The next week Stephanie and Lizzie ignored Gordo and he kept to him self. The two girls decided to sing and tap dance to the song"We just move on." That was on the Chicago soundtrack.It was lunch time and Lizzie had left Stephanie to go get a diet Coke. Gordo saw a perfect chance and walked up to her.
"Hey." He said sitting down.
"What do YOU want?"She said closing her math book.
"I wanted to know if you were doing anything tonight?"He asked.
"No not with you especaily."She stared him down.
"Me? What did I do?" He asked throwing his hands in the air.
"Lizzie told me all those mean things you said and-"
"Lizzie told you what? I never said anything mean about you!" He interupted.
"Hey guys whats up?" Lizzie asked walking back to her seat.
"Lizzie, we need to talk." Gordo said pulling Lizzie into the school hall way.
*cartoon Lizzie*UhOH!
"She told you what I said didn't she?" Lizzie asked frowning.
"Yes and I'm mad at you." Gordo beamed.
"Well, it's just....I thought I saw a...a...spark between us and I don't know...Gordo....I...Like you ok? Not just lets just be friend like I like you like you!" She yelled it so loud every one in the hall looked at her funny.
"Look your my best friend and if I we ever went out things would change and I dont want them to change. When we broke up, and you know it would happen sooner or later, we might not be friends. I don't want to take the risk." He told her feeling bad. Lizzie was near tears. She sniffled and ran into the girls bathroom.

Not only was Lizzie not speaking to Gordo but Stephanie wasn't speaking to Lizzie.
"Ok I know you're mad but please can we still do the show?" Lizzie asked on the way home.
"Yeah." Stephanie said quietly.
"I'm really sorry. Please just...speak to me or something." Lizzie pleaded.
"Well you lied to me when I trusted and looked up to you."Stephanie said.
"You looked up to ME?" Lizzie asked in shock.
"Yes!"Stephanie yelled.
"Wait,"Lizzie stopped."You are currently more popular than me!"
"No, Kate saw a picture of my friend and is using me. So is every one else just about." Stephanie said.
"But why Gordo?"Lizzie asked.
"Well Gordo's sweet, thoughtfull and he likes me for me." Stephanie said.
"I'm sorry, its just you seemed so perfect and popular. I like Gordo and he dosen't like me like I like him. He likes you. He REALLY likes you." She said."Forgive me?"
"Yes, I know what its like." Stephanie said hugging her cousin.
"I had a major crush on my best friend but he was too old." Stephanie said.
