Author's notes…

This is for Leby2001 since she wants another part so bad ( thanks for the idea Leby2001 & sorry for taking so long! I don't own Lizzie Mcguire, never will or Gordo would be the main character & it'd be on every day, become a soap opera, etc, etc… ( R+R please!!! This time I couldn't think of a song to set it to, sorry!

Okay so maybe it would have been consider spying but I mean all I really did was happen to end up next to the two's table that was hidden by the trees while I hid behind bushes & a book- oh what the hell I was spying. I watched, hidden by the Nancy Drew book that I held in front of me, as I listened to the harsh exchanges between the two.

"-for crying out loud, you won't even look at me when I talk!"

"Look Mcguire, I thought you were smart enough to figure it out, I don't want or need you as a friend. Obviously I gave you two too much credit, trying to get you two to figure it out on your own. Guess you two really are just two squealing bimbos, in your case, a squealing blonde bimbo." He said with his arms crossed looking bored. I glared at him & held the book so hard that my knuckles turned white, 'How dare he speak of us in such a way.' I was at the point where was ready to throttle him but I managed to restrain myself all while thinking of pleasurable ways to mutate & murder him.

"Get lost Mcguire, you're pathetic." He said arrogantly dismissing her & narrowed his eyes seeing she didn't budge, "What? Do I need to spell it out for you? Wait, I forgot, you bimbo's probably don't read." 'Oh god that arrogant little baste-'

*crack* my thoughts were interrupted

I gapped from above the book, Lizzie slapped him across the face with such force it snapped his head the other way. He stared at her, his eyes widened in shock & lifted a hand to his stinging cheek, she stared back her eyes glistening with unshed tears, "I thought maybe that you were still the boy I had known and loved since I was one, but you aren't and you'll never be again" she whispered in a rough clogged voice & turned & fled.

I got up furious, knocking over the chair in the progress ready to go give the moron a piece of my mind when I saw him… crying. I wasn't sure what to do, I was all for hating him earlier but now, I'm not sure what to do.

"David?" He snapped to attention & stared at me expressionless.

"What do you want?" He asked monotone

"Why'd you just do that?" I asked

"Do what? I didn't do anything, I just told her the plain cold hard truth." He said his voice rough & cold.

"You just rejected Lizzie for no good reason & then you have the nerve to cry!" My anger was returning, "How dare you break Lizzie's heart & then CRY. Make yourself look like the good guy!!" I raised my hand slightly & tried to slap him across the face, I watched him almost as in slow motion as he closed his eyes half way but didn't try to stop me, his hands by his sides his head hanging as in defeat. I stopped my hand a mere inch from his face & then caressed his cheek that was still tinged with pink from Lizzie blow. His eyes widened in surprise, questioning my quick change in action.

I sighed, "Gordo & you're suppose to be the genius." I shook my head.

"Don't tell Lizzie." He said simply holding the hand that continued to caress his cheek.

"How are you going to stop me?" I asked moving closer

"You don't want to have to compete with me for friendship do you? To have to work for Lizzie to notice you as her best friend instead of the both us. Don't you like being the one she runs to when in need instead of hearing it second?" he asked leaning so close his breath on my face, I breathed in deep. 'He's so close' "Yes." I felt myself whisper truthfully. I use to be so angry back then, the fact that Lizzie always ran to Gordo instead of me, that was the third wheel in the friendship. Even guys Gordo's passed me on, he was the expert. He dated, he was a guy so he knew what he liked. I began to hate him yet in a way fall for him. I hated him because of the way he stole Lizzie's friendship but I fell in love with those intense eyes. But he was Lizzie's.

"Then this is your chance. Don't waste it." He let go & was about walk away but I grabbed his arm jerked him roughly back, "Gordo, you can't run from us forever." I hissed into his ear.

"Wanna bet?" he asked without skipping a beat. He jerked out of my grip, turned & ran down the street fading away into the orange sunset.

I watched his retreating form, as one question ran though my mind, 'Should I tell Lizzie?'
