"You what?" Gordo asked.
"I, I, I,..." she stumbled on her words.
"You're the girl who sent me that note??" he asked in disbelief.
"The one and only!" she smiled weakly.
"Hey that's great! I mean, uh, cool, cool, so you like me?" he asked.
"Yeah, I guess, I guess maybe I do," she said.
"Well Lizzie, there's something I have to tell you," he began.
Toon Lizzie: "Oh no!! He's going to say he doesn't like me!!" starts crying
"Hmm?" she asked.
"I like you too," he said.
"Really??" she was surprised at that.
"Yeah, yeah, for quite awhile," he confessed.
"Like, how long?" she asked.
"Well, try my whole life?" he asked.
"Really?? Oh Gordo! If I only I knew," she said.
"Well, it didn't actually "kick in" until about 6 months ago," he said.
"That was when I went out with Ronnie," Lizzie realized. Everything was starting to fit together now.
"Yeah, I was jealous of you and that dirk," he said.
"Yeah, I guess you would have been," she said.
"When I saw you two kissing, I felt like someone had ripped me in half and burned me alive."
"Wait! You saw us kissing???"
"Yeah, well, I didn't intend to see you two, but I thought about what you said at school about how impressed you were that Ronny burned his own music, well, I thought if I made you a CD with all your favorite songs, maybe you'd be impressed with me, instead of him," Gordo explained.
"Oh Gordo, I'm so sorry!" she said.
"It's ok, it's all good," he smiled.
"Yeah, you and Brooke, me and Ronny, I guess we're even now," Lizzie said.
"I guess so, so, Lizzie, wanna go out to the movies with me this afternoon?" he asked.
"Ok, that sounds great!"
"Good, it'll be our first official date then I guess."
"Yeah! Total coolie!"
