Lizzie fought back tears as she nodded and hurried off into the change rooms. The girls were still laughing outside, and for one moment, she thought that she heard Miss Lipperie say, "OK girls, now for the real pyramid cheer."

When Lizzie got home, she lay on her bed and cried for what seemed like forever. She was so miserable now that she couldn't bear to show her face again in school. Fiona had taught her a whole bunch of made up cheers, and Kayla hated Lizzie for listening to Fiona. Miranda and Gordo were probably hanging out with Jenny at the Digital Bean.

Lizzie didn't have any friends in the whole world. She was now an official loner.

Dear Diary,

Lizzie didn't show up for school again. It's the third time now. I'm getting worried about her. Maybe I was a bit hard on her. I think I'll call her and say sorry.

Lizzie was weeping on her bed (as usual over the past few days). She was really starting to cry hard when her mom, Jo called up the stairs:

"Hey honey, PHONE!!!"

"OK mom I've got it.hello?"

"Hey Lizzie, it's Kayla."

"Oh, you. Well, I'm really sorry that I talked to Fiona and you probably won't forgive me, but I'm going to ask you anyway. Will you forgive me?" Lizzie pleaded.

"Sure," Kayla replied. "I can't stay mad at you forever, now can I?"

Lizzie giggled for the first time in days. "I guess not."

"Friends?"

"Definitely."

Both girls laughed and talked for a couple hours.
