Lizzie woke up at the sound of her phone. She picked it up and answered.
"Hello?" she greeted groggily. Actually she didn't want to talk to anybody right now, with Jake not going to Miranda's wedding it made her even more depressed and she felt like venting her anger to anyone right now. "Lizzie!!" Gordo greeted enthusiastically. "are you still at work?" he asked.
"Yeah." She said almost without feeling. She was clearly not in the mood to be giddy. She felt sorry for Gordo, she knew he was just being nice and checking out on her. She felt kind of guilty for being so blank and disinterested with him.
"Lizzie, are you alright?" He asked, his voice full of concern.
"Me? Yeah! Of course I'm alright! Yeah.. I am! I am alright!" she lied. She's hoping he'll believe her, although she came out a little defensive. She knows she's not exactly the greatest liar and her friends can attest to that. well actually everybody can attest to that.
"No. you're not ok I can tell it from your voice." He said almost sounding like Grissom accusing the criminal that he's indeed guilty.
BINGO! She thought. She slapped her hand on her forehead. Good work McGuire she thought sarcastically.
"Ok fine I'm not ok. I just don't want to talk about it. is that ok?" she requested him. she really didn't want to talk about it. As much as possible she wants to forget about it. she even felt a tinge of not wanting to go to Miranda's wedding anymore for it will make her remember the things that happened. but of course, she brushed it off right away. She didn't want her feelings to get in on her friend's happiest moment.
"does this have anything to do with--" he trailed off "Just talk to me when you're ready ok? You'll be fine McGuire, I have your back." He assured her.
"Thanks Gordo." She told him. "Where are you anyway?" she asked changing the subject right away.
"Outside your office building." He laughed. "I just brought some ice cream and it's choco chip cookie dough your favorite!" he informed her.
"Why didn't you say so? I'll come right down!" she said. She gathered all her things and went to the washroom to check if she had the I-just-cried-an hour-ago look. She made herself up and went down outside. Gordo was resting by the front door of his car. He was wearing a crisp white polo shirt and khakis. He removed his shades as he saw Lizzie go up to him.
"Hey! Ready to go?" he asked her.
"Yup! Where's my ice cream?" she nodded. Gordo went to the passenger car door and opened it for her. Gordo went to the driver's seat and started the engine. Lizzie reached for the ice cream at the back of his car. Comfort food she thought.
"We're going to the drive in movie six blocks away." He told her smiling and looking out the road.
"Cool! What's showing?" she asked him. she was eating her ice cream at a rapid rate. Gordo looked at her ice cream saw that it was almost empty and chuckled.
"Casablanca" he informed her. They were already in the drive in movie place. Gordo parked the car to get a good view.
Lizzie laughed. "I thought you don't like chick flicks?" she asked him. he looked at her, stopped, then opened the door for her. She went out and both sat on the hood of the car.
"Casablanca is NOT a chick flick!" he retorted. Lizzie laughed and focused her attention to the movie since it was already starting. All throughout the movie, Lizzie was crying as she always did when she, Gordo and Miranda watched it together. She felt a pain in her heart as she watched, At least Rick really loved Ilsa, but Jake..she thought as she felt tears running down her cheeks again.
Gordo noticed Lizzie crying. But it seemed to him that she was not just crying because of the movie. How he knew that, he didn't know. He just knew. "Lizzie? Are you ok?" Gordo asked her. He put his hand on her shoulder and put her close to him so she can cry on his shoulder. She sobbed and sobbed, making slow breathing sounds.
"Shhhhhh.. Shhhhh. it's ok.. you can tell me anything." He patted her back and wiped her tears with his finger.
"It's Jake. He's not going to Miranda's wedding. And I know it's shallow if I cry because of that. I'm crying because I feel like he's ignoring me Gordo. He doesn't see me anymore and doesn't want to be with me anymore. I can feel it. he's so distant. He just called when I told him to call me. Even if he tells me he loves me, I feel like he doesn't mean it. like awhile ago, when I asked him how San Francisco was, he just said YOU should go here sometime and not WE should go here sometime. It's a bad sign I know it! he didn't even say something to make it up to me.. I just feel so unimportant." she sobbed again. Gordo put his arms around her and hushed her.
He finally spoke as she calmed down. "Lizzie, don't doubt him. I know he loves you. by the way you talk about him. the way he makes you feel loved and special. I know he loves you very much. Don't doubt him, he loves you. he was just tired and busy. I bet by the time he comes back things will be alright. He loves you ok? You're lucky to have him and he's especially lucky to have you." he told her
Lizzie thought for awhile. Gordo was right. Everything he said was right. Lizzie was immature. She felt bad and sorry for Jake for ever doubting him. "Yeah I guess, you're right Gordo. I'm such an ungrateful girlfriend. Just because I feel pressured about wanting him to pop the question. I'm doubting his love for me. I'm so stupid! Stupid! Stupid!" she finally smiled and sniffed. "Thanks Gordo, I feel like a neurotic person." And they hugged.
"Well sometimes! Kidding!" he chuckled. so can we get back to the movie?" Gordo asked her again.
"Hey!" Lizzie warned him and smiled. "Yup! Let's watch." Lizzie affirmed. They watched the movie in silence and Lizzie felt OK again. She was really lucky to have Gordo. he was always there to encourage her, remind her when she was wrong, make her smile, everything.. she was lucky, lucky to have Jake and Gordo, Miranda and everybody in her life and she couldn't ask for anything more.
Later that night after the movie.Gordo was driving Lizzie home. She fell asleep and he could hear her slow, almost silent breathing. Gordo smiled. It was a sight to see and hear he sleep. They arrived at Lizzie's apartment, pulled up and turned the engine off. She was still sleeping, strands of her hair were on her face. Gordo leaned to her and lifts the strands of hair from her face.
He run his index finger on her cheek and looked at her beautiful face. She's perfect. She's everything he wanted, he loves her more than love defined. I love you Lizzie McGuire he whispered silently to her. Silent, but nonetheless full of the emotions that he kept inside him for so long. Lizzie stirred. Gordo panicked and immediately positioned himself on his seat.
"Where are we?" Lizzie asked groggily and yawned.
"Uh..uh.. We're here infront of your house!" He told her. Good thing it was dark and she couldn't see him blushing and didn't notice he was babbling because of the almost untimely revelation that just happened.
"Oh.. you going inside?" she asked him.
"No.. you need rest.. it's late.." he answered and smiled at her.
"Ok.. see you tomorrow Gordo.. thanks for the ride." She smiled.
"Goodnight. Take care ok?" He told her. He still can't over what happened. it was a good thing she didn't notice.
"Thanks. You too." She replied and opened the door of the car. she was about to get out, but then she turned around, gave him a tight hug and a peck on the cheek. Gordo was surprised and reacted by returning her hug.
"what was that for?" he asked her still recovering from that warm feeling inside of him.
"Nothing. I just thank you for everything. I'm just soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo lucky to have you as my bestfriend." She answered him. she grinned at him and Gordo grinned back. Lizzie opened the door and went out. he waited for her to enter her apartment. before she closed the door, she waved at him. he waved back and drove home in silence, smiling as if there was no tomorrow..
