A/N: I'm working on a bundle of different Camp Rock oneshots (along with You've Got a Friend) with various pairings. This just happened to be begging to be posted since I love Nitchie. It takes place years after Camp Rock.
Disclaimer: I don't own any characters or places you recognize from Camp Rock. Their characters may be tweaked a bit, but hopefully not too much.
Goodbye
A Nate/Mitchie and Shane/Mitchie FanFiction
As told by Nate
"I want to be lost in this moment forever," I heard Shane whisper, rather loudly, in her ear in time with the song. I saw her stiffen in his arms. He was taking her in slow circles on the dance floor, right in front of me.
You see, things have been, shall we say, awkward between them lately. We became close friends as her and Shane became more distant. Shane's seemingly lost all his power to be romantic. He didn't ever do anything for her anymore. It's like he just stopped trying. I could and would give her the deserved treatment though. She'd be my princess. And she's planning to end their boring, repetitive relationship very soon so I can do just that.
I watched them continue to spin, her eyes locking with mine each time she'd face me, a pleading look in them. I grabbed my phone and dialed Caitlyn's number.
"Hello?"
"Hey Cait. Can you give Mitchie a call? She needed to talk to you about something important."
"I thought you guys were at her cousin's wedding?"
"We are, but please, just call her."
"Okay," she said confused and hung up.
I watched a moment later as Mitchie disentangled herself from Shane looking apologetic and reached in her purse for her phone.
"Oh hey Cait! I was hoping I'd hear from you soon. I needed to talk to you."
A pause.
"No, now's not a bad time. Let me just go in the other room so I can hear you better."
With a quick, again apologetic look to Shane, she left the dance floor, winking her thanks to me as she passed by to go talk to Caitlyn.
I looked down and shook my head. I hoped she breaks up with him soon. I don't know if I can go much longer with out her being mine. I looked up as someone pulled out a chair a couple down from mine.
"Hey Shane, having fun?" He nodded.
"Can I ask you a favor?" he asked after a few moments silence.
"Anything."
"Do you think you could help me pick out Mitchie's birthday present?"
"You haven't gotten her anything yet?" I asked shocked. Her birthday was in less then a week. I started buying her presents almost two months ago.
"I haven't had time. And I have no idea what she'd want," he defended.
"Shane," I groaned. "She's your girlfriend! You shouldn't have to come to me five days before her birthday to ask for help with her gift!"
"Who else would I go to?" he responded hotly. "You're the best at picking out presents, and you two are like best friends, you should know what she'd want."
"I do know what she wants! That's why I bought her presents two months ago!"
"Please? Just help me?"
"Help you what?" Mitchie asked sitting between us.
"Nothing sweetie," Shane smiled.
"Help him what?" she turned to me.
"Nothing Mitch, he just got himself a bit stuck in something and wants me to bail him out."
"Well then, are you going to help him?" I sighed.
"Yeah. There's no way I couldn't."
And there really was no way. I couldn't say no, then Mitchie would end up with a terrible present on her birthday from the person who was supposed to get her the best. Of course, no matter what I help him get her, it won't compare to all the gifts I got her. Most of mine are carefully thought out, personal gifts.
"I always knew you were a nice guy Nate," she smiled. I smiled back at the compliment.
"Thanks Nate, really man, this means a lot. We'll do it tomorrow or Monday okay?"
"Not tomorrow!" Mitchie interrupted.
"Why?" Shane asked. Mitchie rolled her eyes.
"Honestly Shane, do you remember anything? Tomorrow we're having my family over for my birthday party since everyone's already in town for the wedding."
"I thought we were having your party on your birthday?"
"That's the one we're throwing her," I informed.
"Oh. Well, what times this party tomorrow then?"
"Eleven," I said automatically. Mitchie smiled.
"Someone remembers these things!"
"You were invited?"
"You seriously just asked that?" Mitchie asked Shane, now annoyed. "I invited the two of you, Jason, Caitlyn and all your families."
"Oh."
"Yeah. Oh. I'm going to go find my cousin and his new wife," she huffed, getting up and leaving.
I looked to Shane. "That was stupid man. Very stupid."
A/N: Short chapter for now, but this is just to see how the story goes over. They'll get longer eventually.
