It was another rough night for Lizzie. As if Gordo's death wasn't bad enough, now she's seeing things? What was going on? Did she really put on the jacket herself? Did she really see Gordo outside the Digital Bean? Not wanting to toss and turn in her bed any longer, she once again takes sleeping pills. She knew it probably wasn't a good idea, but she was starting to get a headache again and she didn't want anything to do with it. The pills immediately start making her feel drowsy as she lays down on her bed.
Lizzie finds herself in a beautiful garden. She could smell roses all around her. The sky is bright and clear. As she looks around, she once again finds Gordo. He is sitting on the floor with his arms crossed over his knees, looking down.
"Gordo, you're back again!" said Lizzie as she rushes to him.
Gordo remains seated, but gazes up at Lizzie's for a moment before speaking softly," Lizzie, Lizzie, Lizzie.....". He looks back down. Lizzie is a little confused, so she sits next to him on the floor. Gordo then looks at her and says, "You know, it's almost your birthday."
"Oh, yeah," said Lizzie. "It hardly seems to matter anymore."
"Hopefully you'll get better by then." said Gordo.
"It's been really hard for me, you know, losing you," admitted Lizzie. "I don't think I could ever be my old self again."
"You would never believe what I bought you for your birthday." said Gordo.
"What was it?" asked Lizzie. It really didn't matter to her what he bought. She was just happy to be with Gordo at the moment.
Gordo remained silent for awhile, looking at Lizzie. "Miranda told me how much you really wanted that necklace at the mall. I saved up for months, and I went out and got it for you."
"Oh my God," said Lizzie, quite shocked. "That necklace is so expensive. I can't believe you got me that?" Lizzie knew that wasn't a typical present a friend would give another. Gordo was really in love with her. For the first time in Lizzie's life, she realized just how much she really loves this boy.
"It was probably really stupid of me," continued Gordo, " I knew I would be too chicken to ever give it to you. You have no idea how many times I've wanted to tell you how I feel. I always back out. Why on earth did I think this time would be any different."
Lizzie was at a loss for words. With so much emotions overwhelming her, she could only smile.
"That necklace would look so good on you," Gordo went on. "I have it kept safely in my bedroom closet."
"Wow. You're like the greatest guy any girl could ask for" said Lizzie suddenly without really thinking about it.
Gordo looks at Lizzie, leans over and gives her a light kiss on the lips. With that kiss, Lizzie knew without a shadow of a doubt, that she did in fact love Gordo too.
"Sorry, I thought I'd give it a shot," said Gordo after he had pulled away.
"No, that was great," said blissfully. "Really.. great."
"I love you so much Lizzie McGuire," said Gordo.
Lizzie hesitated for half a second before responding, "I lov-"
"Lizzie", Gordo interrupted. Lizzie looked at him attentively. "Wake up"
Just like before, Lizzie is back in her bedroom.
Lizzie finds herself in a beautiful garden. She could smell roses all around her. The sky is bright and clear. As she looks around, she once again finds Gordo. He is sitting on the floor with his arms crossed over his knees, looking down.
