I'm so sorry. I haven't been able to update in weeks. First I had to go on a 2 weeklong trip. Then I was too busy doing stuff with my friend, Julie. Well, enjoy....

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Lizzie had driven on that same road hundreds of times, but tonight it was different. Tonight she was going to meet the man that she had fantasized about as a child. Tonight was going to change her life. Gordo was her man. The key word was, Lizzie thought to herself. He isn't any more. I wouldn't even be surprised if he is married and has kids. Kids, Lizzie thought. Small tears fell down her face. Just the thought of Gordo having kids put Lizzie in an emotional state of being.

Lizzie pulled into the school parking lot and looked around. Nothing changed, she thought. The school looked the same as it did 5 years ago.

A tall, average size woman came running up to Lizzie.

"Lizzie McGuire," she called out. "Remember me?" Lizzie stood there hesitantly wondering who this was. "Me, Veruca, you use to walk me to class everyday for a year."

Things clicked in Lizzie's mind. She gave Veruca a hug and said, "You look great. How are you?"

"I'm doing fine. I own a local coffee shop. It's on Main Street. You should stop there if you plan on staying a few days. What about you?"

"I'm doing great. I'm a model. Thanks for asking," Lizzie said. "I need to check on something. See you in a little bit."

"Ok, bye."

"Bye." Lizzie ran up the stares to catch a glimpse of the tall, brown haired man that just walked inside. Her heart had begun to beat fast as she could see more and more of the man.

Lizzie turned around for an instance to try to hide herself. And stood next to David Gordon.

"Hello, Lizzie. I think we have some business we need to settle," Gordo said coldly.

"Um.. Hi, Gordo. Why don't we settle this somewhere else," Lizzie said, trying to keep herself from having a nervous break down all over again. Gordo led her to one of the many classrooms.

"Will this work?" he asked. Before Lizzie could answer, he exclaimed, "Lizzie you left us. You never sent money! You abandoned me and Ava. You left us in the dust."

"Gordo, I'm sorry!" Tears fell down Lizzie's face.

"Lizzie, this isn't like the movies. This is real life. You can't leave and expect me to be ok with it. I wasn't and I'm still not. I had to put my life aside for our daughter, while you went off with the first job you could fined. I put all my dreams aside so I could raise our kid. You did shit."

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry," Lizzie cried.

"It's too late for that." Gordo walked out and slammed the door on Lizzie.

Lizzie lay on the floor crying as the scene played through her mind again and again.
