Chapter 15: How Sweet!

Monday 9:34 AM

Miranda POV

The parents let me check up on them I wondered what they were doing. Did they need more time alone, or was it time for them to come back home?

I docked my rowboat carefully and searched around.

I saw a tent that was empty. I saw a burnt out campfire. Where were they? I saw Gordo's camera lying on the floor. I felt curious and picked it up. I started to walk into the forest.

I heard a soft murmuring sound. I followed it to a waterfall. At first I didn't notice, but then I did a double take.

Lizzie and Gordo were kissing like crazy under the waterfall.

Oh, how sweet!

I smiled mischievously and hid behind a tree. I turned off the camera and aimed it toward them. I zoomed in and took shots from different angles.

This was going to be good.

Lizzie POV

I heard a rustling noise. It was too big to be a squirrel. I pulled back from Gordo, even though I didn't want to.

"Did you hear that?" I asked.

He looked upset that I had stopped, but he answered. "Yeah. What was it?"

"I don't know." I gave him a kiss on the cheek and swam back to where the grass and dirt was.

"Lizzie, wait!" He called after me.

Then Miranda stepped out from behind a tree with Gordo's video camera.

Animated Lizzie: Miranda!

"Oh, my gosh!" I exclaimed, Gordo coming up behind me. "You little creep!"

She shrugged and smiled weakly.

"Miranda! How could you?" Gordo said.

"Sorry, it was funny! And happy birthday, Lizzie."

"See, she remembered." I elbowed Gordo playfully.

"I said I was sorry!"

I rolled my eyes. "I know."

"Your boyfriend forgot your birthday!" She exclaimed.

"He's-"

I was going to say, 'he's not my boyfriend', but I stopped, because maybe he was.

"Yes, my boyfriend forgot my birthday. You got a problem with it?" I answered.

Gordo's eyes lit up.

Gordo POV

She had just called me her boyfriend! This was amazing. All in one day, we did a lot. I had forgotten Lizzie's birthday. Then we got into a fight. Then Lizzie had a nightmare. Then we apologized. Then we kissed. Then we met Miranda. And then Lizzie had called me her boyfriend!

Wow.

I put my arm around her waist. "So, I'm ready to go home now." I said.

"Me too." Lizzie said. "I hate to say it, but I sort of miss fighting with Matt. Fighting with Gordo was so much worse."

"You guys fought?" Miranda asked, looking surprised.

"Oh, did we ever. We'll explain later." I started walking back to the tent.

We packed all of our things, and then got into the big rowboat. It was so big that it held all of our things at once. Miranda offered to row and said she needed no help.

"It was all a setup, wasn't it?" I asked.

"I-well... yeah, it kind of was."

"Miranda!" Lizzie exclaimed. "You knew?"

"Yeah." She said so softly that I could barely hear her. "Kind of."

I rolled my eyes.

"So, you guys fought?" She asked.

Lizzie and I exchanged looks.

"Kind of." We chorused.

"See, I was going to go look for you, and then Lizzie said..." I told the entire story.

"Whoa." She said when I was finished. "I didn't mean for it to get so serious."

"You know, I'm sorta glad it did." Lizzie said.

We kissed again.

"You guys, could you please keep the kisses to a minimum? It's really annoying."

I pulled away. "Sorry." We said.

But we made out all the way home anyway.

THE END!

A/N: How'd you like it? Review!!! And look for updates on The Lizzie McGuire Movie soon! This was longer than I expected. I might post up a new story called "Romeo and Juliet", but that's a maybe. All my fanfics are L/G, so if you want some other couples, don't depend on me. And, if you want a sequel to this story, tell me! I want to write one, but there's no point in writing one if no one likes it! Ciao!
