A/N: Umm in answer to a question this picks up practically exactly where Forbidden love ended. It picks on on the same night as when Lizzie went to the airoport to try and stop Paolo.

Lizzie looked through her closet on Saturday unsure what to wear. She didn't have a date that was bad enough. She thought about her "conversation" with Gordo in the park the other night. That had been weird. He had been acting so strange and getting mad at nothing. She sighed and pulled out a sparkly black skirt that was loose and would sway on her hips and went down to her knees. Next came the tank top of the same color and texture except for the silver stripe that ran across it diagonally.

Lizzie put on the out fit and looked at herself in the mirror. She thought of the other night and felt a sick sensation making it hard to breath for a few seconds. So this was it. It was really over for her as far as Paolo was concerned. But why?

She sighed and pushed the thought away. She wondered who Gordo would be going to the dance with. She dialed his number. "Hello?" Gordo came to the phone.

"Hi Gordo it's Lizzie."

"Lizzie? I thought you wouldn't be talking to me after the other night."

"Yea well I don't want…I don't wanna be in a fight with my best friend" Lizzie explained carnally.

"Well that's good."

"Hey Gordo so…who are you going to the dance with?"

"I'm not."

"Huh?"

"I'm going to the dance Lizzie."

'Why?" Lizzie asked a little shocked. But then this was Gordo right?

"Lizzie I don't want to go to the dance. I mean who would wanna go to the dance with me?"

"David Gordon you are going to go to that dance. I'll to the dance with you if you want." Lizzie suddenly felt weird. Why was she asking Gordo to the dance?

"Really Liz-Lizzie you'll go with me?"

"Gordo hello I just said I would" suddenly Lizzie got a flash back of the night before. Gordo had done something to his hair to make it…him…look kind of cut…no cool…no…she wasn't sure of the word to use. "Hey Gordo um…can you do that thing that you did to your hair yesterday? Please?"

"Why?"

"Because it looks cool…" Lizzie felt nervous about his answer.

Gordo sighed. Here comes the "cool" thing again. "Does it really matter how I look?" 'Please say it doesn't I want you to see me not the hair or the look!'

"Yes!" Lizzie said. Gordo hit his forehead. Well after all what was he expecting? Even Lizzie was a bit shallow when it came to guys.

"Ok Gordo pick me up in a hour I'll be waiting!" Lizzie said excited and hung up.

Kate and Isabella met at the Digital Bean two hours before the dance.

"So you're the Italian superstar?" Kate asked as she grabbed her coffee from the counter.

"And I here you're the school beauty queen?" Isabella said sitting down next to Kate.

"Yes in a way…a good was."

"Don't worry I know how it is" Isabella said lightly.

"I love that ring" Kate said looking at Isabella's golden ring with the emerald.

'Thank you. Present from my ex boyfriend."

"Oh so like what happened?"

"We started fighting a lot…" Isabella said.

"Boys can be jerks really" Kate said" Like all they want is sex."

Isabella laughed" Si and they think girls like us want that too."

Kate laughed too. "I think me and my on and off guy are finally patching it up. Except that they say he's going to the dace with some one else. You know I am so going to stand that girl up who ever she is!"

Isabella looked worried. "So who is this guy" she asked s carelessly as she coul.

"Oh you know Ethan Craft? Yea him."

Isabella gulped. 'Hey Kate do you think we are friends?"

"We sure are getting along good. Why?" Kate asked her brows lowering in suspicion.

"Umm nothing just…just asking" Isabella said her accent heavier the usual. "Umm I have to go!" She jumped up and ran out the door."

"Italians" Kate muttered.
