"I'm back!"
"You're back!"
"I'm back!"
"You're back!"
"I'm back!"
"You're baaack!!"
And a series of high-pitched squeals only a dog could hear was the first
thing David Gordon,
(known as Gordo) heard that night on the phone with his girlfriend and best
friend. Although that was the only thing that was said since the phone
conversation had started, Gordo already understood what the girls were
talking about and what the high-pitched squealing had meant. Miranda, his
and Lizzie's best friend, was back from her summer-long trip to Mexico and
her and Lizzie we extremely happy at the prospect of hanging out again and
started High School together.
"Ohmigosh, Miranda I am soo glad you're back!" Lizzie said in her girlie
voice. "What?" asked Gordo. "You didn't enjoy my company?" He said
kiddingly. "Nah, Gordo, you were great, absolutely perfect....
"Ooh, la la" Miranda interrupted. "Am I sensing some flirtation here?" She
joked. Gordo and Lizzie had both bitten their lower lip and tensed up a
bit. Should they tell Miranda, or leave her, as Lizzie's mother would say,
"blissfully clueless"? "Hello?" Miranda asked with a sense of worry in her
voice. "Are you guys still there?"
"Yeah, totally- -"
"We're completely still here."
"Oooookaaaaay...." Miranda said, confused. Silence, dead silence. Gordo and
Lizzie still didn't know whether they should inform Miranda or not. How
would she react? What would she say??
"Did somethin' happen while I was in Mexico?" Miranda asked straight out.
Before he even knew what he was doing..."Yes, yes something did happen. Me
and Lizzie went to Rome where she was mistaken as an Italian pop star and
went gaga over this other famous Italian pop star. But when she found out
he was a jerk she came crawling back to me and we-we
kissed." Gordo took a deep breath. "And now we go out." Miranda stifled a
yawn. "Is that all?" Lizzie gasped. " 'Is that all?' 'Is that all?'
Miranda, you this is a big deal! Me and Gordo have liked each other since,
like, forever!"
"Which is why it isn't surprising." Miranda replied. I knew you guys would
hook up one day. It was just a matter of time."
