Again. it is obvious that I do not own Lizzie McGuire or anything that involves Ren-Mar
Studios.This chapter happens during graduation-obviously. It is interesting. Most of the POV
space is taken up by Gordo, because he doesn't get enough screen time for his adorable face!!
Do you love that face? I do! Anyway, R&R!!!Oh yeah! You long chapter loving people, I'll try to
make this a long chapter!

Chapter 5: Ordeals During Graduation
*****
(Gordo)
The entire class was adorned in graduation suits. I looked around, everyone talking to
everyone else about where they were going, and what the were doing. No one was talking to me.
After Thursday(A/N today is Friday) everyone knew. Every person in the graduating class of 2007
knew I was a sick perverted loser.I sighed, and thought, what if Lizzie decides to not go to
college with me? That is never a good thing. Then we heard the music, we went into the
gymnasium prepared to get our diplomas.
After the first hour of the ceremony, every person felt bored and annoyed. All of us
were itching to get our diplomas and leave for about thirty different after-parties.At most
which the football team would drink 'til they barfed or lost it.I personally wanted to go home,
and have a talk with myself.
"Now," started principal Jones," I would like to say the winners of class favorites."
Most of us woke up then. I noticed Lizzie sitting on the edge of her seat, eager to know who
was what. "Our first favorite is favorite dance. Winner-Spring Fling. Our second, favorite prom
couple- Elizabeth McGuire and David Gordon..."
(Lizzie)
No, I thought,I cannot win an award with a loser her tried to rape me. Hello? Why would
they vote for us. Though, prom was a fun dance. I remember it all like it was yesturday. The
decorations in the gym, the first slow song, the punch getting spiked-everything. The most
memorable moment-when Gordo and I won Prom princess and prince. That was the second honor in
the prom.We got to dance the slow song with the king and queen- Ethan and Kate. That was
hilarious- kate stepped on Ethan's foot, then Ethan jumped into the punch bowl. It was the best
dance I ever went to.
" The third, favorite couple all year- Kate Saunders(I've never had it established as
Sanders or Saunders. Have you?) and Ethan Craft. And our fourth favorite, best student- tied
for Brooke Baker and David Gordon."
(Gordo)
Favorite student? They probably gave me that out of sympathy. What is this world coming
to, I thought.After listening to how much our professors will miss us, they finally got to the
diplomas."David Zephyr Gordon. Mr. Gordon is in the Future Directors of America club, the
Honors Society, and on the varsity basketball team. This evening, he has recieved the honor of
Valedictorian, Tied for Best Student, and half of the Best Prom Couple with Elizabeth McGuire."
After twelve more names, "Elizabeth Brooke McGuire. Miss McGuire is in Glee Club and Secratary
of her senior class. She has recieved the honors of Saludictorian and half of the Best Prom
couple with David Gordon." Someone had taken her seat when she stood up, and the only available
seat was next to me. She gave me a look, and sat down, not looking at me.
"Lizzie? Listen, I am sorry. There was no excuse for how I behaved last week. I am a
loseer for making you lose my trust like this. You are my best friend,and I am not worhty of
your friendship.I am a freak, and if you don't want me to go to UCLA, I will go to Harvard. I'd
do anything to make your life livable." She had obviously been listening, for she looked at me
with tear stained eyes.
"Go back in time, and stop yourself from being a loser, Gordo. That is what I want. I
also want a friend whom I trust, the one I sleep on when on a plane ride, the one I could kiss
everyday if I didn't think he would try to hurt me," she said with more tears welling up.
"I didn't mean to hurt you. I am just a loser for thinking I was worthy of your
presence, when I am not even good enough to be trusted. I don't deserve your touch."
" You're right, you don't deserve me. I'm just willing to let you take me anyway," she
said and kissed my forehead.
"I give you the class of 2007." we all stood up, well, except myself and Lizzie. We
were sitting, our fingers laced, with eyes of adoration looking at each other.
