The Impossible Possible

Gordo's POV
I was supposed to be meeting my two best friends in the world at the mini-golf course, but I was at home instead. I didn't even call them to tell them why I wasn't coming. This really wasn't me.
I couldn't believe I was actually doing this, calling up Ethan Craft and asking for a favor. If I were going to go back in the past and telling myself I'd be doing this, I'd be in the crazy house.
"Hi, Ethan, it's me Gordo. I have a serious favor to ask you."
"Yo, Gordo. What's Crackalackin'?"
"Can you help me become... um... uh... cool?"
~*~
Normal POV
Lizzie and Miranda walked through the student filled hall and tried to make their way to there lockers, but everybody was clogging the way. Today would had been a typical day. Just a normal, typical day. Until they reached their lockers and saw Gordo, there very best friend.
Lizzie and Miranda had their mouths dropped to the ground and eyes as wide as a baseball.
Gordo was leaning on his locker, nodding at the girls who were blushing madly and was next to Ethan Craft, his gang, and the new guy named Andy, who was really cute and cool, so he was "worthy" to hang around with them. Gordo wasn't wearing his usual khakis and short sleeved polo shirt thingy, but instead was wearing baggy jeans, like Ethan's, a sweater (from the GAP!), and his hair was gelled.
Lizzie and Miranda overheard two girls from their social studies class discussing the new Gordo. "I never knew he could be so hot!" exclaimed one of them.
Miranda almost gagged and Lizzie was disappointed. Now she'd never ever get a chance with Gordo, the blind best friend who can't see what was in front of him.
"He's is, like, hotter than hot. He's almost as hot as, like, Ethan Craft," said the other.
Lizzie and Miranda pushed their way to their friend, and when Gordo had notice them coming his way, Kate Sanders stood in front of him. "Hi, Gordo."
"Uh, hi, Kate." Gordo slid to the side to get to Lizzie and Miranda, but Kate followed him.
"Aren't you going to ask me if you can walk me to my next class?"
He turned around. "Why would I do a stupid thing like that?" He left the insulted Kate and smiled at Lizzie and Miranda. "Hey guys."
Lizzie was bewildered. "What did you do to the David Gordon that we knew as Gordo?"
"Please don't say my real name in public." But it was too late, Ethan had taken his real name as his new "cool" name and everybody started calling him David. "Thanks a lot."
"But, why are you dressed so much like... Ethan?"
Before he could answer, the bell rang and everyone was surrounding him, that Gordo was stuck in the tidal wave heading to class. He was trying to get back to Lizzie and Miranda, but he saw it was useless.
With nothing else to do, Lizzie and Miranda reluctantly followed.

Few Days Later...
Lizzie's POV
He's popular now. I can't believe it.
It's not fair. I noticed him way before these swooning girls, but he had no idea. They were much more prettier, and I know Gordo would pick them before he'd think of me. It's not fair!
He sat with Ethan indoors and I sat with Miranda, both alone outside because everyone else was inside, hoping Gordo would talk to them.
I turned to Miranda, "How did he become so popular?"
She shrugged. She must be wondering the same question too. "But isn't Gordo the guy who said that popularity doesn't really matter? Then why does he look so happy being in there?"
I shrugged, miserably poking at the grapes on my tray. It just passed a few days without him and I already miss our Gordo.
Both of us looked at the double doors to see Gordo and Ethan leading a pack of people outside and toward us. Gordo waved. "Hi guys." He leaned in and whispered to us. "I'm sorry I have all these people with me."
But we didn't smile back. We were angry. How can he dump us for all of these fakes? This really reminded me when that stupid director guy came to our school and began filming Gordo's "angsty" everyday life. Ugh.
"Come on, guys. Don't get mad at me."
"Did you hear anything, Lizzie? It almost sounded like Gordo was talking to us," Miranda said.
"Yeah, but remember? Gordo's long gone. David took over." Lizzie looked at me and said as if she just saw me there, "Oh, hi, David, we didn't see you there."
"Look, Lizzie, Miranda, I'm sorry I wasn't with you two for the past few days. I was busy."
Busy my butt, David Gordon. "Busy with your new friends."
"Lizzie, you've got to understand-"
"Understand what, Gordo? How... Why... UGH! Never mind, I don't even know why I'm speaking to you, Gordo. Wait, your not our Gordo, you're their David." Angrily, stood up and flung my bag over her shoulders, hoping it hit him in the face. "C'mon, Mirand-"
But she wasn't listening. While Gordo (David, I should say) and I were talking, she engaged herself in a conversation with the new guy, Andy.
I flung my arms up and groaned. "What happened to my friends!" And I left to go back to my locker.

Gordo's POV
Come on, Lizzie, pick up... I knew this was all a bad idea to ask Ethan to help me. What good was it to become popular to get a girl to notice you? She completely despises me now.
"Hello?" asked Lizzie, who sounded as if she'd been crying.
"Hi, Lizzie, it's me, Gordo. I-"
"Shouldn't you be hanging out with your new friends?"
"Listen, Liz, I'm sorry I haven't spent any time with you and Miranda and I want to make up for it."
I know right now she had her arms crossed. "Like what?"
"Tonight, we go to the movies and watch... any movie you and Miranda want to watch."
"Hmm... Let me ask Miranda." After a few seconds, I heard Miranda in the background laugh sarcastically. "Miranda and I decided... No, we won't go."
Before I could say anything, she hung up on me. This was my punishment for not being with them for the past week and the Saturday I stood them up at the mini-golf course. This bites.
~*~
Normal POV
She hung up on him. Putting the phone on the receiver, Lizzie turned to Miranda and stifled a cry. "I want Gordo back..."
Miranda stood up and held the girl in her caring arms and patted her head. "I do too, Lizzie. I do too."
"I really like him, Miranda, and now all these girl are falling for him and now chances of us being together is zero."
It wasn't like Miranda hadn't thought of her best friends being a couple, but that kind of shocked her. What would happen if they did get together? Would they forget all about her? 'First off, Gordo isn't our friend right now, and second, I should be worrying about heart-broken Lizzie and try to get that David back to that ol' Gordo.'
