Chapter Three
Living in the Past
Lizzie looked as if she was about to freak out. Not only was she stuck with someone she damn near hated, but she also had no electricity and no phone to help her, and the library was almost completely dark, aside from whatever light was still left outside. Soon, if the power did not turn on quick, they would have to spend the night together.
Lizzie continued to pace. "Ugh! This totally sucks. I will have you know, Gordo, that this night is completely ruined thanks to you."
"Okay, THIS is not my fault. This happens to be no one's fault, Lizzie. You and I just happen to be at the wrong place at the wrong time, and you would have been in here alone and would have probably freaked out because of the lack of lights. Second of all, my name is not Gordo! You gave me that stupid name when we were young, and I have since moved on to David. Gordo is a name in the past," Gordo said furiously.
"Well, Gordo, I frankly don't give a whoop what you want to be called, and since you are so rude about the whole thing, I am gonna call you whatever I want to, and just to spite you, I choose to call you Gordo."
"Fine, then I choose to call you Flubberbelly," David retorted.
This really set Lizzie off. Lizzie walked up to him and cornered him and grabbed him by the collar and dragged him to a nearby bookshelf. "Ohh, Lizzie has me cornered. I am so scared! NOT!" David said mockingly as he flailed his arms.
"Fine, if that is the way you want to play the game, go ahead and call me Flubberbelly. I don't actually care what you choose to call me," Lizzie said, as she still had Gordo cornered.
"Good. Now, will you please let go of me?" David said as he tried and falied to release himself from her grasp.
"Why?"
"Because this is not very comfortable."
"Fine," Lizzie said and she let him go, but she followed him, "But I know you enjoyed it, in fact, you probably were turned on."
David looked at his ex-best friend and squinted his eyes as if to say he was confused. "What?"
"Oh, get off it, Gordo, I know that you had a crush on me in middle school, and you probably still have a crush on me. In fact, this whole library situation probably trills you because we get to spend time with each other, right, Gordo?"
By this time, they had reached the end of the library on the first floor and were at the kids corner, which was surrounded by pillows and bean bag chairs. "Well, Lizzie, you can get off that high and mighty horse and yours and stop living in the past, because I have defintitely moved on to bigger and better things since then."
"Yeah right, sure keep on telling your self that you loathe me now and that you have not thought about me at all during the past three years. Sure, I will buy it. Can you?" Lizzie retorted.
"I bought it years ago, Lizzie, and--" David was interrupted by Lizzie's laughter. "What are you laughting about?"
Lizzie laughed even louder, but tried to calm her self. "Nothing, its just, you -you can't not call me Lizzie. Its just out of habit," Lizzie said as he laughed again, even harder, and she let herself drop to a nearby bean bag.
David's expression on his face turned from anger to defeat, and eventually to thoughtful as he joined Lizzie by sitting on a bean bag across from her. Lizzie looked up from her laughter and at David, who was scratching his head. "What?" Lizzie said as she stopped laughing completely.
"Do you realize what we are doing?"
"Yeah, Gordo, we are having an arguement about the past," she said and then she realized what she said.
"Yeah, about the past. We are looking for things to argue about when we could be doing much better things."
"Like what?" Lizzie said, but David glared at her. "What? I was only kidding," she said and she let herself giggle.
"Good. But the point is, this night would go by a lot quicker if we didn't waste it on arguing,"David pointed out.
"I guess so," Lizzie said as she pretended to consider this, "Besides it isn't our fault that we aren't friends anymore. We can thank Miranda for this."
