Disclaimer: I do not own Lizzie McGuire or any of the characters from the show. Disney does, whoop whoop for them. Don't sue me.

Note: I know that Lizzie kissed that one dude, but let's just ignore that for the sake of the story, k? LoL

Lizzie finished fixing her hair, tying the blonde strands into a floppy bun on the top of her head. Loose locks hung down on the sides. She put on a layer of lip gloss, then took her bangles from their case. She had just finished sliding them onto her wrist when the phone rang.

She checked the caller id, then answered "Hey Gordo."

"Lizzie? Bad news. Miranda can't make it," Gordo said.

"Why not?" Lizzie asked.

"I'm not sure. Something about her parents dragging her to her cousins' house or something. I could barely hear her. There were some kids screaming in Spanish," Gordo said. "Still wanna go to the movies?"

"Yeah, I guess so. Miranda didn't really want to watch the movie anyways," Lizzie said. "See ya there in 15 minutes!"

"Be good," Lizzie's mom instructed as she let her daughter out of the car in front of the theater.

"Yes mom," Lizzie rolled her eyes with a smile. "Love you," she leaned back into the car for a hug before climbing out and closing the door.

"Lizzie!" Gordo called. He was standing in line already, waiting to buy tickets.

"Hi!" Lizzie greeted as she joined him. She got out some money for the movie. "Two for 'Night of the Bloody Corpses' please," she put her money on the counter as she asked the seller for the tickets. Gordo put his money next to hers.

"Here you go," the old man took the money and gave them their tickets.

"I can't believe this movie is only PG-13! It looks so scary from the commercials!" Lizzie exclaimed. They went through the concession stand line, deciding to split a bag of popcorn and a cup of Sprite.

"Come on, the previews are starting," Gordo whispered. Their theater was already dark, and they had trouble seeing where they were going. Gordo reached back and grabbed Lizzie's wrist, making sure they stayed together as he led her down to the center rows. They sat down in two empty seats.

The movie was horrifying. Bloody bodies of the deceased jumped out of nowhere, chasing the teenage boy and girl in the movie. Lizzie tried to remain calm, but she gripped the arms of her chair in terror.

At one point half way through the movie, three headless corpses leaped out and grabbed the couple on screen. Lizzie let out a squeal and without thinking, shielded her eyes with Gordo's shoulder. Gordo chuckled, but wrapped his arm around her.

Lizzie was ashamed of herself. She couldn't understand why she was so freaked out! But she didn't pull out of Gordo's grasp. It was comfortable, and seemed natural. Not to mention it made the movie seem less scary.

"Wow, you smell like…" Gordo whispered, then inhaled again. "Flowers and coconuts."

Lizzie smiled, then nodded.

The movie ended with the teenage couple banishing the corpses back to their graves. They stood beside the cemetery, covered with dirt and blood, but in the perfect Hollywood ending, began to kiss passionately.

Lizzie suddenly became very aware of Gordo's closeness. She gulped down a swig of soda, using the movement as an attempt to distance herself from him.

"What's wrong?" Gordo asked.

"Oh nothing," Lizzie mumbled, and stopped fidgeting. The couple on screen were still kissing.

"Have you ever kissed anyone?" Gordo whispered, but his eyes continued to look forward.

Lizzie turned in surprise. "No, you?" she asked.

Gordo shook his head no. "I don't think I'd even know what to do."

"Me neither," Lizzie replied.

"Are we too good of friends to ever be boyfriend and girlfriend?" Gordo asked. The credits were rolling now, and everyone was filing out of the theater except for them.

"I don't know," Lizzie said with a smile. She played with her bangle bracelet. "I used to like you."

"I used to like you too," Gordo laughed. "So what happened?"

"I don't know. I guess we'll never know," Lizzie said. She turned to look at Gordo. They didn't talk for a second, just looked at each other. The theater was empty now.

"Lizzie, can I kiss you?' Gordo asked quietly.

Lizzie tried to hide her shock by coughing. "Are you serious?" she asked.

"100% serious," Gordo replied.

"Yes," Lizzie said.

Gordo raised his hand to her chin. He leaned in and she closed her eyes. His lips met hers, brushing them softly. He closed his eyes then too, and his lips met hers again, harder this time, and longer.

After a few seconds they parted. Lizzie slowly opened her eyes and saw Gordo smiling at her. She smiled back and stood up.

"Wanna get some ice cream?" Gordo asked, standing up too.

"Sure," Lizzie answered. They started to walk up the aisle towards the exit. "And Gordo don't tell Miranda about this."

Note: Technically that is the end. Should I write more though? I could take the story further if I wanted to. Tell me what you think please!
