Chapter 6
***How can you see into my eyes like open doors
leading you down into my core
where I've become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gordo drove to his parents house. Although he felt somewhat nervous about seeing them. Ever since his fight with Lizzie everything took a turn for the worst. No one, nothing seemed to matter anymore; nothing was worth the pain it might cause. He left everything in L.A. behind he wanted to forget everything. Once in a while he called his parents but avoided it. They'd always speak of him moving 'back home'. He knew they worried about him but he didn't care he didn't see how someone could worry for him when his life was already screwed. But he called them anyway for pity sake. And he told them everything was great; nothing was wrong.

***(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I've become
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
But it wasn't. How could it be? Everything money, women , success, it all didn't matter. Nothing matters without love. And his heart couldn't bare to love anymore. His heart was devoted to Lizzie, and she was gone. So did it mean he had no heart, no love to give? It felt like it, and he felt like nothing.
***Now that I know what I'm without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life
But he wanted to change that. He wouldn't stand be without her, being loveless and unhappy any longer. He needed her to go on.
***(Wake me up)
Wake me up inside
(I can't wake up)
Wake me up inside
(Save me)
call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up)
bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up)
before I come undone
(Save me)
save me from the nothing I've become
***frozen inside without your touch
without your love darling
only you are the life among the dead
"Maybe this story will bring us together" thought Lizzie. He was still in her head after all these years there had to be a reason for it. She couldn't feel loved without him. She needed him to love her and bring warmth back in the heart a smile on her face she needed him to be with her. To make her complete. But it was impossible what could a story and a bunch of headlines do to bring them back together. She wasn't supposed to see him ever again.......right?
***all this time I can't believe I couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
without a thought without a voice without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life
He probably hated her after what she did either that or he never even thought about her anymore ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
She probably hates me now, but who's to say I don't hate her. Maybe trying to see her again is a mistake, I mean I can't trust my heart anymore, let alone her. But how can I hate her, when I love her?"
***(Wake me up)

They did need each other and fate would bring them together; face to face. But it would be up to them to savor the moment, listen to their heart and to take the chance. Would they?
***I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside
Bring me to life............
(Song over)
David drove on to his parent's house. He passed by trees, sidewalks, and houses. All memories of home came rushing back. He finally pulled up to his drive way and got out of his car. He slowly walked to the door. Before he could ring the bell the door was open and pair of arms were around him.
"I missed you too mom" he said
"Oh Gordo sweetie, why didn't you call we could have set up a room for you" said Mrs. Gordon
Daivd wondered why she called him Gordo "Mom I'm only staying a couple days.....I mean....... I'm not staying very long. I don't even know if I'll be staying here. I didn't know I was coming home till yesterday"
"Well whatever the reason I'm glad to see you home come in come in" She opened the door to him and he walked in.
"Gordo, well nice to see you next time we'd like to here from you more than once a year"
'My father too?' thought David still wondering why they were calling him Gordo.
"Now, Howard don't be so hard on him. He's home right?"
David's father gave him a reassuring smile "It's good to have you home son"
"It's good to be home" answered David
"Well Gordo let your father help you with you're stuff how long did you say you were staying?" said Mrs. Gordon
"Mom I told you.........well actually I don't have anywhere else to stay why not?"
"Okay well go on Howard, help your son, I was just about finished with dinner, I'll set the table you guys get your stuff"
"Okay mom" he walked back outside with his dad.
"So..........." Said David after he got to his car with his dad
"So, what?" asked Mr. Gordon
"Well isn't there something you wanted to tell me?"
"Like what?"
"I mean like 'where have you been?', 'why didn't you call?' 'Your mother and I have been worried.........."
"It's nice to have you home son"
"That's all? That's all you have to say to me after all this?"
"Listen, I know why you've been so distant and I can understand. And yes I wish you could have kept us a little more informed on your life but, I just always felt you were going to come home sometime"
"Yeah, well Dad it wasn't my choice to come here. And I guess that makes it worst-"
"But you're home"
"Yeah, I guess"
"It's nice to see you son"
"Nice to see you too Dad"
David smiled to himself and continued getting his things from the car.
"Hurry up guys diner is almost ready! Gordo! I've set up you're room it's all ready now!" shouted Mrs. Gordon from inside the house
"Dad, can I ask you something?"
"Sure"
"Why are you and Mom calling me Gordo?"
"Well your mother thought maybe if we called you by the name you preferred you might come home"
"Oh, I'm sorry"
"I know"
"You can call me David if you want, most everybody does now"
"No, when you're home you're Gordo"
"Okay......Gordo. It brings back memories" 'Just what I need' he thought
'Gordo' laid in his old bed that night; thinking. "So maybe seeing my parents wasn't so bad. But Lizzie, I don't know what to expect. Maybe I should just forget about it just get the interview and be back on the plane early the next day. But then, I would never now what would happen if I did find her. I've got plenty of time to think I should just go to sleep"
'Maybe you'll run into a friend'
Those words still lingered in his head. Maybe, maybe not but still..... maybe. He was confused. Part of him wanted to find Lizzie and the other part was telling him to go to the house and get the interview and then go but it was like something was waiting for him there at the interview maybe answers?. "But why?" He thought, what purpose would it do if he got the interview right away? It was still bugging him. He was having an internal war on weather or not to go right away. He really wanted to stay longer but something about the idea of the interview made him smile and he didn't now why. "Okay" he thought "That's it I'll get the interview."
