"Wow" That was all Mitchie could say as she noticed that Shane had set up a lantern, brought up the canoe, and even had a life vest for her. Mitchie tripped over a few things, and neither one knew how, but Shane ended up catching her.
"Sorry, I just… sorry." Mitchie blushed as she realized she was in Shane's arms. He just smiled back at her.
"It's fine…" he stopped speaking as he lost all sense of nerve "I was actually thinking about how much I liked it, I…well, I have something to tell you."
"What?" There was worry in Mitchie's voice, honestly, when a rockstar has something to tell you – that could be anything.
Shane looked around to see that all the cabins around them had lights on inside, then he looked down at the canoe; he motioned for her to get in.
Shane helped her get her life vest on, and helped her into the canoe.
Shane knew Mitchie had never thought of them as more than friends, and in her eyes… they could never be together. Or so he thought…
"So… what did you want to tell me?" Shane could tell she was trying to hide all trace of nervousness, but the way her voice started breaking, and her eyes didn't have the same life, told it all.
"Well… I just- I mean I…" Shane looked down and sighed but brought his head up to meet Mitchie's eyes.
"I love you" He blurted out before he could stop himself; he just had to wait for Mitchie's reaction. He looked down because he couldn't bear to look her in the eye.
"Do you want to know a secret?" Mitchie asked with a slight smile.
"Sure"
"I think I love you too." She didn't think twice before she spoke, but those words made Shane's day perfect.
"Really?!" Shane almost screamed out. It was as if he turned into a 5 year old for a few seconds.
Mitchie nodded slightly before letting out a giggle at Shane's little outburst, smiling the big smile that made its way into Shane's heart.
Shane leaned over to her, but before either one could register what was happening, they felt the canoe tip over.
After they fell into the water, they realized that nothing could ruin the night, especially when their lips were in contact with each other's.
"Wait… I'm sorry, I-" Shane was cut off.
"Don't be… honestly I wish I could stay out here all night" Mitchie's voice hinted sadness as she thought about not being able to stay with Shane all night.
"Why can't you? Stay out here all night I mean, I don't know how long I can last without you."
"I have to get back to my cabin; my mom is probably looking for me." Mitchie didn't want the night to end and neither did Shane.
"Well if you have to leave, you can, but in case you can't last this long without me, here's something for you." He gently kissed her, but when Mitchie deepened the kiss, he didn't hesitate.
"I, um… thank you. But I have to go before anyone finds us here" Mitchie swam to shore and got out and took off her life vest, by that time Shane was standing right next to her. He grabbed her hand but she still walked away, forcing them to break apart.
As Mitchie came up to her cabin, Connie came out and asked "Why are you late? And why are you wet?"
"Because…" Mitchie smiled "I was out having the best night of my life."
