AUTHOR'S NOTE: Certain parts of this story will be in Gordo's point of view but the rest won't be. I'm sorry if it jumps around too much but this is the way it is. Thank you.
CHAPTER 1: The introduction
There are some stories that have to be told. This is one of mine. It started my senior year of high school. My friends and I were extremely excited because we knew this year was one of those defining years of our lives. If only I knew how defining it would be. Let me begin by explaining the first part of our high school careers.
Lizzie and I finally admitted that we have like each other freshman year. We were dating until the summer before our senior year. The reason Lizzie gave for the break up was that she did not want to ruin our strong friendship and she said it would be impossible to date through our college years. The day she broke it off was the day I was going to say that I was in love with her. At least I still had her friendship and a whole year to change her mind.
Miranda finally got her wish to date Ethan Craft junior year and they have not been separated since. At first it enraged Lizzie because old crushes die-hard and as for me, I still think the guy has an IQ of a carrot. We have both gotten use to the fact the Ethan may not be going anywhere. Miranda seems happy but I have my doubts.
My story begins our first day of senior year when everything changed in a minute.
"Hey guys!" Miranda shouted towards Lizzie and Gordo. "Isn't this awesome! We graduate this year!"
Lizzie and Miranda had a shout scream session. They still haven't changed much since middle school.
"This is going to be a great year and I'm glad I can spend it with my two best friends." Gordo said putting his arms around Lizzie and Miranda. Gordo was about to escort them to class when Ethan came up to Miranda.
"Hey babe, you're looking beautiful today." He said as he gave Miranda a kiss. Lizzie and Gordo cringed. "I can't walk you to class, I gotta little business to take care of."
"But Ethan, it's our first day." Miranda pleaded.
"Don't worry, babe. I'll see you at lunch." With that Ethan disappeared around the corner.
Miranda leaned against her locker. Lizzie and Gordo leaned beside her. "He has been so distant lately, do you think he wants to break up?" she asked.
"Every relationship has its rocky spots, you just have to work through them." Lizzie advised.
"You right. I just-" she stopped short and stared down the hall.
"Miranda? What is so interesting?" Lizzie followed her gazed and saw what caught her attention. Walking down the hall was the cutest guy she ever saw. He had dark hair and his eyes were the most beautiful shade of blue. He walked right up to Lizzie and Miranda.
"Hey, where is the office? I'm new here and I don't exactly know where everything is." He said in a light voice.
"Sure, I'll show you. My name is Lizzie by the way." Lizzie stuttered a bit.
"I'm Alex. It's great to meet you Lizzie." He smiled at her and she could have melted.
"Just follow me and we can get everything taken care of." They walked down the hall and all Miranda and Gordo could do was stare.
"She doesn't waste anytime. Lizzie's year is off to a great start." Miranda said.
"Yeah, great." Gordo smiled but he was breaking up inside. His heart was tearing apart to see the girl that he still loved leave with another guy. It was clear there was an attraction and Gordo new that while Lizzie was having the time of her life, his heart would break whenever he saw her with Alex.
