Disclaimer: I don't own Lizzie McGuire or anything related to it. The song 'Smoke And Mirrors' belongs to Skye Sweetnam.
Summary: What hurt her the most was that she had never gotten a chance to tell him how much she loved him. One-shot.
"For someone so young and naive""Yeah, I'll be right back," Lizzie said, walking to the bathroom.
"Hard to know what to believe"She grabbed her head with her hands, closing her eyes.
"Still I thought I tried for a while"It pained her too much to see the guy who once was her best friend, now dating Kate Sanders.
"Turning round and giving up is not my style"He had become a male version of her, now not even noticing his ex-best friends.
"On my own on my own way"What hurt her the most was that she had never gotten a chance to tell him how much she loved him.
"Bottled up is where my fears go, my fears go"She sat on the cold floor, still holding her head.
"I will never show my fear"Too many feelings bottled up.
"They'll tear me up until my tears show, my tears show"Tears appeared on her eyes and she grabbed her backpack, getting up.
"Smoke and mirrors"Just to light something up, just to let her down one more time.
"You must try hard, don't give in"Clearing the smoke from around her, she threw her cigarrette to a side.
"Keep it up and you win"She walked right by their table, trying not to look at him.
"Don't let them know they get to you"Kate made a few rude comments and he smirked, while Lizzie tried to ignore the voices that were piercing her ears.
"Put on a brave face and you'll get through"She passed their table and walked back to Miranda.
"On your own, on your own way"Her best friend stared at her face strangely, but Lizzie continued looking down.
"Bottled up is where your fears go, your fears go"Lizzie sat on her bed, lighting another cigarette.
"You will never show your fear"It was the only thing that made her feel complete.
"They'll tear you up until your tears show, your tears show"With tears burning in her soul, she got up.
"Smoke and mirrors"She stared at the reflection her mirror showed her. A pale girl with broken lips and dark limp hair.
"This journey of ours never ends""I love you," she muttered as he kissed her stomach. He stared at her.
"We will always pretend""I do too," he replied, kissing her longly on the lips.
"Fighting not to let them win""Its kinda late. Kate's coming," Gordo said. Lizzie nodded.
"And they're falling into our illusion"He helped dressing her up, kissing her smooth skin.
"On our own on our own way""Come back tomorrow," he pleaded. She smiled. It felt kinda weird to see David Gordon pleading Lizzie McGuire to come back to him.
"Bottled up is where out fears go, our fears go"Lizzie opened her eyes and took the cigar off from her mouth.
"We will never show our fear"She walked out of her room, and straight to the school's football field.
"They'll tear us up until our tears show, our tears show"He was playing there, as usual, and Kate was trying to make him stare.
"Smoke and mirrors"She passed right beside her and got to Gordo's side.
"Its about smoke and mirrors"For a moment, it didn't matter that she was Lizzie McGuire (geek) and him David Gordon (jock). The only thing that mattered was that they were in love... and that they showed that.
