When Lizzie loses something important in her life it will take all her strength to recover something she never knew she had. She falls in love many times along the way. Has L/G
It seems I forgot my disclaimer. So I do not own Lizzie and Gordo... or anything you recognize. I only own the personalities and the OC's. Thanks
Chapter 4: MemoriesA few days later Lizzie had pretty much figured out what she wanted to do about everything. She had decided that she wanted to find her biological mother. She just wasn't sure how to go about finding her. She had also decided to keep her childhood home. When she turned 18 she would move back into it. She had already invited Miranda to movie in with her. Lizzie would take her old room and Miranda would take Matt's old room or the guest room. It was her choice. Lizzie didn't want her parents bedroom occupied. Everything was left the same as that day, the clothes Lizzie had thrown on the floor still there.
Lizzie wasn't that excited about her 18th birthday. She just wanted to get it over with. Her friends, however, had decided to carry on what her parents had planned, a surprise birthday party.
Adam, however, didn't think that it was a good idea. Miranda agreed with him but Gordo was so happy about it that she couldn't disagree with him. Her and Adam both thought that Lizzie wouldn't enjoy it. Nevertheless... Gordo had decided to go ahead.
Adam had gotten closer to Lizzie and he decided to get her something she needed for her birthday. With his parents help, he was hiring a private investigator to find her real parents. He wanted to be able to tell her where they were on the day of her birthday.
Miranda had decided to make a photo album/scrapbook of Lizzie's life.
Gordo decided to get Lizzie a friendship ring. He had already picked it out. It was white gold with a tiny diamond in the middle. He was very excited about it. Of course, when it came to Lizzie, he was always excited.
The night before Lizzie's birthday, Miranda, Gordo, Lizzie and Adam were sitting in Miranda's living room and Miranda decided to give Lizzie her present.
"Lizzie, I made this gift for you, and I've decided to give it to you early." She presented Lizzie the book.
As Lizzie took it she knew what it was. She unwrapped the paper carefully and tears came to her eyes.
The picture on the front had Lizzie's parents, Matt, Lizzie, Miranda and Gordo. Adam had taken it about two years ago during a snowball fight. Everyone had snow all over them.
She opened it to the first page and was flooded with memories. Her very first day of school, the day her parents let her baby sit Matt and the power had gone out, there was tons of pictures and even little notes. It made her feel so loved.
By the end of the night everyone was exhausted, Adam asked Lizzie if she wanted to go for a walk. She accepted and they left.
The nerve! Gordo thought. Well Lizzie knows better than to fall for him!
Apparently Lizzie didn't know better. She was falling for Adam, hard and fast.
When they were out on their walk, Adam was so excited about giving Lizzie her gift, he decided that like Miranda, he couldn't wait until the following day. He told her.
"Lizzie, I have something to tell you, about your birthday gift." He started.
"What! Adam!" She smiled, "You didn't have to get me anything!"
he kissed her and smiled back.
"Don't be silly! Anyways... I got you some information. About your mother."
"What?" Lizzie asked confused.
"Well when I heard that you wanted to find her, I hired a private detective, with my parents help of course, for your birthday. He just got back to me yesterday and it seems he found two women., H found them through the adoption agencies records. I narrowed it down between the two of them because you look exactly like her."
He handed her a card.
Lizzie took the card, in shock. She couldn't believe Adam was handing her her mother.
"She lives in Maryland Lizzie."
Lizzie looked at the card.

Lizzie started to cry.
"Hey sweetie, don't cry. Be happy! I wanted to make you happy." He kissed the top of her forehead.
"I am happy." She sniffled.
"Then why are you crying baby?"
"Because I am so happy! Thank you so much. You don't know what this means to me!" She hugged him and they stood there for a few minutes. Lizzie had totally forgotten about Gordo. She knew she felt more for Adam than she ever had for Gordo.
They started kissing. Adam sat down on the ledge behind them and had Lizzie sit on his lap. Lizzie loved the way his tongue traced the lining in her mouth. After a few minutes Adams hand started to lift the hem of her shirt and Lizzie came to her senses.
"Adam!"
"Hmmm?" He asked, barely stopping.
"We're in public!"
His hands stopped almost immediately and he moved away from her.
Damn! Lizzie cursed herself. She needed to learn to keep her mouth shut.
"Sorry babe!" He smiled at her.
He looked at her seriously.
"I have something to ask you."
Lizzie looked up at him...I wonder???
"Will you be my girlfriend?"
Lizzie started laughing at him and his face fell.
"This means no huh?" He asked her.
She stood up and pulled him with her. She kissed him. A deep long kiss.
"Of course I will be your girlfriend, Adam."
He smiled and spun her around.
"You have made me the happiest man in the world!"
They kissed again and made their way back to the house hand in hand.
Lizzie was a little scared at the thought of telling everyone about her and Adam.
Back at the house Miranda and Gordo were discussing Lizzie. Gordo had decided to tell Miranda about his feelings for Lizzie.
"Miranda, after all these years I have come to know that I love her." He looked in her eyes seriously. "I always have and always will. She is the one. The girl of my dreams."
The door opened just as Gordo finished and Adam and Lizzie walked in. Hand in hand. Gordo's face fell.
Lizzie was smiling, a real smile, the first one since graduation day and that made Gordo feel even worse, he wasn't the one that put that smile there, Adam was.
