Don't Speak

Prologue

(Mitchie's POV)

I walked to the docks, grinning. Nothing could be better, or at least, that's what I thought. I saw Shane sitting against a canoe, deep in thought. Whoa, he looked so… so… I can't even describe it. His hair was windswept, yet it still looked like he's worked on it for hours. His face was illuminated by the sunset on the horizon, accenting his features perfectly. He looked like a god. And I know that I am lucky to even just be his friend, even though I am always wishing that we were more than that.

I sat beside him and watched as he studied the sky.

"See anything interesting?" I asked.

He jumped up, surprised, and I giggled. He turned to me and his mouth formed my favorite smile. He ran a hand through his hair, and I couldn't stop myself from wishing that I was the one doing that.

"Nah, just thinking about stuff," he answered, "…us," he mumbled.

I looked at my hands.

"I'm sorry for lying Shane. I just wanted… I just wanted to fit in for once. I don't have many friends at home, and I just thought that maybe I could be someone here. And then Tess looked all disgusted when I told her about my dad, and I just got so intimidated. I should've at least told you, and I'm sorry that I didn't."

He didn't answer for a while, and I was preparing myself to leave.

"I'm sorry, I'll just go now."

I got up to leave, but he grabbed my wrist and pulled me back down. I felt so many sensations in my arm as soon as we touched.

"I understand, Mitchie. I know what it feels like to be intimidated. And I'm sorry for overreacting at beach jam. I should've just heard you out, but I didn't, and I apologize for that."

I smiled and he looked at me that way again, the way he did after he sang to me.

"What?" I asked.

He leaned forward, and before I knew it, his lips were softly pressed on mine. God, it's just like I always imagined my first kiss to be. His lips are so warm, so soft. I move my lips in synchronization to his and I can't even begin to explain how it felt.

He pulled away, but let his lips linger on mine while he spoke.

"I'm sorry about that too, but I just had to or I would've exploded."

I smiled against his mouth.

"Well, we wouldn't want that."

And then I kissed him again.

"And that's how my summer ended," I said, finishing my story.

"Wow, that's… amazing!!!" Lena screamed over the phone.

See, I got home from Camp Rock yesterday. Now, I'm sitting on my bed eating chocolate, while I explain my summer to my best friend. Lena lives in Dallas, and we met there when we were three. I lived in Dallas up until last year, but me and my Texan friends are still in contact.

"Oh, Mitchie, guess what?!"

"A purple platypus is going to take over the world?!" I shrieked.

I could imagine her expression.

"No… we're moving to Wyckoff!"

I shrieked and squealed for a good two minutes with Lena.

"Now way!!" I yelled.

"Yes way! Dany, Ben, Georgi, Ryan and I are all moving into your neighborhood!"

"How?" I asked.

"Well, since it's senior year, and we wanted to graduate with you, our parents agreed to let us move here by ourselves and move in with you!! And then your mom agreed, and we'll be there tomorrow!"

I shrieked again and heard my mom laughing behind me.

"I guess Lena told you?" she asked and I nodded.

"I got to go now, see you tomorrow Mitchie!"

This was going to be the bestest year ever!! All my Dallas friends are going to graduate with me, I'm dating Shane, and I have so many people to talk to now!

And then I found my self without Caitlyn, without all of my summer friends. But the worst part was that I found myself without Shane.
