(A/N: Ok, I hope this chapter will be more interesting. Also, it is the
longest one I have done so far, so I hope you like it. I noticed that
some of you were disappointed about Miranda. I will defintely keep her "with" the story with phone calls, IM, and stuff. Matt and Melina will be mentioned in this chapter. I am not sure yet if I will have them "romanticised" so to say, but I hope they'll still be interesting to ya'll. Whoo-hoo! I can't wait for American Idol, go Diana!!!)

While Lizzie was getting ready for bed, Matt was in his room talking
to Melina on the phone.

"Well, she just got off the phone with old loverboy," he informed
Melina, "I mean, Gordo is such a cool guy, I just can't see what he sees in my stupid sister, it grosses me out that they were SMOOCHING in front of my house!!"

"Well, that's how the ball bounces," Melina said, clearly not interested in Gordo and Lizzie's love life.

"Yeah, I guess you're right, I mean, I saw it coming, just wondered
when the heck it would actually happen," he told her.

"So," she said, trying to change the subject,"What are we going to do
tomorrow?"

"Hmm, well I overheard Lizzie's conversation and Gordo and her are going on a date tomorrow, so wouldn't it be cool if we followed them around and did some, ahem, spying?" he asked.

Melina thought about it some. Sure, she thought romance and stuff was sickening, but spying was the coolest thing around, except for trying to be better at Matt in everything.

"Sounds good to me," she said.

"Ok, well I'll call you tomorrow when I find out the time they are going," Matt informed her.

"Ok, cya," she said.

He hung up and decided to go to bed after such a long day.

When Lizzie woke up the next morning, she remembered all of last night's events. Her and Gordo, and Miranda's moving away. It all seemed so impossible at the moment, that she thought briefly that she was in a dream. But, she knew she wasn't. After getting dressed and ready, she called Gordo to ask what time they would go on their date.

Mrs. Gordon answered. "Hi Lizzie, Gordo is still asleep, but I can tell him to call you when he gets up".

"Ok, thanks," said Lizzie, clearly disappointed. She hung up and decided to eat breakfast, even though it was 11:48 AM.

"Good morning sweetie," Lizzie's Mom(A/N:Ok, after this I am calling her Jo from now on and her dad, Sam) greeted her with.

"Hi Mom, can we, uh, talk?" Lizzie asked. (Toon Lizzie:"I must not be feeling well, I am actually asking Mom for advice!!)

"Sure sweetie, let's sit down," Jo said, leading her to the living room sofa.

"Mom," Lizzie began, "Alot happened to me last night."

"Really? You can tell me everything, you know that sweetie."

"Yes, I know, oh Mom, Miranda has moved away to New York, and alot has happened between Gordo and I."

"Lizzie! How awful!! How come Miranda has moved away?"

"Her dad got transferred."

"I'm so sorry for you, Gordo, and her, it will be so hard without her around for awhile, I'm sure, but there's always phone calls and email, and you 3's special bond with each other, so, I'm sure everything will work out, it will just take some getting used to."

"Thanks Mom."

"You're welcome, now, what did you mean a few minutes ago about something between you and Gordo?"

"Well Mom, you see, um, Gordo and I, we, um, have discovered, um, feelings for each other in ways we never thought we would have for each other, if you know what I, uh, mean."

"Oh Lizzie! I'm so happy for you two!! I knew it would happen someday, since you two have always been so close!!"

Lizzie never expected this reaction. Never. "Well Mom, I can see you aren't too, um, surprised by this."

"Well, I shouldn't be, I just always expected it."

"How is Dad going to take it?"

"I'm sure he'll take it fine after it settles in his head for a little while."

"I just don't want him to flip out like he did with Ronnie".

"It'll be ok sweetie."

"Thanks Mom."

After their conversation and Lizzie's breakfast, the phone rang. Lizzie ran really fast to go get it.

"It's probably Gordo!!!!" she yelled, grabbing the phone. "Hello?!" she asked excitedly, "Hey Gordo!"

"Hi Lizzie, what are you up to?" he asked.

"Not too much, how about you?" she replied.

"Well, I've come up with our plans for today and the time, if they're ok with you," he said.

"Anything you come up with is fine with me Gordon!" she said flirtatiously.

"Well, how's going to the Digital Bean, and then coming over to my house to 'hang out'?" Gordo suggested.

"Coolie, that sounds good to me!" she agreed.

"Is 1:00 good?" he asked.

"Sure, that's fine," she said.

