It was the day for the premier of Romeo and Juliet. Lizzie awoke ready for a good day at school now that she's got Jake off her back.

Lizzie's mom ran up to Lizzie, "Elizabeth McGuire! What is this I hear about you quitting the role as Juliet in Romeo and Juliet? I thought that you were just so excited about it since Casey or Carrie or whatever gave the part to you!" "Mom. Mom calm down. I didn't give up the part. I am still Juliet and you will be able to see me perform and give the last bow." Lizzie curtsied her pajama's top and walked downstairs.

Lizzie saw Matt sulking on the kitchen counter. "Matt, now what's wrong. Wait I don't want to know, my life is perfect and I don't want your problems to ruin it." Lizzie smiled and took her seat next to Matt. Matt turned his body to Lizzie's direction, "I called Malina and she's completely over me. I guess I have to move on." "Matt don't move on. Malina is the girl for you and you are the guy for him." I can't believe I'm talking to Matt as if I'm his mom. "Don't give up. Just give her time and don't fall for anyone else. Trust me, that just makes it worse." "Ok, I guess." Matt took a deep breath and continued to sulk.

Lizzie cheerfully got dressed and went off to school. There she saw Jake waiting for her at the door of Mr. Diggs class. "Lizzie, it's so good to see you." Jake lunged into a hug. "Jake I saw you yesterday." "I know. You made me realize something." Jake still had his muscular arms around her and looking into Lizzie's eyes. Lizzie was looking back into his smiling," What did I help you realize?" "Well, it's hard for me to say. But now I know that I cared for you." "I don't understand." Lizzie said still smiling. "Well, it wasn't you that I liked. I was showing you the love I had for Cameron. You see, that night you were at my house and in my room, you reminded me so much of Cameron. Cameron was always talking to me saying things like…" "Saying things like what?" "This may sound stupid, but since we were in junior high she always told me that…" "Tell me!" "Promise not to laugh?" Lizzie kissed Jake on the cheek, "I promise." "She told me she wanted to marry me and have my baby." Lizzie busted into laughing.

"You told me you wouldn't laugh." "Sorry, it's just I can't imagine her saying that. She's so mature and smart." "She wasn't always like that. She used to be a funny and crazy person. She changed when she started high school." "Do you miss her?" "Yeah, you reminded me of her. That's why I did what I did." Lizzie's mouth dropped, "You were going to…" "Sorry." Lizzie's cheeks turned pink, "No don't be. I understand that you were also caught in the moment." "You weren't were you?" "Um, just a little." "I didn't mean to hurt you." "I know. Friends?" Lizzie steeped back out of Jake's arms and held out her hand. Jake grabbed her hand gently, "Friends."

Lizzie let go of his hand, "I better go. I need to meet someone." "Alright." Lizzie made her way to Austin. She spotted him by his locker reading a book. Lizzie jumped beside him with a large smile one her face revealing her white teeth. "Hi Austin." As Austin turned his head and saw Lizzie, he quickly put his book away, "Lizzie I'm so glad to see you." "Yeah me too." Lizzie gave Austin a hug.

From down the hall where Lizzie and Austin were Gordo was standing by the wall curiously watching.

Lizzie released Austin from her tight grip, "Ok, I know that we hadn't know each other more then a day. But I know that…" "Lizzie you don't have to say anymore." Austin leaned in to Lizzie and started kissing her. Gordo watched in shock from down the hall. As Austin and Lizzie departed waving Gordo decided that he must go and talk to Austin.

Gordo walked to Austin as Lizzie disappeared. Gordo leaned on the locked next to Austin's, "So are you and Lizzie together?" "Gordo I know how much you really like her." "That's not what I was asking." "Yeah, we are." "Just be really nice to her, she can get emotional." "I know. Gordo she's your friend and not your daughter." "Can't you just leave her alone?" "I…" "I know you like her. I wish I never introduced her to you." "Just because she likes me doesn't mean you need to be jealous!" Austin started to raise his voice. "I am not jealous!" "Then stop telling what I can and can't do1" Austin shut his locker and walked to homeroom to get started on his second movie project.
