Chapter 36: Make a Wish
A/N: Here's a chapter for all you guys who said you wanted longer chapters. Sorry I couldn't make it longer.
Lizzie POV
The next morning, I was in the best mood. I was nice to Kate, and to practically everyone else.
"Here, Kate. Have my cupcake." I said sweetly.
"Okay, what's going on here?"
"I'M GOING TO THE GRAND ILANDRA!" I screamed.
"Quiet down!" Somebody said harshly.
"Oh, I'm sorry."
"Uh, Lizzie, what's Grand Ilandra?"
"The event of the century!" I exclaimed, and skipped out of the breakfast room, without tripping.
"Lizzie?" Gordo asked me in the hall as I was returning to my room.
"Yeah?"
"Do you want to go to the Trevi Fountain again? I mean, I know you've been there before, but you want to go again?" He asked.
I smiled. "Why not? I'll go get ready." I skipped off.
"Uh... Lizzie? Be careful." He reminded me.

Gordo POV
I was outside Lizzie's hotel room door, waiting for her, and the weirdest thoughts were running through my head.
Was this considered a date? A real date? With Lizzie? It seemed so odd, yet right. Words just couldn't explain it. But if it wasn't a date, then what was it? I mean, all directions pointed that way. I was waiting outside her door, after all.
But if it was a date, why wasn't I nervous like I'd thought I'd be?
And why wasn't I hysterically excited?
I was totally calm. It was weird. I'd always thought that when I would go out with Lizzie, I'd be nervous and exited at the same time, but that didn't seem to be the case.
My thoughts were interrupted by Lizzie, who opened the door and came out.
"Ready?" I asked.
"Mmm-hmm. Let's go."
We walked off. The walk to the Trevi Fountain was only about ten minutes, but it took so much longer because Lizzie started pointing at every single thing. I thought getting into Grand Ilandra was the reason she was so perky, so happy. But I soon found out otherwise.
"May I ask why you're so happy today?"
"I-I don't know. I just feel so good when I'm hanging with my best friend." She said.
This was just a little sentence she'd said, but it effected my greatly. I mean, Lizzie liked hanging with me! I put her in a good mood. Me! Boring old Gordo.
We slowly approached the Trevi Fountain. Lizzie pulled out some pennies.
"Hey. Gordo? I forgot what you wished for. Did it come true?" Lizzie asked, still digging though her purse.
I sighed. "No. Not yet."
"Oh, then I know exactly what I'm going to wish for this time."
I smiled and pulled out a whole bunch of pennies from my pocket and threw them at Lizzie.
"Hey, what was that for!?" She exclaimed.
"For having your wish come true."
"Are you saying that you're *jealous*?"
"Something like that."
We started throwing pennies at each other, and when we ran out, we picked them up. And then we divided them equally and tossed them all in the fountain.
I wished for the same thing on each penny.
Guess what I wished for?
Oh, isn't it obvious?
Lizzie POV
I gathered all my pennies and made one wish.
Animated Lizzie: I wish... I wish Gordo gets his wish!
I threw them all in at once, making a fountain of pennies. They fell into the water and made a small splash. I smiled brightly.
"Don't worry, Gordo. You're wish will come true." I said, hugging him tightly.
