Disclaimer: I do not own anything related to Lizzie McGuire the series/books/cast/ or movie.

A/N: This is my Kate Saunders & Lizzie McGuire fanfic (no, they're not dating lol). If you wanted a Lizzie/Gordo story I do have one titled "True Feelings". That fanfic also has Lizzie/Ethan, Ethan/Kate and some Miranda in there. It's a drama (major) fanfic. BUT ENOUGH ABOUT MY OTHER STORY, LET'S GET ON W/ THIS ONE! This chapter takes off where Lizzie gets dumped by Ronnie.

"Are you breaking up with me?" Lizzie asked, trying to hold back tears.

"Well, it's just that it would be easier to date someone who goes to my school. Oh, but you cant still keep the ring. if you want."

"No, no." Tears were rolling down Lizzie's face as she handed Ronnie the ring. She dodged her parents' questions as she ran inside and up to her room.

'I can't believe this is happening! What's wrong with me? Why did he just dump me? I never even saw it coming! I'm so damn naïve! She's probably prettier than me! That has to be it. Or maybe she's smarter. And she's probably more fun to be with! How could I have been so stupid?' Lizzie thought to herself as she cried into her pillow.

A FEW MONTHS LATER

"Hey Lizzie." Claire stepped in front of Lizzie. "Heard you got dumped by your boyfriend a few months ago!" Claire mocked. "As you know, I normally wouldn't bring up old news like this but I was shocked when I found out that a freak like you could get a date!"

"No! We both decided to split up. How did you find out about that anyway?"

"Well, Kate told me. Kate tells me about all of her boyfriend's ex's!"

"Kate. Kate's is dating Ronnie?"

"Yea! I was sure you knew! Oh well, now you do!" Claire pranced off in her mini skirt cheerleading outfit.

Kate swung the doors open and headed to her locker.

"Kate, are you dating Ronnie Creston?"

"As a matter of fact, I am. He told me to say hi to you for him."

"Oh." Lizzie had a horrified look on her face.

"Look at this beautiful ring he gave me!"

Lizzie looked closely at the word f-o-r-e-v-e-r engraved on the side.

"Oh my god!"

"I know, isn't he just a sweetheart?" Kate smirked and walked away.

Lizzie rushed over to Miranda in tears.

"Miranda, we have to go. I need to talk to you."

"Lizzie, I can't ditch with you today. I have a math and an English test! I so can't miss it!"

"Kate is dating Ronnie!" Lizzie whispered in Miranda's ear.

"WHAT?" Miranda practically screamed.

"Keep it down."

"Sorry."

"Claire and Kate are both throwing that little fact in my face."

"What are we going to do?"

"I don't know! That's why I really wanted to talk to you about it."

"Okay, meet me at my locker after 3rd period. We can go then!"

"Okay, see you then!"

A/N: Starting out slow but it will get better. And KATE AND LIZZIE are the two main characters. This is just how I have to start it off.
