Chapter 3: Fun Time America

Where we left off:

Lizzie was begging to do my hair and make-up, so I had to give in. I had to admit. We looked hot!

Continued onto chapter 3:

Miranda's POV

"Are you nervous?" I asked.

"Honestly? Yeah. I haven't seen him in awhile, and I'm just afraid. I don't know why. I just am. I've never done anything thing like this before. Well, I mean I HAVE, but just not in a public place before," Lizzie explained.

"I just don't understand why you have to do this here and now. I mean you're only 13! I don't control your life, but I was taught not to do that kind of stuff until I'm older. We're young. We have our WHOLE lives to do that stuff. We should just enjoy being young and carefree. We shouldn't being acting older than we are." I lectured.

"Let's just finish getting ready. I don't really wanna talk about this shit. I don't really care anymore. It doesn't matter." Lizzie said.

"Ok, whatever." I said.

My mom finally came and picked us up 15 minutes later. We picked up Gordo next.

"Be careful, kids and have fun!" my mom said.

"Ok, Mom thanks a lot!" I replied.

"I'm starving, guys. Let's get something to eat at the pizza place in Fun Time America." Gordo said.

"No surprise there, Gordo. You're ALWAYS hungry." Lizzie said.

"Liz, I'm a growing boy who needs to eat. I can't help it if I'm always hungry." Gordo said defensively.

"Whatever, Gordo." Lizzie and I said at the same exact time.

Lizzie ordered a cheeseburger and a Coke, Gordo had French fries, and I wasn't that hungry so I just had a cherry smoothie. The food was horrible. Lizzie's burger was cold, my smoothie tasted nasty, and Gordo's fries were undercooked.

"Ugh, I don't feel so good." Lizzie said.

"It's probably just nerves but let's go to the bathroom just in case." I suggested.

Lizzie didn't really throw up. It was just a spit's worth. Nothing much, thank God. I can tell she's really nervous. You can the fear and anticipation in her eyes. We waited a couple minutes before we saw Dave. He didn't walk toward us. He walked past us. I guess he was trying to act cool. We walked away towards the couches in the center of Fun Time America. It was by the bumper cars and the pizza place. Eventually, Dave came over to us. Lizzie was talking to out friends, Heather, on the phone because she was supposed to come but couldn't make it. Gordo and I walked away, so Dave and Lizzie could be alone.

We walked over to the slot machines because we had a good view to spy on them from there. It looked like they were talking. Then Dave put his head on her shoulder, and Lizzie ran her fingers through his hair. It was a cute sight. The only thing that was kinda strange was that Dave was ghetto. He was definitely a gangsta. It looked so funny because Lizzie dressed preppy, while Dave dressed ghetto. You don't see that often. Gordo and I started laughing.

We walked past them a couple times to get a better view. We pretended to be doing something else so we could watch them. Gordo and I went to exchange our money for tokens, so we could play a car racing game. It was fun, but I lost. I wasn't surprised. Gordo's like the master of all arcade games. Dave walked away for a couple minutes, so we went over to Lizzie.

"Hey, Liz!" Gordo and I said.

"Hey!" She said back.

"What are you wearing?" I asked.

She was wearing a gray fleece hooded jacket that was way too big for her.

"It's Dave's. Look at me!" Lizzie said.

She opened up her jacket, and she had a big rash on her chest because of her nerves. Now I realize why she was wearing it.

"Wow." I said.

"Geez." Gordo said.

"I'm also wearing this so I can put the hood over my head, so no one will notice I'm a girl when I go in the bathroom." Lizzie explained.

Dave was coming back, so we had to leave. We decided to play air hockey since it was really close to where they were. Then I noticed Dave got up again and walked by the boys' bathroom. The about a minute later Lizzie walked up and went into the bathroom with him. Gordo and I played three rounds of air hockey.and won each time.

"You're too good to play with me. Can't you give me a break though? You know I'm bad at these games." I complained

"It's not my fault you were neglected as a kid who wasn't allowed to play video games or arcade games! Just kidding. I'll give you a break next round." Gordo promised.

Just then I saw Lizzie walking really fast towards the door. I told Gordo, and then we walked out the door on the other side of the building so it wouldn't seem suspicious. We couldn't find her so we assumed she went back inside. We saw Dave get Lizzie's coat and walk out the door. We walked towards the door, but didn't see either of them. Just them Robert, Dave's friend, came up to us.

"Your friend is waiting outside for you by the end of the street." He informed us.

"Thanks, man." Gordo said appreciatively.
