Hilary walked over to Gordo's locker, and slammed it shut.
"Hey, what was that for?!" he wanted to know.
Hilary's eyes were looking incredibly fiery, despite the fact they were green. He twirled his locker combo, 38-42-8, and opened his locker back up. He started pulling his books out, while still listening to Hilary.
"Don't tell me you don't have a thing with Lizzie McGuire!" she screeched. "I saw the way you two were hugging yesterday, and it looked a little more than friendly!"
"She was crying." Gordo replied, incredibly calmly. "She was crying onto my shoulder over breaking up with Clift. I'm her friend, and that's what friends do, if you didn't know."
He was getting really irritated with Hilary lately; all she ever did was bother him about Lizzie. He couldn't believe when they first started going out, she had actually convinced him to stop talking to Lizzie.
"Ah, so Robo-slut has feelings, eh?" As she said that, Gordo couldn't help but notice how the fiery look left her green eyes and been replace with an icy stare.
"What, I didn't realize we were talking about you and your feelings." he retorted.
"We weren't, we were talking about Liz-" and then she realized what he had just said, and what it meant. "You little-ergh! I should break up with you!"
"Yeah, you're right, you really should." He said; still as calm as he was when they first began their conversation began. "But you're taking too long, so here's what I'll do. I'll break up with you. Bye."
And with that, he slammed his locker door shut, and walked away, leaving Hilary there to stare after him.
***
"So, Gordo, what's up?" Lizzie said cheerfully. She was in a much better mood today at lunch than she was yesterday.
"We broke up." He said casually as he put his tray down next to her and sat down.
"Oh that's cool." Lizzie said, not realizing what he meant, and then it hit her. "Oh my gosh, Hilary dumped you? What IS this, an epidemic?! Everyone is breaking up!"
"Calm down Liz!" he said, laughing. " She didn't dump me, I dumped her, and if this is an epidemic, me and you seem to be the only ones who have it! Britt is still with Danny, and Miranda is going out with a guy who's in her Exploring Business class."
"Oh my GOSH!" Lizzie squealed. "HOW did you find out before I did? I didn't know Mirada had a boyfriend!"
"Well, she just told me, since we were standing together in the lunch line, and they just started going out last period."
As if on cue, Miranda came over to the table with a tall guy with short brown hair right beside her. He was cute, and had a nice smile.
"Hey Lizzie!" Miranda said, practically beaming. "This is my new boyfriend, Cameron."
"Hey Lizzie." He saw Gordo next to Lizzie. "Hey, who are you?"
"I'm Gordo."
Lizzie, Britt, and Miranda all began to talk, so Cameron struck up a conversation with Gordo.
"So, do you and Lizzie go out?" he said.
"Man," Gordo replied, smiling. "This seems to be the question to ask, lately. No Lizzie and I do not go out. Me, Miranda and her are best friends. And Britt, is well, Britt. She's the extra girl to the group, so that when they want to talk about girl stuff, and exclude me, the three of them talk."
"Cool."
"Speaking of cool, guys, I need a favor." Britt said, suddenly turning to them.
"What does cool have to do with doing you a favor?"
"You four are cool enough to do me a favor. And besides, I'm a pregnant woman. You have to do what I say." she joked.
"Okay, what is it?" Lizzie asked.
Today is the day for my four-month check up at the doctors. I have to go straight after school. My mom can't go because her new boyfriend John is taking her out. And I need a ride."
"But we can't drive yet." Lizzie said, confused.
"That's what you think." Miranda said, smirking.
"What? Miranda! I thought we agreed the time me, you, and Gordo stole your aunt's car for a joyride was the last time we'd ever do that again!"
"THAT is not what I meant." Miranda said dramatically. "Cameron here can drive. He is in tenth grade, if you didn't know!"
"Wow," Britt said. "I didn't know he was a sophomore! Wait, then how is he in your class, Miranda?
"Exploring Business is a mix of all the grades." She explained.
"Coolie then." Britt announced. "It's settled. We'll all meet by the outside water fountains after school."
"Eew, not the ones the birds poop on, right?" Lizzie said, disgusted.
"Yep! Those very ones!" she chirped. "Just kidding Lizzie! The other ones, the cleaner ones!"
"Good! I like water fountains ONLY when they are sanitary." She said.
