And Then There Were Two...

Thank you everyone for your moral support for chapter four! Thanks especially to Xing@fanfiction.net. Xing- You said it was exactly like the episode. That's good, right? Also, how did you review more than once on the same chapter and still be signed in?

Also, this is the last chapter guys. Unless you all want a sequel, which I can tell you right now will have lots of fluff! I'M GONNA MISS YOU GUYS! *bursts into tears*

Disclaimer- If I owned Lizzie McGuire, Gordo would have enlightened Lizzie on his feelings a long time ago, wrote something sweeter in her year book, and they would be going out! Also, have you all seen the Lizzie McGuire Movie trailer? Um, excuse me, but there is no Gordo/Lizzie romance going on, at least not from what I saw! As far as I am concerned, it had better have some or my opinion of the movie will be very low. Oh look, I'm rambling! Ramble ramble ramble. Onto the fic!

No one screamed, and it was hard to tell if anyone would really miss Larry. Well, besides Lizzie, and she would only miss him a little. After all, he was a good date!

The group turned to spilt up again, but a shelf of books came flying down. They landed right on top of Kate. She screamed as they hit her. She fell to the floor, dead.

"YES!" Miranda screamed, punching the air.

"Miranda!" Lizzie shrieked.

Gordo sighed. That was one of the things he loved about Lizzie, she always cared about others.

"What?" Miranda asked. "Come on Lizzie, you hated her too!"

Lizzie just looked at her. "She used to be our friend!"

"Used to being the operative words." Lizzie hit Miranda on the arm playfully, but shakily.

"Miranda, we could be next!"

"I know..." she trailed off.

The group (now four) walked around a book shelf so they weren't any where near the dead bodies of Kate and Larry.

"Okay, so what are we going to do? We're locked in a school with a killer and it's just us four. Which makes me very suspicious." Miranda said. "And I don't know about this Jennifer girl. I mean, what do we know about her?"

"Personally, I'm shocked that you can be so calm about this whole matter! We're all going to die!" Lizzie squealed.

"And I am not the killer! You all just signed my death warrent! People we suspect die!" Jennifer screeched.

"Yeah, well, we don't know you." Miranda replied.

"Miranda!" Lizzie shrieked for the second time.

"What?" Miranda asked again.

"She's right you know!"

"Yeah, well..."

"What do you think Gordo?" Lizzie asked, turning to him. The boy looked down.

"I-"

He broke off as all the lights shut down. When they came back on, Miranda was no where to be found and Jennifer lay on the ground, books piled around her. Gordo and Lizzie faced each other and a black cloaked figure with a white mask stood beside them.

Lizzie and Gordo turned to face the figure, shaking slightly. The figure grabbed Lizzie's and Gordo's hands. It placed them together.

Gordo squeezed Lizzie's and gently. He reached up and pulled the mask off of the figure.

It was Miranda.

"Mir-Miranda? W-why?" Lizzie stuttered.

"Because you belong together. You are both in love." Miranda responded, slowly removing her hand from on top of Gordo's and Lizzie's. "You need to be together." she repeated.

"But, why? Kate, Larry, Danny! We didn't even get to know Jennifer!"

Miranda opened her mouth to answer, but didn't say anything.

Miranda awoke with a start. She looked around. She was in detention. Kate was next to Ethan, polishing her nails. Gordo was working on his English homework. Lizzie was sneaking a glance at Gordo every so often. Larry was staring into space. Danny was rapping his pencil on his desk. Mr. Digg sat at the front of the class, his scissors completely visible on the edge of his desk.

"I'm the killer." Miranda whispered to herself. Unfortunatly, Mr. Digg heard her, but not exactly what she said.

"Miss Sanchez, no talking!" he scolded.

"Erm, Mr. Digg? Can I say something?" Miranda asked.

"You mean to the class?" Miranda nodded. "I suppose."

Miranda stood up and made her way to the front of the room. "Guys, this was all my fault." Everyone looked up. "I shouldn't have thrown the notebook. But Gordo, Lizzie, you guys need to stop pretending. You both are in love with each other and should be together."

No one made a sound. Everyone was speechless, especially Gordo and Lizzie.

"Mr. Digg, this is my fault. Everyone should be able to leave."

"Great!" Kate said, standing up. "See ya!" She walked out of the class room.

Danny, Larry, and Ethan all nodded in agreement, stood up and left. Gordo and Lizzie sat right where they were.

"Miranda-" Lizzie and Gordo began at the same time.

"You go first." Gordo told Lizzie. She smiled at him and he beamed.

"Miranda, what was that all about?" Lizzie asked.

"Um..." Miranda began. "You're not mad are you?"

"No! Well, actually-Gordo-" Miranda cut her off.

"See now, that's nice and all, but you need to have a nice little chat with Gordo. Tell me how it works out. You can leave. In fact, why don't you have that little talk now? Not here of course." Miranda said.

"O-kay..." Lizzie replied. "Gordo?"

"Uh, yeah. Let me get my things." Gordo picked up his book bag and slung it over his shoulder. He put the pencil behind his ear and folded up the English paper before sticking it in his pocket.

Lizzie and Gordo turned to leave, but Gordo turned around to say something to Miranda. "Thanks." he mouthed and then left with Lizzie, smiling broadly.

Miranda sat down heavily at a desk in the front row. "How long until detention is over?" she asked, leaning on her elbow.

"Miranda," Mr. Digg began. "That was a very big thing you did. You're free to go."

"Th-thank you Mr. Digg. Goodbye." Miranda gathered her things and stood up. She left the class room and headed home.

Horrendously short, I know. Deal. Another chapter will be up shortly.

Be kind, leave a review. Tell me if I have talent or if I need to get a life.
