Chapter 3 "Disaster"
Lizzie got up and ran to the bathroom. She pulled on the green shirt Gordo bought her. Next, she pulled on a short jean skirt. She stuck her feet in some black flip flops with green sequins. Lizzie pulled her blonde
hair into a ponytail with her bangs swept to both sides. Lizzie put little black studs in her ears. Lizzie applied a little make up and walked out of her room. "Morning Honey!" Lizzie's mom said. "Mornin Mom!" Lizzie said,
pulling out a chair to sit in. Matt pulled the chair from under her and she fell to the floor. "Lizzie, Are you OKAY!" Mrs. Mcguire screamed, running over to Lizzie who was lying on the floor, silently. "Is she dead?" Matt
asked, getting up. "Hmmm, Hmmm What happened?" Lizzie asked, picking up her head. "Matt hurt you... But don't worry! He's grounded for at least 6 months." Lizzie's mother said, helping Lizzie up. "What the hell!"
Matt screamed. "Make that a yeaar!" Jo screamed. "Can I have some breakfast before I go hang out with Gordo?" Lizzie asked. "Sure, Sweetie!" Jo said, handing her a granola bar. "Okay, Bye Mom!" Lizzie said,
walking out the door. "Bye, Honey!" Jo yelled back. "Yay, My Car!" Lizzie said, climbing into her HONDA. She drove to Gordo's house and walked inside. His parents weren't home. "Gordo! I'm here!" Lizzie yelled. "Right
here, Liz!" Gordo yelled. He was in his living room, putting in a video for them to watch. He went back on to the couch. Lizzie came in and sat on his lap. "Hey, Liz What's up?" Gordo asked. Lizzie got up and sat right
next to Gordo. "Nothing Much, cutie!" Lizzie said, kissing him on the lips. He put his arm around her waist and they watched the movie. After the movie they climbed into the car, going to get Miranda. Miranda got in
and they drove to a local swimming pool. Lizzie pulled off her green tee and skirt to reveal a pink bikini. Miranda had a yellow bikini. Gordo pulled off his shirt. They all held hands, Lizzie in the middle, and walked to the
deep end. They jumped in holding hands. Gordo and Miranda floated up. Lizzie didn't. "Where is Liz!" Gordo screamed. "L-L-Look down." Miranda said, crying. Gordo looked down. There he saw Lizzie lying on the pool
floor. "Let's get her before she dies!" Gordo yelled diving down. He got Lizzie and heaved her back up, to air. Nothing happened. Lizzie just lay there motionless. Miranda was already out of the pool calling the hospital
on Lizzie's cell. Two minutes later the ambulance came speeding down the street. Lizzie was out of the pool on a chair. But motionless. "We'll take it from here!" The ambulance driver said, picking up Lizzie. "We're
coming with!" Miranda and Gordo screamed. "Okay! Get in, Quick!" screamed the driver. They climbed in, and sat down. "Will she be okay?" Gordo asked. "I don't think she'll live, sir." The doctor said. "NO!" Gordo
screamed. He started to cry. Miranda had never seen Gordo cry before. "Gordo it'll be ok." Miranda said, staring at Lizzie's motionless body. When they arrived at the hospital, Miranda called Lizzie's family. "Hi, Jo
speaking." Mrs. Mcguire said, not knowing what was about to be told to her. "Lizzie, uh, She... She droooowwned." Miranda said, sobbing. "MY BABY!" Jo screamed and hung up the phone. She arrived 15 minutes
later. The doctor walked up to the three loved ones of Lizzie. "The reason she didn't come up is because the filter/drain pulled her down. It wouldn't have happened if the cover was on it safely." The doctor said. "Is she
going to be okay?" Mrs. Mcguire asked. "I don't think so..." The doctor said and walked off.
