This is the sequel to More Than Friends. Who honestly didn't see this coming? Lol.
I've decided on the pairing for the 6th Fairytale Collection story (my god, what have I created?). I feel like I can create the best story using Jason with Amanda. She's the one who's plot I have the most developed and am getting the best feeling from but I have no idea when I'm going to actually start writing it. I've started too many things and need to complete some of them before I start something new.
A/N – "Thoughts"
Chapter 1 – End Of Summer
It was nearing the end of summer vacation and the beginning of senior year. The summer had been great for the new couple. It was still a hard balancing act between making time for each other and time for their friends, namely Lizzie, but they seemed to be pulling it off.
But it was also nice when the McGuires had gone on vacation for two weeks, allowing Miranda and Gordo to be a couple the whole time during those two weeks alone.
The two weeks had been incredible for them and a small part of them didn't want it to end. But another part of them missed their best friend.
After the McGuires had arrived home from the airport and Lizzie unpacked, she immediately headed over to the Sanchez's. She wanted to catch up with Miranda and knew there was a pretty good chance Gordo would be there too.
After knocking on the door and Mrs. Sanchez letting her in, she quickly made her way upstairs towards Miranda's bedroom. The door was slightly open, so without giving it much thought, Lizzie pushed it open and walked in.
"Hey Mir. Wha," Lizzie started to say as she walked in the room. "Sorry!" she said while quickly spinning around. She was torn between embarrassment and amusement because Lizzie had just walked in on Miranda and Gordo making out on her bed.
Gordo had been laying ontop of Miranda. He had one hand threaded through her black hair and cradling the back of her head and his other hand resting about half way up underneath her shirt. Miranda's hands had one hand about to slide inside Gordo's jeans and another gripping his belt buckle.
When Miranda heard the door open and then Lizzie's voice, using a surge of adrenaline, she practically threw Gordo off her. Unfortunately for Gordo, he landed on the edge of the bed and flipped off, landing hard on the floor with a loud thud.
"Lizzie!" Miranda shouted excitedly with a mix of surprise, embarrassment, and delight. Miranda jumped up and rushed over to her.
Lizzie turned back around and hugged Miranda. "I'm so sorry," Lizzie said trying not to laugh in her face about catching them.
Miranda blushed a little but tried to laugh it off. "Better you than my mom." she tired to joke.
A groan from the other side of the bed interrupted them and they both grinned as they watched Gordo slowly sit up.
"Ever heard of knocking Liz?" Gordo said as he sat up rubbing the back of his head.
"Well I wasn't expecting you to be groping my best friend," Lizzie teased him as he slowly got to his feet. Gordo gave her a dirty look, which caused both girls to start giggling.
Lizzie and Miranda sat down on the side of the bed and Gordo sat behind them. "How was Walla Walla?" Miranda asked her.
The McGuires had spent their two weeks vacation visiting some of Jo's family that lived in Washington.
"Long and boring. My cousins were younger than Gabby and more annoying than Matt. I am so glad to be home," Lizzie told her. "So what's been going on here? Well aside from Gordo trying to feel you up."
"Shut up," Miranda told her with a smirk. "Well, Veruca is now going out with Nick Pernta, we double dated with them last weekend. He's a junior but he's a nice guy. You'll meet him first day back. Kate and Ethan did their normal break up and then get back together routine."
"Why don't you tell her what happened at the movies," Gordo said with a smirk.
Lizzie looked back at Gordo for a moment and then at Miranda, "What happened?" she asked curiously.
Miranda glared at Gordo, "Nothing happened."
Gordo snickered, "Miranda threatened to rip Parker's head off."
Lizzie grinned, trying not to laugh. "Why did you do that?"
Gordo wrapped his arms around Miranda's waist and rested his chin on her shoulder, "Cause she's very possessive," he teased.
Miranda elbowed him in the ribs, "You've gotta open those beautiful blue eyes of yours you dork," she shot back at him. "Parker was hitting on you. If I hadn't walked up, she would've tried to feel you up. So I politely told her to get her grubby hands of my man or I'd snap her little neck." She then quickly added with a smirk to Gordo, "Nobody hits on my man but me."
Lizzie laughed and shook her head. "Perfect. So anything else?"
Miranda smiled, "Remember I told you about Claire at your after-prom party."
Lizzie grinned, "Yea. She was drooling over Larry."
"Well, Larry is working at the Electronics Shack now. We were at the mall a few days ago and Gordo had to get some more rewritable cds, so we stopped by. As Gordo was getting his stuff, Larry and me were talking at the counter. As we were talking, Claire walks in. She takes like three steps inside the store and then sees me and just stops dead in her tracks. After a minute, she quickly walks up, grabs the first thing she sees and babbles some excuse. After paying, she practically runs out of the store." As Miranda finished, Lizzie and her were laughing.
"Oh, that's not even the best part," Miranda told her. "Larry told me, she comes in like at least three times a week with a different excuse and she does the Gordo flirt."
"Hey," Gordo snapped.
When Gordo tries to flirt with a girl, he gets nervous and starts rambling, sometimes shaking a little, and starts telling bad jokes. So whenever the girls saw him or someone else doing it, they called it the Gordo flirt.
"Ah, did I upset my little Gordo," Miranda said sarcastically to him. Gordo just glared at her, which caused the girls to laugh harder.
Lizzie tried to calm down, "Did you get the info from UCLA?"
Miranda and Lizzie had signed up to go to go to an open house at UCLA, one of the many colleges they were thinking of applying to, where they would get to spend a weekend, Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon, at the school shadowing a student. They, more so Miranda, had also forced Gordo to sign up too.
"Yea. It came while you were gone." Miranda got up and went over to her desk. Digging around for a moment she found a manila folder. "We're going the second weekend in September," Miranda read off of the paper.
"Coolie. I can't wait," Lizzie said as she walked over to look at the other stuff Miranda got and was pretty sure was waiting for her at home once her parents went through the mail.
"Oh yea. You two get to at least be together, I can't wait to see who I get stuck with," Gordo said as he laid back on Miranda's bed.
Miranda smirked at Lizzie and walked over to the bed. Sitting on the edge next to Gordo, she pouted a little and gently started to trace shapes on his chest with her finger. "You promised Gordo and I'll make it worth your time."
Gordo let out a frustrated growl and tossing his head back, he closed his eyes. "Fine," Gordo grumbled. Miranda snickered and leaned in to kiss him before walking back to Lizzie.
"You have him wrapped around your little finger don't you?" Lizzie joked.
Miranda shrugged. "I wouldn't say that, but I do know how to get what I want," she told her best friend with a smirk.
