"Lizzie?" Jo asked.
Lizzie lay face down on her bed, head buried in her pillow ready to suffocate herself.
Animated Lizzie She is lying on an animated bed and sticks her head out from under the pillow "It wasn't worth living if Kate rules the earth, well at least the halls of Hildridge Junior High." Sticks head back under pillow. (Slightly muffled) "This is the worst day of my life!"
"Leave me alone."
"Okay but you'll miss the dinner I planned."
"Go away." She sobbed
"I know it's been awhile since I was a teen-"
"You know nothing about being a teen, mom."
"Just tell me what happened."
"Okay." Lizzie took a deep breath and then explained what Kate had done.
"Oh my." Jo replied "When has Kate been so mean. I remember when you two were practically inseparable.
"Those days are long gone." Lizzie scowled. Yet somewhere deep inside she couldn't help but long for that friend she lost so may months ago.
"Well come on down for dinner and have something to eat. It'll make you feel better. I promise." Jo said as she got up form the bed and walked to the door.
"Okay" Lizzie said.
She Got up and went to her vanity mirror to fix her make up as Jo went to further entertain her guests.
Her mascara was all smeared and she was in desperate need of a new coat of lip-gloss. She then gave her hair a quick brush and looked back in the mirror.
Animated Lizzie "Okay girl, you can do this."
Lizzie took a deep breath and slowly made her way down stairs. She could hear her mom energetically talking to another woman. She turned the corner of the stairs and found her mom sitting at the table with five strangers. One was red headed and had a kind hearted smile. That was The Senator, Ilene. There was a somewhat balding man with a look of great strain on him. That was Steve Stevens. One had perfect brown hair done in a perfect ponytail and she constantly smiled a perfect smile. That was of course Ren. One had curly brown hair and soft brown eyes with a goofy smile. Louis. And at last but not least the most handsome guy Lizzie had ever seen, excluding of course Ethan. He had wavy blond hair and sparkling brown eyes. His smile was gorgeous and he had a complexion to die for. He wore a collared shirt and khaki pants with a letter jacket on the back of his seat. He was Donny Stevens. What luck! There was a seat at the table right next to him. Lizzie shyly sat next to Donnie, Hopping he'd take notice. Instead he was intent on looking at his reflection in his spoon.
"Donnie!" Ilene hissed. Donnie put down the spoon and uttered a meek apology.
"Hi" Lizzie said shyly
"Huh? Oh Hi." said Donnie still looking at himself in his spoon.
"Lizzie! What a pleasant surprise!" Jo said as if nothing had just happened between the two of them.
"Yeah, glad to see you've decided to join us." Sam agreed.
"Not all of us are glad to see her." Matt uttered softly to Lanny.
Lanny agreed with silent laughter.
"Ha, ha! Good one "Louis snickered
Matt and Lanny gave him two thumbs up.
I saw that you weasel!" Lizzie snarled. She turned to Donnie and blushed. "You know how little brothers can be."
"Yeah Louis can be a real pest." Donnie, fully satisfied that his hair and complexion were at their optimum had finally abandoned the spoon and was now focused his mind on more important things. "By the way, this dinner better be over in time for the game tonight.
"Hey that Green bay, Lions Game?" Joe said
"Yeah that one." Donnie's eyes lit up as the conversation turned to his favorite subject.
"You know Farve has been looking pretty good these last few games. They make it all the way this year."
"Yeah totally, I mean the way he threw that fifty yard field goal last Sunday was amazing!"
"Ahem!" Jo said "I believe we have more important things to discuss."
"Yes, like the schools." Ilene agreed
"Well my schools trash, I'll tell you that much." Lizzie muttered. "Any one know of a good recipe for revenge?"
"Revenge." Both Matt and Louis said together
"I can most definitely help you." Louis said
"Yuck! Why do you want to help her?" Matt gagged
"You'll understand someday." Louis said no too mysteriously
"I'll already know now and I'm asking you 'why do you want to help her'?
"Louis!" "Matt!" Said the mothers sternly
Animated Lizzie Stokes chin and ponders aloud "Hmmm. Maybe this isn't such a bad day after all..."
Okay what do you think?
Kinda short I know but I am tired and it is late...
Lizzie: Thankies for helping me with my "Kate" problem!
Me: Hold your horses' girl the fun has only just begun...
