nothing, I just wish Miranda or someone was here or something. I mean, Gordo and Matt get to hang out and stuff, and that's great but." Lizzie was interrupted.
"But you wish a girl was here. Cause it's not the same." Mrs. Gordon finished.
"Yeah." Lizzie said.
"Well, how about you help us get dinner ready. Your dad and Mr. Gordon will be home in about an hour." Mrs. Gordon said, walking to the kitchen.
Then Gordo and Matt busted through the door. "Hey mom, what's for dinner?" Matt asked.
"Well, nothing yet, we have to cook it." Jo said to her son.
Lizzie got up to wash her hands and see what she has to do.
"Lizzie, can you peel these potatoes?" Mrs. Gordon asked.
Then Mr. Gordon and Mr. McGuire came through the door, skis in hand.
"Hey honey, what's for dinner?" Sam asked.
"Food." Jo Replied. She was now starting to season the chicken.
The guys went to warm up from being outside all day.
About an hour later Jo was telling Matt to set the table.
When they were sitting down to eat the dads started telling everyone about there skiing today. They were so into the conversation that they didn't know that the kids were talking among themselves.
"So, geek breath, what did you do today?" Matt asked Lizzie.
"Well, weasel, I stayed in and decided to read your journal, when I was done with that I went and wrote all your deepest thoughts in a letter to Melina and helped cook dinner." Lizzie finished.
"You read my Journal?" Matt said.
"You have a journal?" Lizzie asked.
"Ok guys, do you always have to fight?" Gordo asked.
"Yes." They both answered.
"If you had a little brother you would know Gordo." Lizzie said.
Later that night Lizzie got ready for bed. She had her own room. And Gordo and Matt shared one. Lizzie decided to write in her diary.
'Once again I was stuck inside today. Well, I chose to be but still. Sometimes I wish there was another girl here, I mean, if you were stuck here in my circumstances you would too. I can't talk to Matt and I know I can't talk to Gordo. That would be too weird. Well, I think Gordo is coming now. Write later. XOXO Lizzie.'
"Hey." Gordo said. Coming in and sitting on the edge of her bed. Lizzie was laying on her stomach. She sat up and put her diary away. "Hey." She said. "What's up?"
"Not much, didn't see much of you today."
"I know. I just needed sometime to myself to think. But I think I'll get out tomorrow." Lizzie said.
"Good." Gordo said.
"Kids, time for bed." Mr. Gordon called.
"Well, I have to go now. Good night." Gordo said.
"Good night." Lizzie said, then Gordo leaned in and kissed her. They stayed like that for a moment but then the second warning came.
"Lights off." Mrs. McGuire said.
"See you tomorrow. Sweet dreams." Gordo said.
"Good night. Love you." Lizzie said.
"Love you too." Gordo said, then left.
When Gordo got back to his room Matt must have been waiting. "Finished smooching with my sister?" Matt asked.
Gordo sat down on his bed. "Shut up." He said, then through a pillow at him, turned the light of and went to sleep.
