1:34 P.M.
It's been three days since Lizzie kissed me, and I haven't heard a word from her. I was so happy-but now I don't know what to think. Come to think of it, I don't even know why she did it. Does she like me? Was it a spur of the moment type thing? Is she just blowing me off now? I'm so confused. I could be taking this the wrong way entirely...we are best friend, and best friends can do things like that and have it mean nothing. But it meant something to me...it meant everything to me! That's it, I'm calling her. I can't stand it anymore.
9:12 P.M.
Wow. Again. I'm at a loss for words...I've never felt better before in my life.
I'm jumping the gun, once again. Let me start over.
When I called Lizzie, I didn't really know what I was going to say. She picked up on the third ring, and before she got done saying the word "Hello" I told her that I really needed to talk to her. She said that she wanted to talk to me too. She asked me to meet her at the Digital Bean at two. When I got there, she was waiting for me at a corner table. I slid in across from her, and my breath was taken away.
She looked amazing. There's no words to describe how beautiful she was. She looked up from her cup of whatever it was she was drinking, and her cheeks were flushed pink. I didn't know what else to do but smile, and she smiled back. The first time in my life that I can't have a conversation with Lizzie is best moment I've ever had. Up until then, anyway.
After what seemed like an eternity of just looking at one another, Lizzie was the first one to stammer out a sentence.
"Um..about...about what happened during the picture..."
"Yeah...I've been wondering about that."
"Well, Gordo...I read what you wrote in my yearbook, even though you told me not to. I couldn't resist, you know? Everything you wrote in there went right to my heart, and I couldn't have been happier, because I've been waiting for so long to tell you the same things that you told me. I'm just not really good at telling people things like that, you know?" All of this came out really fast, and I barely caught what she said. When it all sunk in, a smile spread from ear to ear...I was estatic. I couldn't believe it! I never thought she would have felt the same about me...ever. But she does.
Anyway, after she told me all of that, I was speechless, again. I just looked at her, not knowing what else to do. "Gordo, please say something, please!" She looked at me with her beautiful eyes, and somehow I was able to talk again.
"Lizzie...I...I don't know what to say. You have no idea how happy I am, and I'm so glad that you told me!"
"I couldn't keep it in any longer, especially since you let everything out."
"I never thought you'd feel the same way about me..."
"Isn't it great?" She had no idea. I sat there for a moment, just smiling, and then a thought came to my head. What are we now? Are we still Lizzie and Gordo, best friends, or are we Lizzie and Gordo, boyfriend and girlfriend? Apparently she had the same question on her mind, because she said, "Um, Gordo? Are we like...going out now?"
"I don't know, Lizzie. I want us to be together, because I know that we'd be perfect with one another..."
"Yeah, we would."
"So I guess that means that...yeah, I guess we are."
"Good." Lizzie's smile was as big as mine was. We sat there in our little corner table for a long time, not noticing or caring who walked in or out the door. All we saw was each other. After what only seemed like five minutes of just talking, a waitress came over and told us that the D.B. was closing, and we would have to leave. The clock behind Lizzie read 6:00-we'd been there for four hours! I stood up, waiting for Lizzie. As we walked out the door, she reached over and slipped her hand into mine...it was a perfect fit. I never knew that her skin was that soft...Anyway, we walked back to her house, hand in hand. As we turned onto her street, raindrops started falling. We looked up in surprise, then started laughing. Neither one of us had noticed that the sky held the threat of rain. We ran back to her house, stopping before we got onto the porch. I looked over at her, her head tilted back and her arms spread open, eyes closed. The smile she had on her face could rival mine. I don't know what came over me, but I pulled her to me, wrapping my arms around her waist. She opened her eyes and looked into mine, still smiling that same smile. I leaned down towards her and our lips pressed aganist each others...It was amazing. Her arms came around my neck as we stood there, the rain pouring down the both of us, but neither one caring because we were lost in the moment. She giggled, her lips still on mine, then deepend our kiss. It all came so naturally...I've spent so many hours thinking and planning and worrying about my first kiss, and there I am, all those hours gone, only knowing that this was exactly how it was supposed to be.
We pulled away only when her porch light clicked on and her dad stepped onto the front porch. "Lizzie? Is that you and Gordo? You kids come inside or you'll get sick!"
"No thanks, Mr. McGuire, I've got to get home." I turned back to Lizzie, who was blushing bright red and smiling like an idiot. I wrapped her in a hug and kissed her cheek, never wanting to pull away. I had to though. I smiled at her and then turned and started walking down the sidewalk.
"Hey, Gordo?" I turned back to Lizzie, who was still standing in the same spot. "I...I love you."
"I love you too, Lizzie."
[A/N: Awww...that's the end of it folks! I hope you all enjoyed...I'm working on another Lizzie fic, but I'm not going to post it just yet. Go check out the other story I have up though, it's called "You were Mine"-R/R! THANKS EVERYBODY!]