Everyone laughed at Lizzie, and although she didn't think it was too funny to like clean water fountains, Lizzie laughed along with them.

Britt sat on the table in the doctor's office, reading a Parenting Today magazine. The nurse had let Lizzie and Miranda join her in the office when they first arrived when they told her they were Britt's sisters. The nurse looked at Britt's red hair, Lizzie's blonde hair, and Miranda's black hair, and knew they were lying. But she let them go back with her anyways.
Britt had finally started to show in the past few weeks, her tummy barely poking out.
Britt had changed into one of those blue open-back gowns the nurse had given her. She kept tugging at the gown.
"I hate these thing," she muttered. "It feels like I'm wearing a piece of paper."
"It IS paper." Miranda said. "That's what they make it of."
"How enlightening." Britt grumbled.
Just then, Dr. Lilly Johansen came in. She looked young, about 30, and was wearing black pants and a pink shirt with the words 'An Apple A Day Won't Keep ME Away!' written on it in purple.
"So, how's the mother-to-be?" Dr. Smith asked Britt.
"Um, er, I'm fine, Dr. Johansen." Britt replied, obviously nervous.
Dr. Johansen laughed and answered "Just call me Lilly. So, you are about 17 weeks along, am I correct?"
"Yes, Dr. Joh- I mean, Lilly." Britt said.
"Are you having any problems?" Dr. Johansen inquired.
"No, none at all." She said, sounding more confident.
"That is SUCH a lie Britt!" Miranda said from where she was sitting.
"Shut up!" Britt said. "What do you know anyways?"
"Who are you two?" Dr. Johansen wanted to know.
"We," Lizzie said. Are her sisters." She said this without sounding as if she were lying. She had become a much better liar than she was in the 7th grade when she wanted to go bra shopping.
Dr. Johansen looked quizzically from Lizzie, to Miranda, then to Britt, and then back to Lizzie.
"Oh," Lizzie said, thinking fast. "We all had different fathers."
Dr. Johansen accepted this answer and then asked "What sort of problems?"
"Well," Britt began reluctantly. "I have heartburn a lot. And sometimes I feel a bit dizzy. And I'm eating a WHOLE lot more than I used to."
"That's perfectly normal." Dr. Johansen said as she went over to Britt, who had already lain down, to put her stethoscope against her skin to listen. "Try to increase you vitamin C and protein intake."
She took off her stethoscope and scribbled something on her clipboard. "Do you have any questions for me?"
"Well," Britt hesitated. "Does it hurt really badly when you have the baby, Lilly?"
"Well, it's not painless, that's for sure." She grinned. "It wont hurt as much if you have drugs or medication. But lots of women choose to go with natural childbirth. It's healthier for the baby. If you wish to go with the natural, I have a few good classes I could refer you to that each you ways to breathe."
"I already know how to breathe, Lilly!" Britt snapped, who was obviously irritated.
Dr. Johansen could help but laugh. "That's not exactly what I meant. A Lamaze class. Knowing ways to breathe help make the birth process easier."
"Yeah, well, I guess. Since it'll be better for the baby."
Dr. Johansen gave Britt a list of good classes, and then they left.
On the way to the Digital Bean from the doctor's office, they sang along loudly with the radio. They were in Cameron's shiny black BMW. His parents were obviously rich. Lizzie had found out from Miranda that his dad was a brain surgeon, or something. Miranda was glad he didn't act snobby because he was rich, and often wondered why Kate didn't try to get with him as soon as she found out he was rich.
"Baby turn around and let me see that sexy body go BUMP BUMP BUMP!" Lizzie, Miranda, and Britt sang loudly, while Gordo and Cameron talked to each other in the front seat. "That is all I wanna see, baby, come on, show me!"
Gordo reached over and turned the radio down. Lizzie, who was sitting behind him, swatted the back of his head.
"I was listening to that!" she said. "Turn it back up!"
"Nope." He said, which got him another swat. "Anyways. We're almost at the Digital Bean."
Almost as soon as Gordo finished saying that, Cameron pulled into the parking lot of the Digital Bean. He found a parking space right in front of the Digital Bean, and they all hopped out of the car.
They found a table in back, and a waitress came and took their orders.
"So, Britt, what are you hoping it is, a boy or a girl?" Gordo asked.
