I DO NOT OWN LIZZIE MCGUIRE
Last Laugh
Chapter Two
~10th Grade~
Lizzie walked up to her best friends in the cafeteria with excitement on her face. "Hey, guys! Guess what?"
"Uh, what?" Gordo asked.
Lizzie sat down, "Well, I was in the hallway and guess who asked me out?" Lizzie said with a smile on her face.
"Oh no," Gordo mumbled. He could tell he would hate this conversation.
Lizzie glanced at Gordo and rolled her eyes, and then turned her attention to Miranda, "So do you have any guesses?"
"No, I really don't," Miranda said, "Tell me!" Miranda was equally as excited.
"Martin Smith!" Lizzie said.
"No way! The varsity soccer player?"
"The one and only!" Lizzie said, "We are going out on Saturday!"
"Wow! You are so lucky!" Miranda said.
"Thanks! What do you think, Gordo?" Lizzie asked Gordo, who was silent.
Gordo forced a small smile, "Congratulations, Lizzie." He said, lacking enthusiasm.
Lizzie rolled her eyes, "Want to walk with me to my locker so I can give you details?"
"Yeah!" Miranda said. Both girls got up and walked out of the cafeteria and went into the hall.
"What was Gordo's problem?" Lizzie asked.
"I don't know. Maybe he's jealous," Miranda joked.
Lizzie didn't laugh, though. She didn't even think about that. She remembered the Rome trip, and how she and Gordo kissed. No one ever told Miranda about that. There really wasn't anything to tell, because nothing happened after that.
"You really think Gordo likes me?"
"Lizzie, I was joking," Miranda said.
"So you don't think Gordo likes me as more than a friend?" Lizzie repeated.
"I don't know! Who knows what goes on in Gordo's mind! Why? You don't like him, do you?"
"No, of course I don't" Lizzie answered. She thought she was telling the truth. A year ago, she liked him, but she thought she was over him by now because he seemed to loose interest.
"Are you sure, because now that I think about it, Gordo may like you," Miranda said.
"How can you tell?"
"You know the way you and I used to look at Ethan? I notice that sometimes Gordo sometimes gives you the same look. I always thought it was a habit, or just Gordo being Gordo, but he doesn't look at anyone else like that."
"So, you think Gordo could be jealous?" Lizzie asked.
"I don't know, but I could ask him for you if you want."
"What are you going to say exactly? I mean, you can't make it obvious."
"I don't know," Miranda smirked, "But I have my ways."
"I don't know, Miranda," Lizzie said as she bit her lip, "I don't know if I am comfortable with this."
"Oh, come on!" Miranda said, "The worst thing that can happen is that he will say yes. Or is that such a bad thing after all?" Miranda nudged Lizzie on the arm.
Lizzie shook her head, "Miranda! I really don't want to ruin my thing with Martin."
"Oh! This won't ruin anything. All it will do is find out the truth," Miranda said, "Besides, since when have you been into Martin?"
"Since the beginning of the year," Lizzie said, not really telling the truth.
Miranda rolled her eyes, "Well, whether you don't want me to or not, I am going to ask Gordo about it."
"Fine," Lizzie said, knowing that Miranda was going to have her way.

~That Day After School~
"Gordo!" Miranda yelled, seeing her friend in the crowded hallway a few yards away. Everyone had just gotten out of class, "Wait up!"
Gordo turned around and stopped, seeing Miranda look at him and wave. He waited for her to catch up and then they walked together.
"Where are you going?" Miranda asked.
Gordo looked around, confused, "Um, home."
"Cool! I will walk with you!"
"Okay," Gordo said, thinking this was a little weird.
"So," she said, once they were out of the building and on the sidewalk, "What was up with you during lunch?"
"What do you mean?" Gordo blushed.
Miranda rolled her eyes, "Gordo, I am not blind. I saw the way you looked when Lizzie was talking about her date."
"Oh, well," Gordo said, pausing for a second, "I didn't really feel like listening to the girl talk. That's all."
"Gordo! How dare you lie to me!" Miranda scolded, "That look was jealousy."
"What?" Gordo said, defensively, "What makes you think that?"
"Because," Miranda said, looking in his eyes, "I have seen that look before in your eyes. I see the sadness and jealousy there whenever Lizzie mentions another guy's name. I've seen it for the past three years."
Gordo looked at Miranda, debating about what to say, but he couldn't think of anything.
"Am I right?" Miranda asked.
Gordo sighed, "yeah, you are," he said, as if he had just told the world's top secret plans to the enemy. and he looked down at the ground, "I have to go," he mumbled as he started briskly walking away.

~This should be updated soon. I am planning on this story to a) be less than ten chapters and b.) be a lot more fun and happy (in other words much less drama) than Je t'aime and That's Amore. The chapters will probably be a little shorter than usual, though.
