[A/N]: Quick note, I'm sorry for not updating this story. I have all of my ideas on about 100 different note pads, but I didn't feel the inspiration to write the story when I have a small amount of support. I would really appreciate it if you guys would leave a review or e-mail me and tell me what I'm doing wrong or right so far. It doesn't have to be a good review, it could be a flame. I just need to know I have some readers out there.
-Chapter 11-
Miranda sat at a lunch table further from where she usually sat with Lizzie and Gordo. She was in a much better mood now, and she wanted to be alone so that nothing could ruin the moment. Miranda sat there still thinking about the events from the night before. She just couldn't help but to think about every time she lied on Gordo, cried on him, and the moments when she was safe in his arms.
Wait, why was she thinking about that? That's something a person doesn't think about when it's your best friend that you're talking about.
"Hey, I see that you're feeling better by the smile on your face." Miranda snapped out of her daze and looked up to see Gordo. She had not realized that she was smiling and felt a little dumb for doing so.
"Oh, yeah… I'm feeling much better; Thanks." Gordo sat down and placed his books on the table. "Did you get my note?"
"Yeah, I did. Isn't it nice to know that you have someone to drool on?" He slightly laughed and so did she.
"You don't have to worry about that, I don't drool… only half the time." They both laughed once more. "So, why didn't you sit with Lizzie?"
"Because I rather sit by you; Plus, I had to listen to Lizzie talk about things a guy should never know."
"I can only imagine." Miranda was smiling more than often now.
"Yeah… I had to sneak away once she started talking to a cheerleader. And what about you? How come you didn't sit with us?" Miranda scrunched her face up.
"Well… I think that Lizzie and I just don't mix anymore, ya know? I mean I love her to death and everything, but it seems as though we're two different people now. Plus, I'm having a great day thanks to you, and I didn't want to ruin my joy by sitting with Lizzie."
"Well, that sums it all up." Gordo replied with a tone of sarcasm in his voice. There was a silence before he continued. " Miranda, you know, you keep giving me the credit for your happiness, but the joy you wanted was in you all along… you just needed some help finding it to make everything gooder."
She laughed. "Gooder?"
"Yep..." He gave off one of his goofy smiles. "Hey, I was thinking do you want to do something this weekend? To get your mind off some things."
"Sounds good; Oh wait, I can't go anywhere on Saturday, I told my mom I would go shopping with her."
"Are you free Friday?"
"Yeah."
"Oh, I know, we could go to Ethan's birthday party."
"That's this Friday? But I though his birthday was next Friday."
"Maybe he forgot his own birthday, I don't know whats going on in his mind."
"Who does?" The bell rang for 7th period.
"Well, I guess it's a date." Gordo got up from the bench and picked up his books.
"Yeah, a… a date." Miranda smiled then stopped as Lizzie walked over.
"Gordo, walk me to class?" Lizzie turned away from Gordo and looked at Miranda. "Oh, hey Miranda. Feeling better?"
"Yeah, I'm great… Thanks for asking." Miranda was trying to be nice, and smiled back at Lizzie in an impractical way.
"Uhh yeah, Miranda you are you coming?" Gordo had his back against Lizzie as he asked her.
"Umm, no I'm gonna… you guys just go ahead." He gave her a look of unsure ness. "I'll walk myself."
"Okay, I guess I'll talk to you later." As he said that, he started walking away with Lizzie in front of him, then paused and turned around.
"Hey Miranda, I'm glad I have my best friend back." She smiled at him.
