They packed all their things except the television, computer, clothes, and
the furniture. They couldn't take the furniture with them so they were
having a moving sale.
The next day was Thursday. Her mother came in and handed her a crisp $100 bill.
"whats this?"she asked
"I got a bonus before I started working. This is all I can give you though because it was only a thousand dollars. But after I get my first paycheck, we're hitting chanel and dolce & gabanna!"
Lizzie decided to go to the mall with Miranda and Gordo.
They passed hot topic and lizzie started talking
"I want to go in there and by like punk clothes or goth clothes."
"Why?" Miranda said, disgusted.
"I don't know, to piss of my mom, and so I don't look like all those spoiled bubblegum princesses in L.A.
"your mom gave you a hundred dollars lizzie! Don't you want to buy something you actually like?"
"I guess those clothes are kinda cool." Lizzie replied
"I think it's a great idea, it's cool that you want to be original" gordo said, sticking up for her
"Gordo, do you have to do this every time? Can't we get through a day together without hearing one of your boring, patronizing speeches about how we're shallow and mindless and stupid?" Miranda yelled
Gordo looked hurt
"Miranda apoligize right now!" lizzie said, surprised at her friend's behavior.
"Maybe I should just go home." Gordo said quietly
"No! you have every right to be here and I want you here." Said Lizzie
"I'm sorry Gordo, I guess I've just been on edge since I found out Lizzie was moving. I'm really sorry and I want you to stay."
"that's okay. You did use the word 'patronizing' correctly."
"Okay. Lets just look in there."
Lizzie picked a few punk pieces, not enough to become totally punk, but she was thinking about it. She bought some plaid pants, suspender, a black dickies dress, a bunch of patches to put on it, a pair of leather doc martins with white stars, a sleevless white oxford dress shirt with a black tie and straps on it, and she paid with the credit card her mom had given her and made a mental note to deposit the $100.
For the rest of the day she hung out at Miranda's house in her backyard by her pool eating ice cream and reminiscing with her friends.
"This is how it should be, this is fun." Said lizzie
"yeah, but we have to do one last big thing, like a party." Said Miranda
"and we gotta visit every landmark in this town." Said gordo, as he pushed lizzie into the pool.
"hey!" she said as she pulled him in and pool and climbed out.
"see? This is what I'm talking about, good times!" said lizzie as Miranda handed her a towel. "I don't want to leave. Especially not this soon. I'm probably gonna hate L.A."
"I think it might be cool, but we're gonna miss you." Said Miranda
"we'll be able to visit each other a lot." Said Gordo
"I guess." Said lizzie
"we should have a sleepover tonight, movie marathon, pigging out, cheesey games, what could be better?" said gordo.
"that sounds like fun. Lets go get stuff."
A/N: I know it's pretty boring so far, but it'll get better I promise!
