AN/ Hey, Everybody! I hope that you enjoy reading this story. It takes place as a continuation to The Lizzie McGuire Movie. It picks up two days after the kiss on the balcony at the end of the movie. This story is co-written by Oy-with-the-poodles and Mountaineer/TookieClothespin. Enjoy! =D

Lizzie stood on her balcony overlooking the Roman streets.

 She had been in the midst of packing to head home, when she had felt the urge to go outside for a last look around at the beautiful scenery outside her room.

Kate had long since finished her packing, and had left to go have lunch with Ethan.

But, for some unknown reason, Lizzie hadn't felt like packing until the very last possible moment.

Maybe, it was because she finally felt like she fit in somewhere, but part of her yearned to leave because she would be leaving Paolo and his lies behind.

Also, Gordo was going home too. Their kiss had been two days ago and he hadn't said anything about it. She wondered what the plane ride home would be like.

"Probably awkward." Lizzie mused out loud.

"What's awkward?" Kate asked from just behind Lizzie.

Lizzie jumped back and bumped into Kate.

"Ow!" Kate declared. "You broke my nail!"

"Sorry. You startled me." Lizzie said as she turned around to face Kate.

But, instead of Kate's usual snarl, she just shrugged and half smiled. "That's okay. Sorry I startled you. It was an old manicure anyway."

Lizzie looked confused for a moment, but then smiled.

Toon Lizzie:

Kate's new attitude is going to take some time to get used to.

"How was your lunch date with Ethan?" Lizzie questioned as she placed a pile of shirts into her black suitcase, which sat on the end of her bed.

"We had spaghetti and it was fantastic! Ethan and I are officially back together!" Kate exclaimed.

"That's great, Kate! I'm really happy for you and Ethan." Lizzie said with a grin.

"Wait a minute! What's wrong with you? I thought that you liked Ethan." Kate said, eyeing Lizzie suspiciously.

"Ethan was right. We don't have any chemistry. We're just friends." Lizzie replied.

Kate glanced at Lizzie's half-packed suitcase, "Why aren't you packed yet? We're leaving today."

Lizzie shrugged. "I just didn't feel like packing before."

"Okay. I'm going back out to have Gelato with Ethan. I just came back to get my sunglasses."

"Okay. I'm gonna stay here and finish packing." Lizzie said.

Kate grabbed her sunglasses off her nightstand, and with a wave of her fingers, she strolled out of the room.

Twenty minutes later, Lizzie was just zipping up her suitcase, when she heard a knock at the door.

Looking out the peephole, Lizzie spotted Isabella standing on the other side.

"Lizzie, how nice to see you again!" Isabella exclaimed in her thick Italian accent, when Lizzie opened the door.


Lizzie smiled, opening the door wider, and gesturing for Isabella to come in.

"What's up?" Lizzie asked.

Isabella took a seat on one of the plush chairs and grinned, "I have business to discuss with you."

Lizzie wrinkled her nose in confusion, and took a seat opposite Isabella, "Okay."

"My record label has seen your performance, and would like to give you a record deal, but you would have to move to Rome."

"Seriously?" Lizzie gasped.

"Seriously." Isabella chuckled.

"Isabella, I don't know. I have my life back home to think about." Lizzie said, as Isabella's words started to fully sink in.

"I tell you what," Isabella said, "you go home and think about it and give me a call with your decision. You have my number. And if you don't, Gordo does." Isabella smiled and stood up to leave.

Lizzie was to stunned to answer, and Isabella didn't wait for one. With a smile she left, closing the door behind her.

Lizzie hurried over to the door, bolted it, and then sat back down in a chair.

Lizzie's POV:

I have a lot of thinking to do!
