| Elizabeth Wakefield I miss Connor so much. Ever since he went to rehab, I feel like half of me is gone. The weirdest thing has been happening to me, everywhere I go, I keep seeing him. It's like I'm hallucinating or something. I was shopping in the mall the other day and the salesperson turned into Connor, I shook my head and the next minute, the salesperson wasn't Connor. I better snap out of this before I do anything really embrarrassing! Will Simmons That's it, I've had it with Liss! She's been stalking me around the halls and it's driving me crazy. Everywhere I go, she's there. I'm at my locker, she's there, I'm watching my friends on the football field, she's there, I'm in the cafeteria and yes, SHE'S THERE!!!. What do you have to do to give someone the message!. AAARRRGHHHH!!!!!! Elizabeth walked down the halls of SVH when she spotted Connor at his locker. Elizabeth raced up and wrapped her arms around his waist. "I've missed you so much" Elizabeth said, throatily, holding on tight. All of a sudden, "Connor" turned around and turned back into Todd Wilkins. "I've missed you too, Liz" Todd said with a laugh. "But do you have to hold me so tight?". Todd unraveled her arms from around his waist. Elizabeth was blushing. "I'm so sorry, Todd" Elizabeth apologised, looking at the floor, wishing it would swallow her up. "I just.....". How was she going to explain this one? "It's okay, Liz" Todd said, good-naturedly. "Anytime you want to come up and hug me, just say the word". Elizabeth reddened more. "Um, thanks" Elizabeth replied, awkwardly. "I'll see you around" Todd said, quickly gathering his books. Todd shut his locker, flashed her a smile and walked off down the hall towards class. Elizabeth stepped towards her own locker when she locked eyes with her best friend, Maria Slater, whose mouth was hanging open. "What was that about?" Maria asked, curiously, looking down the hall in the direction Todd had left in. "Oh, just thought I'd be friendly, you know spread the love" Elizabeth lied. Maria was even more confused. Elizabeth turned to her locker and focused on getting out the right books for her classes. "Liz, are you okay?" Maria asked, concerned. "Ever since Connor left you've been either moping around or doing crazy things". "I'm sorry, I've just been feeling different, that's all, maybe I'm just changing my attitude since I don't know when Connor's coming back" Elizabeth stammered. Maria wrapped her arm around Elizabeth's shoulder. "It's alright, Liz. But just remember, we're all here for you in your time of loneliness" Maria told her. Elizabeth smiled at her. "Thanks, but I'm really fine" Elizabeth added. Maria nodded. "C'mon, Let's get to class before we do something even more crazy like get detention" Maria said with a laugh. Elizabeth followed her into homeroom. |
