Thanks to those who are waiting for my updates! It's really flattering. Here it is guys! Chapters 3 and 4 are now up! To VaSinFlor-you can do it! English is quite and easy language to learn. English is not my native tongue actually, it's the second language here in our country (Trivia: Lalaine and I are of the same heritage and nationality.) Almost all people speak English here. Good luck! (

Lizzie sat on the couch with Gordo. They were talking and catching up on each other's lives. Gordo told her about meeting Steven Spielberg and shaking hands with Pedro Almodovar. He told her about dating here and there to no avail after breaking up with Pam, his girlfriend for 9 months. Lizzie never met Pam and she heard not a lot from Gordo about her. She just knew that they met through Gordo's producer friend, Pam was a costume designer and that they broke up because the love faded just as Gordo informed her before when she asked him.

"Gordo, I admit, your fettuccine was to die for!" she exclaimed.

"Thank you! Thank you very much! Yeah well! What can I say?!?!" he bragged.

Lizzie laughed. She suddenly hears the front door open. Must be Miranda. She thought. "Lizzie!!!!! Where are you?" Miranda shouted. Gordo, upon hearing Miranda's voice stood up and went up to her. Lizzie followed Gordo to meet Miranda.

"OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU"RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HERE JUST YET!!!!!!!" Miranda exclaimed, her eyes round. She was pointing her index finger at him, obviously surprised seeing Gordo right infront of her. Gordo was laughing hysterically as he gave the shocked Miranda a big, tight hug.

Lizzie interrupted. "So here we are again, amigos. Reunited and it feels so good" she began to sang.

"Lizzie...." both Miranda and Gordo groaned. They all laughed. It was like the old times when the three of them hung out and watch movies at Lizzie's house. It really felt good and sentimental at the same time because the last time they were gonna hang out with the single Miranda.

"So. what are we gonna do?" Miranda asked.

"I know let's watch movies!!! Let's relive the old times!!!" Gordo suggested his face brightened.

"Ditto!!!" Lizzie agreed. "I'm gonna get the DVDs and set it up." Lizzie then went to the compartment where she and Miranda were keeping their collection of DVDs. She then hears Miranda and Gordo laughing and catching up while preparing microwave popcorn and chips. It was great spending this long overdue reunion after almost a year. Both of them missed Gordo so much, they especially his philosophical, realistic views about everything and of course the way he encourages them. she picked the whole drawer where the DVDs were and sat on the couch. She waited for Miranda and Gordo to sit down and choose the movie they were gonna watch.

Gordo and Miranda sat on either side of Lizzie. Gordo as usual was the first to munch on the popcorn. Miranda then scanned some DVDs.

"So what are we gonna watch?" Lizzie asked them both. She dunked her hand on the popcorn bowl and shoved it to her mouth.

"I know! Let's watch My Best Friend's Wedding!!!" Miranda suggested with her brown eyes twinkling with excitement.

"Oh, no! not another chick flick!!!!!!" Gordo groaned. Miranda and Lizzie looked at each other. they expected him to react that way as he always did. They just knew what to do to make him watch the movie they want. Lizzie grinned mischievously, trying hard not to giggle.

Miranda stuck her tongue out to him. "Ok, so we're gonna have a consensus. Who's for my best friend's wedding?" Miranda asked. She and Lizzie both automatically shot their hands up.

Gordo upon seeing this, groaned. "The price I have to pay for having two friends who are girls. I'm always outnumbered especially with this!!" he protested.

"I'm sorry Gordo. Majority wins. Besides, you went through this everytime we watched movies back then. How is this time any different?" Lizzie replied. Miranda nodded in agreement. Lizzie giggled, the tried and tested formula to make Gordo watch a chick flick worked!

Gordo crossed his arms and put both his legs on top of the ottoman. He sighed. "I guess, fine let's watch Julia Roberts for the NTH TIME!" he stressed jokingly. They all laughed and Miranda pressed the play button ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- Lizzie was sitting in her chair at her office downtown. She was scanning templates and proposals from her staff. Jake was in San Francisco attending an advertising congress with the big boss, the company's CEO Mr. Edward Johnson. She left a message on his cellphone to call her since Miranda's wedding is in three days and she has to know when his flight is, so she can fetch him at the airport. She wanted to show him how much she cares and loves him. she wanted him to realize that she, Lizzie McGuire was what he's looking for a wife.

The phone rang and Lizzie almost displaced everything from her desk from her excitement. She knew it was Jake who's calling.

"Hello?" she said sweetly.

"Hey hon!" Jake greeted her on the other line.

"Hey baby! How's San Fran?" she said. She smiled and thought about him. she was lucky. Any girl would want to be in her place.

"it's nice in here actually. You should go here sometime." He said.

You? Should he mean We should go here sometime? She thought.

"Oh.." Lizzie tried to hide the disappointment in her voice. "Right.. So when are you coming back for Miranda's wedding?" Lizzie asked him and crossed her fingers behind her for luck.

"Oh." his voice toned down a few notches more. Silence. "Umm.. that's what I was gonna tell you about. You see.Mr. Johnson planned to stay for three days more and he wanted me to accompany him to meet new clients. So.." he trailed off.

"You're not going to make it to Miranda's wedding?" Lizzie completed the sentence for him. her voice was clearly irritated. She had plans!! She wanted to show him that she cares! He might even realize that he wants to marry her when he sees how happy Tudge and Miranda were and would do the same for both of them. Before she knew it she already felt tears streaming down her cheeks.

"I'm sorry Liz, you know I can't back out now. Mr. Johnson's counting on me. I'm really sorry baby." He explained. "Tell Miranda I'm sorry that I couldn't make it and I wish her and Larry the best." He said.

Silence. Lizzie couldn't talk, she didn't want him to know she was crying. She holds her phone away from her, wiped her tears and breathed heavily.

"Baby are you mad?" she heard him say.

"No.. no I'm fine.. Sorry for that. Nancy just came in and talked to me about something. Don't worry I'll tell Miranda and Larry." she lied through her fake cheery voice.

"Oh ok." He said. She heard voices in the background, clearly Mr. Johnson's, telling Jake about something. "Anyway, that's Mr. Johnson calling, talk to you later ok? Love you" he said softly.

"Love you.." she said softly as she pushed the end button. She sat on her chair and cried silently.
