GORDO'S POV

"Hey Gordo, see you tomorrow!" a voice called to me as I got on the bus.

"Ya, it'll be nice to get out of here for a while!" I called back. Tomorrow was the last day of our junior year before summer vacation. I'd be more than happy to get out of school for a while.

For once in my life, I David Gordon, hated school. Everything seemed different, and oh I dunno. I guess I just don't like all the changes that happened after.no can't think about that!

I still can't face what happened that day, and it was over three years ago! But my guess is, you never get over something like that. The last thing I heard was that Lizzie was the prime suspect for murdering her family and they gave up all leads on the case.

I still don't think Lizzie killed her family. I very strongly disagree with that! I mean, it's Lizzie!

I wonder where she is now.I wonder if she's all right. Sometimes I find myself wondering if she's.alive. NO! Don't think about that Gordon! Not again!

In the bus I found a window seat towards the back. The radio was on but Ihad no clue what station.

As our lives change, Come whatever

We will still be, best friends forever

Hah! That's a huge laugh. Nothing is forever. It all changes sometime. It changes just like that. The scary thing is, it can happen to anyone. But when it does...your not prepared.

That night as I lay down to sleep, I couldn't stop thinking about the Vitamin C song from the bus. 'Graduation'.

As our lives change, Come Whatever

We will still be, best friends forever

***************************Flashback************************************

We were at the park. Miranda and me. Miranda and I. Just the two of us. Alone. Without Lizzie. I mean, we've hung out without Lizzie before, but, this was really different. It was kind of awkward probably the fact that we knew; there in the back of our minds that Lizzie couldn't be there with us.

"Gordo." Miranda spoke suddenly.

I looked at her, with love. She and Lizzie had been my best friends for so long. I didn't want to lose Miranda too.

"Will-Promise..promise me.that we'll always be friends?" she asked her face clouded.

With a small smile I replied, "No matter what?"

She too had a small grin. "No matter what." She repeated

No matter what.

Those three words are always the words that I think of when I see people hanging out at the mall, or buying tickets to the movies. I know I should forget them but I can't. Not quite.

Miranda and I.well, I guess we both went our separate ways. I was aware that it might happen between us, me, Lizzie, and Miranda. But who could have guessed it could have happened the way it did?
