Chapter Ten
After about ten minutes of making out, Gordo pulled away, "Wait, Lizzie. What are we doing here?" he asked.
Lizzie sat back and looked at him. He was right. She felt embarrassed for acting the way she did. "I'm sorry, Gordo. I don't know what got into me."
Gordo shook his head, "No, no. I provoked it."
Lizzie bit her bottom lip and looked at Gordo, feeling guilty. "Gordo, I am so sorry. I can't believe I just did that! I mean, I just got out of a serious relationship."
Gordo nodded his head, "Yeah, I understand. So. . .I guess we pretend it never happened?"
"Yeah," Lizzie said, "Nothing ever happened."
"Okay," Gordo said and he looked around, "Do you want to stay here and talk business."
"No," Lizzie said, "No, I should probably get home."
Lizzie stood up and headed for the door. Gordo followed to see her out of the apartment. Once the door closed, both of them sighed and walked away. To pretend like nothing ever happened would be a lie. Something did happen. Both of them felt sparks. Both of them were scared of their own feelings.
That evening, Gordo must have picked up the phone a dozen times to start dialing Lizzie's number, but he stopped himself. Nothing ever happened.
Across town, Lizzie was thinking the same thing. What made her go to Gordo in the first place? It wasn't like he was a good friend anymore or anything. Why was it that every day she looked forward to work because she would be working with Gordo? She was supposed to be in love with Ethan. She wasn't though. Maybe Ethan's cheating helped her find out who she really loved. Was it love, though? Was she in love with Gordo? Doesn't the person have to like you back to be in love technically?
Lizzie was thinking about a lot. She felt so ashamed of herself. Why did she kiss Gordo when he obviously didn't feel what she felt? They were getting along so well, this would probably ruin everything. Yeah, they were supposed to forget anything happened, but it wasn't easy. Her potential future happened.
Now, she was too embarrassed to face him. This would probably put strain on the project. Lizzie had to think, and she had to think fast.
When her vacation was over, and she had to go back, she decided what she thought would be best.
She walked into her building and went straight to Mr. Ivey's office and said firmly, trying to hold back her tears and anguish, "Mr. Ivey, with all due respect sir, I quit."
"What?" Mr. Ivey said, "But Ms. McGuire, we need you!"
"Sir, its nothing against you," Lizzie said, "Its my own fault."
"But you will ruin the campaign!"
"Mr. Ivey," Lizzie said, "You don't understand! I can't explain it, but I can't work here any longer. Give the campaign to someone who deserves it, okay?"
"What about David Gordon?"
"Tell him the truth. Tell him I can't forget!"
Lizzie stormed out of the office and building, and when no one saw her she broke down in tears.
A/N: I am sorry this was so short. Also, I am sorry this didn't really have any fluff. Have patience and review please!
