8. MIRANDA
It's 3 months later now, and things still aren't good, or even civil between Lizzie and me. I guess that I hurt Lizzie more then I realized. Gordo, well, Gordo is distant from both of us now. He's actually hanging out with the druggies now. How does that work? I never would have imagined him using drugs and smoking. And Lizzie is going out with Brian still. I'm so jealous every time I see them together. Walking down the hall, I see them between almost every class. Brian smiles at me, maybe he has forgiven me, since I got him and Lizzie together, inadvertently.
"Miranda?" I turn around, because it sounds like Lizzie speaking.
"Li..Li..Lizzie!?" I stutter.
"Well, I just wanted to thank you for getting me and Brian together. He's the best thing that's happened to me. I mean, you didn't matter to me at all. But, Brian is a different story. I think I'll go talk to Kate now, she's so much better then you." Lizzie smiled sweetly and walked away. All I could think of was that her "insult" was so lame, but it got me infuriated all the same. I looked back up at her, and she was walking with Brian down the hallway. They had become so close, as close as Lizzie and I had been. I took my science book out of my locker, sighing heavily.
"Miranda?" I turned around again.
"WHAT do you WANT?" I had figured it was Brian, but it was Gordo. "Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry Gordo!"
"You should be. But…ummm…"
"What? I didn't mean it. I thought you were Brian." Gordo had been avoiding me for the past 3 months. In the beginning, I had tried calling him every night, but I soon gave up after his mom told me that he couldn't talk because he was grounded for doing drugs. I thought she was kidding, but I later found out it was true. I looked at him closer, and saw that his eyes were bloodshot. "Gordo! What's wrong with you? You're killing yourself!" Gordo looked at me blankly.
"I need money."
I took out my purse. "How much? $1 for the vending machine?"
"No, more like $150. I gotta get more pot. I'm dying without it." I couldn't believe this was Gordo talking. Even Dwarvlord hadn't affected him this much!
"Gordo, I'm not giving you money for drugs. I never wanted this to happen. And, I don't want to help your 'habit.' Get help!" By this point I was shaking him by the shoulders, trying to wake him up from his daze.
"Ok. Whatever." He walked off, back to his new "friends." I shook my head, trying not to cry. Biting my lip, I walked off to science, trying not to break down in the middle of the hallway, and trying to gain enough courage to talk to Lizzie. I needed her help to bring Gordo back.
Later that Night
Mir226: Lizzie? I need your help.
sHoPpErLiZ225: What do you want.
Mir226: Have you noticed anything different about Gordo?
THE END
A/N: haha that was lame. I had a whole story line planned out for this chapter but then my mom threw it out. :-P NOT GOOD so this is my replacement. lol. The next chapter (which I PROMISE will be up within a week) is gonna be an alternate ending, a HAPPY one. Please review!
