Romeo and Juliet

Chapter 1: The Play

A/N: My third fanfic. Please go easy on reviews. The gang is still in eighth grade. Takes place right after Lizzie in the Middle. This is going to be mostly dialogue, not thoughts, unlike the Lizzie McGuire Movie I wrote. There will be some thoughts, though. L/G all the way! And I know that the plot is really basic, and used a lot, but I just want to use it for Lizzie McGuire. And if you have a problem with my un-originality, don't read this fanfic. As simple as that, okay? Oh, yeah... I DON'T OWN LIZZIE MCGUIRE! ~Person Y2K

Lizzie's POV

(in drama class)

"Right." I rolled my eyes. "This is great. Just great." I said sarcastically.

"Why is so bad?" Miranda whispered to me. "I mean, you met Frankie Muniz this way."

"Yeah, I know. And look how we ended up." I reminded her.

Animated Lizzie: Okay, let me give you the 411 here. Mr. Digg, out drama teacher wants us to do a play. Well, he had it planned for a long time, but it didn't happen untill Frankie Muniz went back to LA. So now we have to do Romeo and Juliet. And the downside is, we all have to be a part of it.

"Good point."

"Well, I guess I'll just try to get the tiniest part possible." I whispered back.

Brrrrring!

"Class dismissed." Mr. Digg said as he started to erase the chalkboard.

"So who are you trying out for, Ethan?" I heard a sickening-sweet voice ask as I got up.

"Uh... who's that main dude?" He asked absentmindedly.

"Romeo." Kate replied.

"Um, does he use a sword?"

"I think so." Kate smiled her famous fake smile.

"Cool! I'm going for him, then!" Ethan left the room.

My jaw dropped. "Oh, my gosh! Did you hear that?"

"What?" Miranda asked.

"Ethan Craft is trying out for Romeo!" I squealed. "I'm soo going to be Juliet!"

Gordo rolled his eyes. "You said you wanted to get the smallest part." He pointed out.

"Well, that was before I knew Ethan is going to be Romeo! I mean, I get to kiss him!" I exclaimed.

"So what are you trying out for?" Miranda asked Gordo.

"Romeo." He said quietly.

"WHAT!" We both practically screamed.

"What?" He asked. "What's wrong with that?"

"It's just... it's you, Gordo. There's got to be a reason." I said.

Animated Lizzie: His college records. Or some director reason. Or...

"Oh, my gosh!" Miranda exclaimed. "I know why!"

His eyes widened. "You do?" He asked breathlessly.

"You so like her! It's obvious!"

"Like who?" He said innocently.

A little too innocently. He seemed scared. I gave him a suspicious glare.

Animated Lizzie: Oooooooooh.

"Parker McKenzie! You totally have a thing for her! She's trying out for Juliet, too." Miranda exclaimed.

Animated Lizzie: OOOOOOOOOOOOOH!

Gordo looked confused for a moment, and then smiled. "Okay, how did you guys know I like her?"

"We can tell by the way you look at her." I said smartly.

Little did we know that Gordo wasn't trying out for Parker...

A/N: Like it so far? I think it's cute. This fanfic won't be really long, trust me. But it might take a long time to write, since I'm working on two other stories at the same time.
