Story:
Riley and Lizzie entered the kitchen and Mrs. McGuire spoke up. "Gordo? I didn't expect to see you here."
Riley leaned over to Lizzie and whispered, "You haven't told her?"
Lizzie laughed. "Nope." She paused to watch her mother's confused face and continued. "Mom, this isn't Gordo."
"Well it sure looks a lot like Gordo." Mrs. McGuire said, examining the young man.
"Mom, this is Riley, my friend from camp. The one who's spending the night." Lizzie summed.
"Well I'm telling you Lizzie, he does look a lot like Gordo." Mrs. McGuire laughed at what was supposed to be a joke.
"Mom, remember how Gordo was adopted?" Lizzie asked with a "duh" look on her face.
"Yes, I remember."
"Well Gordo had a twin, and it just so happens that I bumped into him, literally, at camp." Lizzie put a wide grin on her face, proud of what she had found.
"Let me guess," Mrs. McGuire started. "You brought Riley here to meet Gordo?"
"Well, not exactly," Riley decided to speak.
"Lizzie thought she'd tell me some stuff about him. I'm going to meet him later on." Riley explained.
"Oh, ok. Well you two have fun. Just call if you want any snacks or anything."
"All right! Thanks mom!" Lizzie yelled as she ran up the stairs with Riley tagging behind her.
They entered Lizzie's room and sat down on Lizzie's bed. Riley looked around and admired Lizzie's room.
"Nice crib." Riley said, his eyes wandering from Lizzie's room to Lizzie. "Thanks. Glad you like." Lizzie smiled. Somehow it was important to her that Riley liked her room.
"Ok, so tell me about our Gordo here." Riley said, readjusting his position on the bed.
"Well, what do you want to know?" Lizzie smiled and brushed a piece of hair out of her face.
"How did you two meet?" Riley asked.
"Oh, god. I barely even remember. Let's see, we were both three years old and I had just moved here, next to Gordo," Lizzie paused. "By the way, his house is right there. Lizzie pointed out her bedroom window which shown the side of Gordo's house."
"He isn't going to barge in on us is he?" Riley asked, worried.
"Not today, tomorrow I'm probably going to have you two meet."
"Slammin!"
'If I didn't know any better, I'd say Riley was Ethan's personality, not mind cause' Ethan doesn't have a mind, in Gordo's body. Cool!' Lizzie thought to herself.
Lizzie went on to explain how she and Gordo met, and other interesting stories between the two. Time flew by like that and before they knew it, it was 1:00PM.
"Hey do you want to head down to the Digital Bean? I'll tell Miranda to meet us there." Lizzie declared.
"Sure, but ummm, what's a Digital Bean?" Riley looked confused.
'He looks so cute when he's confused.' Lizzie thought. 'Wait, no! Stop Lizzie! You have Gordo! You love Gordo! It must be because they look exactly alike.'
Lizzie spoke up. "The Digital Bean is the number 1 hangout spot in Hillridge."
"Sweet!" Riley shouted.
"Yeah, let me just call Miranda." Lizzie walked to her phone and Riley spoke up.
"All right, I'm gonna head to the bathroom and just, you know, freshen up." Lizzie looked confused.
'But he looks perfect already' She thought.
"Ok, take your time." Riley grabbed a fresh pair of clothes from his bag and a bottle of gel and walked out of her room towards the bathroom.
Lizzie picked up her phone and dialed *+1 for Miranda on speed dial.
"Hello?" Miranda asked when she picked up.
"Miranda! It's Lizzie!" She greeted.
"Hey! Is Riley there?" Miranda asked anxiously.
"Si chica. Riley es en mi casa." Lizzie spoke Spanish; she knew Miranda would understand what she said. Miranda is after all Mexican!
[A.note: Ok, the Spanish phrase above means, "Yeah girl. Riley is at my house."]
"Ah, yo comprendo," Miranda laughed. "Ok enough Spanish, so can I come over and meet him?"
"Yeah, I called to ask if you wanted to go to the Digital Bean with us." Lizzie announced.
"Sure! I'll be at your house in five minutes?" Miranda checked with Lizzie.
"Yeah, sure! See you then!"
"Bye."
"Bye Bye!"

Just then Riley walked back into Lizzie's room. Before she could put the phone back onto the receiver, she dropped it and fell to her knees.
"Whoa," He rushed over to her to make sure she was Okay. "You ok?" He laughed a little.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Must be," She paused to look at him. "Weak knees."
Riley helped her to her feet and they both sat on the bed and waited for Miranda.
They sat in silence until Miranda walked in. When she did, she stopped dead in her tracks.
"Gordo?" She called.
"Miranda, maybe I didn't tell you but Gordo has a twin." Lizzie clued her in, even though Miranda already knew this information.
"Oooohhh. Sorry Riley. I kinda," Miranda gulped when she looked at him. "Forgot."
Riley got up. "It's all right. Miranda? Right?"
Miranda got that weird smile on her face when you know she likes a guy or thinks they're cute. She bobbed her head up and down and said, "Uh huh."
"Well," Lizzie said, cutting the two of them off. "I think we should go now. The Digital Bean usually gets crowded around this time and we want a good table. Right?"
"Right!"
The trio walked out of Lizzie's room, and out of the house down the street to the Digital Bean.
Lizzie didn't feel so good about this though. She felt like she was replacing Gordo.
WooHoo! Long enough for you guys? I've been working on this chapter for a few hours, with breaks. Enjoy! R&R! -Andi
