Lizzie fastened her tiara securely to her blonde hair and spritzed on some of her favorite perfume, Clinique Happy Heart. She still couldn't believe she had been crowned Homecoming Queen at the game last night. And Gordo was king! It was like a fairy tale. She looked at the clock hanging above her bed. Gordo would be here any minute. Sure enough, the doorbell rang and Jo, who had been waiting in the entryway with her videocamera for the past half hour, quickly opened it. Lizzie took a deep breath and made her way down the stairs.
Gordo couldn't hide his smile. He offered Lizzie his hand and helped her down the last few stairs.
"You look amazing," he said sincerely. Lizzie blushed.
"So do you," she told him. And he did. He had cut his curly brown hair into a shorter style and was wearing khaki pants and a black blazer with a sexy black tie. He gave Lizzie a kiss on the cheek and she felt her face flush. She looked outside and saw a black Hummer limousine.
"Oh, my God! Is that for us?" she breathed. Gordo nodded proudly.
"Nothing but the best for your royal highness," he teased. Lizzie bit her lip and smiled at him.
"You kids better get going," Jo said. "You don't want to be late."
"Bye mom. I'll be home later,"Lizzie called, letting Gordo escort her to the limo. Jo wiped a tear from her eye.
"They're just so adorable together," she told Sam. Sam watched the limo slowly pull away from the house.
"Gordo's a real gentleman," he observed. "He's a keeper."
"You didn't have to do all of this for me," Lizzie told Gordo as she looked around the limo. Gordo smiled shyly and looked up at her.
"I know. But I wanted to," he replied. "Do you have any idea how beautiful you look?" Lizzie tilted her head and looked into his eyes.He's sosexy, she thought. She put her hand gently on his face and leaned towards him, brushing her lips against his. Gordo returned the favor, drawing her closer and kissing her gently. They continued kissing until the limo came to a stop in front of Hillridge, and they separated, smiling coyly. As Gordo led Lizzie into the dance, Principal Young took notice.
"And now, please welcome your homecoming queen and king, Lizzie McGuire and David Gordon!" he exclaimed. Everyone applauded, except for Molly Parker, who leaned over to Caroline.
"God, they make me sick," she whispered. "Lizzie McGuire is going down."
