Disclaimer: I obviously don't own anything to do with Lizzie McGuire, or any song that I choose to use if I choose to use a song. I do however own any character outside of Lizzie McGuire, and the plot of this story.
A/N: Nothing to really say here except I hope you like the story, I'll try my best to keep it as interesting as possible, and if I don't well review and tell me so.
"Why are you always running to her when she needs you! Do you ever stop to think that maybe she's too dependent on you, and when she thinks that she needs you she really doesn't, she just knows that you'll stop everything that you're doing to be with her? She's ruining every hope and dream that you've have for yourself." She stated before walking out the door with her bag. And he went chasing after her.
"Lizzie wait! Please stop!" He shouted.
She turned stopped and turned around quite fast.
"What is there really left to say Gordo? Why don't you just go in there start studying and then when she calls drop it go see her and fail your test. Because that's what you do best. Anything I say right now would come out to being something that I'm going to regret…"
"She doesn't always call, and I don't always drop everything to go to her every beckoning call…"
"Look at what you're doing; you can't even talk to me without ever bringing her up. Yeah I get that you're trying to make a point but anytime we talk she always appears in the conversation. And I want something to be about US for once in the years or so that we've been together."
"I'm sorry that I care for her and I'm sorry that I'm nice enough to go and help her when she needs me to…"
"And I'm going to guess that you're going to say that she appreciates everything that you've done, and that she keeps everything that you do in mind. Which is a lie, because if she did, she wouldn't call you at two fucking o'clock in the morning from New York asking if you could help her, so of course you jump on a fucking a plane and GO! The thing that sucks is that you obviously care more for her then you do about me. And that makes me think that all that stuff about liking me in middle school, and loving me up until I told you how I felt and we started dating, is all I LIE!"
"It wasn't a lie."
"That's all you can say! We're done!"
"What?"
"We're over as in no more!"
I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out
I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I'm ok
But that's not what gets me
Lizzie walks down the stairs, and out the door. Gordo never tried to stop her, which made her sad.
Gordo stood at the top of the stairs for a half an hour after she left, he was hoping that she would come back up the stairs, which she never did.
What hurts the
most
Was being so close
And having so much to say
And
watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have
been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was tryin' to
do
Lizzie went and stayed with her parents for the time being, she wanted to go stay at Miranda's but knew deep down that she couldn't. Mainly, because she was the reason for her Gordo breaking up.
Sam and Jo gladly took their daughter in they didn't like the reason for her coming to stay but they loved that she's finally home. Matt well he was also happy to see his sister back home, but that could be because he had some new prank he wanted to test out. But that wasn't even it either.
It's hard to deal
with the pain of losing you everywhere I go
But I'm doin'
It
It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and
I'm alone
Still Harder
Getting up, getting dressed, livin'
with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade
give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left
unspoken
Gordo called Miranda and told her, but she didn't seem to care she wasn't about to just leave her date to be there for Gordo.
"Miranda, can you come over I need someone to talk to?" Gordo asked.
"Gordo talk to Lizzie, I'm in the middle of a date." Miranda replied.
"That's who I need to talk to you about."
"Gordo I'm in the middle of a date."
"Lizzie was right about you." He exclaimed before he hung up on her.

Gordo hated that she was right about the whole thing that he began to question himself and what he's going to do next.
How could I have just let her walk away like that? How stupid could I be? I need to find a way to get her back but how? She already hates me.
Gordo went to his desk and began to write Lizzie a letter that he was going to give her the next day, considering they basically worked together. Little did he know that she was also writing him one, but they were a little different.
After he finished writing that letter he walked around the apartment and he couldn't help but think of Lizzie and remember things.

The next day they saw each other at work, and handed each other their letters that they had written the day before.
Lizzie walked away, she went into her office and opened her letter and began to read the letter:
Dearest Lizzie,
It sucks being alone in this apartment, I miss you! I just keep remembering things that have happened here. You keep popping up in my head. And you were right, Miranda doesn't really appreciate what I've done for her and do, I learned that last night when for the first time I needed her she wouldn't stop what she was doing to help me. I guess it took something bad to happen, like losing you before I could realize that she was taking an advantage of me. But, I won't let her anymore, and I know that won't make us right again. There's more that I'd like to say but to be completely honest I can't write it all down on a piece of paper. I am sorry for everything, for not being there for you when you needed me, for always leaving to help Miranda, for ruining this relationship, for even more.
Love always,
David Gordon 'Gordo'
She liked that he took the time to write this letter, and to apologize to her. She wishes that she could tell that he was sincere about it all, but she wouldn't know unless she heard it from him straight. But couldn't talk to him about it right now not at work.
Gordo got into a conversation with a co-worker so he didn't get to his office at his usual time. When Gordo got to his office he opened his letter and began to read the letter:
Gordo,
I miss you! It sucks that we're over, but we both seen it coming. I think I put up with it so much because I didn't want to admit it to myself that things we're going bad. I wish that yesterday would have happened a bit differently but I finally got fed up with it all. I think that it would be good if we just took a break from each other for awhile, I believe it for the best. Maybe once we try this we can try again and actually make it work much better then we did. I hope you understand why we have to do this. It sucks not having you around, and it is only one night but it's all the same. I guess once you get so used to having a certain person around for so long, and when they're not around anymore you feel lonely, which is what I felt last night. Well I can't really write much more, but maybe we can get together and talk sometime.
Love always,
Elizabeth 'Lizzie' McGuire
Not seeing that
loving you
That's what I was trying to do
