Miranda stretched and yawned. The sun shone brightly in her eyes as she struggled to find the alarm clock and shut it off. The first day of summer and already she was forced to wake up at 7:00 am. What a rotten thing to do to a soon to be high school junior. She stretched out and thought about the summer that was soon to be underway. Her and her best friends Lizzie and Gordo had signed up to be counselors at a summer camp nearby. Ethan, Tudgeman and Kate were also going to be working there. Miranda dragged herself out of bed and into the bathroom. Gazing in the mirror she decided that she didn't look half-bad today. Her new short layered and highlighted hair was looking pretty good when the light from the window hit It and her new berry flavored lip gloss would look cute today with her khaki shorts and light pink tank top. Her contacts were a pain in the butt to get in and she almost poked her eye out when the phone rang.

"Hello"

"Randa its Lizzie"

"Oh hey."

"I'm picking up Gordo and coming straight to your house so be ready to leave in like ten minutes"

"Ugh! Sure thing Lizzie but let me go now so that I can finish getting ready"

"Sure thing. Toodles!"

"Later gator"

Miranda hurriedly shoved some last minute things into her suitcase, patted her dog on the head and ran out the door.

Gordo decided that Lizzie's car wasn't as bad as he originally thought it was. It was an old vintage bug that her mother had given to her when she turned sweet sixteen. The paint was chipping, it didn't have a CD player, and the windows didn't go all the way down but it was better than what he had, which was nothing. He was lazily drumming on the dashboard as Lizzie drove him and Miranda up to the camp where they would be spending their entire summer. He couldn't help but wonder how he had gotten sucked into this. Lizzie was looking quite cute on this particular day. Her long blonde sun kissed hair was up in a ponytail and her Jean shorts were fairly short. He had to admit that she was looking good. He hoped that she didn't catch the eye of any of the other male counselors.after all this was the summer when he was finally willing to admit to his true feelings.

Lizzie struggled with the car radio hoping to pick up a trace of britney spears or Michelle branch. But no luck. All she could find was blue grass and oldies. She turned off the radio in frustration and struck up a conversation with Gordo who was running his fingers through his messy mop top.

"So Gordo did 'Randa fill you in about the schedule?"

"Nope.care to?"

"Sure. Well the first two weeks is training and then they'll assign us each a specific unit of the camp that we are going to work with."

"What do you mean"

"Oh you know like one person will teach the horse session, one will teach swimming, one will teach nature"

"Ooh I see."

"Yeah. I hope I get to do something fun. Ugh and I hope I get to work with you guys. Two people to a unit though so either way one of us will be left out"

Lizzie secretly hoped that she would get to work with Ethan. He would look so hot in his summer gear. She couldn't wait.

After what seemed like an eternity the trio arrived at their destination: oakbridge summer camp of northern California. It was quite rural. And Miranda was astounded to see that there weren't too many people there. Jackie was the camp owner and she gave them a little speech on rules and such. Miranda mostly stared at a shaggy blonde boy sitting in the front row. He looked like the surfer type. Nice tan, nice body, nice style, Miranda was definitely going to have to talk to this one. Sitting next to him was a girl with dark curly hair. Her hair was a mess. It was thrown into a ponytail and it had probably not been washed in a couple of days. Her nametag read Charlie and she was guessing that that was short for charlotte. Jackie informed them that they would be broken into groups for training. Luckily they were grouped according to the order in which they had signed up in so the three amigos were going to be together. They listened patiently for Jackie to announce the group with their names in it"

"Group number four", her voice boomed, "Miranda Sanchez, Lizzie McGuire, David Gordon, Baxter Rawlings, Tyler Krebs, and Wyatt Zito. Why don't you guys gather over here in this corner."

Miranda was delighted to see that "Baxter Rawlings" was the name of the cute shaggy blonde. Tyler or "ty" as she asked to be called, was a cute little brunette with blonde highlights and blue eyes. Then there was Wyatt Zito he had a headful of black Italian curls that stuck out from under his baseball cap. Definitely a cutie. Once they were all introduced they headed to their cabins. The three girls, Ty, Lizzie, and Miranda, were all in one cabin and the three boys, Gordo, Wyatt, and Bax, were all in another. They were assigned to the two cabins farthest in the woods and they grabbed their luggage and headed out.

Lizzie was a little disappointed to find that Ethan, Kate, and Tudgeman were put in different groups and she was left with three complete strangers, but at least she still had Gordo and Miranda. Baxter and Wyatt the boys in the group were both darling and Tyler the other girl seemed super nice. When they all had their stuff set up in the cabin they scoped out there home for the next two weeks until they got their assignments. The two cabins were relatively close to each other and in-between them was a small fire pit and in front of that was the shore of the lake. They had their own private beach. Lizzie was thrilled! After she was done scoping she was about to return to her cabin get changed and invite Miranda to take a dip with her she saw Baxter trying to start a fire. He was rubbing two sticks together and Lizzie couldn't help but notice the way his muscular arms were beading with sweat as he worked. She shook her head to bring her focus from his "manly physique"

"Oh hey umm do you need any help?"

"Nah", Baxter replied with a grimace, "Jackie gave me some matches I was just trying to see if I could pull it off the Boy Scout way"

They both chuckled

"So umm I was gonna go for a swim do you wanna come?"

"Sure. Why don't we invite everyone? It'll be a neat way to get to know eachother.I'm Bax, by the way.you're Lizzie right?"

"Umm yeah." she couldn't help but blush.

"Well ill tell ya what.ill go get Wyatt and David.."

"Gordo!" Lizzie interrupted, "hahaha call him Gordo. Hell get mad if you call him David"

"Oh sorry" Bax blushed and Lizzie wished that she wouldn't have had such a sudden outburst

Thirty minutes later they were all laughing and splashing around in the water. Wyatt was running around dunking the girls. He was definitely the comedian of the group, and Gordo was talking about directing and movie making with Bax who was interested in acting. Miranda seemed to be flirting heavily with Wyatt by tugging on his curls. And Ty and Lizzie were having a conversation sitting on the floating dock. Gordo decided that out of all of the guys he liked Wyatt the best. He hadn't really talked to him, but he was quite charismatic, especially when it came to the ladies. He decided that he was going to take notes on Wy's behavior and try to get to know him better. He was enjoying talking with Bax about film making though. But he couldn't keep his eyes off Lizzie as she giggled and laughed with Tyler who was quite attractive as well.

After about an hour or two of swimming the sun had set and the counselors headed to the beach to dry off? Lizzie had decided that Tyler was a very cool girl and that she could maybe help her land Baxter, Miranda had decided that Wyatt was much more attractive than Baxter, and Gordo was more in love with Lizzie than ever.
