Chapter 2
Recruits
The next morning Lizzie looked around the school and saw hot pink flyers everywhere. "Miranda, the flyers look so great!" Lizzie exclaimed.
"Thanks! I just hope that we actually can find some band members. Otherwise we may have to sing acapella." Miranda said.
"What's that?" Lizzie asked.
"It's when you have to sing without any music," Gordo interrupted walking up behind them.
"Yeah, what he said," Miranda answered.
"There's no way I am doing that!" Lizzie said.
"You could do it," Gordo replied. "You have a beautiful voice."
"Thanks," Lizzie said. She couldn't help but blush a little. Omigosh, I hope my face isn't turning red, she thought. If it is, Miranda will surely notice. But what he said was really sweet. Oh I can't be thinking this way, Gordo only likes me as a friend. Snap out of it! She looked up at Gordo and saw a little smile on his face.
Miranda noticed them sharing glances at each other and just rolled her eyes. "C'mon guys, let's get to class," she said.
Finally the last bell of the day rang, and the girls still hadn't found any band members.
"Well this is just great," Lizzie complained. "We're never going to find anyone for the talent show."
As soon as she said that she saw a guy run up right behind her. "You're Lizzie McGuire, aren't you?" he asked. Lizzie turned around and was face to face with one of the most gorgeous guys she had ever seen. He had blonde hair, tan skin, and bright green eyes. He towered over both girls.
"U-um, yeah I uh..." she tried.
"Yes, she's Lizzie and I am Miranda," Miranda chimed in. Lizzie turned to her and gave her a thankful glance. "And you are?" Miranda questioned him.
"My name is Troy. I recognized Lizzie from the whole singing at the IMVA's and all that. Then I saw your posters this morning and, well, two of my friends and I would like to be your band."
"That's great!" Lizzie said, finally mustering up enough courage to talk.
"Okay, cool so why don't we meet tomorrow after school and then walk over to Lizzie's to practice?" Miranda asked.
"That'll work! I'll tell the guys. See ya'll tomorrow." he answered.
"Bye!" both Lizzie and Miranda said at the same time. They turned to each other and giggled.
Great, that's all I need now is to watch Lizzie flirt with her little boy toy right in front of me, Gordo thought. He must not have done a good job at hiding his emotions because Lizzie noticed.
"Gordo, are you okay?" Lizzie asked him.
"Oh, yeah, never been better," he replied. Those were the last words he said all the way home.
Hope you liked it! It will get better! More L/G moments on the way!!! Carrie
