Hey guys. This is the next chapter. Sorry it took so long but I had to go
back to school.
MIRANDA'S POV
"What did you want to tell me" said Lizzie.
"Um, I was telling Gordo here what we should try to do together before we go back to school" I said knowing darn well I was lying.
Gordo just looked at me in disappointment. But he hid his disappointment from Lizzie and Jason.
"So what did you want to do" said Jason.
"Well I was waiting for you guys to finish your little meeting in there and then we could all decide together" I said diverting the attention away from me.
"Speaking of the meeting what happened between you two" said Gordo taking my cue.
"Um well, Lizzie and I decided to go ahead and start dating" said Jason grabbing Lizzie's hand, "As long as it is cool with you two" said Jason.
"It's fine with me" I said.
"And you guys already know how I feel" said Gordo.
"Well alright!" said Jason.
"Yeah thanks guys. Um me and Jason also kinda wanted to spend some time together, you know to get to know each other" said Lizzie.
"Oh, well I guess me Miranda will have to find something to do with our time" said Gordo with a smirk.
"Yeah, I guess we will" I said, sorta laughing.
"Hey, I know you guys will find something to do. But on the last week before we go back to school we are all going to spend some time together, okay" said Lizzie.
"Definitely" said Gordo.
"Alright well now that we know what we are doing, Gordo my friend I think it is time for us to leave, you know we don't want parental duty coming down the steps" said Jason.
"I hear you man, but let me talk to Miranda for a sec so we can figure out what we are going to do tomorrow" said Gordo.
"Alright, that sounds like a good idea. Lizzie let's talk about what we are going to do tomorrow" said Jason smiling at her.
"See you in 10 minutes Jay" said Gordo.
Jason shook his head and he and Lizzie went outside the kitchen into the foyer to talk. Gordo and I waited until they were out of sight before we started to talk. After we were pretty sure they had left Gordo just stared at me.
"Gordo don't look at me like that" I said pleadingly.
"Why didn't you tell her" he said kinda angry.
"I don't know, I just froze, I didn't expect her to be standing right there right then" I said.
"Miranda we are going to have to tell her sooner or later and I preferably would like it to be sooner" said Gordo.
"Okay but can it wait until I move into my place when my family comes next week" I said.
Gordo shifted from side to side, I could tell he was not sure that we should wait that long.
"Look Gordo, Jason and Lizzie just started dating they are not even going to notice us because they are too concerned about themselves right now. I will tell Lizzie when the time is right, I promise" I said giving Gordo the sad eyes.
"Ah, don't give me the sad eyes" said Gordo.
They obviously were working so I poured it on even more.
"Okay, okay, we can tell her later but I hope it is soon Sanchez" said Gordo. Then he gave me a sweet kiss on my lips.
"I promise" I said returning the kiss. "So, Mr. Gordon what do we have planned for tomorrow" I said.
"I'm not quite sure, but I kinda have an idea" said Gordo.
"Really, so what are we going to do" I asked.
"I'm not telling you. You are just going to have to wait until tomorrow" said Gordo smiling.
"Why" I whined. Then I tried to use the sad eyes again. "Oh, don't try to use those sad eyes again cause it's not going to work" Gordo said smiling.
"You don't like my eyes anymore" I said trying to use my best baby voice.
"Of course I love your beautiful eyes" he said then gave me a kiss on my forehead, "but those beautiful eyes are not going to get any of my ideas for tomorrow" he said laughing as my face dropped.
"Fine!" I said trying to sound annoyed.
"Look, I can tell you to meet me at Hillridge Junior tomorrow and we will take it from there" he said.
"Okay" I said looking suspicious. "But why the middle school" I asked.
"Ah, ah, ah, no more questions, just meet me there at 11:00" he said.
"Alright, alright" I said.
Just then, Jason came in and told Gordo it was time to go.
"Alright my love I have to go" he said. He tried to lean in and give me a kiss but I pulled away because I heard Lizzie saying good night to Jason and I knew she was on her way in. Gordo looked at me kinda weird, but just like I thought Lizzie popped in.
"Hey Gordo, Jason is waiting for you in the car. I am going to go to bed Miranda, I'll see you when you get up there" she said.
"Okay" we both said. And with that Lizzie turned and walked upstairs to her bedroom.
"Close call" I said.
"Yeah I know, but now that the coast is clear I can kiss you good night" said Gordo with a smirk on his face.
Gordo leaned in to kiss me for what seemed like the hundredth time tonight. This kiss wasn't as intense as the last couple of times, it was sweet and innocent like we both knew that eventually everything would work out for the best. Every time we kissed I knew in my heart that it was right for us to be together, I just had to be honest with everyone involved. The kissed lasted for a couple more minutes then Gordo pulled away.
"Good Night my love" he said squeezing my hand.
"Until tomorrow" I said returning the squeeze.
I walked Gordo to the door and watched him get in Jason's truck. I waited until they were out of the driveway and halfway down the street before I closed the door. I walked upstairs to the bedroom to find Lizzie fast asleep so I thought.
"Hey Miranda, what took you so long" she said still half asleep.
I jumped. Then I told her me and Gordo were trying to make plans for the next day.
"Oh, sorry I scared you. What did you guys decide on" she asked.
"You know I have no idea because our friend Gordo wouldn't tell me" I said laughing.
"Oh" she said smiling.
"What are you and Jason doing tomorrow" I asked.
"All he would tell me is that we are going on a road trip" she said.
