Now without further ado--- I Don't Like You Chapter 3, The Bet!!!!!
After school, Lizzie and Gordo got on the bus next to each other as usual. The bus ride was long and silent. (Well Lizzie and Gordo were silent.) When they stopped, Lizzie called Miranda to tell her about school and Gordo.
"Hello?" It was Miranda.
"Hey Miranda! It's Lizzie, how are you feeling?"
"Pretty good. I only threw up twice this afternoon!" She laughed, and so did Lizzie.
"Well school was the usual. Except for one small detail."
"Oh? And what's that?"
"Gordo told Tudgeman he likes me and then told me it was a trick but I know it was real." She said it so fast Miranda couldn't understand her.
"Whoa, slow down th," but she interrupted herself by saying, "He told Tudgeman WHAT?! Gordo actually told someone how he felt about you? He's no longer in denial! I need to give him a cookie for that…." Miranda kept rambling until Lizzie shouted, "You KNEW! You knew and didn't tell me! If you knew why is he denying it?"
"Yeah, I knew. I kind of blackmailed him into telling me. We had discussions about it, but when I went to Mexico we talked over the phone."
"He's liked me THAT LONG?!" Lizzie asked, amazed.
"Yep. So did you tell him you liked him too?"
"What? Are you crazy? I don't like Gordo! He likes me not the other way around."
"After all that's happened, and you STILL don't know that you like him?"
"But Miranda, I don't. You have everything backwards. You do no that you're talking to Lizzie, not Gordo."
"Of course I know that!" Miranda said. All of a sudden she felt like throwing up and said quickly, "I gotta go Liz. Talk to you later." Before Lizzie could say bye, she hung up. Lizzie just stared at the phone.

Miranda's POV
After talking with Lizzie, I immediately called Gordo.
"Hey Gordo it's me." I said when he picked up.
"Miranda? Hi." He replied. (A/N- For this conversation I'm going to make it like this: Me: Hi. Gordo: hi. Ect.)
Me (That's Miranda.): So what happened at school today?
Gordo: Nothing.
Me: Nothing? I just got off the phone with Lizzie.
Gordo: Oh. My. God. You didn't say anything did you? You promised. Did she mention I said I was tricked?
Me: Yeah but she said- [(This means it's not in the conversation.)I stopped, should I tell him she doesn't believe he was tricked? I decided against it.]
Me: She said she believed you.
Gordo: Phew. I was afraid I would have to switch schools!
Me: What would you run away to Canada?
Gordo (Laughs): Yeah and change my name. How does Mortacai Van Duson sound to you? [Ever since Gordo's "Plan" in Jr. High, when Kate broke the first principal statue head, Gordo and I had an inside joke about it.]
I laughed as well.
Me: But I still think you should tell her the truth.
Gordo: No way!
Me: Bt she deserves to know.
Gordo: I'm just not ready yet.
Me: Tell her by the end of the week and I'll give you 10 dollars.
Gordo: Make it 20 and you've got yourself a deal.
Me: If you were here, I'd shake your hand. But until then, just pretend saying 'Shake' is the same thing.
Together: Shake!
A/N- Hope you liked! Oh and I think I'll change the plot for this story: Lizzie finds out Gordo likes her, but he denies it. He makes a bet with Miranda to tell her by the end of the week. Meanwhile, Miranda's trying to set them up, while Kate's doing anything to stop it. I know the whole Kate thing is so random but I really don't care. How do you like the new plot? Better? Worse? And how was this chapter? Good? Bad?
