Chapter 8 - Still confused
I do not own Lizzie McGuire (Have I mentioned oh lucky Adam Lamberg was to work with 2 beautiful girls on the show?)
Gordo simply returned to his table and continued his writing. He paused for a moment to think but before he could add his thought to the paper he saw a hand pick up the piece of paper off the table.
"Can I help.. Oh its you." Gordo snapped as he saw Miranda holding the piece of paper he had been writing on. Miranda looked up from the paper and smiled.
"I see you added to your work again," Miranda began with a look and a tone said that she knew what he was doing before she ever got out there.
Gordo simply sat there, shook his head, and smiled before replying, "Yeah, things are becoming more clear now."
Miranda looked at her friend and smiled to herself. She thought the world of David Gordon. She found him to be funny, witty, intelligent, attractive and loyal. In another life, in an alternate universe, she could see herself falling for Gordo. But in this life, and in this universe, she knew that Gordo and Lizzie were meant to be together. In knowing that however, Miranda still had to admit if only to herself, that on some levels she was envious and maybe even a little jealous of Lizzie and the way Gordo felt about her.
Miranda thought for a moment about what she wanted to say so she wouldn't blurt out something she didn't want Gordo to hear. She knew Gordo didn't need any other complications in his life right now. Good, he wasn't looking at her. She took a deep breath and began to speak, "David I think this poem is really sweet.. I think you're really sweet. Lizzie is so lucky."
"Thanks, but can we talk about something else please?" Gordo asked trying to get off the Lizzie subject even is just for a little bit.
"Sure, what did you have in mind?" Miranda replied agreeing that a change in subject would be for the best.
"Tell me about Mexico City." Gordo inquired trying for something simple.
"Well, I wouldn't wanna live there but it was really pretty and I had fun visiting. I saw my family and "Thanks, but can we talk about something else please?" Gordo asked trying to get off the Lizzie subject even is just for a little bit.
"Sure, what did you have in mind?" Miranda replied agreeing that a change in subject would be for the best.
"Tell me about Mexico City." Gordo inquired trying for something simple.even met some new members." She stated pleasantly. "Hey! Hey! Gordo! Are you listening to me?" She asked, clearly annoyed when she saw that Gordo was not listening to her.
Gordo snapped back into reality and gave Miranda a look that begged for forgiveness before telling her, "I'm sorry Miranda, I'm listening to you, I just.."
Miranda snapped back, "You're just still thinking about Lizzie, I know", cutting off Gordo before he could finish. Miranda got up out of her chair and turned to leave but not before Gordo caught a look on her face that said sadness, anger, and hurt. Gordo had no idea why she was upset but he was very sorry for whatever it was he had just done to upset her. The truth was that Miranda was not even sure why she was upset with Gordo. Gordo was hurrying to get in front of her when he heard a voice behind them.
"Gordo, Miranda!" Jo McGuire yelled as she was rushing into the courtyard. Sam, Lizzie, Matt, Kate, and Ethan were all right behind her.
Gordo and Miranda both stopped and turned to answer Jo, but before either of them could say anything they saw the look on the group's faces. They all looked shocked, sad and about to break up. Gordo knew something was horribly wrong. Miranda voiced what Gordo was thinking.
"What's wrong?!" Miranda asked upon seeing their distraught faces and body language.
Jo visibly tried to calm her self before speaking, "I have some bad news," she stated her as her voice trembled. She looked at Gordo, looked away, and then looked at him again. "Gordo, she began with a empathetic purpose, "sweetie come here." She requested as she motioned him to come to her. Gordo complied with this request and followed Jo to a nearby bench. Gordo sat on the bench and Jo sat down next to him and faced him. Jo turned her head enough to see Lizzie standing in front of them. Jo quickly gave her a look that said no but Lizzie gave her a look that said please. Jo conceded to her daughter and allowed to her take a seat on the other side of Gordo. Jo, even right now still knew how close Gordo and Lizzie were. Jo put her arm around Gordo's shoulder and Lizzie squeezed his hand. Jo breathed in deep, drew from all the strength she had in her, and prepared to break the news to Gordo.
"Gordo.You're parents were on their way to dinner and a speeding car ran a red-light . it hit your parents car and pushed it into a building near by. They took them to the hospital but.they didn't make it. Gordo you're parents are dead.." Jo McGuire finally barely finished. Gordo fell into Lizzie's arms and began to cry and weep like a baby. Jo embraced and told him the only thing she could say, "I'm so sorry."
