Chapter 2- Hanging Out

McGuire Residence:

It was Saturday morning and the sun was shining through Lizzie's window. It woke her up, she looked at the clock and it read 9:00 A.M. She quickly got up to get ready for her day with David.

Gordon Residence:

David got up extra early that morning to get ready. He wanted to look nice since he was going to hang out with Lizzie. He showered and wore light brown shorts, a black wife beater, and some comfortable shoes. He really liked Lizzie, he knew she would be a really good friend, Yesterday it felt so easy to talk to her. At first when his mom told him about her, he thought she would be some stuck girl who only cared about herself but she was far from that. Even thought he missed his friends in Boston, he knew he would have fun in Hillridge again.

LIZZIE'S HOUSE:

David knocked on the front door and Matt opened it.

David: "Hey Matt is your sister ready?"

Matt: "Umm let me check." he said sleepily as he yelled out for Lizzie.

Lizzie: "David, hey! I've been waiting for you. Lets go meet the gang." she said excitedly.

DIGITAL BEAN:

Jamie, Erica, and Brian were sitting at the table waiting for Lizzie and her new friend to come so they could hang out. Brian was more excited because now he wasn't going to be the only guy in the group. They looked over at the door and saw Lizzie walk in talking to a tall guy with curly hair.

Lizzie: "Hey guys!" she said as she and David walked up to their table.

Jamie, Erica, Brian: "Hey Liz!"

Lizzie: "Guys this is David, he's going to be hanging out with us from now on. David this is Jamie, Erica, and Brian." she said pointing to each person.

Jamie: "Nice to meet you David, Lizzie told us about you yesterday."

Erica: "Yeah she wouldn't stop talking about you." she said laughing and causing Lizzie to blush.

Brian: "Dude! Am I glad you're here. I mean I love hanging with these girls but it's so good to know that I get to have a guy around to talk about guy stuff you know." he said shaking David's hand and causing everyone to laugh.

David: "Yeah Lizzie told me you would be." he said laughing.

Jamie: "So David how did you like Boston?" she asked as David and Lizzie sat down.

David: "It was pretty cool. I loved it there but I guess I miss it sometimes."

Erica: "What about here?"

David: "Well the first day we came here I have to admit I hated it but then my mom told me about a child hood friend and her family came over. When I met Lizzie, everything changed. I didn't hate Hillridge anymore." he said looking at Lizzie.

Jamie: "Aww how sweet!" she said causing everyone to laugh.

Erica: "Did you have a girlfriend there?"

David: "Yeah, actually I broke up with one before I came here, actually she broke up with me."

Lizzie: "That sucks."

David: "It doesn't matter, I used to love her but she changed. She became someone that I didn't know anymore so she made things easier when she broke it off."

Brian: "Don't worry dude, there's plenty of hot girls here. Not that I'm interested." he said looking at Erica scared.

Erica: "What he means is that there are plenty of great girls here who you would really like" she said looking at Brian.

Brian: "Exactly. Hey David, do you surf?"

David: "No, but I've always wanted to try it."

Brian: "Cool dude, I'll teach you man. Why don't we all go home and get in our suits and meet at the beach in 30 minutes. I have an extra surfboard, I'll bring it with me. What do you guys say?"

David: "I'm up for it."

Lizzie: "Ok then lets go. We'll meet you guys there in 30 minutes." she said starting to get up.

David and Lizzie left together since David didn't know his way around much. David liked all of Lizzie's friends, they seemed pretty cool to hang with.

THE BEACH:

The beach was fairly empty that day because everyone was at the public pool. The girls lounged in one spot together tanning as Brian was teaching David how to surf. They hadn't gone in the water yet. David thought Lizzie looked extra nice in her two piece bathing suit.

Lizzie: "So what do you guys think of David?"

Jamie: "He's cool, I like him."

Erica: "Yeah me too."

Lizzie: "Good he said he liked you guy too. He's a really nice guy and I think he'll make a good friend."

Jamie: "Yeah and I have to admit he's pretty hot." she said looking at a now shirtless David.

