Chapter 2
She walked inside and saw Matt sitting on the couch watching cartoons and snacking on
potato chips.
" Hey lazy, you going to clean up your mess after you are done," said
Lizzie
" I don't know, I kind of have a headache after falling to the ground in
laughter after seeing a hot kissage going on outside the front yard." said
Matt as he smiled at her. Lizzie grew really angry and charged after him.
" You were spying on me," Lizzie shouted at him as she started to hit him with
couch pillows.
" Mom! Lizzie is going crazy, help me," Matt shouted out to her. Lizzie's mother walks into the living room as she glanced over at Lizzie with an anger look on her face.
" Lizzie what is the deal with hitting your brother with my new pillows I brought for the couch," said Lizzie's mother as she crossed her arms around her stomach.
" I um...I.." Lizzie couldn't find the words to tell her because she didn't
what her to know about her kissing a boy.
" She is mad because I took her diary and I was reading it and she
caught me," said Matt as he looked over at Lizzie as she was staring back at
him confused but happy.
" Oh well, Matt, that is a girl's private property, you know better than that," said Lizzie's mother
" I know I am sorry Lizzie," said Matt
" Well I guess I should ground you than," said Lizzie's mom
" What, no," Matt shouted out
" Matt, I am sorry but you need to learn how to keep out of your sister's private stuff," said Lizzie's mom
" But Mom really I am over it now, please you don't have to ground
Matt," said Lizzie as she tried to stick up from him but only got flushed.
" No I am sorry Lizzie but he is grounded and that is final. Now I am
busy with work so please don't bother Mommy for another hour," said Lizzie's
mother as she walked back into the kitchen.
" I can't believe this,"said Matt
" I am sorry Matt I tried to help you,"said Lizzie
" Whatever I am never helping you again,"said Matt as he charged into
his room. Lizzie looked down and felt bad for him. She wasn't being herself
lately and now Matt was mad at her when he was trying to help her out. She
had to call Gordo soon before she breaks down into tears. She dialed the
phone and waited for someone to pick up. Finally his mother picked up on the fourth ring.
" Hey Liz, David is in the shower," Gordo's mother said in her most
polite voice.
" Can you tell him I called,"said Lizzie
" Of course Lizzy I will,"said David's mother
" Thank you Mrs. Gordon," said Lizzie
" No problem dear, tell you mother I said hi for me will you,"said
Mrs. Gordon
" Of course. since you are doing the same for me,"said Lizzie
" Thanks dear,"said Mrs. Gordon
" Welcome. Bye Mrs. Gordon,"said Lizzie
" Ok...bye dear," said Mrs. Gordon as she hang up and looked over at her
son in awe " Ok can you tell me now, why i just lied to poor Lizzie for"
" I don't want to talk about it mom,"said Gordo
" No you are going to talk about it because I don't lie to people and
deserve to know why I lied to her for," said Mrs. Gordon
" Fine, we got in a fight," said Gordo
" So and..,"said Mrs. Gordon
" So we got in a fight, usually when you get in a fight you don't talk
to each other," said Gordo
" Who said you couldn't talk to her," said Mrs. Gordon
" I did, it is the rule," said Gordo
" Well if you made up this rule Gordo, I would have to say it is
selfish," said Mrs. Gordon
" I knew you wouldn't understand," said Gordo
" I do understand and I am sorry to say son but think you are being dumb, Lizzie called up to probably make up with you and you just pushed it away. Do you really want to do that or do you really want to loss a best friend over some stupid rule," said Mrs. Gordon as she ran her fingers through his brown hair and smiled down at him.
" Maybe I should call her," said Gordo
" I think that would be wise," said Mrs. Gordon
" Thanks mom," said Gordo as he hugged her tight and ran upstairs to his
room.
