A/N Hey! I just got this idea for this fanfic, and I am not sure if it has been done before, but I hope you like it. I will also be working on my other one, "Lizzie Speaks What?" So be patient. I can't promise updates everyday, but I will try my best. Please read and review!

This has nothing to do with the other fanfic I wrote.

Disclaimer: I do not own Lizzie McGuire or any of the other characters mentioned.

This chapter takes place when Lizzie, Gordo, and Miranda are just out of college, about a year after, maybe.

Secrets

Chapter One

"How could you?" Lizzie asked Gordo. "I gave six of my best years to you, and now it's all gone down the drain. You ruined everything, and I will never forgive you for this. Never. Don't even try to apologize."

"Lizzie, wait!" Gordo yelled as Lizzie was leaving the room.

Lizzie stopped right as she reached the door. "Wait for what, Gordo? Wait for you to come around to giving an excuse for kissing her? I don't think so. I cannot continue in an unfaithful relationship."

"Lizzie, it is not my fault, I swear. She kissed me, and I never kissed her back. Lizzie, I.." Gordo said, but Lizzie had gone out the door by the time he was able to complete what he wanted to say. "Lizzie, I am sorry. I love you," he trailed off, as he stood there unable to believe what had just happened.

Gordo meant what he said, and was telling the truth, and Lizzie knew that, but she could not forgive him.

Flashback

Gordo was taking a young female client out to lunch, and chose not to tell Lizzie, because he feared it would make Lizzie jealous. Anyway, Gordo had resisted all the flirtatious attempts of the client, and was trying to ignore her, and was succeeding.

The next day, Lizzie stopped by Gordo's office (he works at an advertising agency) to meet him for lunch. She arrived early, and was waiting outside his office, when she saw a young woman wearing a really short skirt (the client) walk into his office, and she turned to see what was going on in the office, and she could not believe what she saw. The woman grabbed him and threw him to the wall and kissed him. He pulled her away, but in not enough time so that Lizzie wouldn't see. Gordo then realized that Lizzie was at the door, and he asked the woman to leave.

The client was hardly out the door when Lizzie appeared at the door on the verge of crying. It was then that she screamed at Gordo and walked away.

When Gordo returned to their apartment, which they started sharing as soon as they graduated college, he saw that everything that was Lizzie's was now gone. He slowly walked around, and saw nothing. He went into their bedroom, and in there, he found a scrapbook sitting on the bed.

Gordo sat on the bed and looked at the scrapbook. The scrapbook had pictures and a lot of little things that were memorable, a flattened rose, a post card, and a lot of other things that Gordo remembered and were special. Gordo could tell that she worked really hard on this, and when he flipped to the last decorated page, there were the words that really got him to cry. On the last page it said "Best friends for life, now, then, and for the many years to come in the future. I love you! Happy 6th anniversary!

Their sixth anniversary was coming up the next week, and it was then that Gordo planned to make a proposal of marriage to Lizzie. That looked like it was never going to happen though. It was then that Gordo realized that Gordo and Lizzie might never be Gordo and Lizzie ever again.







A/N This story is not as depressing as this chapter, and I apologize if this chapter makes anyone mad. May I remind you that this story is a Romance, not a tragedy, and there will be more chapters to follow.
