Disclaimer: I can only wish I owned Lizzie McGuire, which hasn't done me
any good for the past 2 years.
This chapter isn't very L/G-y, but there is some.
Miranda's POV
"OK," I said, very seriously, "as I've been trying to say, Lizzie and Gordo, you'll be performing "A Moment like This" by Kelly Clarkson." I looked at her two best friends turn around to look at each other and blush madly. 'Just what I wanted to see.' Miranda said, with a smirk on her face. Kate got up and walked over to me.
"Good choice." She said with a smile. Claire saw this and was furious.
"What are you doing talking to THAT?!?!"
Kate gave a nervous giggle, and then, blabbed on, about, what I think, came to the tip of her tongue. It was pretty obvious to tell she was lying, but Claire, not being the smartest girl on the block, didn't realize this."I was just reminding her that even though me and her are in the same group that this is DEFINENTLY not going to make us friends or something. And, in our performance, she can portray the part of the first girl, ya know, the one who does ballet and her head was up in space or whatever. Not that I listen to the kind of music that her kind listens too. But, anyway, I want to be the girl who gets Ethan in the end, so I was just letting her know that she has no chance."
"Good, I wouldn't want anyone to think one of my, the captain of the cheerleading squad, is friends with such a loser."
"Well Claire, don't worry, I'd never be friends with such a crappy lowlife"
'Crappy lowlife; that hurt.' I thought to myself, 'I know she doesn't mean that, but it still isn't the nicest thing to say.' I saw Kate whisper 'I'm sorry' to me when Claire went over to drool over Danny Kessler, and that made me feel a bit better. What made it really hurt was that Kate really understands me. Sometimes I think I like her more than Lizzie. Why? Because it's been a proven fact that Lizzie's best friend is Gordo and not me, which hurts. The two have a lot in common, not many things you see on the outside, but on the inside. They've been friends since the day they were born, where I didn't come in until the third grade. The two are inseparable, where sometimes I feel like Lizzie forgets about me completely. Don't get me wrong, I love Lizzie like a sister, just sometimes I just feel like 'tag along Miranda,' and I admit it, I am jealous of Gordo. A lot of times I wish I was Lizzie's only friend and I could be 'best friend Miranda' instead of 'tag along Miranda.' Although of this, I still want more than anything in the world for my two best friends to get together, Lizzie's always there for me, and I want the best for her. Most of the things I think are just out of jealousy. I know I'm not really a 'tag along' but I also know that Lizzie's best friend is Gordo, but that's OK. I think it took me until right now that maybe Lizzie can have two best friends, and maybe I can have three.
Gordo's POV
Oh man, Lizzie and I have to perform "A Moment like This." How do I know that Miranda did this purposely? No wonder she had that smirk on her face all day long. Why did I tell her to begin with? Actually, I had to tell her, if I didn't, I would've gone crazy. You see, one day Miranda and I were on the phone.
*Flashback* Miranda: Hey Gordo, what's up?
Gordo: Oh, nothing special. I just need to talk to you about something.
Miranda: Does it have anything to do with Lizzie?
Gordo: How'd you know?
Miranda: Come on Gordo, you flirt with her constantly; it doesn't take a genius to notice. I mean, I think Ethan knows.
Gordo: What I should I do about it?
Miranda: Tell her!
Gordo: Why would I want to do that? It's not like she likes me.
Miranda: Well, I don't know, she might.
Gordo: Huh? Did she tell you something?
Miranda: She didn't say anything to me, but did you ever notice when you flirt with her, she kind of flirts back?
Gordo: I guess I, umm.never noticed.
Miranda: Well you have to pay more attention to these things! Now go ahead tell her!
*click*
*End Flash Back*
Knowing myself, I didn't tell her. But I wish I did, because it's driving me crazy! Speaking of her, here she comes now. "Hey Lizzie!" I said, like nothing was going on.
"Hey Gordo, what's up?" She said, kind of nervously, like the nervousness I was trying to hold back when I was trying to talk to her.
"Nothing, I was just thinking about what we should do for this song. Miranda gave us a really." I trailed off.
"Hard song, yeah I know." Said Lizzie, she was blushing, I could tell, was what Miranda said true? Guess I'll just have to wait and see.
"Yeah, so, want to come over my house after school? We need to get started on this project; it's not going to be easy."
"Sure, I'll be over your house at 3:45, okay?"
"Sure, see ya then!"
Lizzie's POV
''I CAN'T BELIEVE MIRANDA!' I kept thinking, I can't believe she is making me and Gordo do "A Moment like This!" That's the last time I tell her anything. What are Gordo and I going to do for this project? It's going to be so hard! But hey, if at the end of this, Gordo and I get together, I'll thank Miranda. If not, then I don't know what I'll do.
"Lizzie, Lizzie, you there?" Man, Gordo always comes at the worst times.
"Yeah."
"I've been calling your name for the past ten minutes and you've just been staring out into space. Are you okay?"
"Uhh.yeah, yeah, I'm fine."
