Chapter 6: Fame!
Okay, today's the day!! I am totally nervous and totally excited. But since I'm so nervous, I haven't eaten anything all day. I wonder if it's possible to puke with only air in your stomach…
Hold that thought…

Yeah, it's possible. So now I have to brush my teeth again. Thank God for mouthwash.
Why am I so nervous? I live for this kind of stuff!! Okay, Miranda, calm down, breathe, breathe, WHY AREN"T YOU BREATHING!!!???? Okay, okay, I'll be fine, I have memorized my dance steps, I have learned my song, and everything will be FINE!!
Wait a minute, someone's at the door; I guess I'd better answer it.
So hands shaking, I opened the door to reveal Lizzie and Gordo.
"Break a leg, Miranda!!" said Gordo, giving me a hug. Ah, nice hug. I wouldn't mind staying like this for a few minutes; or hours…
"Gordo!!" exclaimed Lizzie, "Don't wish for her to break a leg, that's awful!!!"
"Lizzie, that's not… never mind," said Gordo. Turning back to me he smiled shyly, "I know you'll do great, Miranda."
Look at me; way up high, I'm FLYING!!! Ah…sweet Gordo. I can do this!! I'll whip everyone's butt!!
Lizzie then came up to me.
"Miranda," she said, "I am so excited that you have this opportunity. You're going to do a great job, and just think; I'll be able to say I know a celebrity!"
I blushed. It's times like this that I really love my friends.
"Well," began Lizzie, "That's all we wanted to say; we know you're busy, so good luck, and call me tonight with the details!"
Lizzie turned and began walking down my front walk while Gordo stood there.
"Yeah, Gordo?" I asked, "What's up?"
Gordo bit his bottom lip. "I just…good luck, Miranda."
And then he briefly kissed me on the lips.
I love show biz.
