Chapter 5 - Old Flame
"Lizzie? Lizzie McGuire? What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to sign a contract to sing a song for this movie, what are you doing here?"
"I'm playing the lead in this movie. What do you mean sign a contract to sing a song, you are a singer now? Like Professionally?"
"Lizzie, how does he know you?" Isabella asks Lizzie confused.
"We dated for a short while when I was filming a movie in Hillridge." Frankie answered.
"You dated Frankie Muniz?"
"Yes, he was the only person I dated where the relationship didn't end badly." Lizzie answered back.
"Back to my question, you sing professionally now Lizzie?" Frankie asked again.
"Yes, with Isabella here, it's a long story how it came about, but it's just for the Summer and then I go back to Hillridge."
"I can't believe it, I always knew you were destined to do great things Lizzie, do you think we could have lunch later, catch up?"
"I'd love to Frankie. How about this afternoon after we meet with the producers and such?"
"Sure about 1:30?"
"Sounds great, I'll meet you here." Lizzie answered and then followed Isabella to where the Executive Producer and the Director were waiting to talk to them.
After meeting with the crew and acquiring the job of doing the song for the movie's soundtrack and a music video, Lizzie met Frankie where they had previously talked and they went on to have lunch at a local cafe. After catching up for more then an hour, Frankie decided to ask Lizzie out again.
"Lizzie?" he started.
"Yeah?"
"Well, we broke up before because you were having problems with the fame involved in dating a celebrity, but now you are a celebrity yourself. Do you think we could.... try again?"
The question didn't totally shock Lizzie, but she was having a hard time answering Frankie, she still had feelings for Gordo even though he had never told her what she thought she already knew. Frankie once again was feeling self conscious as he did the last time he had asked Lizzie out and she stood there silent, but knew enough about Lizzie that he gave her a few moments to think it over. "Yes" she finally answered, "I'd like that."
It wasn't long till word got out that Frankie Muniz was once again dating Lizzie McGuire, and this time Lizzie had her own fame on the table. Less then a week after this meeting in France, someone in Virginia was looking at a photograph in an entertainment magazine of Lizzie McGuire and Frankie Muniz sharing lunch in France. Gordo didn't know what to do, he just knew that he no longer could stay silent, He dug out his passport, got his mom to set him up a trip to France, and the next day was waiting at the airport for his flight, he just had to tell her... NOW!
