Chapter 17
LizBeth called Sparkle, but no one answered the phone, so she figured she might be online. To her surprise she wasn't. So she got off, and paged her. About 15 minutes later, Sparkle called her back.
"Hello?"
"Hello, Lizbeth?,"
"Yeah. Girl, where have you been?!"
"Soccer practice, why?" Sparkle could tell LizBeth had something important to say.
"Oh, well listen..." LizBeth told Sparkle everything. From what was said between Taylor and her, to what happened when they weren't talking, but still using their mouths.
"So, y'all was kissin? But I thought you were mad at him! I mean, how could you not return his phone calls, yet, you can lay down on a couch with with the boy! LizBeth, what were you thinking?!" Sparkle could not believe what LizBeth had just told her. She thought that she would never even look at Taylor. Let alone make out with him.
"I dont know what I was thinking! It's not like I planned it, it just sorta happened." LizBeth said. Although it seemed like LizBeth did this kind of thing all the time, she really didn't. She flirted a lot, but that's where it stopped.
"I am so sorry," LizBeth said.
"Why are you telling me sorry? It's not like I like him or anything," Sparkle replied. She was truly shocked by LizBeth's actions. She was probably the only person who really knew how LizBeth was when it came to guys. In all reality, when it came down to guys, Sparkle had done more that LizBeth.
"I'm saying sorry because I'm always lecturing you about what you do with guys, and then I go and do this. It makes me look like a hipocrite. So, I'm sorry," LizBeth said. She was dissapointed in herself. Sparkle couldn't believe how smart LizBeth sounded. She didn't only sound like it, she truly was. She just never showed it off. At school she gave off the impression that she was no way interested in school, but somehow she always seem to pass all of her classes successfully.
"It's okay LizBeth. You don't have to apologize. It wasn't your fault. Besides you can't be perfect all the time. You have to have at least one flaw, It's a law you know," Sparkle said in a sarcastic way that made both girls start laughing.
"Well I've got to call i saac, and straighten everything out with him. Cross your fingers he doesn't hate me."
"Cool. Well, buh-bye."
"Bye."
Both girls hung up the phone. Sparkle smiled at herself. It was funny to her how LizBeth always tried to be perfect in everyway. Most of the time she was perfect. Today, was totally one of her bad days.
"Hello, Isaac?"
"Yes"
"This is LizBeth,"
"Oh"
"Look, before you hang up ohn me, just listen to me. I know you what happened between me and Taylor. But I swear, I didn't mean to do it."
"So, you accendently kissed my brother, laid on the couch, and just made out him, but you didn't mean to??"
"Isaac, you know what I mean. But, how di dyou know exactly what happened."
"Well, the next time you makeout with someone in your living room, try closing the curtain"
"Oh, but Isaac, I really am sorry. Please don't hate me."
"Oh, okay. Apology accepted." Isaac said with a playful voice.
"So we're cool now?!"
"Yeah, we are."
"Cool! Well, I have to go now. But I'll talk to you later."
"Okay bye"
"Later."
Something hit LizBeth after she hung up the phone with Isaac. Why was she pleading for Isaac's forgiviness because she made out with his brother?? She had not yet formed any kind of relationship with Isaac except friendship. She could tell that she had really come to like Isaac a whole lot. So all she had to do is to turn on her charm with Isaac and get him to ask her out.
Zac and Sparkle sat on the swings at the park. Zac felt as though the girl sitting next to him was teh love of his life. She was special, in a way. He didn't know how, but she just was. He turned around to look at her.
"You know, you look really beautiful right now," Sparkle was so surprised with this comment because all she had on was some jeans, a baseball t-shirt, and her hair was up in a messy pony tail.
"No I don't"
"Yeah, you do. You are so pretty. You know, you're really special to me Spark. I like you a lot."
"Thanks. You are really special to me too. And I like you a lot too."
Zac extended his hand to Sparkle, and brought her over to him. He sat her on his lap, and gave her a kiss. He then held her close in his arms. At that moment, nothing in the world could bother them. Nothing.
