Changes, For Better or Worse?
A/N-So here it is my last chapter. It's sad, but I'm also happy because I finished my first Lizzie fanfic. I'm trying to write more and I am currently working on a Matt/Miranda fic set in the future, but I've been having writers block lately. I also have a few more ideas and I really really want to write a good Larry Tudgeman fic. If anyone has any ideas, please email me. Thanks and enjoy!
Chapter 16-Happily Ever After
Time had flown by. It was already winter and Miranda and Ethan had been seeing each other for two whole months and they still liked each other much to Miranda's amazement.
Things were good. Lizzie and her were better friends than ever and Gordo and her were keeping their promise to make time for each other.
A lot of the rest of the time she spent on homework and with Ethan. Who was she kidding, she wasn't one of those helpless girls who needed to spend all her time with her boyfriend, but they did see each other an awful lot. And when they weren't together they were on the phone.
And Lizzie and Gordo were still together too. Sometimes the four of them went on double dates or just hung together like now.
Lizzie and Miranda had wanted to go to the mall to look for dresses for an upcoming dance, but Gordo and Ethan had wanted to look at video games instead. It was fine with Miranda and Lizzie, it was so much easier to shop without the guys around and Gordo appreciated having another guy to talk to other than Lizzie's little brother Matt.
"Miranda", Ethan called. "Over here."
Miranda and Lizzie had just finished buying their dresses and were surprised to see their guys waiting outside the store, sprawled out on a bench, bags in tow. They giggled at the guys and the bags full of video games that they had obviously just purchased.
"You know", Lizzie pointed out. "You guys are such total hypocrites. You complain about us and shopping", she said as she motioned to her bag. "But you guys are seriously just as bad."
"How many games did you get Ethan?" Miranda asked innocently.
Ethan refused to look her in the eye. "One or two", he said guiltily.
She took the bag from him and peered inside. "It's funny how one or two looks and awful lot like four."
Gordo laughed. "He made me look good, I only bought two this time."
"And what about you guys?" Ethan asked. "I bet you bought more than dresses."
Miranda was caught. "Well. . .I, um. . .they had the coolest earrings and these really cute pajamas on sale."
Ethan looked at Gordo. "I thought so."
"Don't look at me", Gordo sighed and turned to Ethan. "You're new to the group. I've been stuck with these two all my life."
"And you survived?" Ethan questioned.
"So far", Gordo deadpanned.
Lizzie whacked Gordo in the gut with her shopping bag. "Hey", she complained. "We're not that bad."
Gordo grabbed Lizzie and pulled her closer to him. "No you're not. I was just kidding."
Ethan gave Miranda a little nod. "I guess you're not too bad yourself", he teased.
Miranda rolled her eyes. "Gee thanks Craft", she said leaning over to give him a quick peck on the lips. "Keep this up and those will be few and far between", she said giving him her best stern look, which was cut short by the sound of her rumbling stomach.
"Uh guys, can we hit the food court?" Miranda asked. "I'm starved."
"If there's one thing you can count on it's Miranda's stomach", Gordo joked.
Miranda pushed Gordo gently. "You should talk. You eat way more than me."
"I do not", Gordo retorted. "You pack it away like no other Sanchez."
"Well at least I don't eat peanut butter banana sandwiches for breakfast", Miranda countered.
"Will you guys cut it out already?" Lizzie admonished them like a mother talking to her two squabbling children. "No bickering. I'm hungry too. Let's go."
Lizzie and Gordo walked in front with Miranda and Ethan close behind. Both couples were hand in hand.
Miranda looked around happily at her friends and boyfriend. Things were different. Sure, the group was usually a foursome instead of a three now. It was good. They were maturing, learning and evolving. It was a slow process, but they were young.
Who knew what the future would bring exactly? Miranda sometimes thought Lizzie and Gordo would be together forever, but she wasn't so sure about her and Ethan. She liked him enough but Miranda wasn't about to commit herself to one guy anytime soon, she had a lot of guys to meet and date in her time. Ethan was her first real boyfriend and that was special, but he was also a friend. And if and when they broke up, they'd find a way to remain friends as hard as it might be.
But it was okay, because as corny as it was they all had each other and that's one thing Miranda was positive of in a world of uncertainty.
They each had a long road ahead of them, three and a half years of high school, college, careers, families, etc. They were still in the ninth grade after all, but no matter what happened they would find a way to get by.
They had each other's back and that was good enough for Miranda. She was finally glad to be home.
THE END
