Disclaimer: Have you not been paying attention for the past 24 chapters?
A/N: It's the chapter you people have been waiting, and BEGGING for! LOL. This chap is going to have a song written through out it, using [ ] ( those thingies. The song is Mandy Moore, 'When I Talk To You'.
I Think I Love You
The rain poured on Lizzie's face. Her heart pounded, as she watched Gordo in anticipation. He was wringing his hands in front of him. "Oh please, oh please," Lizzie thought, begging with her conscience. Gordo began pacing. A nerve struck Lizzie in her heart. Not good, very not good.
"I don't know anymore, Lizzie. I don't know when it comes to you," he said flatly, staring her dead on, the rain splashing his creamy skin. Lizzie looked in horror.
"What don't you know?" She almost cried out. She blinked back the tears, which were pouring down her face, although the immense rain was masking them.
Gordo sighed through his nose. He looked at her. "I need to know what happened to you. You changed this year, Lizzie."
[Remember me
Feels like forever
Since the days
When we were friends
I don't understand
All these changes
I'm still the same
No need to pretend]
"I haven't changed, Gordo. I'm still the same," Lizzie said, bewildered by her friends comments.
"What made you act the way you did this September? Why did you act so different around me?" Gordo was looking at her, like an adult would a small child, enable to comprehend.
Lizzie shuffled her feet around in the puddle she was standing in. She sighed heavily. Could she tell him the truth? After everything, could she?
[Where'd it go?
Do you know?
Maybe it just doesn't matter]
"I couldn't stand you being with someone," she said quietly, to her feet. "Especially someone other than me." Gordo looked at her, an eyebrow raised. She took that as a reason to go on. "I had a gut feeling we were meant to be, you know. Like a gut instinct. You have to follow it, so I followed what my heart told me to do."
"And that was..."
"I tried to break you and Julia up, by um, trying to get you to cheat on her," Lizzie said, quieter than ever. Gordo's eyes blazed at her.
"You what?!?" he spat. She looked at him, tears streaming continuously down her face.
"I didn't know what else to do, Gord-"
"Couldn't you have told me? You know, NOT try to ruin my LIFE?" He yelled, unnecessarily loudly.
['Cause when I try to talk to you
I feel like I'm not getting through to you
Where did we go wrong
It's hard to be strong
When I talk
When I talk to you]
Lizzie's heart was wrenching apart. He wasn't even listening to her. He never would, she had realized that. The vein in his neck was throbbing, and his face was red, and wet with rain.
"Don't you understand, Gordo?" she said louder, with more confidence. He looked up at her, his eyes set in sharp icy gray slits. "I didn't want to loose you! You have been my best friend forever. I felt I was loosing the first person I have ever lost to a girl you had known for a month! I didn't want to loose the most important thing in my life! I need you here, Gordo. I'm nothing without you," she said to him, her voice rising, as she choked out sobs. "I couldn't bear losing you."
"You already have," he spat.
[There were times
In the beginning
When you were there
When I needed you most
We'd sit and talk
About the future
And laugh about
Us getting old
Do you know
How it feels
I hope that you know that it matters]

Gordo watched as Lizzie turned into an emotional wreck. It wasn't his fault she screwed up her life. "She tried to ruin mine," he thought. She was crouched over on the ground, hugging her knees to her chest. She stood up, and hugged her arms around her body.
He watched her in utter-disgust. "I wouldn't call any of those actions heart-felt," he spat, narrowing his glare to hers. Her face scrunched up in pain.
"How would you know, Gordo?" she cried out.
"You think watching my best friend get abused by the school's biggest ass is a thing I love to watch?" he screeched at her. His head was exploding, he couldn't hold back now. "That's not too attractive!"
"I'm so sorry. Maybe I should have asked my mom to just drown me at birth! Maybe that would be a better convenience to you!" she screamed, turning around. She couldn't face him, not now. She was so confused, and he was confused by her confusion.
[But when I try to talk to you
I feel like I'm not getting through to you
Where did we go wrong
It's hard to be strong
When I talk to you
I want you to know everything that I am
Don't want to know what life would be without you]
Despite Lizzie's depression, Gordo felt the need to go on. "Do you think having my heart ripped out when I saw you kiss, no, maul a guy you hardly know in an elevator? How is that supposed to make me feel? Warm inside? More like death. I felt you had given up on me. So I gave up on you," he said softly. His eyes were burning. Tears brimmed them, but dared not to escape. He watched as Lizzie turned around slowly. A look of fear plastered on her face.

"You saw that?" She asked softly. Gordo had small tears running down his face by this time. "Yes."
"Gordo, I'm sorry if it hurt you. It meant nothing," Lizzie said. Gordo's head shot up.
"Didn't look like nothing," he said, sarcasm dripping from his voice.
"Want to know why? I thought it was...I thought it was you, OK? I went out with Will in attempt to get over you, because you hated me. Remember? You. Hated. Me. Not the other way around. I could never be the one hating you. You hated me. And you still do!"
Gordo took a daring step forward. Through the rain, he could see the tears dripping off Lizzie's face. She looked beautiful, angelic, even. "I never hated you, Lizzie. I was confused. I never hated you," she stated again.
"But you certainly didn't show it," Lizzie said quickly.
Before Lizzie could finish, a swirl of emotions trapped her in a tight kiss. Gordo's lips forced themselves onto hers, embracing her in a sweet, soft, yet passionate kiss. They kissed in the rain, expressing their true emotions. It could have been minutes, it could have been hours. But it only mattered that they were there together.
