Thanks to all who reviewed! I like getting your comments and suggestions!

Lizzie walked into the cafeteria, feeling exhausted. After finishing her letter the night before, she hadn't been able to fall asleep. She had been too busy thinking about Gordo. She found it strange that after all this time when she had thought she had liked Ethan; it had really been Gordo. Lizzie wasn't sure what to do or say. She hoped Miranda would respond to her letter quickly and have some advice in it.

"Hey, Lizzie! Come sit over here!" Gordo and Mindy called.

Lizzie ran over, relieved to see them. "Hey, you guys!" she said, as she slid into a seat next to Gordo.

"Yeah, so Mindy, you were saying?" Gordo said.

"Well, about Kate, I think she's a total ditz. Cheerleading is so preppy and demeaning to girls."

"Really? I figured you'd be a cheerleader, what with the fact that you're in so many other sports."

"No way! Cheerleading is so stupid! I think it's below me and every other girl on this planet."

'Wow,' Lizzie thought, 'she and Gordo have really gotten to know each other.'

Mindy was a pretty girl, with shoulder-length blond hair and blue- green eyes. You could tell that she was very popular at her school. Mindy was also very athletic, and the cabin hoped she could help them in any games or contests that summer.

Lizzie suddenly felt a chill come over her. What if Gordo fell for Mindy? Or what if Mindy fell for Gordo? They'd start going out, and then… 'STOP IT!' she mentally scolded herself.

"LIZZIE MCGUIRE, PLEASE COME TO THE FRONT OF THE BUILDING. YOUR PARENTS ARE ON THE PHONE."

Lizzie groaned, and she heard the whole camp begin to laugh at her.

"Lizzie, better go talk to Mommy!" Kate taunted.

"Yo, Lizzie! Tell Matt I say hi! I love that little guy!" Ethan said.

Lizzie ran and got to the phone. "Hello?"

"Lizzie! Oh thank god, I've been so worried! I heard about the bus, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, Mom. It was no big deal."

"I heard Gordo was a big hero! Is this true?"

"Yes, Mom. It honestly is no big deal! Can I go now?"

"Lizzie, what's wrong?"

"You embarrassed me in front of the whole camp, that's what!" That wasn't Lizzie's only concern. Right now Mindy and Gordo could be falling for each other, and she had to do everything in her power to prevent that. "Bye, Mom." Lizzie hung up, and ran away.

Two days later, the mail was delivered, and in it, a letter from Miranda.

"Wow, that was fast," Lizzie said, as she ripped the letter open.

Dear Lizzie,

Hi! Mexico is so hot! I had forgotten how hot it is here! Conchita is being a real witch, acting all prissy and stuff. She constantly reminds me that it's her party, and that I'm younger. Honestly, I get so sick of her sometimes! She even has a boyfriend, which really disgusts me. The worst part is, he's hot! If he was ugly, it'd be okay, but how does a witch like Conchita get a hot guy, and I have no one? Oh well, I guess some things I'll never know.

Camp sounds real exciting so far. Gordo's there, eh? Your summer should be far more exciting then mine. You like him? Or at least you think you do? Wow! Lizzie, you have to tell him, and then maybe you'll start going out! That would be so awesome!

Sorry you have to be in the same cabin with Kate. The other girls sound really nice though. Is she hogging Ethan? Wait, why'd I even ask? I bet they were making out on the bus to camp.

Well, that's all for now. Write back, Lizzie!

Your mejor amiga,

Miranda

P.S. Love the Spanish?

Lizzie sighed. Miranda had not given her the advice she needed right now. Lizzie couldn't tell Gordo, out of fear that he didn't like her back. Gordo couldn't like her, he probably liked Mindy. The way they had talked the other day, and Lizzie had seen them go for a walk together the night before. No, there was no way she could tell Gordo. No way at all.