All the girls looked over and saw that David had taken his shirt off. He was pretty toned and had nice muscles and abs. They saw two girls starting to walk towards him and Brian.

Erica: "Oh my gosh that's Kate and Miranda!" she said taking off her sunglasses.

Lizzie: "Oh no I am not letting them take him away from us." she said quickly starting to get up to go by David.

Kate and Miranda had already gotten to him and were talking to him. David was smiling at something they said and vice versa. Jamie, Erica, and Lizzie were running to get there in time. Brian was off cleaning the surfboards.

Lizzie: "Hey David, are you going in the water yet?" she asked cutting off their conversation.

David: "Yeah, Brian's cleaning the surfboard. Do you guys know…" he started to say pointing to Kate and Miranda.

Lizzie, Jamie, Erica: "Yes!" they all yelled at the same time.

David: "Oh….umm…..ok." he said feeling a little awkward.

Kate: "Well David see you at school or around. Call us if you need anything." she said handing him a paper.

Miranda: "And if you need anyone to hang out with, your welcome to hang out with us." she said winking at him and making a dirty face for Lizzie as they walked away.

David: "Ok thanks! You guys look like you hate them." he said looking at the girls angry faces.

Jamie: "Yeah well Lizzie has a history with them and we just well hate them." she said referring to her and Erica.

Brian: "Girls! Come help me with this!" he yelled to Jamie and Erica.

Lizzie: "Lets walk and I'll give you a short summary of my life with Miranda and Kate." she said starting to walk down the beach and David followed.

David: "Wow it's sounds so serious." he said laughing.

Lizzie: "I guess it kind of is. I'll start with Kate. It used to be me, Miranda, and Kate best friends since kindergarten, then middle school started and I find out Kate's in the cheerleading squad so she ditched us and we hated her for it. Then high school starts and Miranda joins the squad and starts making excuses to ditch me then one day I caught her laughing and hanging with Kate and the squad, she told me she had to talk to a teacher about her essay. The next day she leaves a letter in my locker saying that she doesn't want to hang out with me anymore because she's not having fun but she has much more fun hanging out with Kate and the squad. So I write one back saying all these bad horrible things because I was so angry at her for abandoning me. Kate and Miranda left me in the cold. I already knew Jamie from my English class so we started to hang out together and then Erica and Brian joined us and now you. I'm happy again." she explained to him.

David: "Wow! I can't believe they did that to you."

Lizzie: "Yeah I mean I felt so alone you know, I thought they messed up my high school career but then I bounced back." she said laughing.

David: "Do you ever get scared that we'll do that to you too?"

Lizzie: "No because I know none of them would want to hurt me and you well we just became friends and it'll take a year before you'll think of ditching me." she said smiling at him.

David: "I'd never want to leave you!" he said laughing and pulling her in for a hug.

For some reason it was so easy for Lizzie to trust David. She knew that he would never hurt her even though he was a new friend to her. Somehow she knew he was different.

Lizzie: "I know you would never leave me, you'd miss me too much!"

David: "Your right."

The girls swam as the boys surfed. Everyone was having fun. David kept falling off as the girls encouraged him. A big wave came and David barely got up but he fell again. Brian and the girls laughed but stopped short when they saw he hadn't come up from the water.

Lizzie: "David! Where are you?" she yelled starting to get scared.

Lizzie went underwater to look for him as did the others but they couldn't see him anywhere.

Lizzie: "Oh my gosh you guys where is he! Ahhh!" she screamed as someone grabbed her from behind.

David: "Boo!" he yelled grabbing Lizzie.

Lizzie: "You scared the hell out of me! I thought you drowned! That was so not funny. You better start running because I'm going to get you!" she said starting to laugh as were the others.

Brian: "Dude she's serious, run!" he yelled laughing.

David started to run out of the water as Lizzie chased him. Jamie, Erica, and Brian were having fun laughing at them. They knew the rest of the summer would be fun but when school started things might change for better or for worse.
