Disclaimer: I know this is a hard pill to swallow, but I don't own the show. I know.I was just as surprised as you are.
A/N: I wasn't really expecting any reviews to be honest, but thanks anyways for the ones I did get. I'm just letting all of you know that I'm going to be updating frequently so look forward to that.
David Gordon was contemplating how in fact he was going to break the news to his friends. He himself was just starting to grasp it all, but now he had to figure out a way to break the news to his two best friends.
Lizzie McGuire was absolutely glowing. Summer had just begun, and already this was the best summer she had ever shared with Miranda and Gordo. They had been out almost every night together; going out, staying up late, soaking up the sun--just enjoying summer. Everything was going just as the three had promised each other. Everything was perfect! Well..almost everything. The last two days, Gordo had made excuses as to why he couldn't come along with her and Miranda. Something was bothering him and she had no idea what it was. She made a point to confront him about it soon.
As these thoughts floated through her mind, her computer made a sound signifying she had an instant message. She quickly walked over to her computer to see who it was from. Speak of the devil!

BlondeLiz: bye
Hmm..that was a little weird. I wonder what he wants to tell us? Maybe he's finally gonna tell us what's been going on these past couple of days. Oh well..I'm sure it's nothing bad.
Little did she know, she was in for a surprise that would throw her entire would upside-down.
"Hey guys!" Gordo said as he opened the front door as two girls entered his living room.
"Hey Gordo!" Miranda said, oblivious to the fact that he looked like he hadn't got much sleep lately. He also wore a gloomy look on his face that was covered with a forced smile. Gordo thought he was hiding his true feelings well when Miranda responded like her normal self. But this didn't get past Lizzie. She saw his fake enthusiasm when he had greeted them.
"Gordo," Miranda said.
"Yeah?"
She let out a slight laugh before speaking, not really thinking that there was a possibility one of her best friends was about to move away. "Why are there so many boxes in your living room?"
Lizzie hadn't even noticed. She was too focused looking at Gordo, trying to figure out what was wrong. It wasn't until Miranda had said something that her eyes began to roam around the room.
"So you noticed?" he said trying to ease some of the tension that he was certain was present.
She laughed. "It's kind of hard not to notice them." She clapped her hands in front of her as if to get down to business. " So what's going on?"
He stumbled through his words.
"What's goin' on Gordo?" Lizzie said as she spoke for the first time since entering through the door.
"I'll tell you guys as soon as we sit down. Since there isn't anywhere to sit in here, let's go up to my room. Okay?"
Both the girls nodded in agreement and followed him up the flight of stairs to his room. Lizzie noticed on the way to his room, that each room they passed was full of boxes. She started getting a little freaked out not knowing exactly what was taking place before her very eyes.
When they finally reached his room, they noticed that his room, much like the others, was full of boxes. The only things left were: his mattress on the floor, his laptop, and three folding chairs which were obviously set up for this very occasion. Only an idiot wouldn't know what was taking place. But the idea was so unthinkable, that it never crossed Lizzie nor Miranda's mind.
"Take a seat," he said pointing to the chairs.
They all took a seat as he took the end. He took a deep breath and looked at both of them. Damn... this is gonna be really hard.
Lizzie noticed how, how, well..she didn't know what kind of expression he had on. It was a mix of fear, sadness, depression, etc. "Gordo, what's wrong?" she said with great concern.
"Uh, well, uh..." he took another deep breath.
"This is really bad, isn't it?" Miranda asked, looking at both her friends.
"Okay I'm just gonna come right out and say it."
"Just go for it, Gordo." Miranda said. "I'm sure it's not as bad as you think it is."
For some reason, Lizzie knew that deep down, this news wasn't going to be something she wanted to hear.
"I've got some bad knews you guys. I-I'm moving."
"That's it?" Miranda said, standing up and laughing. "Whew! I thought it was gonna be bad!"
"It IS bad!" he said as he stood up with anger in his voice.
"Gordo relax!" Lizzie said as she stood between both her friends. "Why is it so bad?"
"Because I'm moving to New York!"
"New York!" Lizzie said in disbelief. "What? Why? When? For how long?"
"I'm moving to New York. Why? Because my parents are being relocated. When? I'm three days. For how long? Most likely forever."
A/N: There you have it, my fellow writers. Chapter two, just as I promised. Much longer than my first chapter, but that was just a little intro. Once again, I'd like to ask you to please review. But hey, if you don't want to, that's your business. I'm gonna keep on writing, because that's just what I like to do.
