It All Changes
I was still thinking about Chris. I couldn't help it though! Any girl who ever laid eyes on him couldn't help but dream about him! I guess I was just another victim to looks. He was just so cute though. His image reminded me of a jock, a pretty-boy, one of those guys who like romance and romantic movies just as much as a girl. And believe me, those kind of guys are rare. They think they have to be all tough. But not this guy. What am I saying? I haven't even really had a conversation with the guy! I know, he's turning into my 'little-schoolgirl-crush' just like Ethan did. I must be really shallow.
I suddenly shot my head up when I saw the teacher in front of my desk starring wide-eyed at me. I looked around my surroundings and saw everyone in the classroom trying to hold in their laughter. Then my eyes spotted Gordo and Miranda, who were looking dumbfounded at me. I gave a nervous laugh and smiled innocently at my teacher, who I didn't even know the name to.
She starred at me, eyes full of hatred. "Well well well, I guess you decided to get your head down from up in the clowds. Now that we have your attention, will it be to much to ask of you to properly introduce yourself to your classmates?"
What does this look like? Kindergarden? The last time I was asked to introduce myself to the class was in....well last year. But still, you'd think a person is more 'grown up' entering a whole different environment. I decided that if I said no, I'd probably right there make enimies with my teacher, if I hadn't already.
I slowly stood up and she went back to her desk. I began to speak as my eyes caught brown, green, hazel and even blue eyes. " H-hello, my names L-Lizzie McGuire and I-.." I didn't know what else to say so I just started mumbling off anything that came to mind. "I'm 15, have one sibling, two best friends, love to shop, and-"
"Ok Ms.McGuire, I believe it's time to move on to the next person" My teacher said while pulling out a piece of paper.
==============================================
Phew, I was so glad to get out of that first class! Already the first day and I think I made mortal enimies with a teacher, yes a teacher! Who's name I still didn't even know! The last person I'd think to make enimies with. I can still picture her in front of my desk glaring at me.
"Lizzie, wait up chica!" The sound of Miranda's shouting voice made me stop and turn around. She looked like she had ran a whole marathon, she was breathing rapidly.
"Hey 'Randa, what's up? You look like you-"
"Nevermind that! I want details! There must have been a reason why you were 'daydreaming' and not notice Ms.Fields standing right in front of you!" She squealed. Her eyes were full of suspense and I could tell she was dying of curiousity. 'Oh so that's what her name was! Ms.Feilds!' I quickly pulled her inside the bathroom. As soon as we were behind the door, I started twirling around saying a whole bunch of "Oh-my-God-I-met-a-guy!!"s.
When I finally came back to reality and stood still, she asked who was the guy so I told her the name, and ofcourse how cute he was! She said she wanted to meet this 'hottie', so I told her that we could drop by my locker, sense his was right next to mine. She gasped, thinking I was lying but I laughed and shined it on as we took one final 'makeup check' and walked out of the bathroom.
I saw him from a distance barely opening his locker so I rushed Miranda over near him. At first I pretended I didn't see him but when he saw me I just had to say hello.
"Hey Lizzie, it's very nice to see you, and who's this?" He asked while looking towards Miranda.
Now lets keep your focus here Chris, you were looking at 'me' not her...
Miranda giggled."I'm Miranda!"
Could she say it any louder?
"Well Lizzie what class do you have next?" He asked while pulling out a book. I glanced at my shedule and started to speak but was interrupted.
"Hey Lizzie! Um I found out you, Miranda, I and Larry all had the same class next so I thought maybe we could walk..together?" I turned around and saw Gordo there looking at me for an answer. I started to speak again but this time Larry got the win.
"Yeah and while they're walking together maybe you and I would walk t-together?" He said directing it at Miranda.
I felt sorry for Miranda, I could tell inside she was feeling grossed out even though on the outside she was faking a smile. Well sense there was heavy silence I finally decided to speak.
However nothing came out. "Uh-I-Um" I stuttered, while finding a slight interest with my hands.
"I didn't know you had a boyfriend Lizzie, well-"
I froze right there when I heard Chris say those words. Gordo was NOT my boyfriend, although he would make a great boyfriend, but I repeat GORDO is not my BOYFRIEND! I looked at Gordo, Miranda, stole a quick glance at the floor and then at Chris.
"He's not my boyfriend!"
"He's not Lizzie's boyfriend"
"He's not her boyfriend!"
"I'm not her boyfriend!"
Me, Miranda, Larry and Gordo shouted all at the same time. Wow, I wonder if he got it by now?
Chris blushed, but nobody really noticed because everybody else was.
"Oh um, about what class I have next, I have history" I stated.
Chris looked relieved and gave a nourishing look. "So do I!" He exclaimed.
My heart made a big thump and I soon put on a smile. "That's so cool!" I said, looking around at everybody, hoping somebody would agree. When nobody did, I nudged Miranda.
"Yeah!" She protested.
Chris stood there for a second, while I stood there looking at him, watching his crysal deep blue eyes move about, and out of the corner of my eye I saw Larry starring at Miranda, and Miranda, who still hadn't gave Larry an answer, looking at the ground. She wasn't the only one though looking at the ground. The ground was also greeted by Gordo's eyes.
Chris looked up at me. "So could I walk you to your class Lizzie?"
My mind started racing and my stomach had found itself it many, tight knots, whirling around in circles.
I just spat out an answer. "Sure!"
At that point I saw Gordo's head fly up and look at me. Oh yeah, I'd forgotten he had asked to walk with me. Chris was done getting his books out and by this time so was I, so we said our goodbye's and lept off walking..together..eek!
The last thing I remember seeing when I looked back at the three was, strangly Larry and Miranda walked together and Gordo..walking all by his lonesome self, he looked like something was troubling him, like he was going to burst out crying at any point.
