AUTHOR'S NOTE: Hey, readers. Sorry, I didn't update as fast as the other
chapters. Been busy wit real life stuff. Now, on w/ the story.
LIZZIE'S P.O.V.
Lizzie looked around. The lake? This couldn't be the whole surprise could it? No, it couldn't. Lizzie looked at Gordo, and knew that there was more up his sleeve than just a trip to the lake.
"The lake Gordo?" Asked Lizzie.
"Well, the lake isn't the whole thing." He answeredd.
"I knew it!"
"Well, look up into the sky."
Lizzie looked into the sky and saw that the starry sky was almost completely covered by clouds. Gordo also told her to look over at the covered area. She did, and there was a beach bag there, and two towels.
"Luckily the weather worked out exactly like I hoped it would." Said Gordo.
"What do you mean?" Asked Lizzie.
"Well, we can go swimming in the lake. That is, until it rains. And then-"
"And then we go under the cover area, and sit under the blanket like last time!"
"Yep! Now you see it."
"Oh, Gordo, that is so sweet! Uh, but what do we do about our bathing suits."
Gordo walked over to the beach bag. He pulled out Lizzie's swimsuit and his own swimsuit.
"Uh, Gordo. How did you get my bathing suit?"
"Well, I had Matt smuggle it out. Now, go change over in that bathroom over there."
He pointed to a small bathroom, located a little bit further down the park, away from the lake.
"All right! Be back in a minute!"
GORDO'S P.O.V.
Gordo watched as Lizzie ran to the bathroom. Her hair flowed in the wind, and Gordo changed into his swimsuit. He looked up at the sky,
"Everything is perfect."
He thought about how great it was to finally be with Lizzie. All the angst he went through, and it was finally upon him. Gordo looked at the calm waters. He pictured a few days ago, when they were in this exact area, having a splash war. Lizzie came running up, and Gordo blushed at the sight of her in her swimsuit.
They ran into the water, and had another splash war, this time, though, exchanging a kiss every once and a while. Then Lizzie felt a drop of water on her shoulder. Gordo did to, and the rain started to come down. They ran out, hand in hand, and went under the covered area. It began to rain hard and Gordo pulled out the blanket.
LIZZIE'S P.O.V.
Gordo was amazing. He was doing everything that happened the other day. They sat, shoulder to shoulder, hand in hand, the heat radiating from the two lovebirds. There hands were entwined underneath the blanket, and they watched as the rain came down around them. Lizzie laid his head on Gordo's shoulder, and felt her eyes get heavy. She let her eyes close, and felt so relaxed, and safe next to him. Lizzie opened her eyes, and saw him reach behind him and pick up a watch. He looked at it and then looked at Lizzie.
"You know everything about this is same right?"
"You mean tonight is the same as the other day?"
"Yep. Right down to-"
Gordo didn't get to finish, when a horn honked. No, Gordo couldn't have gotten everything the same, could he? That question was soon answered, when Lizzie's mom came through the rain holding an umbrella.
Lizzie got a big smile, and kissed Gordo. They picked up there things, and got into the van. The entire ride home, their hands were together. When they dropped Gordo off, they stood on his door stoop yet again.
"Gordo. Remember when we stood like this a few days ago? I really wanted to tell you that I liked you, but I just couldn't."
"Lizzie, I wanted to tell you to, but I wasn't able-"
Gordo didn't get a chance to finish, as Lizzie pressed her lips to his. The kiss seemed to last forever. She pulled away and looked shyly at Gordo.
"So, I guess this means we are boyfriend and girlfriend now huh?" Asked Lizzie.
"From what I can tell." Replied Gordo.
They said bye to each other, but it took them a little bit before they would let go of each other's hands. Gordo walked into his house, while Lizzie went into the van. The whole way home her mom was asking questions. Typical mom stuff. After getting through that hailstorm of a conversation, Lizzie ran up to her room. She opened up her drawer to change into her pajamas. She screamed at the site of a cockroach sitting in her drawer. Then from behind her she heard maniacal laughter. She turned around and saw Matt, laughing like crazy.
"HA-HA! I finally got you with that!" Said Matt.
He ran past Lizzie, grabbed the fake cockroach, and ran out of her room, before she had any chance to react. She shook it off, and grabbed her pajamas. She changed, and went to bed, so happy of the day's events.
The next day, Lizzie asked Gordo if he could come over. She sat by the door, but after about an hour, he never showed up.
"Where's Gordo? He wouldn't just not come, would he?"
Then Lizzie heard the phone ring. She picked it up, and it was Gordo's dad.
"Mr. Gordon?" Answered Lizzie.
"Lizzie. We are at the hospital. Something has happened to Gordo."
Tears immediately began to tear up.
"W-Well, what happened?" Asked Lizzie trembling.
Mr. Gordon paused for a few seconds, and then answered her.
