Disclaimer: I don't own the song "I remember" it belongs to Kenny Chesney.
A/N: I'm sorry that it took forever for me to update, I couldn't find the write song but now I found one and here goes the almost last chapter.
Lizzie went out with some co-workers, just because they felt that she need to go out more, so she left her daughter with her mom and dad. I guess tonight was like Karaoke night or something. Well her co-workers remembered that Lizzie sang in Rome back before she started high school. So they got her to get up there and sing a song for everyone.
Lizzie looked through the selection of songs, she finally found a song that she liked at the moment, and it was a song titled "I Remember" by Kenny Chesney.
Lizzie began to sing.
I'm sittin here alone
Thoughts of you run wild
I'm longin for your touch
Holded by your smile
No use tryin to erase
No one could ever take your place
Gordo walked in and he recognized that singing voice, he knew that he hasn't heard that sound in awhile, he came with some co-workers as well. He looked up towards the stage and he saw Lizzie. Then he began listening to the words of the song.
Well I remember how it used to feel
back when our love was strong and real
And I remember tears in your eyes
As I looked at you and said goodbye
All I want right now is to forget
Every single thing that I regret
And drown out these embers..but I remember
It's yesterday again
Here inside my mind
And I can't find a way
to leave your love behind
I wanna wake up to the day
Your memory won't stand in my way
Well I remember how it used to feel
back when our love was strong and real
And I remember tears in your eyes
As I looked at you and said goodbye
All I want right now is to forget
Every single thing that I regret
And drown out these embers..but I remember
Well I wanna wake up to the day
Your memory won't stand in my way
Well I remember how it used to feel
Back when our love was strong and real
And I remember tears in your eyes
As I looked at you and said goodbye
All I want right now is to forget
Every single thing that I regret
And drown out these embers..but I remember
And I remember..ohhhhhh
Oh I remember ya baby...
All of you my baby
Lizzie finished the song, and when she was singing the song she tried so hard not to look at Gordo. But in away she was singing the song to him, and he knew that to be true. She went to go sit with her co-workers, and just as they were beginning to leave, Gordo walked up and tapped Lizzie's shoulder. Lizzie turned around.
"Umm…I'll meet you guys out side." Lizzie told her co-workers.
"Are you sure?" One of them replied.
"Yeah…"
"Okay."
"Hello, Gordo?" Lizzie greeted.
"Hey, how've you been?" Gordo asked.
"Not all that good, you?"
"Same as you, to be quite honest."
"I figured that you'd be doing alright considering you had Charlie."
"Lizzie, we're not together anymore…plus she's not you."
"And you didn't notice that when you were in the office at the house? I bet you knew then that she wasn't me."
"Lizzie I'm sorry about that, it was a stupid mistake."
"I know that, but right now nothing could happen between us, I don't feel that I could trust you 100 right now. I wish that I could because I really want to trust you 100. I still love you and that won't change…"
"I love you as well and that won't change either. I regret everything that I've done."
"What you regret it now that you've lost everything, and just found out that what you've wanted all along was right under roof. I wish that you would've found that out sooner."
"I hope that one day we could resolve this, and not have so much tension between us. . And that you we could try again…"
"You'd like me to be able to give you a second chance? I would like to be able to but like I said not right now."
"Yeah I know that that's what you said, and I respect that. But don't you think that our daughter deserves to have both a mother and a father?"
"Yeah that would be fair, but life isn't fair! And don't you go and say that she deserves to have both a mother and a father when you weren't around all that much, so I was her mother and her father."
"And I regret not being around for her, I really do…I wish that I was there but I can't go back and change that! But you know that I've been working really hard trying to support our family and trying to make a name for myself… and I'm sorry that you had to be both her mother and her father…"
"You know it's not that hard to do both, well it was at first but after a few years I got used to, it wasn't as hard anymore…and the part that sucked the most is that Ethan was around her so often that she thought that he was her father, and I've had to correct her every single time, even Ethan's corrected her. You know I've thought about divorce before, but I could never bring myself to do it because I loved you so much and I thought that I needed someone to make me complete but I've found out that I don't because all that time that you weren't around I was independent. As long as I have her, I'm happy for now."
"That does suck that she called him dad, but with all the great opportunities that I had I couldn't pass them up, and I didn't want to make you guys stop what you were doing and travel with me and not be able to hang out and do things as a family because I would be constantly working…I'm glad that you didn't at the time, not that it stopped you this time. Well I'm glad that in all that time you found out that you can be independent. I would be happy if I had both you and our daughter."
"Well you can have her on your day off whenever that is, just make sure and call first that way we'll be home. If that sounded rude, I'm sorry it wasn't meant to. There are things that I would like to say to right now but I just can't bring myself to do so."
"Just tell me what you got to tell me."
"Well I got to go pick her up right now, so maybe you can call me up and we can set up a time and just talk about everything that is on our minds…and hopefully that will clear some of this up."
"Alright I'll call you. Will you tell her that I said Hi and that I love her, even if she doesn't really know who I am."
"Will do. Talk to you later"
"Talk to you later."
Lizzie walked out of the club hoping that she did patch up things with Gordo, but she knew that it would be too soon to do that.
A/N: I hope you liked this chapter, and sorry if it sucked.
