It was a beautiful summer day in Hillridge, CA. Lizzie, Miranda, Gordo, Larry, Ethan, Kate, Matt and Melina are all hanging out at the beach. Lizzie, Gordo, Miranda, Ethan, Kate and Larry are playing volley-ball. Matt and Melina were keeping score. As it was getting dark, Matt & Melina were starting to get worried.
Matt - "Guys, don't you think we should go home soon?"
Lizzie - "Matt, don't be a pest. We're almost done with the game anyways. We'll be done in 5 minutes."
Matt - "Fine, but I still think we should leave."
Lizzie - "Matt, just shut up & keep score!"
Matt - "Fine!"
Lizzie - "Fine!"
-5 MINUTES LATER-
Matt - "Ok, Lizzie. It's been 5 minutes."
Lizzie - "Well, you're a party pooper."
Matt - "You said five minutes and it's been five minutes."
Lizzie - "Oh, fine. Come on, guys."
Miranda - "Ok, just a sec."
They gathered up all of their stuff, and headed to their cars. The sky started to turn dark. Thunder rolled in the clouds. Lightning lit up the night sky.
-Lizzie's car-
Lizzie's driving, Gordo is in the front passenger seat and Matt and Melina are in the back seat.
Matt - "Aren't you glad we left when we did?"
Lizzie - "Whatever. So what was our score, anyways?"
Matt - "I don't know."
Lizzie - "Well, check."
Matt - "Fine."
Matt grabs the piece of paper they used as the score-card.
Matt - "Um.You, Gordo and Miranda: 12. Ethan, Kate and Larry: 14."
Lizzie - "They won by two points! I can't believe it! Don't you think we should've won, Gordo?"
Gordo - "Well, yeah, but-"
Lizzie - "But, what?"
Gordo - "Never mind."
Lizzie - "No, tell me."
Gordo - "It's not important."
Lizzie - "If you don't tell me, David Gordon, you are gonna wish you had."
Gordo - "Trust me, it's not important."
She reached over and pinched his elbow (his weak spot).
Gordo - "No, not the elbow. Anything but the elbow."
Gordo squirmed in his seat, begging her to stop.
Gordo - "Ok, ok, I'll tell."
Lizzie - "Good."
Gordo - "I was gonna say I think you're a better player and we should have a re-match."
Lizzie - "Now, aren't ya glad you got that off your chest?"
Gordo - "No, you got it off my chest. And no more elbow pinching."
Lizzie - "Sure, for now."
-Kate's car-
Kate's driving and Ethan's in the front passenger seat. Larry and Miranda are in the back seat.
Miranda - "So, where are we going? And who won?"
Kate - "Well, we're going to get some pizza and I'm not sure who won. Why don't you call Matt on my cell phone and ask him?"
Miranda - "Ok."
Kate handed Miranda her phone and she dialed Lizzie's number.
Lizzie - "Hello?"
Miranda - "Hi, Lizzie. Is Matt there?"
Lizzie - "Matt? Why do you want Matt?"
Miranda - "I need to know who won."
Lizzie - "Well, I could tell you that. They won by two points. 14 to 12."
Miranda - "Really? Darn. Ok, thanks. Bye"
She hung up and set the phone down.
Ethan - "So who won?"
Miranda - "You guys. By two points, 14 to 12."
Ethan - "Sweet!"
Miranda - "Let's have a re-match next weekend."
Kate - "You're on."
