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: Here's your bonus chapter as I promised. lol! Sounds like you're on a gameshow or something.


That night Gordo felt worse after breaking the news to his friends. He thought he'd feel better after getting it all off his chest, in a way he did feel better about it. He didn't have to worry about telling them anymore. But when Lizzie left he felt like a piece of shit. He saw the hurt in her eyes, and heard the pain in her voice. Gordo never felt worse than when he saw his best friend in pain, and the fact that he caused it, felt a million times worse. He felt like he had betrayed her in some way. He had to call her, make things better. Just then, his phone began to ring.

"Hello?" he said.

"Hi," Lizzie said in a low voice. Speak of the devil!

"Look Lizzie I'm really sorry." he spoke with great urgency.

"No Gordo, I'm sorry. I know that you've had enough to worry about these last couple of days, and I know that I didn't help by storming out of there today."

Gordo smiled into his receiver. "It's okay."

"So what do you wanna do tomorrow?" he asked in a better a more upbeat tone.

"Tomorrow?" she said as a smile slowly crept on her face.

"Yeah! We still have two days before I have to leave. Don't think you're rid of me yet, McGuire!"

She laughed. There was another thing he was going to miss.

"I don't know."

"Just make sure you're up early tomorrow!" he said before hanging up.

Usually she hated waking up early, but for Gordo, she would make the exception.


"Lizzie!"

"Wake up, girl!"

"C'mon McGuire, it's time to get up!"

"C'mon!"

Lizzie opened her eyes to see her two best friends shaking her awake.

"What?" she said.

"C'mon McGuire! I told you to get up early. I knew you wouldn't so I called Miranda over so that we could both get you up."

"Does it really take two people to get me out of bed?" she said as she stood out of bed.

"Apparently..." Miranda said in a low voice.

Lizzie shot her a look, and Miranda shot one back. This was pointless, Lizzie always lost so she quickly gave up. The three of them laughed.

"Hi kids!" Jo said as she entered the room.

"Hey." they said altogether.

"I'm making breakfast. You mind giving me a hand Miranda?"

"Sure. No problem."

"Okay, great." Jo said as she walked out of the room.

"I'll be right back you guys," Miranda said as she left the room smiling. Only Gordo caught Miranda's weird expression.

Lizzie yawned as she stole a glance at her clock. "it's 6:30!"

"Yeah," he said. "And?"

"And! It's early!"

"Hey," he said as he took a seat on her bed. "I warned you last night McGuire."

She sat down next to him. "So where are we going today?"

"I don't know yet."

She laughed. "You wake me up at 6am, and you don't even know where we're going?"

"Ah hah! That's exactly why I woke you up early. Because we need to plan it all out."
"Whatever."

"So get dressed. I'm gonna go downstairs to help your Mom and Miranda." He picked one of her stuffed animals up off the floor. "Oh! And by the way, I woke you up at 6:30 not 6:00." He said as he lightly hit her in the face with the stuffed animal.

She grabbed the animal away from him and hit him right back. He expected this, so he grabbed one of her pillows and took a swing. She dropped the animal grabbed one of her pillows and took a swing at him. They quickly found themselves in a pillow fight. He thought he had taken it a little too far when he smacked her with the pillow and she yelped in pain.

"Ouch! That really hurt!"

They put their pillows down. He was genuinely concerned until she said, "Just kidding!"

"You're gonna pay, McGuire!"

They began shoving each other back and forth trying to see who would fall first. He thought victory was his when his last shove sent her falling back on her bed, but at the last moment she grabbed his shirt and brought him down with her.

"All right guys, me and Mrs. McGuire finished making breakf--" Miranda stopped when her eyes settled on her two best friends. Gordo was lying right on top of Lizzie, and they were both laughing. When the door opened they both looked to see who it was.

"Man," Miranda said as she crossed her arms and leaned against the door. "I can't leave you two alone for one minute."

They both laughed. "C'mon Miranda," Gordo said as he raised himself of off Lizzie. "We were just fooling around."

"Hey, call it whatever you want," Miranda said with a small laugh. "Breakfast is ready."

"I'd better get dressed." Lizzie said as she walked to her closet.

"Okay," Gordo said as he followed Miranda out the door.

"Save me some food, Gordo," Lizzie called after him.

He poked his head through her door. "Can't make any promises." And with that, he dashed downstairs to grab some breakfast.
