Rating: PG-13 right now... will
get R later on.
Feedback: Is always good...
Summary: Gordo re-tells a story
of one particular summer that changed his life forever.
Setting: 2 years in the future...
Lizzie, Miranda, and Gordo are all 15.
Note: I know this is totally something
that would NEVER happen on the show. This story is purely fiction, and
I know it would never happen, but fanfic is fanfic... so who cares right?
How cliché is love?
I mean everybody falls in love at
one time or another, so why does everybody act love is like this huge surprise?
Because in reality, love isn't a surprise or some big shock... it's just
this big cliché. But what is even more cliché then falling
in love... is falling in love with one of your two best friends,
who just happen to be both female.
I don't think I properly introduced
myself... how rude of me, where are my manners? My name is David Gordon,
but please don't ever call me that, I prefer the nickname Gordo, it's unlike
any other name and plus it's better then David Gordon... so Gordo it is.
I'm 15, a junior in high school, which sucks by the way... high school
is really a waste of my time, because high school isn't about education
or whatnot, it's all about this big popularity contest... okay now that
I have gotten that off my chest I can continue with the introduction, like
I said I'm 15 and a junior in high school, and as if being as Kate Sanders
and her little rat pack call me "The King Of The Weirdos" isn't bad enough,
my two best friends, well only friends, are girls. I mean it can't really
get worse then that, except for the fact that these two girls, my
best friends, who just happen to both be REALLY cute, have known me since
I was a little baby and have seen me at my dorkiest moments... so trying
to woo either of them is kind of impossible.
Let me introduce the two girls that
make my life so damn annoying but fun at the same time:
PROFILE # 1-
Name: Lizzie McGuire
Age: 15
Hair: Blonde
Eyes: Blue
Personality: Optimistic, a little
childish at times, and has the tendency to be annoying.
Personal notes: Even though Lizzie
can tend to be annoying because of her childish antics and make believe
world, she has the bluest eyes.... that seem to reach into the depths of
my soul, even though she doesn't know that... Elizabeth "Lizzie" McGuire,
also tends to be blind as a bat when it comes to certain things.
PROFILE # 2 -
Name: Miranda Sanchez
Age: 15
Hair: Black but tends to be multicolored
Eyes: Brown
Personality: Cynical, over sarcastic
at times, and very alternative.
Personal notes: Miranda's alternative
attitude in life makes her stand out from everybody else in the crowd;
Miranda's cynical attitude towards high school and *cough cough* Kate Sanders,
has made Miranda into my sidekick in crime.
So now you know about Miranda and
Lizzie, when we were in the 7th grade we were the three musketeers, it
was all for one and one for all, nothing could tear us apart... but when
we entered 8th grade I was torn between my two best friends. See Lizzie
and Miranda both fell for this new popular foreign student, and when neither
one of them would back down... Lizzie and Miranda went their separate ways,
but unfortunately they both wanted me to go with them. So I split my time
into hanging out with Miranda for half of the week and Lizzie the next,
yeah it got complicated but at least I still had both of them and I got
the best of two worlds.
Miranda: She brought the fun loving,
wild side, out of me... we would also spend countless hours talking about
how much we hated the politics of high school and we would voice our disgust
and sympathy for Kate Sanders. When it came down to streaking hair or doing
something totally crazy, Miranda was there to do it with me.
Lizzie: She brought out the more
calm side of me. Things weren't as crazy with Lizzie as they were with
Miranda, but with Lizzie we could just sit there and look at each other,
our eyes drilling into one anothers, and we could have a conversation without
saying one single word. Tye-dying her sheets, or making ice cream sundaes,
or having pillow fights were me and Lizzie's favorite pasttime.
With Miranda it was action and adventure
all the time and with Lizzie it was calm but in-depth at the same time.
Like I said above, I was getting the best of both worlds and it was great,
but soon it got too complicated. I mean man, one day I was all crazy and
wacky, and then the next I had to be mister cool and collected, I felt
like I had a split personality and it was driving me insane. So I finally
got frick and frack back together, sure it wasn't the same but at least
I wasn't driving myself insane trying to be the best friend for both of
them.
But getting Miranda and Lizzie back
together was just the beginning of my problems...
Okay cue in the dark scary music...
*dunnn dunnn dunnn*, okay I know I'm a smart ass, but so what... this is
my story. So finally my split personality disappeared and I was just Gordo
again.
Yep I was Gordo... King of the weirdos...
best friend... just one of the girls...
Just one of the girls... I
was just one of the girls, ugh.... before it hadn't really bothered me,
but here is the interesting part of this little dramatic story... my hormones
started to take over my body. Hormones suck, they really do. They were
always making me gawk at girls like some hormone crazed drooling dumb jock
that only had one thing on my mind... I even caught myself looking at Kate
Sanders... yuck I know. I was this big mess, I wanted to experience girls...
I wanted to kiss someone, unfortunately I wasn't the kissable kind of guy,
I wouldn't blame a girl for not wanting to kiss me. And if that wasn't
bad enough... I was starting to see Lizzie McGuire in a totally different
light.
Lizzie started wearing her hair up
and wearing sleeveless shirts, so in Lit. I always would have to see the
exposed skin of Lizzie, since I sat behind her in class. Lizzie started
dressing differently, not slutty or anything, just different. More tanktops
and shorts, Lizzie McGuire was driving me insane!
See a pattern here? I keep going
insane... I am probably going to grow up to be in the loony bin or something...
Yeah that would make my parents happy, they could say:
"Yes, our one and only son David
Gordon, is a nut job! But we still love him, even though he is crazy..."
I should have really distanced myself
from Lizzie and perhaps Miranda, but me being the loyal friend, I continued
to be one of the girls... Me, Lizzie and Miranda would hang out every day,
just sharing secrets, laughing over the silly stuff, and that sort of thing...
just like always. But things weren't the same, I was in love with Lizzie
McGuire, Miranda was dating this weird skateboard freak, and Lizzie, well
Lizzie was looking at me weird.
It was weird, Lizzie kept looking
at me sometimes in class or when we were alone in her bedroom, her head
would always be tilted to the side, and she had this deep look in her blue
eyes, so I finally I just asked.
"What's up McGuire?"
I hardly called Lizzie by her first
name, she would call me Gordo, but I preferred calling her "McGuire". I
remembered how Lizzie had been quiet for a long time, and then she had
leaned over and kissed me on the lips.
I had been shocked out of my mind!
Lizzie McGuire, my best friend of 15 years was kissing me, a few seconds
we pulled apart and Lizzie smiled, giggling.
"That answers my question..."
I had stared at Lizzie, like she
had grown another head or something, who knows? Maybe she did.
"What question?"
Lizzie smiled, she lowered her blue
eyes to her math book, she was quiet for a LONG time, and then she finally
looked up, and smiled at me.
"That you are so not one of
the girls!"
What in the world was going on in
Lizzie's head? First she started dressing like Kate and then she was kissing
me, all I could think was that... maybe it was hormones. Maybe she was
going through what I was...
"I'm not?"
Lizzie shook her head quickly.
"Quite the opposite Gordo..."
She moistened her lips and went back
down to her book.
Oh no, I could tell right there and
then... that this summer was definitely going to be crazy...
