Chapter 4
The music blared from the speakers at the digital bean as Lizzie walked nervously through the door. She looked up and saw Gordo and Miranda sitting at a table near the computers. She walked over uneasily to their table and sat down. "Hey Miranda, Gordo," she said.
"Oh hey Lizzie!" Miranda said with a smile.
"Hi Lizzie."
"Hey Gordo."
No one spoke for a minute until Miranda broke the silence, "Oh! I forgot what time it was, I have to go baby sit!"
"Ok, bye Miranda," Gordo said.
"Yeah, um, bye Miranda," Lizzie stuttered. Miranda waved and walked off. Once she turned the corner, she hid behind a table to listen in.
"Miranda said you were going to tell me something."
"Yeah about that, it's not important."
"O-k...," Gordo said confused.
"I think I have to go too," Lizzie said quickly and ran off for the third time. She was out the door of the digital bean and on her way home before Gordo could get a word in edgewise. Gordo stood up and walked over to the exit also. Half way there he tripped over something and fell.
"Oh, he-hey Gordo!" Miranda said laughing guiltily.
"I thought you left!"
"Yeah," Miranda said slowly. "Well, see, uh."
"Did you guys plan this whole thing or something?"
"Other than Lizzie running out after telling you she liked you..."
"She what!!!"
"Oops, I think I'd better go!" Miranda said blushing.
"Yeah, me too."
"Don't tell her I told you! Please? She would be so mad if she found out!"
"She already has," Lizzie said. She had come back to get her purse that she had left on the table.
"Oh no....."
