DISCLAIMER: I don't own Lizzie, please don't sue

When the four got home the next day, they decided to postpone the tour until after Lizzie's baby was born. During that day, they told Miranda and Larry's parents about Lizzie and Gordo becoming future parents, and they told their friends about both the baby and Larry and Miranda's wedding.

Also, all four of them planned on going on their honeymoon together. They were going to plan it after Lizzie went to the doctor. They arrived at the doctor's office, and Gordo was told to accompany Lizzie when she went in. Larry and Miranda stayed in the waiting room, and discussed on where they should go.

Lizzie and Gordo went into the room, where Lizzie was told that they would do a sonogram and a doppler, since she found out about the baby a little bit late. They performed both, and they said that the baby was in perfect condition. After asking her a few questions, they let her leave.

They met up with Larry and Miranda, who greeted them with excitement.

"What's the rush about?" Lizzie asked.

Larry showed them a magazine page. Lizzie and Gordo read it:

CALL 1-800-CRUISE-LINE-STAR TO WIN A 2 WEEK LUXURY CRUISE FOR FOUR TO HONG KONG AND SINGAPORE IN AMAZING CHINA. CALL NOW, MANY WILL CALL, FEW WILL WIN.

"What about it?" Gordo asked.

"We called and we won!" Miranda squealed.

"You're kidding me, Sanchez!" Lizzie said.

"No, I'm not- and it's Tudgeman, not Sanchez!" Miranda said.

"And when does this start?" Lizzie asked.

"In two days." Larry answered.

"Two days!?' We'd better go home and get packed." Gordo said, to which everyone agreed with.

They went home, and told everyone about winning the trip.

"We're all using this as our honeymoon." Lizzie said.

"Okay, we were wondering about that." Jo said.

"And when do you guys leave?" Miranda's father asked.

"In two days." Miranda said.

"Well, if that's the case, don't you think you should be packing?" Gordo's mother asked.

Everyone agreed and went upstairs to pack. While they did so, they all chattered about what they'd do.

"I've always wanted to go to China." Lizzie said. "I've been to Europe, and now we get to visit Asia."

"And I don't have to go to my grandmother's house this time." Miranda said.

They spent the whole tow days packing what they needed. Finally, the day arrived. After saying good-bye to their family, Gregory drove them over to the harbor where the ship was.

"You guys be careful, you hear?' Gregory said.

"We will." Lizzie said.

"I'll have the bus parked near the back when you return, okay?' Gregory called. "See you when you get back!"

"Bye!" They called and then ran off to get their keys to their rooms. They arrived at the desk where the steward waited.

"Hello, welcome to the eleventh annual China Cruise. My name is Jake, and I'll be your steward. If you'd please tell me your rooms, I'll lead you to your rooms."

"I'm David Gordon, and this is my wife, Lizzie Gordon." Gordo said.

"Miranda Tudgeman, and my husband, Larry."

Jake smiled and said, "We get someone famous every year. Be careful, you might have a lot of fans here. Your rooms are this way."

Jake led them to their rooms, 247 AND 248. He gave them their keys, and they opened them up to find lavish rooms, bursting with oriental decor. Right when they put their luggage down, they heard the ship's foghorn go off.

"Come on, we've gotta be outside when the ship pulls away!" Lizzie said. As they hurried out of their rooms, they came face to face with Jake.

"Oh....uh, hi Jake. We were just uh......."Miranda started

"In a hurry are you?" Jake asked sternly.

"Well, yes." Lizzie said, knowing that they were defeated.

Jake smiled and said, "Hey, me too. I'll race you guys."

"But isn't running forbidden?" Lizzie asked.

"Not on this ship." Jake answered. "Okay, ready.....get set.....GO!"

They all ran as fast as they could, and Larry wound up beating them to the ship's dock. They leaned against the railing, and waved good-bye to the people who were doing the same at the harbor.

Once the ship was set on full-sail, they all went back to their rooms and set everything up. After a while, they realized that it was time for dinner. They met up and went into a dining area that seemed like a seven thousand star restaurant. After eating, they all went to the spa, and ended up making out, because nobody else was there.

Finally, they were all tired and went to their rooms. Gordo and Lizzie were both dog-tired, but not Larry and Miranda, so they didn't even bother to ask what they were planning on doing. Their bed was right next to the window. The moon was full the stars were bright and the sky was clear. Gordo opened up the window, and with all the lights out, the same illumination came upon both of them.

They got into bed, and snuggled close to each other.

"Well, after eight years, we're finally going out of the country again." Lizzie said softly.

"I though it would never happen." Gordo responded. "And this time, we're going as a couple- not turning into one."

Lizzie giggled and pulled him into a series of kisses. They finally embraced each other and went to sleep. This was going to be the trip of a lifetime.
