DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN LIZZIE MCGUIRE. I know that it may seem like I am dragging this story on, and if you think the dragging is continuing, it's stopping. I mean, I really wanted to write this chapter when I was fully awake and in focus, and I finished the last chapter at like midnight the other night and it was already long.
Anyway, enjoy the chapter, and since punishment is still iffy, don't expect another update right away.
Oh, and this chapter was really hard to write without making it seem like it would end in a cliff hanger, so don't get mad about that.
Shock and Awe
~Gordo~
Gordo sat in the waiting room, but couldn't concentrate. It hit him that he really didn't know what he was going to say when he finally saw Lizzie, and that was not a good thing.
Lizzie might not actually welcome this information.
Funny how nervous Gordo was, and how unsuspecting Lucy was.
How does one go about this whole situation anyway? He really shouldn't know it's her, so should he call her Lucy? Was she legally bound to that name? He decided he would handle the law thing after the whole ordeal.
She'll probably be shocked, Gordo thought. She might not believe me, he thought. She might think I am joking. That all occurred to him.
This all was so complicated, and stupidly, he didn't have a plan. He was just depending on the luck he was having recently. Maybe his luck was out. Maybe she wouldn't except it all. It was a lot to endure for one day.
He started writing a letter after asking for a sheet of computer paper from the desk, just in case he couldn't find words to say. That was looking like it was going to be the case too. Yeah, he would give the nurse the letter to hand Lizzie, and wait for her to respond in her own way.
Dear Lizzie,
Or should I call you Lucy? Heh, well, okay, here goes nothing. We talked and I said my name was David, right? Well, I was being truthful; my name is David. My full name is David Zephyr Gordon. Sound familiar?
If you can read on, I can explain myself. This isn't a dream, because I am here writing to you. I am alive and by some sort of luck, I found you. It's quite a story that I would love to tell you sometime if you will let me.
I know you are probably feeling a lot of different emotions right now. I have for the past few days, too. Believe me. Well, you are probably going through a lot of different emotions reading this, too.
I hope you believe that I am David Gordon, or Gordo. I don't know where you want to go from here, but I hope you will let me see you and I hope to see you a lot more than I have in recent years. I have been watching Sarah for the past few days, and she is beautiful. She is ALMOST the most beautiful person I have ever met. Too bad she doesn't have a father. Anyway, I would like to talk to you.
Gordo
P.S. Je t'aime
He was finishing the letter when the nurse walked up to him, "Lucy would like to see you now, Mr. McGuire."
Gordo looked up and quickly folded the note. He stood up and sighed. The nurse led him to the room where Lucy was. Once at the door, Gordo lost his nerve. "Listen, um, will you just give Lucy this note?"
The nurse looked at him, "You don't want to give it to her yourself?"
Gordo shook his head, "I think this note might be better."
The nurse struggled for a minute, "Well, I am afraid we might have to read over the note. In this particular area of the hospital, anything given by another person has to be inspected. Could we read it."
Gordo opened his folded note, and decided it would only be suited for Lizzie's eyes only right now. "Um, well, its kind of personal, you see," he started.
The nurse nodded her head, "Well, unfortunately, we can't authorize it, then. You want to see Lucy, now?"
Gordo panicked. He was really depending on the note. He looked down at it for the last time. He finally decided to tear the last part off, and hand it to the nurse, "Here, you can just give her this, and see what she says," he said, "and I'll be out here."
The nurse took the note and read it. She smiled, "Okay, just wait out here."

~Lizzie~
The nurse walked in a few minutes later.
"Where I he?" she asked, noticing no one was with her.
"Um, well, he is out there. He wanted me to give you this note, and see what you have to say," the nurse said and she handed Lucy the note and sat down.
Lucy read the note.
"P.S. Je t'aime"
Lucy stared at the note for a few minutes, unsure of what was going on. "Is this from David?" she asked after a few minutes.
The nurse nodded, "Yeah, he looked awfully nervous, so he wanted to give you the note."
Lizzie was going through a lot of emotions. David . . . California . . .the dream that seemed so real . . . McGuire, and now this. It all seemed so clear now. A tear streamed down her face and quickly got up, "Where is he?"
"Lucy? Are you feeling okay?"
"I don't know. I just really want to see him . . .where is he?" she repeated, "He's alive," she whispered to herself.
"Um, who's alive?" the nurse said.
"I want to see him!" she cried, "Tell him that I want to see him!"
"You want to see your brother?"
"Yes," she choked, "I have to see him."
"Okay," the nurse said and she disappeared.
Was this actually happening? Lizzie thought. "Je t'aime" was something only the two of them ever shared. This was impossible. He was supposed to be dead, though.
A few seconds later, the door opened and he appeared. He looked at her and a tear streamed down his face as he ran toward her, "Lizzie!" he cried and he pulled her into a tight hug.
The nurse went away and Lizzie stayed in his arms for a long time.
"Why didn't you tell me you were alive?" Lizzie said.
Gordo smiled through his tears, happy that she welcomed him rather than pushed him away.
"Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?" he said.
Lizzie and Gordo looked at Sarah, who was observing them, "I don't know! I didn't want to hold your career back. Gordo! I thought you were dead!"
Gordo shook his head, "I came close to death, but I was sent to prison in Turkey under a misunderstanding."
Lizzie's eyes widened, "You mean I wasn't dreaming when I read that article?"
"What article?" Gordo said.
"The night I fainted, I decided to look up your name online and came across an article about you being alive, and I fainted."
"I am so sorry!" Gordo said.
"Don't be sorry, Gordo," Lizzie said, smiling, "I wanted it all to be true, and I am so glad it is true."
Gordo smiled, "Me too. I love you, Lizzie!"
"I love you to, Gordo!" she said, "I can't believe this is real. I feel like this is all one big long dream!"
Gordo kissed Lizzie passionately. Unfortunately, the nurse chose to walk in at that very moment, seeing them kiss. They stopped and blushed.
The nurse looked at them and smiled, "Let me guess. You aren't really siblings?"

Did you like it? This story is almost over . . .then I can concentrate on the other projects. Anyway, please review, and be patient with the next chapter. I can't make any promises with this punishment an all. In the mean time, please review!
Okay, anyway, have a great week. Happy Birthday Adam!
