A\N-Thank you for the reviews! I just corrected a major spelling error in the sixth chapter. The Last paragraph now says the correct thing, as apposed to "He knew Lizzie was kidding something" I missed that. I do not own Lizzie.



Chapter Seven

~Gordo's House~

The next day, Gordo decided he would get to the bottom of whatever was going on with Lizzie. Who was that in the picture Miranda gave her? Why did she want to stop kissing him after the phone call? Why was she in such a big hurry to get home? Who was she talking to on her cell phone in his car? Why is Matt at her house so much? He had so many questions that he wanted answered. He decided he would call around to see if he could gather any clues.

One might wonder what was going through his head while he was wondering all these things. Gordo thought that Lizzie had a boyfriend that she was trying to hide from him. He didn't know what to make of this because she is the one that wanted to be just friends, but at the same time, she did kiss him back. How would Miranda have a picture of Lizzie's boyfriend as a baby though? Were they really that serious?

~Lizzie's House~

Lizzie: Happy Birthday, Jeremy!

Jo: Wow! How old are you?

Jeremy held up three fingers.

Sam: That sure is a big number!

That is basically how the whole morning went. Lizzie decided she was going to spend the entire day with Jeremy, doing whatever he wanted to do. Jeremy wanted to go to the park, so that is where they went.

Lizzie: Mom, we are off to the park! I am turning my cell phone off and leaving it here, so don't try to call me.

Jo: Okay, hon. Have fun. Dinner is going to be a special birthday dinner.

Lizzie: Okay, we will be there! Bye!

Lizzie and Jeremy left for the day. Before they went to the park, Lizzie took Jeremy to get some lunch (it was lunchtime) at McDonalds. They headed for the park in Jo's car, which she let them borrow.

~Gordo~

"Who would know what is wrong with Lizzie?" Gordo thought. He decided he would try to call Matt.

No one picked up and the answering machine picked up.

He called Miranda next.

Josh: Hello?

Gordo: Hey. This is Gordo; May I please speak to Miranda?

Josh: Hold on.

Miranda: Hey, Gordo.

Gordo: Hey, Miranda. I know this is a stupid question, but is there something about Lizzie that I should know?

Miranda was silent.

Miranda: What do you mean?

Gordo: I mean, does she have a boyfriend or is something going on that she doesn't want me to know?

Miranda: Um, no.not that I know about.

Gordo: Are you sure?

Miranda: Yep. Why?

Gordo: Nothing, things just seem weird.

Miranda: Oh, sorry. Have you talked to Lizzie today?

Gordo: No. Her cell phone will not pick up. Thank you anyway! Bye!

Miranda: Bye!

Darn. Miranda seemed to be hiding something too. Gordo decided to downstairs for something to eat. When he got to the kitchen, his father was there.

Mr. Gordon: Hello. Oh, uh Gordo. Do you know anyone by the name of Jeremy?

Gordo thought for a minute.

Gordo: No. Why?

Mr. Gordon: I was cleaning out my car and I saw this on the floor on the passenger side.

Mr. Gordon pointed to the counter, and on the counter, there was an envelope that had the name "Jeremy" written on it. Gordo recognized the handwriting as Miranda. Gordo took the card.

Gordo: Thanks, dad!

Gordo went upstairs with the envelope. It must have fallen out of the present. "This must be the boyfriend," he thought. "I have to talk to Lizzie now."

Gordo decided to call the McGuire home, and not say who he was.

Jo: Hello?

Gordo: May I please speak to Lizzie?

He tried to sound rather urgent.

Jo: She is not here right now. May I leave a message?

Gordo: This is rather urgent; do you mind telling me where she is?

Jo: Is everything okay? Who is this?

Gordo thought. Maybe Mrs. McGuire was going to lie to Gordo is she knew it was him.

Gordo: Everything is fine. This is a friend of hers, and I want to give her something.

Jo: Oh. Well this afternoon, she went to the park.

Gordo: Thank you. Bye!

Gordo hung up. He had to go to the park. He had to talk to Lizzie and ask her what is going on and about Jeremy.

Gordo ran downstairs and asked his dad if he could borrow his car, and Mr. Gordon said he could. He ran to the car, and got inside. He was going to the park. He had no other choice.

When Gordo reached the park, he got out of his car, and started to search for Lizzie. After twenty minutes, he finally saw her sitting on a bench alone, reading a book near the playground. He slowly approached her.

Gordo: Lizzie, we need to talk.



A/N-He-he a cliffhanger. I am in the process of writing chapter eight, and it should be up by tomorrow definitely if not by tonight. Read and review.
