Chapter 2

"Lizzie! Wake up Nick,Miranda, and Gordo are here!" Jo McGuire yelled up the stairs to her oldest child.

Lizzie woke with a start and decided to change into her purple swim suit. When she finally reached downstairs she was surprised at what she saw. Gordo was wearing blue swim trunks with a white tee shirt on.

"Hey guys." Lizzie said to her friends. "What's up?"

"Well, you told us to wear our swim suits today so, we did. But when you didn't show, Gordo decided that we should come over here instead of waiting." Miranda told her friend.

"Oh, ok. Sorry for the delima. But, let's just get to the pool." Lizzie replied.

Two hours later, Lizzie and Miranda went back to Lizzie's house to change into regular clothes.

"Lizzie, you were totally flirting with Gordo." Miranda whispered to Lizzie.

"So, it's just flirting, Miranda."

"No, not so! He's 16 and your 13."

"Miranda! What's so wrong about that?"

"Uh, hello how blonde can you be? He's three years older than you!"

"Yeah, so what?"

"Ugh, you can be so dumb some times."

"What are you talking about, Miranda! Gordo and I are just friends! Nothing more, nothing less." Lizzie told Miranda as they returned downstairs with normal clothes on.

"Ugh, whatever. Listen,Lizzie, I just don't want you to get hurt. That's all."

"Get hurt? Miranda, I'm not even going out with the guy. Much less crushing on him."

"Crushing on who?" Gordo asked when he appeared in Lizzie's living room.

"No one!" Lizzie said a little too fast.

"Uh, ok. I guess Nick and I will see you two tommorow."

"Yeah, sure." Lizzie said a slight blush creeping on her cheeks.

A couple of monthes went by and then it was finally summer. Lizzie, Gordo, Miranda, and Nick were inseperable. And Miranda's mother was infuriated about what happened a weekend ago.

"Miranda, I can't believe that your mother grounded you from going anywhere and the computer. But, I'm just happy that you can talk on the phone." Lizzie told her grounded friend.

"I can't believe it either. So, is Gordo going to go back to where he came from?" Miranda asked coldly.

"Miranda what's your problem? Gordo can't have anything with you being grounded can he?"

"No, but I blame him for getting me grounded any way."

"Uh, why?" Lizzie asked getting angry.

"Because of the dare. You know the one where I had to french kiss Gordo."

"Dude! That is not his fault! You could've said that you didn't want to do the dare but no you just had to do it because I can't let go of a challenge. And this is the part where I hang up on you!"
