"What do you mean Lizzie?" he asked coolly. He had stopped dancing now realizing what I had said.
"The kiss, it was nice. I liked it-a lot! What if I didn't want it to be an accident?" I asked timidly looking at the floor. We were both oblivious to the people around us-it was just the both of us standing there, being bumped but it went unnoticed.
"You were drunk-you probably don't remember it-it's just being mixed with a memory of your boyfriend," he said throwing away the possibility that I had enjoyed the kiss. Wanting to prove him wrong I reached forward and kissed him passionately. It was like a fire had been sent from my lips to his as we stood there in the crowd kissing deeply. Finally he pulled away. "So maybe you did remember," he added smiling.
"Yeah, that's not something you forget!" I joked with him. His arms were around my waist and he had pulled me close. We started kissing again and for quite some time until we were rudely interrupted by a forceful push. I spun around to reveal a surprising sight.
"Uh, uh, hi-what are you doing here?" I asked casually pulling away from Logan.
"I came to see you! Gordo arranged for me to meet you here as a surprise! Merry fucking Christmas Lizzie!" Corey yelled storming past me.
"Corey wait!" I yelled pulling back at his coat.
"What do you want?" he was angry and his eyes showed the hurt he felt.
"I-this isn't what it seems like!" I pleaded as Logan stepped beside me.
"Uh yeah-we just got pushed together- freak accident I tell you!" he joked putting his hand out. Corey stared at it then laughed.
"What?" I asked worriedly.
"You think I'm some kind of idiot don't you? I saw you kissing him Lizzie-and not even the same way you kiss me! It was-different!" his face fully expressed the sorrow.
"I-I'm sorry! This wasn't supposed to happen!" I cried.
"Yeah-whatever! I'll see you later!" he stormed off in another direction.
"Liz, I'm sorry! This shouldn't have happened!" Logan comforted me as we stood in the middle of the room.
"No it's my fault-I just-When I kissed you, it felt good and-I just." I started to cry playing with my fingers as Logan wiped my tears away.
"It'll be alright Liz, it will be," he pulled me in for a hug and looked deep into my eyes. "Now, how about a dance?" he said cheerfully.
"Yeah, okay!" I said grabbing onto his hand as he spun me around.
We danced for a short time before I had to go back home. "I'll take you home Liz," he said cheerfully grabbing his jacket from another room.
"Thanks," I answered as he gave me mine.
"Let's go," he held out his hand-like it was some kind of adventure that I should just grab onto to go along for the ride. The safety net I had with Corey was gone-I was falling in an endless put of adventure and I had to keep going. I grabbed his hand and smiled lightly at him as we headed out the door.
It was a mistake to leave at that time-apparently Corey was having a blast. I saw him at the front of the house kissing some girl-some familiar girl. Oh NO!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Corey, what the hell do you think you're doing?" I screamed releasing Logan's hand and running over to where Corey stood. He grinned evilly at me.
"The same thing you were doing!" he went back to the girl who seemed out of it-high maybe.
"But that's Gordo's girlfriend, don't you get it?" I was drawing a crowd at this point-on the verge of tears feeling as if I were the one to betray Gordo. As I yelled this, Gordo had popped outside to see his girlfriend with Corey-in his arms. He looked at me then back at them.
"What's going on?" he was obviously upset.
"Uh...uh..." UI stuttered but was cut off by Andrea.
"Gordo-I-we, well I kissed Corey!" she began to cry and hid her face in her hands.
"You what?" his face had turned red.
"No man, this is my fault! Um, I think I'll be going now," Corey jumped in then began to walk away.
"Not so fast asshole! You mean to tell me that you kissed my girlfriend! Why?" Gordo had his hands at the ready-waiting for just the simple go ahead. It didn't matter what Corey answered with-he was obviously going to hurt him to the best of his ability.
"It's Lizzie's fault. I saw her kiss that guy," he said pointing to Logan who just looked at me and at our clenched hands, "and I wanted revenge!" he was pretty angry and Gordo's fists tensed a bit.
"This isn't Lizzie's fault Corey-you are the one who kissed my girlfriend. You didn't have to do that to my girlfriend!" and with that, he released his anger in a hard hit to Corey's left cheek. Stunned that such might had come from such a small man-Corey stumbled back and his jaw dropped.
"Gordo, are you okay?" I said running over to him pulling Logan with me.
"Yeah, I guess so!" he said with a heavy heart. I looked into his blue eyes and could tell he was hurt. Although his relationship with Andrea was short-it still hurt him a lot.
Corey sat by himself as now he had fallen down after tripping over the sprinkler. No one had come to help him but a got a few laughs as he fell. Andrea was sitting on the stairs crying and looking for some sort of sympathy.
"Gordo, I think you should forgive her-she was just drunk!" I said in her defense.
"I guess I should-but next time you decide to have a jealous boyfriend-make sure he stays away from my girlfriend. And you know what-you should stay away from me too!" he staled off towards Andrea who he had now wrapped his arms around. He wiped away her tears as I stood with Logan behind me.
"Liz, it'll be okay," he began and put his hand on my shoulder comfortingly. I shrugged it off and turned to face him.
"No! Nothing is okay! My boyfriend despises me and my best friend hates me for having a jealous boyfriend! I can't win!!!!! And now I've screwed things up with you and your girlfriend!" I cried screaming. Logan shifted his weight but his face stood blank.
"Lizzie, I kissed you back-in the house tonight, I kissed you back. I ended things with my girlfriend today-over the phone. I want you Lizzie, not her-I knew immediately that we had a connection! Just- give me a chance," he pleaded and waited for my reply. I looked deep into his eyes and knew he meant what he said.
"O-Kay... I just feel so terrible," I cried hugging him and putting my head on his shoulder. He tightened his arms around me and held me tightly as I cried to myself. After a bit he took my hand in his and led me to his car around the corner. He opened the door and sat me inside giving me a kiss on the cheek before shutting the door.
We drove to his house in silence and when we got there he turned off his engine. He turned slightly to me and smiled. "Do you want to come in?" he looked over me and I nodded slightly. I opened my door and came around the car and he pulled me by the hand into his house.
A/N: Oh no! Lizzie's gone into a boy's house! Will she sleep with Logan or will something else happen? Is Logan that kind of guy? Tell me what you think and the next chapter shall reveal!!
