The Reason
"Lizzie, someone is at the door for you!" Jo McGuire called. Lizzie already knew who it was, and she still sort of liked him, so she put on some make up, fixed her hair, and put on a cute outfit earlier that morning. She walked down the stairs, expecting to see Ronnie, but instead she saw Gordo "Oh hi" said sounding a little too upset. "Hi Lizzie, if I knew you didn't want me here, I wouldn't have come." He joked. She smiled a little. She let him in and as soon as the door closed, someone rang the doorbell. Lizzie felt a little worried because she didn't know how Gordo would react. She opened the door and saw Ronnie. "Hi Lizzie" he said smiling. "Lizzie what's he doing here?" asked Gordo. "Well I saw him yester day at the digital bean, and he wanted to tell me something, we didn't have time there so we agreed he could tell me today one a walk." She explained. "Oh ok." said Gordo, "I just came here to drop of a CD Miranda asked me to." He handed her a CD and left. She turned her attention to Ronnie, "Hi" she said. "Hi" he responded. "Ok I'm ready, so let's go." Lizzie said, and she knew she sounded a little too excited, but she didn't care. They started walking and finally Ronnie started talking. "Ok Lizzie this might come as a shock to you, but the real reason I had to break up with you is because, well, my parents were mad because my grades were dropping, and they asked me why, and I said I didn't know, so they 'grounded' me by saying I had to break up with you," he ended up saying, "I'm really sorry I had to do that. I didn't like seeing you cry like that." He looked to see Lizzie's reaction. All she could do was stare. "Ok Ronnie, but why did you wait so long to tell me?" she asked. "Well because, it took me awhile to get my grades back up, so when I finally did they ungrounded me." He explained. "Well did you just want to tell me that, and never talk to me again or", but he cut her off by placing his lips on hers. She was shocked, it wasn't like their first kiss, and this one lasted a little longer. When he pulled away, she couldn't help but smile. "Lizzie, I know you have no reason to trust me, but will you be my girlfriend again?" he asked hopefully. Lizzie was just confused on what to do. "Ronnie," she began, "can I get back to you on that?" "Sure" Ronnie knew she wouldn't just come running back into his arms, but he missed her a lot. "But Lizzie, can we be friends even if you don't want to be boyfriend and girlfriend?" "Sure" Lizzie said, "Well, Ronnie I have to go I'll tell you tomorrow" "Ok, bye Lizzie" he said, and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
