Gordo walked in weary finally getting home at 6 from carrying around all of Kate & Claire's bags. He flung himself onto his bed & grabbed his pillow & yelled on top of his lungs into it.
*****
Lizzie & I walked up the stairs to Gordo's room where his mom said we could wait until he returned before she left for a meeting. "I wonder what's going on." Lizzie said looking at me, I shrugged. No offence against Gordo or anything but all I really want is to get all my homework done we had brought it along since nether one of us had any clue on the Algebra. He was already in Honor's Geometry, for he had taken algebra in eighth. We jumped when we heard stomping up the stairs, & saw the door open as a tired Gordo threw himself onto the bed & yell on top of his lungs into the poor pillow. "Gordo!" I snatched the pillow from him, "What's wrong with you?" I asked looking down at him. I couldn't help but let my eyes travel up & down on him, okay, he was hot. I admit it, one of my long time BFF's was hot. I immediately regretted the harsh tone that I had spoken in as Lizzie moved forward & put a hand over his, "What she means is are you okay?" Lizzie, of courses, prefect, sweet, the nice one, as always. Don't get me wrong, Lizzie's great & all, but she always gets the attention. She wants Ethan, she was wants popularity, she wants Gordo. Well watch her get all of them, thought Gordo will probably be the hardest to get. She was perky, blonde, pretty. Sometimes I feel like her shadow, so I make sure I get noticed, whether it's doing daring things like sticking up for myself, well actually Lizzie was the one who did it, but I took the blame. I mean now I know I'm so much her shadow anymore, because they know I was one of the few who lived to tell about it with out being a total outcast. But when the student president campaign was going on, Gordo went up to her & told her was the best, the bravest, the coolest. That seriously hurt, but I knew that it was Lizzie that both of us were best friends with, we where just part of the package to each other. She was the one that became the model, but hey, she did quit for us. I have to give her slack on that one. I guess maybe that's why she's my BFF, we're total opposites.
"Kate's blackmailing me." He muttered. We both paled, "On what?" she asked. He looked up at us, "She has a tape." That's all he would say about what she was blackmailing him with other then, "I have to be her fuckin' slave for the next 6 god damn months." I have to say. I was slightly taken back for Gordo didn't curse often but right now it sound so natural for some reason. Lizzie & I left after half an hour cause he said he was too tired carrying around shopping bags. He had fallen asleep right in front of us on the floor next to his bed leaning on it, Lizzie smiled & brushed his hair out of his face. She so confirmed my suspesnenes about her liking him.

The gang & I walked into David's house to see if he made it out of Kate & Claire's clutches alive. I walked up to his room & found him fast asleep. William helped me get him on the bed. I kissed his nose & smiled down at him as William gagged. I rolled my eyes, "Grow up William!" I hit him playfully on the shoulder once we were out the door, I didn't want to disturb David. "OW! Violet! That hurt!" did I mention that even with the punk look, William's still a sissy? I laughed & went downstairs to help the gang prepare dinner. We did this a lot because in our gang a lot of our parents were never home so we'd all go over one persons house. I helped Jenny pull down the shutters & close all the curtains because though out the whole gang, no one really knew about us, not including William's family that is. Jenny went to out school too, & was one of my best friends. She had black hair with dark brown highlights with brown eyes, a little short, & Chinese. I could smell the pizza that people had brought along & hear people pulling out ice cream & chocolates out of the fridge. "How is he?" Jenny asked, she like David had parents that were shrinks & never home. My parents were just plain irresponsible & neglectful. I narrowed my eyes at the thought but banished them when I heard David. I felt his arms encircle me from behind, "Hello firefly." It had been a nickname he made up for me, I smiled blushing happily. "Hey there sleepyhead." I said teasingly to him & bent my head back to kiss him. Jenny smirked & got & left. "Hm, what smells good?" I rolled my eyes, guys, I'll never get them. He grinned down at me & I grabbed his hand & pulled him to the kitchen. His eyes grew wide like a little boy's on Christmas as he saw the pizza & curly fries. He was about to attack it before Jenny reached a hand out & stopped him. "Nope! Not until we get out all the sodas! You know that!" she pretended to scold while handing him a small dish of curly fries when no one was looked. He grabbed it grinning, "Thanks shrimp, you're a life saver!" She glared daggers at him but gave why to laughing as I did at the comical sight of him stuffing his mouth with curly fries. "What!? These are really good!"
