~Chapter 6~
Gordo, why are you being this was? You're being rude and bitter to the person closest to you. Lizzie has done nothing wrong, nothing to deserve this. Well, actually, wait. Yes, she has done something wrong. Quite a few somethings wrong. (Nothing to deserve my cold behavior, but still.)
Promising we'd have adventures, and breaking that promise – was wrong.
Sneaking off to meet Paolo – was wrong.
Promising Paolo she would help him and Isabella – was wrong.
Going to the International Music Video Awards – was wrong.
Admittedly, though, she had looked spectacular on stage.
A faint smile came to his lips. He glanced quickly over at Lizzie. A frown was on her face. And he knew he had put it there. She looked up and her eyes grew a little wider, seeing him look at her. They held their gaze for a moment. Lizzie's lips parted, about to say something.
No. Don't. He looked down and turned up the volume. He saw Lizzie look down, too, biting her lip, absolute hurt on her face, a shining tear in her eye.
She squeezed her eyes shut and Gordo could read her mind: Gordo, why are you acting this way? Do you hate me?
No, he answered her silently. Not hate. Love, so strong that it hurts.
A Note: Okay, short chapter, I know. But most of the rest of the chapters are going to be irregularly lengthed. Also, I know the writing style is a little weird, but if you notice it's going from partial thought to mostly thought. They're sinking more and more into their own heads, lost in thought. Just thought I'd point it out. And if you think this is really bad now, please keep reading. It gets better. At least, I think it does. That counts for something…right? hahaha
