Chapter 16. Jericho
Lizzie's life at Julliard was great. She and Isabella were like sisters, they had lots of friends and they were very popular and good at their classes. Besides, Kate went by to visit all the time, Larry did it often and, for Kate's birthday, the girls went to NYU and found Miranda and Ethan there too. Much to Kate's dismay, Ethan proposed in the middle of the campus, and all the people that were there clapped when they hugged and kissed after her teary nod and he placed a ring in her finger. Gordo showed up too, and suddenly all of them had urgent plans so they ran off, leaving them alone.
"So… how's Tisch working on you?" she asked, nervous.
"Pretty good… I love it in there. How are you at Julliard?"
"Omigosh, it's so… coolie!" he smiled at her all time favorite word. "I mean, I love my classes and Bella is there for me, so… I've got everything I want," she said, before adding under her breath. "Almost". She looked up and smiled at him. "Look at us! We're so ridiculous! We are more grown ups now, we don't have to be nervous around each other!" He nodded.
"I loved what we had, but it's apparently over…" he said.
"Do you remember when we were the 'it' couple? You became the hottest guy in Hill Ridge…"
"And you finally assumed your place," Gordo finished. She smiled, blushed lightly and looked down. Her long hair was playing with the wind, covering her face. Gordo held out his hand and placed her blonde locks behind her ear and he looked at her for a long time, seeing his first and only love, now a woman. "Have you ever wondered…?" she cut him.
"Gordo, the 'What Ifs' just hurt you. They are what you wanted to happen and didn't" she took a long, deep breath. "But I won't lie to you. I did thought about it" She leaned in closer. "We have to do this. Goodbye, Gordo…" she gave him a sweet, quick kiss. "I love you," she whispered and ran away. He stood there, watching her.
"I love you too…" he muttered.
End of chapter.
"Hop on a
fast train out of town
Downside up and Upside down
Going fast
is going slow
What could have been we'll never know
In this
place that has no name
I can't remember why I came
Then I hear
you whisper low
One more mile to Jericho
Nothing is ever what
it seems
When you live inside your dreams
The walls will
tumble
the walls will tumble
But I'm not gonna cry
My
heart wont crumble
My heart wont crumble
If we ever say
goodbye
Everybody gets the joke
Where's the fire?
Where's
the smoke?
Money, love and jealousy
Something's got a hold on
me
But I will follow where you go
One more mile to Jericho
The
walls will tumble
the walls will tumble
But I'm not gonna
cry
My heart wont crumble
My heart wont crumble
If we ever
say goodbye
One more mile
One more kiss
One more
word
One more wish
And love will save us
This I know
From
this place called Jericho
The walls will tumble
the walls
will tumble
But I'm not gonna cry
My heart wont crumble
My
heart wont crumble
If we ever say goodbye"
