After a long day of walking, anger over Kate and Matt bugging her, Lizzie McGuire made it back to the campsite. Sweaty and tired she was almost about to go back to her cabin when what she saw just destroyed her. Kate was speaking to Brett, but it looked more than talking, it was flirting.
Toon Lizzie: 'Let me get my hands on her… I'll, I'll… AGHH!'
'Hello Brett, Kate.'
Brett had a confused look on his face, as did Kate.
'You know each other?' Kate and Brett said to Lizzie at the same time.
'Where are Kelly and Claire?' She said to both of them.
'Kelly's in her cabin, reading.' Brett responded.
'Not that's it any of your business but Claire broke her leg and can't go out for the next few days.' Kate told her.
'Wait! How do you two know each other?' Brett asked.
'We go to school with each other.' Lizzie told him.
The girls stared the other one off. Lizzie was furious.
Toon Lizzie: 'How dare Kate take away a boy who I could, kind of, like, but is totally confused over.'
Lizzie walked off too furious to hear Brett screaming at Lizzie to wait. Lizzie ran into her cabin and threw her self on her bed. Brett walked in.
'Lizzie, what's the matter? Kate and I were just talking.' Brett tried to explain to her.
'Really? Promise?' Lizzie asked.
'Yes, promise, cross my heart and hope to die. Why don't you come back outside, you can still talk to me, come on.' Brett answered.
Lizzie followed him outside where Kate was waiting. After speaking for a while Kate and Lizzie slowly started to ease up on each other.
'That's like the time you and me went to that movie and ate all those chocolate's and felt sick afterwards.' Lizzie reminisced with Kate.
'Yeah, that was like totally funny.' Kate said.
Toon Lizzie: 'Isn't it funny, without Claire around Kate has no one to show off in front of.'
'Well girls, I must be off. Speak to you later.' Brett excused himself.
Once he was out of earshot Kate had to ask-
'Do you think he is anything like Gordo? It's like Bizarro-Gordo.'
'Umm… yeah, kind of, I hardly noticed.' Lizzie lied.
'You like him don't you?' Kate asked
'How did you know?'
'The way you look at him, the way you smile at him, it's like totally obvious.'
Lizzie blushed.
'Don't you think its kind of strange, he looks, acts and talks like Gordo and you're attracted to him?' Kate boldly asked.
Lizzie blushed even more.
'Lizzie, its like so clear what's happening, you like Gordo and your transferring this love onto someone who is exactly like him.'
Lizzie was so red now she looked like a tomato.
'Lizzie, the whole school knows that you like Gordo and he likes you, but you're both too shy to say anything about it, just tell your true feelings to him and ask him out already!'
Lizzie looked at Kate blankly. Something had to be done, the question was- what?
Sunday afternoon approached, it was time for the McGuire family to leave and for the goodbye's to be said.
'See you Kelly, it was great to meet you.' Lizzie told her new friend.
'Yeah, bye.' She responded.
Matt was saying goodbye to his new friend, Buck. Lizzie moved towards Brett.
'See you Brett, I don't think I can forget you to soon.' Lizzie said.
Just as Lizzie was about to go into the car, Kate came up to her.
'See you around school McGuire, remember what I said.'
'I wont. See you Kate.'
Lizzie got into the car and left the campsite a little more confident about herself.