"For the sake of the world, I hope it's a girl. There are enough boys populating the world already, and they tend to either be stupid or mess things up." She said, and both Gordo and Cameron were wondering if she was kidding. Lizzie and Miranda already knew what she was saying was true. "But for me, I'll be delighted with whatever my baby turns out to be."
"If it's a girl and she has your red hair, you could name her Scarlett." Cameron suggested.
"Eew, no!" Miranda said, as if he had suggested eating the baby. "Everyone would call her 'Scar' as a nickname!"
"Well, if it's a boy, you could name him Richard." Lizzie offered.
"Lizzie, you remember what the nickname for Richard is?" Gordo said. "It's Dick.
"Oh, you're right." She said. "DON'T name him Richard!"
The food came, and almost immediately Britt was done with hers. She started to eat everyone else's food, and soon, there was no food left. When everyone looked at Britt, she just said 'Hey, I'm eating for two now!'.
On the ride back, once Britt had already been dropped off at her house, Gordo said "I'm glad that that dance was canceled."
"What dance?" Lizzie asked.
"Remember, the Winter dance? It was supposed to be today. They cancelled it when the whole Mrs. Tillies and Mr. Smith thing happened, and they canceled that PTA waltz thing, too." Miranda said.
"Oh yeah, I remember." Lizzie said. "I had a killer dress for that waltz, too. It was dark green, and it looked really good on me!"
"Yeah, well, I'm disappointed about that too." Miranda sighed. "I had a wine red dress, and this lit-"
"Enough girl talk for today!" Gordo cut in. "And anyways, back to what I was saying. I'm glad they cancelled that waltz because I don't feel like talking to Hilary."
"Yeah, same here with Clift!"
"I got sort of tired of Ethan. Once when we were dancing, I was like, you're a good dancer Ethan, do you dance a lot? And you know what he said?" Miranda didn't wait long enough for anyone to answer. "'I like ketchup and mustard on my hot dogs'" she said in voice that sounded almost exactly like Ethan's, which made them all laugh.
"Here's your stop, Lizzie and Gordo!" Cameron said.
"Thanks for the ride!" Lizzie said. "Call me, Miranda! Come on Gordo!"
"Thanks for the ride, bye guys, I'll call you tonight Miranda, and I'm coming Lizzie." Gordo said.
The BMW pulled off quickly, and Lizzie and Gordo started to walk home.
"Which house first today, mine or yours?" Lizzie asked.
"Um, today, we'll go by yours." he said. "I have to help my neighbor, Ms. Adams, install her computer. My mom volunteered me to do it, without asking me."
"Okay." She said.
"Hey Lizzie?" he asked.
"What?"
"I'm gonna get you back for hitting me on my head today in the car!"
Lizzie laughed, and started to run. Although she got a head start, Gordo was faster than she was, and pretty soon he had caught up with her. He talked her and they landed on someone's front lawn.
"Got ya!" Gordo said and then started tickling her.
"STOP! I mean it!" Although she didn't sound serious since she was laughing.
Gordo stopped, and the two lay there, looking up into the blue November sky. It was perfect, the two of them, laying side by side, not saying anything, but it not being an awkward silence. They had know each other too long for it to be an awkward silence. It was just there, and it was perfect. They were best friends and didn't need too fill up the silence with chatter.
And then a hunched over man with age spots all over his face came out of the house, and waved his cane at them while slowly inching towards them.
"Hey you kids!" he wheezed. "Get off my lawn!"
Lizzie and Gordo stood up, and started running and laughing all the way to Gordo's house. They collapsed into a swing on the porch, and then they finally caught their breath.
"So." Lizzie began. "Why did you break up with Hilary."
Gordo studied Lizzie's face carefully for a moment. He knew if he said the real reason, because Hilary was jealous of Lizzie, Lizzie would do something crazy, like trying to get them back together.
"Lack," he said slowly. "Of trust." And with he grinned.
"That doesn't tell me anything!" Lizzie said.
"It's exactly what you told me when you and Clift broke up!" Gordo said playfully.
They both laughed, and when the looked at each other they couldn't stop looking into each other's eyes. Finally, Gordo spoke.
"I better go in now." Gordo said.
"Yeah, you should." She replied, still looking into his eyes. "Yeah, well, see ya."
"See you, Lizzie." And then he goes inside of his house.
Lizzie walked down his porch steps, across his front lawn, got back on the sidewalk, and began to walk home.
