DISCLAIMER: I don't own any part of Lizzie McGuire. All I do own is this
story, and my own fictional characters.

CHAPTER 4 OF CRUSHED BY LOVE: I have you all to myself, just this last once
Matt didn't really know until today what it was like to stare down a gun barrel. A shiver went down his spine, and the cold weather really didn't help. John tightened his grip on the gun, and the expression on his face was pure horror. Matt could feel sweat run down his neck, and it made his suit wet.
"Well well well McGuire!" John scolded in a harsh tone.
"John, give it up! You're not helping in anyway! Face it, if you shoot me, you won't be doing any favours for the both of us!"
"SHUTUP MCGUIRE!"
"Okay. Okay. I'll just get shot then shall I?"
"Well that's what might just happen!"
"Look John, you're not going to get Miranda back!" Lizzie had Miranda cradled in her arms, and they were both shaking.
"I never knew why Miranda had a best friend like you! You always fight, its not like you have any respect for each other, you're just two stupid idiots that deserve to be dead!"
Lizzie was truly offended, but Miranda didn't seem to notice.
"Didn't your vows mean anything?"
"Look, you shut up, this is Miranda & I's problem!"
"You mean it's just your problem!"
"You McGuire's, you must have a death wish, because you're messing with me!"
"Give it up! You're the one with the death wish!"
"You want to get out of this?"
"YES! So just piss off!"
"No, it doesn't work that way. I have the power! Give me back my wife, and then I'll let you go. Also, hand over your phones, you aint gonna call anyone. You understand?"
"Understood." Matt & Lizzie's plan was soiled.
John led Matt & Lizzie to the front yard. He had them at gunpoint. He pushed them out of the drive. Matt & Lizzie just bolted. Lizzie had left her mobile in the car. But did this mean Miranda was saved?
Lizzie cried & shook as she dialed 911. As she finally got through, she screamed out the situation. The police were on their way. Now this game of cat & mouse was a deadly race against time.
Matt had to calm Lizzie down. Her rubbed her back and gave her support. Matt was scared too, but he had to keep his chin up and fight. As they heard faint police sirens they were overjoyed. But, Miranda could be dead for all they knew.
"Now, I have you all to myself, we'll go to heaven together Miranda, its what we wanted."
"We?"
"Remember, I made a promise to you when we got married."
"More like a mistake, I hate you! I hope you die, and even if you don't kill me, you'll still go to hell, because that's were you belong. Whatever happened to when we were happy?"
"Happy?" "You know, we had everything, and there was love made practically every night, what changed all that?"
"You're so daft! There was never any love! If it wasn't for your father, I would've never had to of married you!"
"You never loved me?"
"Well of course not! I'm sure someone could've told you about my affair!"
"Affair? You dirty bastard! Who the hell do you think you are?"
"Who do I think I am? Look at you!"
"That is it, come on kill me, I haven't got the time for this!"
"NOT SO FAST!" A swat team emerged. They were practically at every angle of the garden. So Miranda wasn't going to die after all.
"DROP THE GUN AND PUT YOUR HANDS ON YOUR HEAD!"
John walked over to them. He cried and fell to the ground. A doctor sped to help Miranda, and Matt & Lizzie were there in a flash. As Miranda was being loaded in to the ambulance, John cried out:
"This isn't over yet Sanchez, you bitch!"
Then, at that point in time, Miranda fell into unconsciousness.
As Matt & Lizzie were walking to the car, they saw the ambulance speed off into the night. Was Miranda okay? They didn't realize the hell that was ahead of them as they drove to the hospital.
They also had to call Gordo & Miranda's parents.
"Gordo? Liz, you haven't heard from him in months, what's he gonna care?"
"He's our other best friend, he'll care heaps!" Lizzie snapped, and her eyes shot up.
"Lizzie, this is NOT the time for fighting. Everything's going to be fine. You call Gordo, and I'll deal with the parents."
"Thanks Matt, you're a true angel!"
Matt smiled, but it was only a small smile. He loved his sister so much. If you'd asked him that say, 15 years ago, the response might have been just a little bit different.

2 hours later
The wait was killing her. Was Miranda going to pull through? Lizzie didn't really realize how much she loved Miranda until that night. How could've
she her get married to him? Why had she made so many previous mistakes?
Could she ever put things right again?
"Matt! Lizzie!" It was mum & dad. Time to face the music.
"Oh my gosh! Are you kids okay?" Sam was so worried; Jo was consoling Mr. & Mrs. Sanchez while Sam was giving hugs to Matt & Lizzie.
"Daddy, is she gonna be okay?"
"Lizzie, sweetheart, we all know Miranda is a fighter. She'll pull through."
"No she won't! Life isn't as straightforward as that!"
Lizzie ran. She didn't exactly know where she ran to, but she just kept running. She found herself outside, breathing heavily. The cigarette smoke wasn't helping either. She then just sat on the gritty pavement and held her legs tightly to her chest.
Would she ever see Miranda's gorgeous brown eyes ever again?

Well, I hope you liked that chapter! I'll also tell you one other thing, you probably think my spelling is weird and that I live in Australia, so there will be a bit of difference in the spelling. I'll have the next chapter up very soon, because we start our two months holidays at the end of the year, so I'm going to try and see how far I can get with the story! Please R & R, it really does help! So ciao for now,
