Chapter 2. Don't Speak
"Gordo, wait!" Lizzie cried, running after him. He turned around and stared at her.
"Lizzie, it's too late," Gordo replied, looking down. "I- You let your oportunity pass right beside you" Tears filled Lizzie's eyes and she stared at him.
"Why?" she asked. He gazed up, only to see her face bathed in tears. "Gordo, you know I love you" she grabbed his hands and led them to her heart.
"Lizzie, don't do this..." he whispered. "You know we are only good at hurting each other" Lizzie continued to sob quietly, while he looked down.
"So, this is it?" she asked. He nodded sadly. "I- I always loved you"
"I'm sorry," he replied. More tears streamed down her face as she nodded.
"How did I let this happen?" she whispered. He looked at her, then started walking away. Lizzie sat on a step, placed her head in her hands and cried.
Gordo, a few feet away, turned and looked at her sobbing figure. It broke his heart leaving her like this, but she had done the same to him a year ago. Each step hurting more than the other, he continued walking.
"Lizzie..." 17 years old Gordo said. Lizzie turned to look at him and Kate snorted.
"What do you want, Gordon?" Kate inquired. Lizzie looked down.
"Lizzie, can I talk to you?" he asked. Lizzie nodded and walked with him to a side.
"Now, what do you want?" Lizzie asked, looking back at the cheerleaders. Gordo sighed and rolled his eyes.
"Liz, we didn't talk about yesterday," he said. "I mean... you told Kate about us so you broke it off" Lizzie rolled her eyes.
"Look, Gordo... I can't be with you. I never loved you," she replied. "Besides, you're a loser. Why would I want to be with someone like you?"
"Yeah, you're right. I'm a loser," he said. "You didn't say so last month, when we made love" Lizzie glared him.
"Okay, first of all... don't rub that on my face. I was stupid back then," she snapped. "Second..."
"Are you done yet, Liz?" Kate's voice interupted. Lizzie nodded. "Cya loser" Gordo rolled his eyes again as Kate went back with her group.
"If you ever cared about me, don't walk away," Gordo whispered. Lizzie stared into his eyes for a second then looked back at Kate. "Please, Lizzie... I still love you" he grabbed her hands and kissed them. Lizzie slid them off.
"But I don't. Cya Gordon," she replied, walking away.
"Lizzie..." Gordo said, walking back to her. She held up her hand.
"No, Gordo. Move on," she said. "I lost you when I walked away... You don't have to stay here with me" He sat next to her. "Gordo, go"
"I need to talk. We need to..." he said. She sighed.
"Gordo, I already know it. Just... save me the tears," Lizzie whispered. "I didn't know I had fallen that deep for you when I became popular. I'm sorry, ok?"
"...I never thought it'd be so hard forme to move on either," Gordo whispered back. "I loved you, dammit!"
"Yeah, but you don't anymore. I never stopped," Lizzie replied, looking him in the eye for a second.
"I-," Gordo started. She shook her head.
"Just leave," she said. He looked at her again, then got up.
"I can't leave you like this," he insisted. She smiled sadly.
"I'll be fine. It's not the first time I cry after a fight," she said. He smirked and walked to his car, while she sat there.
"Liz-zay! Lookin' good!" Ethan exclaimed. Lizzie smiled. She was wearing a strapless baby-pink dress that clung her in all the right places. It showed her perfect tiny waist and all the guys stared at her.
"Cute," Kate approved. Lizzie's heart jumped with joy. She might actually have a chance to win Prom Queen. "So, they were thinking about doing that 'Carrie' thing... Jeb wants to let Gordon win as King"
"But... that's really mean, guys. I'm out," Lizzie replied. Jeb (the most popular guy) rolled his eyes.
"Well, remembering your past together, you were obviously going to back out," he stated. Lizzie glared him.
"Okay, you do that and I'll spill all those little secrets I found out being your designated driver. I know too many stuff about you, or you would've kicked me out sooner," Lizzie said. His eyes glowed and he shook his head.
"Fine, we won't do it. Later, guys" Jeb walked out and Lizzie smiled. Kate stared at her.
"Say, that was, like, so not cool, McGuire," Kate said. Lizzie rolled her eyes.
"Kate, I've been your best friend and designated driver too. I practically drove all your drunk asses back home... more than once. You think I can't threat you too?" Lizzie said, her eyes glowing menacingly.
"Y-You wouldn't," Kate replied. Lizzie's eyes glowed more.
"Try me," she said. Kate gave her one last look, huffed and walked away. After a while, Lizzie was announced Prom Queen. She smiled and went up. To her surprise, Gordo asked her to dance. She said yes and he led her to the dance floor.
"Why are you dancing with me?" she asked him. He smiled.
"I should be asking you the same question," he replied. She smiled a little.
"Lizzie! I can't believe you're doing that!" Kate's voice shrieked. Lizzie looked at her.
"Kate, you should really stop manipulating Lizzie. She's not your puppet," Gordo said. Lizzie looked down as Kate grabbed her by the arm.
"Not talking to you, Gor-dork!" Kate snapped. Gordo's hurtful eyes turned to Lizzie.
"Liz?" he whispered. Lizzie looked down, tears running down her cheeks.
"Go away, Gordon," she whispered back. He looked at her again and walked out. Lizzie glared Kate and ran to the parking lot, crying.
Gordo bit his lip and looked back nervously. Lizzie sat there, thinking. He bit his lip again, this time harder, making it bleed. He thought about it again and ran back to her, cutting her chain of thoughts with a kiss.
"...Gordo?" Lizzie said, surprised. He sat next to her again and buried his head in his hands.
"Damn you, McGuire!" he said. "I still can't get over you" she noticed the blood on his lip.
"Gordo, you have blood..." she pointed. He smiled.
"Well, now so do you. Let me wipe that off," he said, pulling her for another kiss. She smiled at
him and recluded in his arms. He held her, stroking her golden hair.
"I love you," she whispered. "I always did"
"So do I," he whispered back. "I never got a chance to get over you..."
"I'm glad you didn't. I couldn't survive without you anymore longer..." she rested her head on his chest and he kissed her softly on the lips. "What was that for?" she asked.
"No reason," he replied. "You're just too beautiful..." Lizzie kissed him again and ran her hands through his hair, deepening it. "I couldn't let you go"
"I couldn't let you walk away either..." she said. Her lips searched for his, in a need, and he helped her. They enlaced themselves in another kiss and got lost in that moment...
The End.
"You and me
We used to be together
Everyday together always
I really feel
That I'm losing my best friend
I can't believe
This could be the end
It looks as though you're letting go
And if it's real
Well I don't want to know
Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me cause it hurts
Our memories
Well, they can be inviting
But some are altogether
Mighty frightening
As we die, both you and I
With my head in my hands
I sit and cry
Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts (no, no, no)
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me cause it hurts
It's all ending
I gotta stop pretending who we are...
You and me I can see us dying... are we?
Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me cause it hurts (no, no, no)
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me cause it hurts
Don't tell me cause it hurts!
I know what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't speak,
don't speak,
don't speak,
oh I know what you're thinking
And I don't need your reasons
I know you're good,
I know you're good,
I know you're real good
Oh, la la la la la la La la la la la la
Don't, Don't, uh-huh Hush, hush darlin'
Hush, hush darlin' Hush, hush
don't tell me tell me cause it hurts
Hush, hush darlin' Hush, hush darlin'
Hush, hush don't tell me tell me cause it hurts"
