I'm so excited, and I feel so loved. I was just clicking away at the links on the log in screen, when I saw that I was on the favorites list of 3 users and the update alert list of 4. So thanks LiLwhitegurl89, Co0kieMonster09, AbbyGrl, and Winter Blaze. You guys are great, and I look forward to reading more of your stories, (even if I don't review). This chapter is for you guys and all of my reviewers also!
Lizzie still hadn't put on much weight since she had been pregnant. Gordo was so sweet and wouldn't let her lift a thing, and if there was something she wanted, even if it was impossible to get due to the season, he'd get it. It was as if Lizzie had control of the world, and who knows, maybe she did. With their wedding approaching quick, Lizzie and Gordo were putting the last minute details together. Dress fittings, Tux fittings, Bridesmaid dresses being altered, Miranda finishing her dress since she designed it, and parents getting their last words in to try to get their way.
"Gordo, Do I look like I've gained weight?" Lizzie asked looking in the mirror before going to her final dress fitting.
"Sweetie, you look fine, besides it wouldn't be right if you weren't gaining weight. It wouldn't be good for David Jr."
"Who says it's gonna be a boy, and even if it is who says I'm gonna name him David Jr?"
"Because you'll want another me running around this world. Cause I'm so sweet," Gordo said running around the room to dodge Lizzie." and kind, and gentle, and you love me almost as much as I love you." He finished coming up behind her wrapping his arms around her waist, placing his hands on her stomach and kissing her cheek.
"How did your parents take the news?" Lizzie questioned breaking the silence that had fallen over them while staring into the mirror at their reflections.
"They said, and I quote, At least you guys are married. Then after the shock wore off, mom wanted to call you and you two go out and buy stuff."
"That sounds like mom minus the married part. She just wanted to call your mom and they buy all the stuff together. I finally got her to understand that we are decorating the babys room the way we want it here, and that she can have it anyway she wants it at her house."
"Yeah, if I didn't know better I'd say that they were out shopping now."
"You know, they probably are." Lizzie said tuning around in Gordos arms, kissing him and pushing him onto the bed.
"Should we be doing this?"
"Are you declining an open invitation to please your beautiful wife?"
"No mam, I just wanted to keep David Jr. safe."
"Oh, shut up and love me!" Lizzie replied planting a lip lock on Gordo.
Meanwhile
"Lizzie? Gordo? We're back from Aruba!" Miranda yelled into the quiet house. "Where could they be? Don't they want the presents we bought them?" She asked Larry as he brought the bags into the house.
"Miranda," Larry started when he realized that the house wasn't as quiet as it seemed. "Why don't we go grab a bite to eat, maybe they'll be here when we get back."
"Well, alright. Let me get my jacket out of Lizzies room."
"Okay sweetheart. . . . Wait Randa!"
"Lizzie! Gordo! OH MY GOD! I'M SO SORRY!"
"Don't go in there." Larry said sitting on the couch.
After the embarrasing moment, Miranda and Larry decided to indeed get a bite to eat and then Miranda and Lizzie would go to her dress fitting. Gordo and Larry would go do the man thing for a while then they would all meet up for dinner someplace of Lizzies chosing.
"I'm so glad that the wedding is three days away, at least I'll be able to fit into my dress that way. I hope that I don't have another spell though. Mom and Dad still don't know about the last one I had. Oh, I'm sorry Miranda. I'm being insensitive." Lizzie babbled walking out of te bridal shop towards the car.
"Don't worry about me Lizzie, I'm happy for you guys, really. I'm anyway deserves a baby you two do. You guys have been through so much and it's obvious that you love each other. To be honest, I'm a little envious. I know that Larry and I will never be as close as you two are. But thats only because what you guys have is on a deeper level than all other couples. You and Gordo, it's like you guys are in the same body. You both know when something is wrong with the other one, you always understand whats going on with the other, you know what the other one is thinking. I could go on and on, but you catch my drift." Miranda finished getting into the passengers seat.
"Yeah, I do. But what you and Larry have is very special too. You guys have been together since high school. Most high school sweethearts don't work out to be married." Lizzie replied grabbing Mirandas hand.
"I know Liz, I know. Hey, you want to do some baby shopping before we meet the guys?"
"Sounds like an awesome plan to me, but only if you feel up to it." Lizzie said sympatheticly.
"You know I do McGuire." Miranda playfully quipped.
"It's not McGuire anymore Sanchez." Lizzie said backing out
"Point taken Mrs. Gordon."
"Liz! Look at these John Deere crib sets! It's so cute." Miranda squealed.
"It looks like something Shane would have gotten. My god, I haven't thought of him in years."
"Well, alright then." Miranda said changing the subject. "Look at these Ballerina Bears. These would be perfect if you have a girl!"
Suddenly Lizzie fell to her knees and then passed out.
Lizzie's Dream
"Liz, I miss you so much. I hope that you'll give me a chance to show you that I can be what you want. I know I'll never be Gordo, but I want to be there for you just as much. God, why did tthis happen to you?" Shane cried sitting beside a hospital bed in a room covered in beautiful flowers.
"LIZ! Come on sweetie, wake up!" Gordo shouted with tear falling freely.
"Gor... Gordo? Where did you come from?" Lizzie said waking up.
"Liz, Larry and I were getting stuff to start the nursery with. We saw Miranda flipping out so we had to run over here. You think you can stand?" Gordo said relieved that his wife was okay.
"Yeah, I guess I need to eat something." Lizzie replied getting to her feet.
"Alright. Larry, you and Miranda go to, where do you wanna go hon?"
"Uhm, how about somewhere with lots of seafood?"
"Okay, you guys go to Pappas. Lizzie and I will be behind you. I just want a table ready so she doesn't have to be on her feet like this."
"No problem dude." Larry said escorting his wife to their car.
"Liz, you think I could show you something?"
"Yeah. I'm fine now... Really."
"Alright." Gordo led Lizzie to a place where they had all the cribs set up in the nursery sets like a little babys room. "I'm thinking maybe these ballerina bears for a girl, or John Deere for a boy, or Bambi for both."
"Are you saying you want twins?" Lizzie asked while heading out of the store.
"No, but I am telling you that it could be a possibility. You never knew this, but I had a twin sister that was a still born." Gordo told her throwing his arm over her shoulders.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Gordo." Lizzie said snuggling into his side
"It's alright. I'm just glad that we are happily married, getting married all over again in a few days, and we're having a little Gordon together." Gordo said leading Lizzie through the parking lot.
"Me too, and if theres a boy, His name will be David Gordon Jr." Lizzie chirped sitting inot her seat.
Gordo grinned walking around to his side of the car. This was indeed happy times If only they would stay this way.
Next chapter will be the wedding, I just thought this would be a good place to stop here. I'm getting back to being comfortable writing this again. I was stuck for so long, and now, I'm fixed! By the way, I don't own a darn thing. Although, a John Deere hat would be nice. For those who care about my personal life. I'm going to Oklahoma for an unknown amount of time to work things out with Shane, and there might be a wedding of my own if things work out between us like they have so many times before!