"Oh, so you're clueless just like me" I said smiling getting into bed.
"Yeah I am. Night Miranda" she said.
"Night Lizzie" I said.
I lay in bed, like I have been doing since I have been home thinking. I know I should tell Lizzie but the timing is just not right. I can at least wait until I get into my own house to break it to her that I have fallen for Gordo. I know I am making the right decision. Before I knew it I had fallen asleep thinking about the next day's events.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~//~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~//~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~//~~~~~
The next morning Lizzie and I woke up and got ready for our dates. Except Lizzie didn't know that me and Gordo were going on a date she just thought it was the two amigos hanging together without her. I could tell she was excited about her and Jason spending today together alone because she changed her outfit like eight times and she could not stop smiling. I have to admit I was happy for her, or was I happy for myself because I sorta was acting the same way except I only changed my outfit three times.
"Lizzie you look great! You and Jason are going to have a blast together" I said.
"I know I just want everything to be perfect" she said blushing.
"Everything will be perfect. You just have to relax" I said.
"Okay, I will try to relax but its not going to be easy" she said. "I hope you and Gordo don't think that me and Jason are ditching you two" she said with the I'm sorry face. "No we don't think that. What ever Gordo has planned for us today will be fine, so stop worrying. Gordo is fine with the way everything is going and so am I" I said convincingly.
"Well, I hope so. I don't know what Jason has planned but I can't wait" she said with her famous Lizzie squeak.
"Well whatever he has planned I'm sure you will have a blast" I said smiling.
Just then the doorbell rang and Mrs. McGuire yelled for Lizzie to come met Jason down stairs.
"Ah Miranda this is it. Wish me luck okay" she said giving me a hug.
"Good luck Lizzie and remember have fun and don't worry" I said ushering her out the bedroom door.
"You and Gordo have fun too! And thanks Miranda for everything" she said as she was walking down the steps.
Jason looked at her with amazement in his eyes. They exchanged pleasantries and out the door they went. I went back into the bedroom to finish getting ready and realized I had only 20 minutes to finish my makeup, finish getting dressed and get to Hillridge Middle which was 15 minutes away. I dashed in front of the mirror and finished my makeup. I walked to my bed in put on my blue and white mid-drift t-shirt that had 'Directors are Hot' across the front, I slid into my khaki pants and decided on my blue converses for shoes. I ran down the steps yelled goodbye to Matt and the McGuire's and was on my way to the school.
I walked really fast to the school and jogged like the last five minutes there. I didn't want to start sweating really bad. When I got there Gordo was waiting by the tree where Lizzie, Gordo and I used to eat lunch.
"Hey beautiful your 5 minutes late" he said smiling.
"I know, I'm sorry but I was helping Lizzie get ready this morning" I said kinda out of breath.
"Oh your excuse then" he said, and then he leaned in and gave me a kiss. It was the I missed you kiss.
"Um, that was nice" I said pulling away and whipping my lips.
"Thank you and that shirt your wearing is nice too. I love it" he said smiling.
"Thank you, I knew you would like it" I said. "So, Gordo what are we doing today" I asked.
"Well first, I gave you a kiss, and now I will give you these" he said.
He handed me these beautiful bouquet of flowers. They were lilies which were my favorite.
"How did you know that lilies where my favorite flowers" I asked him smiling.
"You said it one time when we were in the Digital Bean like in the 7th grade and I remembered" he said.
"Ah, Gordo gets extra points for this one" I said laughing.
"Thank you, I will cash in those points when we reach our destination" he said smiling. "But first you have to put this blind fold on when we get into the car which I borrowed from my dad" he said smiling.
"You have a driver's license" I asked looking sorta of shocked.
"Yes I do" he said ushering me to his dad's Honda. "Now get in" he said opening the door.
Gordo went to the driver's side and got into the car. He instructed me to put the blindfold over my eyes. Then he started the engine and we were on our way. We drove what seemed like an half an hour, I totally whined the whole way saying the blindfold was bothering me even though it wasn't, I just wanted to see were we were going. Gordo finally stopped the car and ran to the other side to let me out. Then he took the blindfold off of me. I opened my eyes and saw that we were at the beach.
He looked at me and said, 'I was thinking our first date should be relaxing'. I couldn't have agreed more. He went to the trunk and took out a lunch basket, a blanket, and a cooler. I helped him carry the blanket and we went and found the perfect spot on the beach. It was right next to the bushes towards the end of the beach it wasn't too cool and it wasn't too hot, it was perfect.
Gordo and I ate lunch and talked about everything and nothing. After lunch we decided to go play in the water for a bit. I couldn't get too wet because I didn't bring a bathing suit. But we ran around in the water for what seemed like hours than we collapsed on our blanket and just starred at one another.
"Miranda, I know this is right" he said to me grabbing my hand.
"Me too" is all I could muster up.
He pulled my arm and held me in between him while we looked at the ocean. "Miranda Isabella Sanchez, I love you" he said a little above a whisper.
"I love you too David Zepher Gordon" I replied.
Gordo took me into his embrace and we kissed again. His lips were in perfect harmony with mine and our tongues danced around in a passionate love dance. We made out for a long time, to the point were we started touching and feeling on one another. Then out of no where......
"GORDO! MIRANDA!" someone shrieked.
Gordo and I broke apart only to look at our worse nightmare. All I could do was stare in disbelief.
"Hey Lizzie" I heard Gordo say barely audible.
Keep reviewing guys!
