A Surprise Guest
Chapter 6: Breakdown
Lizzie had been in a terrible mood for the rest of the day. Gordo couldn't blame her. She had tried to reach out and patch things up with Kate and it had completely backfired. Inviting Ronny was low. Even for Kate. Lizzie had reunited with him in high school, and dated him for 2 years. Gordo could understand how tough it must have been for Lizzie to see that name.
The next morning, Lizzie awoke to the chirping sound of her alarm clock. 6:00. She hated getting up so early. She pulled herself out of bed, and wandered to the kitchen, feeling sick again. It was a daily routine: wake up, feel gross, eat, go to work. Lizzie figured she was stressed about everything that was happening. Kate's reply had just made things 10 times worse.
"Hey." Gordo greeted Lizzie, as she entered the kitchen.
"Hi." She replied, faking a half smile.
"I know you are upset, but it's still going to be the best day of our lives." Remarked Gordo, trying to cheer her up. "We're getting married. I don't know about you, but for me, it's like realizing a lifelong dream."
Lizzie smiled a real smile as she gave Gordo a kiss. "Me too." She agreed, slightly happier by Gordo's words. He always knew just what to say.
"Good." He replied. "So, just forget about Kate, and focus on planning the rest of the wedding and running the store."
"Oh no!" exclaimed Lizzie.
"What?" asked Gordo, panicked.
"I completely forgot! I have a meeting with that tv show producer about costumes for the new episodes!" she exclaimed. "And it's in half an hour!"
"You just go get ready, and I'll take care of everything around here." Gordo told her.
"Ok. Thank you!" she yelled, as she ran to the bathroom.
~ Later that day~
Miranda and Lizzie were walking through the mall on their lunch break. Miranda was walking along at her normal, hurried pace, while Lizzie lagged behind a little.
"You ok McGuire?" she asked, as she glanced back.
"Yeah fine." Lizzie replied. "You know, you won't be able to call me McGuire much longer."
Miranda laughed. Lizzie did too, but with a look of pain on her face. Almost like it hurt her to laugh.
"Are you sure you're ok?" asked Miranda, sounding concerned.
"I just have a really bad headache." Explained Lizzie. "I think it's part of that virus."
"You've had that for awhile." Remarked Miranda. "I mean, I know viruses can last a long time, but 3 weeks? That's gotta be a record or something."
"I'm fine." Lizzie assured her. "It's probably just stress."
"I bet you're right." Decided Miranda. "I've read about these people who have so much to do that they freak out, get physically sick. Then they have these panic attacks, you know? They pass out and." Miranda looked behind her at a very pale Lizzie. "Are you ok Lizzie?"
The room started to spin around and Lizzie felt very faint, the next thing she knew, she was falling backwards.
"Lizzie!" exclaimed Miranda, her voice full of worry. "Quick! Someone call an ambulance!"
TBC!
