I, David Gordon

DISCLAIMER- I don't own diddly-squat... *snort* This is my first LM fic, so don't poke too much fun...

A/N- flames will be used to roast my marshmellows for the s'mores I'm having later! :) *looks at notebook she uses to write everything down in* ew... puke! Oh, and if I don't get 'Ethan Speech' completely right, I'm sorry, I'm a nerd, getovahyaself!

"Lizzie! You can do this!" Miranda Sanchez said exasperatedly to her best friend, compadre, and right hand girl.

"But remember LAST time I asked Ethan to the Sadie Hawkins dance and he said no, that he just wanted to be friends, then on that night, I ended up dancing with GORDO!" Elizabeth 'Lizzie' McGuire complained as she was about to ask the man of her dreams to be her boyfriend.

"I take that as an insult!" David 'Gordo' Gordon said, looking the tiniest bit hurt, but Lizzie didn't seem to notice. She turned to Miranda.

"How's my hair?" She pushed the blonde locks out of her eyes, and Miranda put a thumbs up. Lizzie smiled and turned to walk over to Ethan Craft.

"Hey Ethan," She smiled and flicked her hair behind her shoulder.

"Lizzie Lizzie Lizzie! How glad I am to see you!" He said with that oh-so-sexy accent he had.

"Yeah, you see, I was wondering, do you happen to... uh... erm... haveagirlfriend?"

"Wha?"

"Do you have a girlfriend?"

"Nope, so far I've flown solo..." He put a hand through his oh-so-gorgeous hair, and looked distractedly up at the clowds.

"Oh, then, maybe, would, possibly, would you like to have ME as your girlfriend?" Lizzie sputtered out, not so sure if those were the right words to use or not.

"You know," Ethan smiled, "I HAVE been thinking alot about you lately, and though I know I said I think of you more as a friend, I can't help but think you're very pretty, and you've got cute hair..."

Lizzie crossed her fingers behind her back, "Is that a yes?"

"Well, yeah. I think you'd make a way cool girlfriend."

Lizzie smiled, "So, do you wanna, like hold hands and walk to class together and do all that stuff that couples do?" Ethan smiled and took her hand. It gave her kind of a warm feeling inside, but she couldn't help thinking, 'But he said no just a few weeks ago... I wonder what changed his mind...' and they walked to science class.

{about a month later}

Miranda sat at the back of the classroom, WITHOUT her best mate, Lizzie... It was an odd feeling. Gordo always sat near the front, which was predictable, as he was one of the smartest people in the whole eighth grade.

The teacher was droning on something about how tornadoes form, which didn't particularly interest Miranda, she took out a peice of paper to write a note to Lizzie, but realized that she was out of reach. She took a gander at Ethan, who looked back and smiled... Miranda couldn't help but melt, she knew she shouldn't, because he was her best friend's boyfriend... but he seemed so perfect for herself... So...simple, which made her more comfortable than when she was talking with Gordo, who always seemed to find a way to make her feel inferiour.

She almost slapped herself for thinking this, but she almost got to praying that Ethan and Lizzie would break up... They didn't seem right for eachother, but they seemed to get along, like friends, but not as a couple.

a/n- yeah, there's more coming, I'm just too lazy... and YES, it has more to do with Gordo, who is by far the coolest character *wink* Yeah, I suck. Reveiws!
