Chapter 12: The Life and Times

There were no previews for this movie. The first thing Lizzie saw was the title, "The Life and Times.." 'Sounds interesting,' She thought.

The next image surprised Lizzie. She really wasn't expecting to see what she did see. Although, there it was plain as day, a picture of her as a baby, sitting next to Gordo. Now, she understood what this was all about. 'Gordo made a movie of the two of us!' She exclaimed in her head.

Gordo was glad to see her smiling when he glanced down at her. 'Of course she'd like it.'

The next thing to appear was a clip of home video from their childhood. More and more clips and pictures came up of Lizzie and Gordo at their birthdays, playing at the park, riding their bikes, their first day of school, being with each other.

Suddenly, among the pictures and clips, a voice started. It was Gordo's.

"Lizzie, this is for you. I've spent my life by your side, guiding you, helping you, loving you. I've always been there for you as a best friend and now, more. Thank you for being there for me being the girl I've fallen for. I never want to lose you."

"Wow," was Lizzie managed to mutter. She couldn't believe that not only had Gordo made a movie for her, but had actually done a little voice over as well.

She raised her head slightly and looked up at Gordo who was looking at her. Pulling herself up a little more, she placed her hands on his face and started kissing him. She started to move her hands into his curly hair, while he was stroking hers. 'The movie,' Gordo thought, 'Oh, Fuck it.' He decided. 'I'd rather be here kissing Lizzie, feeling her tongue? Nice.' He contemplated as Lizzie started to add her tongue into the mix of the kiss.

'This is amazing. I never fathomed a kiss being this great. Especially a kiss with my best friend. Wait, did he say he loved me in the movie?' Lizzie realized. 'Would that be so bad? What am I saying? Do I really love him?' Lizzie started to think that she was more than head over heels as the old saying went.

Their kiss was momentarily stopped by the sound of static. The movie had finished and Gordo pressed Stop and Rewind. "I guess we'll finish it another time." He said blushing a little.

"Gordo, from what I saw, it was..it was....spectacular." Lizzie finally said.

"Thanks," Gordo replied blushing even more.
"Gordo, how do you feel about me?" Lizzie slowly questioned, not sure how to word her sentence. 'I have to find out if he does love me.'

"What do you mean?' Gordo responded puzzled.

"I mean," Lizzie started, "I..I don't know what I mean. Never mind."

"McGuire, come on," Gordo stated trying to coax it out of her.

"Gordo, really, I want to tell you I do. So much. I just can't yet. Is that OK?"

"Yeah, fine." Gordo responded disappointed that she couldn't open up to him.

Lizzie saw the hurt in his eyes and rethought her decision. 'Maybe if he really knew how I truly felt. Maybe then...' She was cut off by her own voice, "Gordo, I think that I might be falling in love with you." She stammered.

'Was not expecting that,' Gordo thought. "Really?" He muttered.

All Lizzie could do was nod. She was looking at the designs on Gordo's pillows. They were grape vines and some of them intertwined with each other, Lizzie just kept following the lines.

Gordo lifted her chin to look her in eye. She noticed a single tear fall and he wiped it away. "Lizzie, why are scared?"

"I've never felt this way. When we kiss, when you hold me, I feel at home. And when I'm not with you, I can't stand it. It's scary." She started to cry more.

"Shhh. Calm down. Lizzie, I feel the same way. You are my entire world. And I love you." Gordo said sealing his last statement with a gentle kiss.

Lizzie smiled and hugged Gordo again. "Do you realize you've stopped me from crying two times tonight?" She asked slightly laughing.

"I'm just doing my job. I can't let you be sad, ever."

"I won't be anymore." Lizzie reassured him.
"Good to know," Gordo said smiling.

The phone rang. "Hello? Oh, hi." Gordo took the phone away from his mouth, "Lizzie, it's your mom, she wants to know if you're ready to go home."

"Well, not really I don't really want to leave, but I may as well talk to her, it is kind of late."

"Hi, mom. Oh, really? Well, OK. Bye." Lizzie said. "They want me to go home, walk me?"

"Always."

"Great. My parents actually said they had some news for me, I wonder what it could be."

"I'm not sure." Gordo said as he locked his door and started the block walk to Lizzie's house.
