Disclaimer: I don't own Lizzie McGuire or anything related to it. The song 'Remember me this way' belongs to Jordan Hill.
"Every now and then"
"C'mon, Gordo! Let's dance!", 17 years old Lizzie McGuire said. They started dancing and a slow song appeared.
"We find a special friend"
He placed his arms around her waist.
"Who never lets us down"
She buried her head on his chest.
"Who understands it all"
She looked up and smiled at the baby-blue eyes staring at her lovingly.
"Reaches out each time you fall"
They hugged tighter.
"You're the best friend that I've found"
She then placed her head on his shoulder and looked him in the eye.
"I know you can't stay"
Ethan Craft came to ask her to dance.
"But part of you will never ever go away"
She nodded and they went, her eyes never leaving Gordo's.
"Your heart will stay"
He stood there, watching as Ethan tried to kiss her but she pulled apart.
"I'll make a wish for you"
She ran to Gordo and hugged him. "Bye, Gordo. I love you!", she cheerfully said.
"And hope it will come true"
"Gor-don, I wish you luck", Ethan said, holding Lizzie's hand.
"That life will just be kind"
He looked at her, her happiness was faked.
"To such a gentle mind"
She had tears on her eyes. "It's so hard for me to let you go...", she whispered him on his ear.
"If you're losing your way"
"I wish you the best of the lucks, Gordo"
"Think back on yesterday"
"Don't be stranger", she tried to joke.
"Remember me this way"
"I'll miss you…", she said. They hugged one more time and she sat in the other corner of the room, tears streaming down her face.
"Remember me this way"
He sighed. He surely didn't want to leave nor leave her like that. But he needed to. "It's the only way I'll get over you...", he muttered.
"I don't need eyes to see"
"We'll miss you, Gordo", Miranda said. They hugged.
"The love you bring to me"
He glanced in her direction one more time and saw Isabella was there, comforting her.
"No matter where I go"
"You won't get over her just leaving", Larry said. "You'll just break your hearts"
"And I know that you'll be there"
"You can't stop loving her just like that. Or leave her"
"For ever more a part of me"
He sighed again. "I know it", he said.
"You're everywhere"
"I love her, you know?"
"I'll always care"
"Why don't you tell her?"
"I'll make a wish for you"
"It's not that simple. She loves Ethan"
"And hope it will come true"
"She loves you too", Larry pointed.
"That life will just be kind"
"Just not in the way I want her to"
"To such a gentle mind"
"I'm just her best friend"
"If you're losing your way"
"You're like a brother to her"
"Think back on yesterday"
"That's the problem, Tudgeman"
"Remember me this way"
He got up and got out of the room.
"Remember me this way"
She cried harder.
"And I'll be right behind your shoulder"
Isabella hugged her while she cried.
"Watching you"
"Why does he have to leave?"
"I'll be standing by your side"
"He loves you, you know that", the Italian stated.
"In all you do"
"Just as a friend"
"And I won't never leave"
"Why can't he just see that I love her?", Lizzie inquired.
"As long as you believe"
"…maybe he wants to leave", Isabella suggested.
"You just believe"
"But… why? I LOVE HIM!"
"I'll make a wish for you"
"Go tell'em!", Isabella exclaimed.
"And hope it will come true"
"What if he just likes me as a friend?", the blonde asked.
"That life will just be kind"
"You will never know...", Isabella started.
"To such a gentle mind"
"…unless I try…" she got up and ran out of the room.
"And if you're losing your way"
"Gordo!", she yelled.
"Think back on yesterday"
"Don't leave! I love you..."
"Remember me this way"
Their eyes met.
"Remember me this way"
He smiled. "I could never leave you... I love you too"
