Prompt # 13 - "I never expected that one day I'd open my closet and find…

I never expected that one day I'd open my closet and find my cousin sitting in the middle of the floor. I almost did not believe it at first, until she started talking.

"Hey Alex…what's up?" I screamed and pulled her into a hug. I hadn't seen her in so long. We would normally spend our whole summer together, but then her parents got her into Camp Rock. She went there, and I was proud of her, I really was. But I was stuck working at my parent's sub shop the whole summer.

"So…how was camp?" I asked, dragging her out of the closet. I sat on my bed, and Mitchie sat on my big fuzzy chair I just got. She then immediately moved her place and closed my door. She came and sat next to me on my bed, and I could see she was dying to tell me. Although I could see hesitation in her eyes. "Oh come on, Mitch. You can tell me anything. I won't tell a soul."

She then dove headfirst into her story, telling me about her new friends, new enemies, new confidence, and new crush. Wait, new crush? I held up my hand, signaling her to stop.

"Whoa, Mitch new crush already? Who is it? What does he look like?" I asked, giving her pleading eyes.

"Well…he's about an inch or two taller than me, he has dark brown, almost black hair, he has brown eyes, and…well…big muscles. He plays the guitar, writes his own songs, and sings. He has to be the nicest guy I've ever met." That was almost good enough for me, but I had to know a few more details.

"When did you meet him? And who is he?"

"I met him the last week of camp."

"WHO IS HE?" I practically screamed, jumping up and down on my bed.

"Umm…" She started, then, her phone went off, signaling she had a text. I grabbed her phone from next to her and read the text.

New text from: Shane

Sent: 3:06 pm

I hit the read button and was shocked to find this "Shane" person was the Shane Grey. Telling her he missed her. MY cousin Mitchie knew Shane grey. She was holding an actual conversation with him.

"Michelle Elizabeth Torres!"

"Alexandria Margarita Russo!"

"No, Mitchie. I'm being serious. Since when have you known Shane Grey?"

"Since the last week of camp…" At this I awhhed and asked her to tell me more about what he's like in person. She did, and I was glad she wasn't getting annoyed with me, like a certain friend named Harper would. This is why Mitchie was my best friend…because she could actually tolerate me. I scooted closer to her and watched her text her reply. I knew at that moment Shane liked her. I just kind of figured it out. And was I going to tell Mitchie? Of coarse, because friends tell each other everything.
