D.Torres – I get what your saying and I'll try to create some chapters that cover more than one day. But the big problem is that I have to create stuff for them to do and/or talk about and sometimes I just can't come up with enough to fill a chapter. The first "multi-day" chapter will be Chapter 8, 7 is continuation of 6. I have a good idea of where I can put a second one but beyond that I'm not sure.

dbzneon – Lizzie and Gordo having slept together isn't going to really affect how Lizzie reacts to Kate and Gordo. I'm sure it'd be in the back of her mind but it's a part of their past that they're trying to move on from. In Chapter 8, I talk a little bit about Lizzie and Gordo's romantic relationship, why it didn't work out, where they stand with each other, etc. Without giving alot away, when Lizzie and Miranda find out what happened over the summer, there will be a small confrontation. They'll be angry at first but its more from they don't want to see him get hurt by Kate and they haven't seen the change in Kate, yet.

HeatherRiddle, sally – Thanks for the reviews.

A/N – "Thoughts"

Chapter 7 – Attraction

As Kate and Gordo walked down the street towards the connivance store to get the snacks for the movies, the clouds that were rolling in earlier started becoming darker. After loading up on junk food and soda, they were about halfway back to the apartment, when the sky let loose. Since there was no way they would be able to make it back to the apartment before getting drenched, they just kept walking at their normal pace.

Reaching the apartment building, they walked through the lobby, leaving large puddles behind from their drenched clothes. As they were waiting for the elevator, Kate glanced over at Gordo and grinned. To her, he looked adorable with his black, curly hair all wet and plastered to his head.

On the way up, Gordo tried to keep his eyes focused on the closed elevator doors in front of him. He was trying to use anything to distract him from looking at Kate. Gordo knew that if he just glanced at her, he wouldn't be able to look away. The rain had caused her clothes to cling to her, showing off the curves of her body. Closing his eyes, he let out a breath and tried to keep his body under control.

"Think about anything else. Think about the basketball game Hill Ridge played against Jefferson when Danny dove head first into the stands and cutting his forehead open," he grinned a little as it temporarily took his mind off of Kate. But then just as quickly, it returned as an image of Kate in her cheerleading uniform passed through his mind. "Damn it!"

As they walked inside the apartment, they dumped their junk food on the kitchen tables. "Why don't you go in the bathroom and get out of your wet clothes. I'll bring ya a robe or something to change into," Kate told him as she was taking the stuff out of the wet bags.

"Uhuh," Gordo mumbled absentmindedly as he tried not to drool as he saw how Kate's wet shirt was clinging to her.

Looking up, Kate caught him staring at her. She watched Gordo's eyes go wide, look away, and his cheeks blush. Quickly realizing what he had been staring at, she looked down a little embarrassed herself but a small smile still tugged at her lips. "I better go change too."

Too embarrassed to really say anything, Gordo just nodded and quickly walked away towards the bathroom. Kate let a little giggle escape her lips as she walked into her room and to her own bathroom.

A few minutes later, Gordo had just grabbed a towel out of the linen closet, when he heard the door open.

"I got you a," Kate started to stay but quickly trailed off as she watched Gordo quickly wrap the towel around his waist.

"Kate!"

Biting her lip, she continued to just stare at him with a small smile. Gordo started to get uncomfortable. "Kate?"

"I got you a robe," she said after snapping out of her trance. Gordo took the robe and quickly put it on. "My Dad and Annie collect these things from all the fancy hotels they've been too." Pausing for a moment, Kate scolded herself as she found her eyes wondering back to Gordo's waist. "We can throw your clothes in the dryer while we watch the movies."

After being thoroughly embarrassed, Gordo looked up at her as he put the robe on. She was wearing a light pink robe that fell to mid-thigh. Picking his clothes up, he followed Kate into a small enclave that had a washer and dryer. Tossing the clothes and towel into the dryer, they left them to dry as they walked back to the kitchen.

Standing next to each other, they started picking at the junk food that littered the kitchen table. After standing around in an awkward silence for a few minutes, Gordo glanced up at Kate. He couldn't help but snicker and a small smile spread across his face as he noticed some chocolate on the corner of Kate's mouth.

"What?" Kate asked him.

"You have some chocolate around your mouth." He watched in amusement as Kate wiped her mouth but still missed it. Stepping close to her, he cupped her face with his hand, "I'll do it." As he whipped the chocolate away with his thumb, he seemed to get mesmerized by her blue eyes.

Kate slipped an arm around his waist and Gordo leaned in to give her a simple kiss. But as soon as their lips meet, the kiss instantly deepened.

Stumbling into the living room, Kate's free hand immediately grabbed the knot that tied Gordo's robe closed. Bumping into the back of the couch, Kate pressed herself against Gordo and caused them to lose their balance, flipping them over the back of the couch.

Kate landed on top of Gordo and quickly pulled the knot undone, opening Gordo's robe. While they were making out, Kate's robe had slowly loosened. Gordo threaded his arms inside her robe, wrapped them around her, and gently ran his hands across her back. Kate let out a soft moan against Gordo's lips.

As Kate's robe finally came undone and opened, they were very close when she suddenly felt this was wrong. "No! This isn't right! We gotta stop before it goes to far."

"Gordo, stop please," she said in an almost whimper against his lips.

Gordo stopped and just held her. Looking into her eyes, "Kat?" He grew nervous as he watched Kate's eyes start to tear up.

"This isn't right," she whispered. Gordo loosened his hold on her and she sat up while pulling her robe around her, tying it haphazardly. "I…I," Kate moved to the end of the couch, pulling her legs up against her chest and wrapped her arms around herself.

Closing his eyes and letting out a deep breath, trying to calm his body, he closed his robe and sat up next to her. "What's wrong?" he asked gently putting a hand on her back.

"I don't want our first time to just be a lust filled groping session. I want it to be special." She put her head against her knees and a few tears started to fall.

Wrapping her in a tight hug, Gordo nuzzled her hair and whispered into her ear. "Kat, please stop crying. I'm in no rush. If you're not ready, just tell me."

"But you'll leave me," Kate mumbled softly against her knees.

"Leave?" Gordo asked in surprise as he picked his head up. "I'm not going anywhere Kat."

Kate picked her own head up and looked at him. "But when I don't have sex with a guy, he leaves."

"They were jerks. I don't want to do anything you're not ready for. I can wait, when the time comes it'll be worth the wait."

Kate gave him a small smile and wiped her eyes. "Thanks David." As he smiled back at her, she looked at him for a few moments and something inside her clicked. "I know we're not ready to have sex but there are other ways to be intimate with someone. I want to be closer to him." she thought as she wiped her eyes.

Grabbing his hand, Kate stood up and pulled Gordo up to his feet. "Kate?" Gordo asked a little confused.

"There is other stuff we can do," Kate playfully suggested as she lightly kissed him.

Gordo arched his eyebrows at her, "Kate, I don't want to push you. I don't want you to,"

Kate shook her head no and looked at him very seriously, "You're not pushing me. I want to do this with you." She gave him a small devious smile as she led him into her bedroom.
