All right everyone, I don't normally do this but today I am doing "Thank
You's" to the reviewers, just because I've been getting do many awesome
reviews for this story! And all my others!
Thnk You's- ((Well, most of them are thank you's anyway))
Baby_Bunnie ((I gotta give you the first one!)) - Girl you are the BEST! I gotta tell ya, your probably the person who most often reads my stories! Thank you so much for all your reviews! You are really nice and cool, talk to ya later!
Lizzie Lover- Girl I don't know who you think you are comin' off like that. Like one of my reviewers said earlier, it's FICTION. It doesn't have to be real! And if you read in earlier chapters, my spell/grammar check is broken and I'm dyslexic so I have a hard time checking for spelling and grammar myself so chill back and concentrate on the story more or less the mistakes.
Purplerks- Im so glad you like my story! I know I could be more accurate with this but I wouldn't know what to do with all the extra chapters until they would actually find out that she has AIDS! So I kinda took a shortcut, hehe. Thanks for the review!
Starry Dreamer- Ok, Im not a perfect writer! But if you want to believe that then go right ahead! Hehe, I try to be as good as I can though. But I'm glad you think I'm really good!
Ok, onto the story!
Disclaimer: I own Riley, come to think of it, I don't want to own him anymore! Any one wanna buy him?
Story:
After staring at the sky for about ten minutes, Lizzie, Miranda, and Gordo get up and went to Miranda's car.
"Lizzie," Gordo called softly while Miranda was getting in the driver's seat on the other side of the car. "Are you ok?"
Lizzie responded almost instantly. "Yeah, yeah I'm fine. Never been better."
Gordo found that hard to believe. But decided not to press more into the matter since it might upset Lizzie.
All the way back to Miranda's house, no onw made a sound. Miranda thought that bringing up the matter of Lizzie having AIDS would upset her, and figured there was nothing else to talk about, and Gordo just sat there absorbing all the information of that day.
Gordo was awoken from his daze when Lizzie waved her hand in front of his face.
"Gordo? Are you awake?" Lizzie asked.
"Oh!" Gordo jumped, waking from his daze. "Sorry."
Gordo got out of the car and the three walked inside, and into Miranda's livingroom. After getting settled Miranda decided to bring up the subject.
"Lizzie," Miranda started, almost afraid to ask her question. "Are you gonna, ummm, are you gonna tell your, your parents?"
Lizzie eyes went wide. She hadn't thought about that yet.
"No, at least not today anyways." Lizzie looked down at her feet.
"Baby, you have to tell them. I mean, they're your parents. They need to know." Gordo chimed in, but Lizzie still didn't agree.
"Gordo, do you know what it will do to them if they find out that I'm going to die soon?" Those words made Gordo cringe, and they didn't make Lizzie feel like a day at the park either.
Miranda decided to speak up. "Don't talk like that Lizzie! You're not going to, to, you're not going to die."
"Miranda," Lizzie got up from her spot near Gordo and sat down by Miranda and gave her a hug. "We all die. Everyone. It just so happens that my time will be a little sooner than everyone elses."
A tear fell down Miranda's cheek when Lizzie spoke those words. Lizzie looked over to where she previously sat and saw that Gordo had left.
Miranda pushed on Lizzie's back to get her up. "Go get him." She commanded.
"Ok."
Lizzie ran out the door and saw Gordo walking halfway down the street.
"Gordo!" She called out to him, but he did not respond. He turned a corner into a driveway and headed into the back yard.
Lizzie followed him into the backyard and sat down next to him on a swinging bench.
"Gordo why'd you leave?" Lizzie asked.
"Lizzie, you were talking about you dying, and soon. Sooner than everyone else, sooner than me," A tear formed in Gordo's eye and rolled down his cheek. Lizzie wiped it away as he began to speak again. "Lizzie, I just can't stand the thought of losing you. It would kill me if I lost you."
"Gordo, you're not going to lose me. Not for a long time. I mean, some AIDS victims live 10 or 15 years after being diagnosed." Lizzie informed him.
"Lizzie?" Gordo called.
"Yeah?" She responded.
"This doesn't seem to bother you much."
"Well," Lizzie paused for a second. "Because it doesn't. I'm not afraid of dying."
There was a long "lul" between the two for a few minutes until Lizzie decided to speak up.
"Gordo, I think we should go back to Miranda's." Lizzie suggested.
"Yeah, good idea."
Hand-in-Hand, the two walked back to Miranda's house to find her sitting on her couch just staring out into space.
"Miranda? Are you awake?" Gordo asked as he and Lizzie walked into the living room. Miranda jerked her head back startled.
"Oh, sorry." She said.
"Guys, I've made a decision." Lizzie announced.
"What? What is it?" Gordo asked, anxious to hear the news.
"I'm going to tell my parents, today. But I want you guys to be with me."
"Yeah, of course." Miranda jumped off of the couch and the three walked to Lizzie's house.
"Lizzie, are you sure this is what you want?" Gordo asked.
"Gordo I wouldn't be doing this if I didn't want to. Besides, I'm going to have to tell them sooner or later."
Just as Lizzie spoke those words, they reached the front porch to the McGuire house.
"All right, here goes nothing," Lizzie, Miranda, and Gordo walked up the stairs and into the house. "Mom, Dad, I'm home!" Lizzie called. Mrs. McGuire ran up to her.
"Lizzie! I feel like I haven't seen you in days!" Mrs. McGuire shreiked.
"You havent," Lizzie informed her. "I've been at Miranda's for the past three nights."
"Oh."
"Mom, there's something I need to tell you. I think you should sit down," Lizzie led her mom and her friends into the livingroom where they all were seated except for Lizzie and Gordo. "Where's dad?"
"Let me go get him," Jo got up off the couch and headed towards the stairs. "Should I get Matt too?" Lizzie shook her head yes.
"Lizzie, I can't believe you're going to tell them." Miranda said getting off the couch.
"I have to. They need to know." Just then, Jo, Sam, and Matt came down the stairs and sat down in the livingroom.
"Mom, Dad, Matt," Lizzie started. "What I'm about to tell you, well, it's bad. Really bad."
"Well tell us sweetheart," Lizzie's Dad said. "I'm sure whatever it is we can work it out."
"Yeah, I mean it can't be any worse than that time that girl followed you around day in and day out and acted just like you just because you were her "role model"," Matt teased. Lizzie gave him a glare. "Sorry." He muttered.
"Ok, well, Mom, Dad, Matt, I was, I was," Lizzie hesitated and turned around to face Gordo.
"Tell them." He whispered, then turned her back around.
"Ok, I was, I was, raped." She finally said and everyone just sat there mortified.
"Lizzie, oh my god my baby!" Mrs. McGuire jumped up and pulled Lizzie into a huge hug, tears filling her eyes. Lizzie pushed her away.
"Mom, that's not all of it." Jo sat back down as Lizzie continued her announcement. "I went to see a doctor. He said that I have, that I have AIDS."
