As I walked toward the school bus, walking as quickly as I could just in case I was late to the bus. When finally I saw the stop sign she decided to get there then call her mom to tell her she had gotten to the bus stop safely. As she got closer she saw a tall blonde girl sitting on the long brown bench that desperately needed a new paint job.
I called out "HEY LIZ!"
Liz turned a bright smile coming on to her face as she saw me "Hey Felicity!"
We ran toward each other like friends who hadn't seen each other in weeks. I knew my mom would be fine with me inviting my best friend to stay over at my house.
Since I tended to get a little creeped out, if I didn't have someone there with me "Would you like to come over tonight?"
My friend hesitated a moment then nodded "Yeah I think that will be fine my mom is taking care of the terror twins tonight." I nodded, it was rare Elizabeth got an opportunity like this we definitely needed to celebrate her freedom even if it was just for tonight "My mom will be ordering pizza tonight because she'll be home late, so we can watch a movie or something to celebrate your freedom." Liz laughed "That sounds great"
A voice I knew well came from behind me "So,what am I just chopped liver now!" I laughed out loud turning around to face my other best friend Carl
Liz did the same, saying "Yes, Carl that's exactly what you are chopped sushi didn't you know that." In a playful sarcastic tone.
For 3 years Liz and Carl have both had a crush on each other but were both too stubborn to admit it unless ofcouse it was to me. So, I had done my best during those years to play matchmaker and get them to finally become the cute couple I knew they should be. I was brought out of my thought when the bus pulled up coming to a screeching halt. The driver opened the door and we all got in giving the bus driver a polite "hello" before finding our normal seats which were in the back of the vehicle.....