"Ok, see ya then, love ya!"

"Bye!"

Gordo's Point of View:

Wow, I'm finally going out with the girl of my dreams. I'M her boyfriend, not Ronnie, not Frankie, not Ethan, and definetly not Paolo. But ME!

End of Point of View

Lizzie spent her next hour and a half getting ready to see Gordo. A couple of minutes before 1 O'clock, she headed out the door and went to go meet Gordo. As she walked down the sidewalk, she hummed to herself. All of a sudden, she felt some arms on the back of her!!

"AAHHH!!" she screamed.

"Hey Lizzie, I didn't mean to scare you," said Gordo.

"Oh hi Gordo!" she said, turning around and kissing him on the cheek.

"Is that all I get?" he asked.

"No," she said, embracing him, and kissing him warmly on the lips.

"That's more like it," Gordo said, kissing her back.

They walked hand in hand to the Digital Bean. Going in, they picked out a small, cozy table in the corner.

"I'll go order our stuff," Gordo said, "What do you want?"

"Oh Gordo, you know I just HAVE to have a strawberry smoothie!" she laughed.

"Yeah, I know," he smiled.

Gordo came back a few minutes later with a giant size smoothie and 2 straws.

"I thought it'd be more romantic if you and I shared a smoothie," he explained.

"I totally agree," Lizzie said peeling off the paper on the straw and then stuck it in one side of the smoothie. Gordo put his straw in, and they both drank it.

Meanwhile, Melina had just met Matt in front of the Digital Bean.

"Ok," said Matt, "They must have just went in, because before you showed up, I spied on them through a bush and saw them walking over here kissing."

"Eew, I SO didn't want to hear that last part, how are we going to spy on them out here? This place has, like, no windows!" she imformed him.

"Yeah, I know," said Matt, "We'll just have to go in, they don't have to know why we're really here."

"I suppose, but don't you think they'll think it's weird we're going in? We NEVER go here!" she said smacking him on the arm.

"Well...., you're right, as usual, I guess we'll have to sit out here, bored, and wait for them to come outta there," he said gloomily.

(Back to Gordo and Lizzie)

After they had drank the smoothie, Gordo and Lizzie kissed a few times and then went out to go to his house. Since they had no idea Matt and Melina were following them, they held hands the whole time. Matt was trying not to gag. Melina almost laughed aloud a few times when they kissed. Finally,they were in Gordo's house.

"Ok, hopefully, they're gong to the livingroom or something, and we can spy on them through the window," Matt suggested.

"Whatever," said Melina.

(Inside)

"Wanna play a game of chess?" Gordo asked his girlfriend.

"Sure, I'd love to," she replied happily. They both sat cross-legged on either side of the coffee table.

"You can make the first move," Gordo said. Lizzie did just that, and a heated game began. After 6 long games, Gordo only won 2 of them. Lizzie was an excellent player. Gordo never could understand that, since he had been the one who had taught her.

"You deserve this champ," he said kissing her tenderly.

"Thanks Gordo," she kissed him back. All of a sudden, the phone rang. They quickly broke away and Gordo got up to go pick up the phone.

"Darn!" he said hanging it up, "Just a dumb sales' call."

"I hate those," said Lizzie.

"Ditto," Gordo said, giving her a peck on the cheek.

"Gross!" said Melina to Matt, "They just keep on kissing!!"

Her and Matt were in the front bushes, peeking in every few seconds.
"I sure hope they don't see us," Matt said, worried.

"Don't worry, they won't, they're too involved with each other to even think of paying attention to something else," Melina informed him.

Lizzie looked at the clock, and realized she needed to get back home.
"Well Gordo, I'm sorry, but I think my parents will want me back home by now," she said sadly.

"Rats, good things always come to an end, mind if I walk you home?" he asked.

"Sure, I'd love that," she said.

They went out the door and walked to Lizzie's house. Matt and Melina followed close behind. When Gordo and Lizzie stopped in front of the house, Matt and Melina ducked behind a tree.

"Bye Gordo, thanks for the wonderful time," Lizzie said, and then kissed him.

"I had fun too McGuire," he said, and kissed her back.

"Bye!" she said, and then went inside. Gordo walked back home happily. Melina told Matt she should go home now because it was highly important that she didn't miss dinner.

"Cya Melina!" Matt said, as he walked inside.

(A/N: So, how was that? Long, I know! But it had to be. So there. Please review!! Every comment helps!! Just don't say something inappropiate please!! Thanks.)
