A/N... thanks for the nice reviews. I continue. Thoughts are in bold... you'll see.. and see ch. 1 for a disclaimer.BR
The next day dawned normally for Miranda, as it did for Lizzie, as well as most of the other people in the world. But Gordo woke up to something pretty strange and new that morning...BR
B"If he doesn't get up now, I swear I'm gonna strangle my boy," A woman's voice said, inside his head.BR
"David Gordon, get up. It's time for school," The same voice said, through his ears. His mother's voice, along with the chirping of the birds and the sunlight sprinkling down upon him.BR
"Mom?"BR
B"He needs an alarm clock! How much longer can I do this?"/B The same voice said. But it wasn't speaking! Weird...BR
"I'm getting up, I'm getting up," He said, pulling his groggy body out of bed, too confused to make any sense of it.BR
As soon as he entered the school, he was assaulted by a sea of voices. Feminine voices.BR
B"Oh my god! I am so fat in this dress..."BR
B"Pleeeeaase, God, let him ask me to the dance..."BR
B"Where's my homework? Oh my god! I can't find it! Where is it?"BR
BR
Gordo looked around, dazed. The girls' lips weren't moving as they passed him, but he could have sworn he could hear them talking to them selves as they passed.BR
Then, he saw Kate. She strutted through the halls, clutching her books and going in a bit of a hurry. Then he heard Kate's voice say,BR
B"Ah, and there's Gordo... mmm he's in plaid today. Kinda cute. As usual.... but, like, oh my god, does his hair need work!"BR
"Kate?" He asked, not believing his ears.BR
"What do you want, Gor-dork?" Her voice was acidic as she flipped her hair, but was obviously startled. He turned away in disbelief. This was NOT happening. Unless... he could read thoughts. He needed to see Lizzie and Miranda. And that's just who be bumped into, barely noticing, because he was so deep in confusion.BR
(Animated Gordo **blinking uncontrollably** Whoaaa... I must have had too much pop last night...)
BR
"Hey Gordo," Said Miranda. "Where's Lizzie?"BR
"Not sure. Haven't seen her yet today."BR
B"But OooOOoOOoh, doesn't he wish he has!"/B something very Miranda-ish squealed in his inner ear. Gordo shook his head, once again in disbelief.BR
"Hey Miranda, care for a game of rock-paper-scissors?"BR
"Um.... well, sure..." Said Miranda, obviously wondering why he asked her to do such a thing. "You okay, Gordo?"BR
He tried to think of an excuse, but couldn't. It was okay if he was acting a little weird, he just needed to get to the bottom of this.BR
B"Poor Gordo, he always loses at this game. He always does rock, so I'll do... paper."BR
Gordo quickly made a "scissors" behind his back.BR
"Rock, Paper, Scissors!" Miranda and Gordo said in unison.BR
Gordo pulled out his scissors. Miranda had her paper. Gordo's eyes lit with the spark, you know, the spark that only comes when you have newfound power...BR
"Ah-ha! I beat you!" He said, doing a little Gordo dance in the middle of the hallway. The bell rang as Lizzie walked past.BR
"Gordo?"BR
"Don't ask me," Miranda said. "He's acting weird lately. He just challenged me to a game of 'rock, paper, scissors.'BR
(Animated Gordo: **scribbles stuff down on a piece of paper** What else could I have done? I need to figure this all out!)BR
Gordo went to his first class and sat down. He could hear the thoughts of the girl behind him as she dreamt about dating a movie star. Not very interesting, according to Gordo. He wished he could turn this off. Then again, what about Lizzie? He could read her thoughts, as well!BR
(Animated Gordo: **floats on a pool raft, sips a smoothie and eats curly fries** I could get uuuused to thiiiis....)
BR
Time passed slowly until lunch. Gordo tried hard to tune out the thoughts of most girls (He soon figured out that it was only girls he could hear, after trying to get into the mind of Tudgeman) until he could talk to Lizzie. He found her in the hallways.BR
B"He's in plaid today. He looks so good in plaid! Wait, no, it's Gordo, he's always looking good. I have, like, such stylish friends!! If I were his stylist, I wouldn't change a thing."BR
(Animated Gordo: **on pool raft, scribbling on the notebook from before** Note to self. Wear plaid more often.)BR
"Hey Lizzie!" Gordo said, smiling. "You know, I was thinking," He said, tugging at his clothes and pulling at his hair, "I might need a new look. Something more... cool."BR
"Nah," Said Lizzie. "Now, there are some people, like Kate, who do... I mean, she thinks she's so cool, but she's a fashion disaster! But you? Don't change, Gordo! Now, as for myself...." She started., but was cut off.BR
"You're just fine," Gordo said. "Except for maybe the fact that the hairclips are too big." He raised a hand to tug at one, but was playfully slapped away.BR
"Don't mess with the hair!" Lizzie said.B"I wonder if Gordo would think my hair was soft... that is, if I ever let him touch it..."/B
"Maybe you should," Started Gordo.BR
"Huh?" Said Lizzie, in a strange tone.BR
"Nothing," Replied Gordo, looking down. "I gotta get to class. I'll talk to you later."BR
Meanwhile, Miranda roamed the halls in search of the one and only Ethan Craft....BR
(Sooo... what's gonna happen next? Will Madame Maiga be satisfied with this spell, or will she try another? And don't you know that you can risk royally messing things up when you meddle with them? (Grin) hehehe.. oh, and how's my writing? Is everyone in character? I sure hope so. Questions? Suggestions? Comments? Well then comment! Over and out!)
