-Lizzie's house-
-Friday-
Lizzie tidied up the living room quickly before checking her hair in the mirror. She had finally convinced her parents to leave and take Matt with them. The house was empty and Miranda, Gordo, and Ethan were on their way over. Ethan was supposed to stop at Blockbuster and pick up a movie.
DING DONG!
Lizzie rushed to answer the door. Miranda and Gordo stepped in.
"Hey guys! Ethan should be here any minute. Make yourselves comfortable, I'll be right back," Lizzie smiled, than turned to go upstairs. Miranda followed her to her room.
"Why don't you have that Tommy Girl perfume on?" Miranda asked, leaning over to smell Lizzie.
"Because," Lizzie backed up in surprise, "Ethan doesn't really like it."
"Well, Gordo DOES," Miranda sighed, picked up the perfume bottle, and squirted three quick puffs of spray on Lizzie's neck and arms.
"Whoa, what's the big idea?" Lizzie scrunched up her nose and waved the thick air.
"Perfect outfit! I remember Gordo saying he liked that shirt on you 'cause it brought out the color in your eyes!" Miranda commented as the doorbell rang again.
"Ohh, Ethan's here!" Lizzie smiled, grabbed her bracelet and slipped it on before rushing downstairs to let Ethan in.
"Hey Lizzie," Ethan smiled and leaned in to kiss her.
"Hey! Let's make popcorn!" Miranda yanked Lizzie towards the kitchen. "Gordo's in the living room! You can go in there!" she called over her shoulder to Ethan, who stood in a surprised mid-lean.
"What's the big idea?" Lizzie exclaimed.
"Nothing! I just want some popcorn," Miranda answered weakly, not able to meet Lizzie's eyes.
"Miranda, does this have anything to do with me and Gordo?" Lizzie demanded.
"You and me what?" Gordo asked from the doorway. Both girls turned in surprise.
"Oh, you and me… having a great fondness for popcorn!" Lizzie said, holding up a package of Jolly Time popcorn.
"Yeah… Well, I just came to get a drink," Gordo said, grabbing a can of soda from a fridge. He looked at both girls suspiciously before walking out.
"You make the popcorn, I'm going to go spend time with my boyfriend," Lizzie said, following Gordo to the living room.
"Chips! I want chips instead!" Miranda grabbed a bag off the counter and hurried after the others. When they got to living room, Lizzie sat next to Ethan. Gordo was on her other side. "I'll put in the movie," Miranda said. She grabbed the tape from where Ethan had set it down and took it out, reading the title, "Night of the Bloody Corpses" out loud.
Lizzie and Gordo looked at each other in surprise.
"Hey! This is isn't the movie that you guys saw when you… Is it?" Miranda grinned wickedly.
"When who what?" Ethan asked confusedly.
"Nothing," Lizzie answered, practically shrinking down into the cushions of the couch.
Miranda smiled, put in the tape, and sat down on the couch, pushing Lizzie towards Gordo so that she could sit next to Ethan.
"Hey! I think I should sit next to Ethan!" Lizzie said.
"Don't worry, Gordo won't bite," Miranda said. "This is my favorite part of the couch!" she wiggled for a few seconds before turning to Ethan. "Turn off the lights please." Ethan switched off the lamp.
They watched the movie in silence. Lizzie was very stiff, and very aware that her leg was against Gordo's. She studied him out of the corner of her eye. He had grown up over the years, and was a lot more mature looking. She wondered if kissing him now would be the same as kissing him back than.
"Lizzie, you ok?" Gordo asked.
Lizzie sat up straight. She hadn't even realized she had been slowly leaning towards him when she was lost in her thoughts. "Yeah," she answered, grateful that the dark lighting hid her blush. She looked ahead, keeping her eyes on the screen, even when she felt him lean towards her.
"This brings back memories doesn't it?" Gordo whispered. His mouth was right next to her ear and she could feel his warm breath on her neck. She nodded faintly as she turned towards him. The movie was nearly over now, and the infamous kissing scene on the edge of the graveyard was playing, the scene that had spurred that unforgettable kiss years ago. Their faces were just inches apart.
Ethan's sneeze broke the moment. Lizzie and Gordo both sat up straight again, looking at the screen. Miranda winced. Ethan wiped his hand on his sleeve.
"I gotta go use the restroom," Lizzie said quietly and left the room.
The credits were rolling now, and Gordo stood up, checking his watch. "I know I said I could stay longer, but I just remembered that I have something to do tomorrow morning, so I should go."
"Well, you're my ride, so I guess I'm coming too," Miranda said, standing up. A few minutes later, everyone had said goodbye and Gordo and Miranda were driving off.
