A/N: I don't own Lizzie Mcguire or any featured characters. I hope you like this story! Flames are excepted, because I mean, how am I gonna stop you from doing it anyway?? Okay, here it is.

(Lizzie's POV)



I woke up that morning without a care in the world. The Spring dance was coming up and I was determined to get a decent date. Oh, someone like Ethan Craft. Now, I knew Kate and Claire would be swarming over him, along with everyone else, so I had to stick out. But, I made a pact with Gordo that if we both couldn't get dates, we'd be eachother's dates. Kinda childish, I know, but hey, we were best friends. Now Miranda on the other hand, could get a date easily. Over the years, she had been known as a wild child party animal type. Don't get me wrong, she knew when she was going too far. She never drank or anything. She just loved to dance. We were freshmen in high school and she was on the dance squad, part of the quiz bowl team (along with me, gordo, and Larry) and was secratary of the student council. She was amazing. On the other hand, I was the exact opposite. Thats's what made us so close. Gordo was just, well Gordo. He was still disgusted with the popularity of Ethan. But had grown better looking along the years. He actually bothered to brush his hair out more than middle school. He was captain of quiz bowl, was on the soccer team(who knew?) and was President of the student council. I was Quiz bowl team member, on the dance squad, and vice president of student council. We were all well known, well liked, and kinda sorta popular. Gordo had a girlfriend for two months named Eva, but he broke up with her when she moved away. You know long-distance relationships? He was heart broken. He really loved her. I was dating a guy named Josh. I dumped him when I caught him cheating on me with Sara Anderson. How I despised that girl. She was a Kate clone. Cheerleader and all. Miranda was dating Larry Tudgeman. He had grown handsome over the years and Miranda fell for him. He had liked her since the 7th grade after I "Dumped" him. He was actually a great guy I came to find out. I mean behind that old disgusting 3rd grade shirt he wore every day. He actually cares about his hygene! He threw his old shirts away and bought new clothes. Now Ethan. Ethan Craft. Captain of the football and basketball team and has great hair. The only problem is he is as dumb as a rock. I don't like him as much as middle school, but he is still number one on my list. Now, what should I wear? I have to look PERFECT. When I came down for breakfast, I didn't have pancakes, for the fear of dripping syrup on my perfect outfit. When my mom asked me why, I told her I was on a diet. She gave me the "you perfect the way you are speech" and I was off. I avoided Matt, who wasn't as bratty but still pulled the accasional prank on me. He actually was getting mature and good looking. As a 7th grader, he would have his first real dance. We were actually becoming pretty good friends. I also had a hunch that he and Melina were made for eachother, just like me and Ethan Craft. Okay, I know, it's so middle school but I am just a freshman. I'm just getting out of the awkward phases of junior high.

As I got to school, I instantly spotted Miranda. She looked awesome. I'm guessing she had the same idea I had. We met up and passed the princess posse.(kate claire and everyone) Then we passed Ethan. He said hi to us. I asked him if he had a date to the dance and he said all that crap about flying solo like he did in middle school. We then passed Mr. Glimmerfloe himself, Larry. Miranda gave him a quick peck on the cheek and they left me standing. Hey, it's in the name of love right? I waited stupidly alone until someone tapped me on the shoulder. It was Gordo who was looking quite good that day. He was smiling brightly and I asked him why. Then he said it. He said that his old girlfriend Eva was back and he couldn't go to the dance with me. I said it was fine, even though I was ripping in shreds of the thought of going to the dance alone. I decided to go for the kill. I was going to ask Ethan. I waltzed right up to him and asked. He said Kate already asked him and he was sorry. Smack! Both of my potential dates were taken. Great Mcguire. Now what??
