Chapter 5. Love Makes The World Go 'Round
2 years later (6th grade):
"Hi, Kate!" Lizzie said. "We missed you this summer!" Claire rolled her eyes and Kate turned around.
"What do you want? I can't be seen talking to someone like you," Kate snapped. Lizzie's jaw hung open.
"Are you wearing makeup? And a ...bra?" she asked. Kate rolled her eyes and pushed her aside.
"You mind? You're on our way," Claire said.
"Kate, why are you with Claire? She always made fun of us," Lizzie pouted.
"Just... get out, McGuire!" Kate said, her lower lip quivering a little. Lizzie's lips began to quiver as well and she ran out of the class. Kate's eyes followed her, tearing.
"Kate? Where's Lizzie?" Bella asked. Gordo and Miranda were next to her, staring at Kate.
"I bet she's crying!" Claire said. Miranda glared her. Gordo's eyes were fixed in Kate's face. She was looking down, avoiding his and Bella's hurtful looks. "Ugh, I guess she's in the bathroom" Miranda ran to the bathroom, Bella gave Kate a last glance and followed her. "Why don't you go after them?"
"I can't get in the girls bathroom," Gordo said. Kate continued looking down. He sighed. "Goodbye forever, Katie" he left. Kate's eyes filled with tears.
'This was your decision,' she thought. 'Now, stick with it'
Later, Lizzie's at the park swings:
"Hey Lizzie," Gordo said, his cute baby-blue eyes searching for her look. He sat on the swing next to her, waiting.
"Why's Kate being so mean?" she cried. He hugged her and she rested her head on his chest.
"She just... changed," he said. "Over the summer"
"Did you know she was going to a Cheerleading Camp? I heard her talking about it" Gordo sighed.
"I heard something about that too," he admitted. She cried a little, her head still on his chest, and he stroked her hair, his eyes staring lovely at her. She looked up, their eyes met. Shyly, Gordo leaned in. She blinked a few times, then leaned in too. They kissed, short but sweetly. They pulled appart, her teary eyes looking at him. She smiled shyly and he smiled back, caressing her hand.
"Uhm... I gotta go," Lizzie said abruptly. She waved at him and ran out of the park. A few minutes later, Bella appeared and went next to Gordo.
"Hi!" she said smiling. He smiled back. "So... what's up?"
"Nothing," he said. "Well, actually... I need advice from a girl" she nodded. "I like somebody, but I don't know if she likes me back, though we..." he made a short pause.
"C'mon! You can tell me anything!" she said. He nodded. "Who is she?"
"She's... She's Lizzie," he said, not noticing her face dropping. "We kissed" those last words finished breaking poor Bella's heart. She nodded, swallowing her tears.
"W-Well, wh-what do you need t-to know?" she asked him.
"After we kissed-" Bella closed her eyes, feeling the tears coming. "-we smiled and she left. I don't know if she regreted it or what, but..." he stopped after seeing her face. "Are you okay?" she got up.
"Uhm... I have a stomache... gotta go," she said, and started walking slowly to her home. Gordo stood there, feeling confused at the McGuire girls actions.
End of chapter.
"Here, here I am again
And I'm starin at these same four walls
Alone again
And now, all the colors blend
And I'm growing old and I've become
This empty thing
Hold on, it's tragic
Stumbling through all this static
I just wanna talk to you
And my broken heart just has no use
And I, I guess promises are better
left unsaid, yeah
Everytime you try to tell me
You say the words that I'm the only
But I'm the one who's crying on the ground
When you say love makes the world go 'round
My love, look at what you've done to me
For someone who has felt so strong
It's amazing I'm completely gone
Hold on, it's tragic
Stumbling through all this static
I just wanna talk to you
And my broken heart just has no use
And I, I guess promises are better
left unsaid, yeah
Everytime you try to tell me
You say the words that I'm the only
But I'm the one who's crying on the ground,
When you say love makes the world go 'round
It's not the love you give me
I'd rather be alone, believe me
It's not the way you've found to treat me
I'd rather walk away
I just wanna talk to you
And my broken heart just has no use
And I, I guess promises are better
left unsaid, yeah
Everytime you try to tell me
You say the words that I'm the only
But I'm the one whos crying on the ground,
When you say love makes the world go 'round, yeah
You say love makes the world go 'round
Everytime you try to tell me
I don't care you're not the only
Don't you know I'm coming back around
Cuz I say love makes the world go 'round, yeah
Cuz I say love makes the world go 'round."
