Disclaimer: I don't own Lizzie McGuire or the characters in it. Except for
Byron.
Today was the day of Lizzie's first date with Gordo. Of course, she had gone on dates before but that didn't stop the jittery feeling in her stomach.
"Hey Lizzie, I'll meet you at 6:00? At your house I mean? Well you probably knew that, but I-" Gordo started to ramble. Obviously he felt the same jitters too.
"That's fine, Gordo." Lizzie smiled. She interrupted him, because if she didn't he probably would have kept rambling until 6:00. She looked at her clock and realized it was 4:21. Eek, she needed to get home really quickly. "Uh, Gordo, I have to run but I'll see you at 6:00." Lizzie ran home only looking back to wave at Gordo. Then she tripped over a fire hydrant.
"Lizzie, how was school?" Jo McGuire started up their usual after school conversation with Lizzie. The next line, delivered by Lizzie, was "fine." This time though, Lizzie said,
"Mom, I'm worried about Miranda. I think she may be sick or something."
"Oh, what happened?" Mrs. McGuire showed deep concern. She too remembered Miranda's eating disorder. "Oh wait, honey, Byron called? Is that Miranda's boyfriend? He said she never showed up for their date after school. He said he thought you might know where she was? I guess he went over to her house to look for her."
"Well I'm sure she has an explanation. He probably has found her by now anyway. Ahhh! Now it's 4:47! I have to get ready for my date!" Lizzie quickly bolted up her stairs. She took a shower, curled her hair, applied foundation, blush, lipstick and gloss, and eye shadow/mascara.*A girl has to look her best, right? Wow and it's almost 6:00, now!* Lizzie thought to herself. As if on clockwork, the doorbell rang. "I'll get it!" Lizzie shouted, but her dad, Sam McGuire beat her to it.
"Hey Gordo, how's it going? I guess you guys are going on your first date." Mr. McGuire smiled knowingly. "I remember my firs-"
"Um.that's great, Dad, really, but Gordo and I have to get going." Lizzie grabbed Gordo's arm and practically pulled him along. Lizzie soon let go and they walked to the cute restaurant around the corner. Once they got in, the were shown to a table. They both ordered, spaghetti and orange soda.
"So what's up, Gordonater?" Lizzie laughed at her new nickname for Gordo.
"Um, OK, Lizzinater, what's with the 'ater' part?" Gordo smiled at her. The makeup was working.
"You know, just stalling for time." Lizzie laughed again. She had actually forgotten about Miranda. Their food came, and they struck up a lively conversation about their teachers and their weird mannerisms. Finally they finished their pasta, and no, they did not do that thing where they stick a strand of spaghetti between their mouths and both eat at the same time until their lips touch.
"OMG, Gordo, I have to go home. I have to finish my homework!" Lizzie frantically put on her coat.
"Do you want me to walk you home?" Gordo started to get up from his seat.
"No thanks, Gordo. Besides I want to check up on Miranda. Well, see ya." Lizzie blew him a kiss, leaving Gordo to walk home by himself. He didn't care though, he was in love.
Lizzie ran to Miranda's house. She knocked on the door, but it appeared no one was home. So, being a good friend, or just being nosy, Lizzie opened the door. *Why is it unlocked?* Lizzie thought, worriedly. She opened the door only to be greeted by a sight that she never wanted to see in her life. She quickly whipped open her cell phone and called Gordo, who was luckily home by this time.
"Hello?" asked Gordo.
"Gordo, it's an emergency!" Lizzie started crying and the rest of her words were lost in sobs.
"Lizzie what's wrong?" Gordo jumped up, alarmed.
"It's Miranda! She's unconscious!"
A/n: Yes, I hurried through the date scene but I didn't want it to seem too long. Well please keep reading!
