Chapter 7


Lizzie sat on her back deck looking at the stars, thinking about everything that had happened over the past two weeks. Gordo had been there the whole time, well except today. Lizzie didn't really blame him for it though, after how she had treated him earlier. Tonight though she felt so alone, her parents were right inside the house, and so was her brother, but Gordo wasn't there. Lizzie heard the deck door open and looked over her shoulder to see Frankie. 'Frankie's a great friend and all, but I still miss Gordo, oh well he's got Parker. As long as he's happy, I'm happy,' she kept telling herself.


"Hey," Frankie said, "what's wrong?"


"Huh? Oh nothing," Lizzie replied realizing that she was crying.


"Really, what's wrong?" he asked again.


"It's just that sometimes, you don't realize what you have until it's gone" she said softly.


"Lizzie, I can't go to the dance with you Friday," Frankie said.


"Why not?" she asked, with panic in her voice.


"Because I see that when you're with Gordo you're happy, and now that you guys aren't talking, you don't even seem like the same person. Come on, let's go," he said.


"Where are we going?" she asked.


"To get Gordo back, that's the only way you'll ever really be happy," he said as he began pushing her into the house.


"Are you sure," she asked, and he nodded. "Frankie?"


"What?"


"Thanks."


At Gordo's house........


"Why did I have to be so stupid?" Gordo asked himself. "She said she was sorry and I ignored her and now she is going to the dance with Frankie. I really ruined it this time." Just as he was about to go to bed, even though it was only 7:30, he saw car lights out the window.


In Gordo's Driveway......


"Thanks Frankie, for everything," Lizzie said as Frankie pushed her up to Gordo's door.


"You're welcome," he said as his cell phone rang, "Hello? Yea, okay I'll be right there."


"That was my manager, I have to get back to my hotel, will you be okay?" he asked her as he hung up the phone.


"Yea, I'll have Gordo take me home," she said.


"See ya later Lizzie," he said as he got in his car.


"Bye Frankie," she said.


Just as Frankie was pulling out of the driveway Lizzie rang Gordo's doorbell. "Hurry Gordo, come on, open the door," she said, it was kinda scarey knowing that you could only use one arm and that you couldn't walk if anyone would come around the corner of Gordo's house and try to attack you. Finally the door opened.


"Lizzie, what are you doing here?" Gordo asked.


"Can we talk?" she asked.


"Sure, here let me help you," he said, pushing her inside his house.


"Look, Gordo I am so sorry for about what I said this morning, and Frankie made me realize something, I'm not happy except when I'm with you. Will you please forgive me? And if you just want us to be friends that's fine, but just please don't hate me because I ......"


"Lizzie, I could never hate you," he said, "Wait a second, you still have the necklace on I gave you," he said with a look of confusion on his face.


"You can have it back if you want," she said.


"No keep, I want you to have it," he replied.


"Gordo, can we start over," she asked.


"I thought you'd never ask," he said smiling at her.



*Well what did you think? It's not the end of the story though there is still another twist or two to come. Please R&R!
