The Perfect Night-Chapter 8
-Sorry. . .My computer has been broken so I haven't been updating. Yeah so here we go.
-Monday at school-
Lizzie and Miranda hopped out of Miranda's Jeep and walked slowly towards the school doors. Prom was in 6 days and they couldn't be more excited especially now they had plans after the prom thanks to Lizzie and Gordo's karaoke prize. Gordo was leaning up against the pop machines waiting for them like he always did. Lizzie stopped. She had left his house before he had woken up on Saturday morning and hadn't talked to him since. She hadn't been able to remember anything from Friday night and waking up in Gordo's bed scarred her.
"Lizzie, just ask him." Miranda prodded.
"Okay, Okay!" Lizzie adjusted her backpack on her shoulder and Miranda ran off to meet Eric.
"Hey sexy." Gordo said smiling deviously.
"Hey." Lizzie responded awkwardly.
"What's the matter?" he asked.
"Um. . .Gordo I was pretty wasted on Friday night. . .Did we do anything?" Lizzie stared at the ground. Gordo chuckled a little bit.
"Lizzie. I wouldn't ever take advantage of you."
"What?" Lizzie met his eyes.
"We didn't do anything. I wouldn't do that to you." Gordo explained. Lizzie was silent for a moment. Then she threw her arms around his neck.
"I knew I loved you!" Lizzie said kissing him repeatedly.
"Huh?" Gordo asked pulling back from their embrace.
"I love you Gordo." Lizzie said kissing him again.
"I love you too. I won't ever make you do anything unless you are ready." Gordo kissed her bare neck.
"Thank you so much!" Lizzie smiled and played with his necklace. The warning bell rang and they went their separate ways, both knowing that this relationship was going to last.
-Prom Night-
"Lizzie!!! I need you strawberry colored lipstick!" Miranda screamed through the bathroom door.
"Hang on! Chill out Miranda! Prom is 5 hours from now! I have to finish showering!" Five minutes later Lizzie emerged from the bathroom with a towel around her and her hair dripping around her shoulders. Just then the doorbell rang.
"Mom! Dad! Can anyone get that?" Lizzie shouted over the railing of the stairs. Nobody answered so she called out again. "MATT?" No answer. "Fine I'll get it." Lizzie walked down the stairs pulling the towel around her tightly hoping it was just the pizza man. She swung open the door and there was Gordo. He looked her up and down and then met her eyes.
"I'm sorry if I caught you at a bad time." Gordo said blushing.
"Hey!!" Lizzie shouted throwing her arms around his neck and kissing him. Gordo's hands resting on her back and he let himself slip into the kiss. After a minute or two Lizzie pulled away and slid her hands over his chest.
"You better get back inside." Gordo said breathlessly. "You don't want to get sick."
"Yeah." Lizzie said as she pulled him inside with her. "I'll be right back I'm going to go put something on. Not that I don't just want to take it off right here." Lizzie said playfully. She traced her fingers on the edge of his pants.
"Lizzie! Don't do that." Gordo said grabbing her hands. "I might want to. . ." Gordo blushed.
"Okay. I'll be right back." Lizzie said and skipped up the stairs. She entered her bedroom and shut the door. She heard the shower running so she figured Miranda was in the shower. She pulled on gray sweat pants and her navy blue NYPD t-shirt. She brushed her hair out and then ran back downstairs. Gordo was waiting for her on the couch. She plopped down next to him and put her hands on his back.
"So. . .Miranda is in the shower. . ." Lizzie hinted.
"I came over Lizzie cause I wanted to give you this." Gordo pulled out a box from his jacket pocket. Lizzie opened the box slowly and gasped. Inside the box was a silver heart locket with diamond studs outlining the shape of the heart.
"Gordo! This is beautiful!" Lizzie looked from the necklace to his eyes.
"Open it." Gordo instructed. Inside was a picture of them in their sophomore year. They were standing back to back with water guns in their hands. On the other side "Lizzie and Gordo Forever." Inscribed into the gold. "Even if this relationship doesn't work out we'll be friends forever. But I sure hope it works out. I love you." Gordo brushed away Lizzie's hair from her face. Tears filled her eyes.
"I love you so much Gordo!" Lizzie smiled through her tears and he clasped the necklace around her neck. She ran to the back door and stood in the middle of her backyard.
"I LOVE DAVID ZEPHNER GORDON SO MUCH!" She screamed to nobody. Gordo had by that time followed her out to the backyard.
"AND I LOVE ELIZABETH BROOKE MCGUIRE EVEN MORE THAN THAT!" Gordo placed his hands around her waist and kissed her.
"LIZZIE!" Miranda screamed from inside. "WE HAVE TO GET READY NOW! WHERE ARE YOU?"
"I guess I better get going." Gordo said breaking off the kiss. "Eric and I will be here with the limo at 7:00"
"I'll be ready." Lizzie said she kissed him softly goodbye and he exited through the back gate. Lizzie entered the house and ran up the stairs. "MIRANDA! LOOK!" Lizzie screamed. She showed Miranda the outside and inside of her necklace. It was official. She was in love.
