Secrets Between Us
Chapter 6
Unexpected Plans
Lizzie woke up in Gordo's arms. She loved the feeling. She turned her face to look at Gordo. He was already awake looking at her.
"Hey," he said softly. He leaned over and kissed her forehead.
"Hi. What happened last night?" she asked enjoying the kiss he planted on her.
"You passed out on the couch. I brought you up here," he said closing his eyes and pulling her tighter.
"Mmm," she moaned softly.
"Come on. Let's go down stairs. I will make you breakfast and we can call Miranda back to see if her and Danny want to do something with us today, ok?" he asked pulling the covers off of him and Lizzie.
"Okie doke! Let me put a sweatshirt on and I will be right down, k?" she smiled sweetly and turned her head to the side.
Gordo chuckled. "Ok, but don't take to long!" he said jogging down the stairs.
Lizzie pulled a sweatshirt out of one of the drawers in Gordo's dresser and pulled it over her head. She brushed her hair and pulled it up into a messy bun.
She pranced down the stairs finding Gordo flipping channels on the couch with a blanket wrapped around him and the phone in his left hand.
She went into the kitchen getting to oversized mugs out of the cupboard. She searched through cabinets for hot coco nix. Even though it wasn't cold, she loved hot coco. She poured the dry mix into each mug. She turned on the faucet waiting for it to get hot while looking over her shoulder to see Gordo watching cartoons. She filled the glasses up with water and put them in the microwave.
She stood at the bar looking at Gordo. She loved to see him happy. She hadn't seen a lot of that lately but she was determined to make him. The beeping sound of the microwave interrupted her thoughts. She got the mugs and went into the living room.
She set the mugs down on the coffee table and wrapped herself in the blanket.
I made you hot coco," she said leaning her head on his shoulder.
"Mmm, thanks. We are going to the movies today at 1:00 so be ready. Do you want me to swing by your house to get some new clothes and a shower?" he said picking up the mug and sipping the steamy drink.
"Sure, how about at 11:30? What time is it now?" she asked warming her hands on the mug.
"It's 10:00."
"Ok, wake me up at 11:15! Hey, when are your parents coming home?" she asked looking up at his face which was intently watching the T.V.
"Hmm? Oh, in a week," he said still engaged with the T.V.
"Ok," she said drifting off to sleeping with the warm mug still in her hands.
An hour passed and Gordo and Lizzie were both sleeping.
The doorbell rang a few times before Lizzie stirred. She threw the blanket off and jumped off the couch. She glanced at the clock before opening the door.
2:00.
She had a feeling it was Miranda and Danny waiting for them. She opened the door to see a not so happy Miranda. Danny was just standing there so free. That is what she loved about Danny. He was never mad about anything. Always lighthearted and free.
"Miranda there is an-
"No! Lizzie, if you didn't want to go you could have just called instead of pretending so be asleep. We called at least five times! Five times!" she yelled waking up Gordo who was now walking towards the door.
He intertwined his hand with hers. "What's going on guys?" he asked calmly running his free hand through his hair.
"Nothing, nothing at all. Miranda was just leaving. We are going to catch a movie later tonight at 7:00. See ya at the theater! Bye Danny, Miranda!" she said closing the door. She tugged at Gordo's hand and pulled him in the kitchen.
"I have a feeling that Miranda didn't make those plans, or even have a part of them. What was going on?" Gordo asked pulling the fridge open and getting two sodas. He set them on the bar.
"She was just mad that we slept. No biggie. She prolly won't even show up tonight so we can do our own thing," she said popping the top off her soda.
"Yeah, but it might be safe to just show up. Even if she does come we can have a good time," he said setting his soda down and walking to the freezer to get some ice in a cup. "Want one?" he asked pointing to the cup with ice.
"Nah, a can if fine with me. Ya hungry?" she asked sipping her can of Sprite.
"Ya, actually I am. Wanna go get something to eat?" he asked filling his cup with Coke.
"Wanna just order a pizza or something? I don't really feel like changing."
"Yeah same here."
"Ok, you call and have them deliver it while I go take a shower," she said while getting off the bar stool and setting her can by the sink.
"Hey, don't I deserve something Ms. McGuire?" he asked with a sly grin on his face.
"Well Mr. Gordon, I don't know. I mean all you did was sleep today," she said inching closer to him with a smile on her face.
"Well, if that's how it is gonna be then fine. You don't know what your missing!" he said taking baby steps towards her.
"I guess you could just ....Come and get me!" she said running for the living room.
"Oh McGuire," he said sighing. He started running for the living room when the doorbell rang. "Be right back!" he said running for the door.
He opened the door to see Danny standing there. "Hey Danny, what's up?"
"Not much, but uh is Lizzie here?" he asked looking over Gordo's shoulder.
"Right here!" she said sliding in on her socks.
"Hey!" Gordo said while kissing her on the forehead. She wrapped her arms around his neck.
"What did you need? Lizzie is here at your service!" she said smiling looking at Gordo.
"Oh, well maybe could we talk on the front porch?" he asked.
"Oh yeah of course. Gordo, go order the pizza. Cheese please!" she said opening the front door then walking out closing the door behind her. "What's up? How is it going with Miranda?" she said raising her eyebrows.
"Well," he said raising his eyebrows and walking towards Lizzie. He put his hands around her waist "I just was wondering if you wanted to do something tonight. You know instead of going to the movie," he said smiling and kissing her neck.
"No, Danny don't," she said pushing with his chest off of her with her hands.
"Oh, come on Lizzie! Baby?" he said quizzically.
"Don't!" she said pushing away and finally getting free.
He caught her arm. "Lizzie-
"No! Danny DON'T!" she said struggling.
"Yo, Danny what are you doing with Lizzie?" the pizza guy asked. Lizzie looked closer and saw it was Larry.
"Oh, hey Larry. How much?" she said looking for money in her pockets. A tear streamed down her face.
Larry looked curiously. "Uh, eleven fifty. You sure you're ok?"
"Yeah, yeah I am fine. Umm, here fifteen dollars. Keep the change," she said taking the hot pizza in her arms and opening the front door.
She went into the kitchen to find a note that read:
Hey Babe,
I am taking a shower. Have a piece of pizza and flip some channels.
I will be out soon!
I Love You,
Mr. Gordon. =)
"Oh, great. Now I have to keep another secret from him," she said taking out a plate and putting a slice of pizza on it. She walked to the couch and waited for Gordo.
