Chapter 1: How it Started


Thoughts-italics

Mitchies POV

Looking in from the outside this can't look very normal, but then again nothing about us is normal. We are the most opposite people in the world but also the most in love…your probably wondering who I am …I'm Mitchie, but this story isn't just about me It's also about her..Alex …We've been together for about a year now and everyone said we wouldn't even last a week…look at us now…

I guess I should start from the first day we spoke.

10 months earlier

"Hey, Chels..Hey Cody"

"Ohh Hey Demi how are you?"

"tired..Ashley didn't go to bed at all last night" Demi said yawning

"Ha..thats what you get for dating her" Cody said jokingly

"yeah well..she broke up with me last night" she said remembering the horrible night before.

"omg..for what im going to kill her" Chelsey instinctive over protective ness was starting to kick in.

"don't it was kinda my fault any way" Demi was visibly hurt by this, but you could also see the relief in her face, she was finally free from the girl she was once in love with that had changed to so much, to the point of which Demi had begun to hate her.

"what did you do" Cody challenged.

"well its stupid but I wouldn't sleep with her, I'm just not ready and with her being older she just couldn't understand that"

Ashley Brooks was a senior at Westmount Prep, Demi being a year younger as a junior just wasn't ready to take that plunge with anyone yet, she didn't feel like she was emotionally or mentally ready for anything that large to in her life to happen yet, it also helped that she had long ago fallen out of love with Ashley, and she was only with her to keep some sort of stability in her life.

"so she broke up with you" At this point Chelsey Demi's best friend since birth was beyond pissed.

"yeah pretty much" Sighing, Demi was tired of reliving it.

"ok let me get this straight ..you did want to sleep with her so she broke up with you" Chelsey just couldn't believe what she was hearing, unknowing that Demi really didn't care that the dead relationship had ended

"Chelsey Jefferson what do you not understand, I am beyond tired of talking about it , can we please just drop it, I am begging you." Demi said completely exasperated. Chelsey just looked down.

"So Cody how are things in Carly land" Demi asked changing the subject

"ha..we`re fine..well better then you and ashley" Cody said jokingly

"and que the queens" Demi said nodding at the main entrance

In walked the captain of the Cheer squad Alex Russo followed by her loyal mini want to be's . Those girls ran the school, everyone at WestMount prep had money, you had to, to even be enrolled but they were the showiest about it, even with the uniform that was required by the school they somehow still managed to make it look like something you saw in a Vogue. They were flawless.

"you know she didn't used to be like that..I've known her since we were two and she used to be cool but now she"s…ugh god I hate her" Demi said still staring at Alex she was almost mesmerized by her.

Only if that were true, I really wish I could just hate alex.

"Mitch…Hey Mitch" Cody said trying to snap Mitchie out of it.

"huh, what 's up?" she hadn't even realized she was staring until afterwards she was blushing a bit.

"Don't look now but hot ex bee lining this way" Chels said motioning towards the oncoming Ashley

"hey mitchie do you think that we could talk" Ashley asked carefully approaching her, cautious of Chelsey, after dating Mitchie for so long she knew that girl would do anything to protect Mitchie from her.

"Sure why not you have 2 minutes though, I can be late" Mitchie said glaring.

"Well Ill cut to the chase then, look I am really sorry about last night I was be stupid and insensitive to how your feeling, I know how much you want to wait till you're ready and how special you want to it be, I was just being a horny jerk last night I'm sorry, Please take me back" Ashley was begging and was almost convincing Mitchie to get back with her.

Demi in her mind knew that she couldn't do it she just couldn't take it anymore she had put 8 months in that relationship and it had only gone downhill since the beginning. Demi stood looking at Ashley having the battle with herself in her head, finally saying something.

"I'm truly sorry Ash, but I just can't do this dance with you anymore, I kept hoping I would love you again, but you've changed so much in the last few months and I can't do it anymore, Im sorry Ashley" Mitchie Whispered walking away letting a tear slide down her face.

Ashley was Mitchies first love and she will always have that place in her heart she may be in love with her anymore but she certainly still loved her and it pained her to let her go. Even still she was happy to be free, she need to focus on her upcoming events in her life now anyway.

Mitchie walked to class with a new attitude towards things, and a small smile playing on her lips.

ALEX POV

Why did she look at me like that? It doesn't make any sense, who cares damn soccer jocks live in their own world anyway, but that look still, it was almost as if….

"LEXI!"

"huh, yeah hey" Alex said jolting back to attention.

"So are you ready for today's pep rally" Miley asked excitedly.

Miley Stewart was one of Alex's longtime friends, they had gone thru ever phase together and always stayed close not matter what; you never saw one without the other. They were in the same clubs, most of their classes and they had lunch period together.

"Yeah can't wait..this is gunna be so much fun" Alex said flatly

Yeah if you like doing the same routine 4 times in a row.

"It should be fun I know Joe is going to be excited to watch you" Miley said winking at Alex

"Miley I've told you a hundred times before he's just a friend."

"A very cute friend" Miley responded in her flirting tone signaling to Alex she was going to go after him.

"Miles you can have him but he is one of my best friends so just play nice and don't break his poor little sweet heart" Alex said in a warning tone.

"Since when do you have a heart?" Miley said moving to her seat behind Alex.
BRINNGGGGGGGGGGGGG the bell sounded signaling that start of first block.

"Ok class take out yo-" Mr. Greggs was cut off the sudden entrance of Mitchie trying to enter before the bell.

"Hi Mr. Greggs, Im sorry I was late, I had something to take care of something important"

"Of course you were Mitch, you know being Vice president of the School government does not give you a free pass to come to class late, Alex is the president and still manages to be here on time every day. I expect more from you"

"Of course, Sir I am sorry" Mitchie said taking her seat next to Alex, her lab partner for the duration of the school year.

Why the torture of having sit next to miss perfect every day. It drives me crazy.

INTERCOM/ OUTSIDE POV

"Ok students today as you all know is the soccer pep rally, I will dismiss you by grade that mean seniors first so in 3 mins please release the cheerleaders , soccer team and president of all clubs…..I will announce release of all seniors" the principal said over the loud speaker.

"ok class is that any of you?" Mr Greggs asked

Mitchie and Alex both raised their hands

"Alex you're the head cheerleader right?" Mr G questioned.

"Yes sir I am" Alex answer politely excusing her self

"and Mitchie what are you?"

"Im the Captian of the girls soccer team as well as the coed soccer team" she answered annoyed, she felt like that's something that he would know, he was her mentor after all.

"ohh yeah sorry I kinda forgot that you acuatlly try in some things" he said snidely

"yeah sure can we leave now I need to get my teams ready" Mitchie respond walking angrily out the door. Mr. G was defiantly an asshole that's for sure.

DEMIS POV

Demi was sprinting down the hall trying not to be late to her own pep rally; I mean come on it was the first one in years for the Girls team as well as the Coed team. She was proud of her self for that, the best part of it all was that it was only her junior year.

Finally arriving at the locker room slightly out of breathe she burst in happy to see her second in command Peyton running things

"hey demi you ok" Peyton questioned

"yeah im fine Mr. G is an asshole is all" demi said angrily ripping at her uniform to change in to her soccer uniform.

"well, haha that's what you getting for being gay and having him as a teacher, he's a religious prick, and this is the last school he should be teaching at, so many gay people" Peyton said laughing "What uniform should we be wearing?" she questioned realizing she was wearing the opposite of Mitchies uniform.

"The blue one with the black sweats come on Peyton you should know what to wear at pep rallies by now."Mitchie just shook her head "I need to unfortunately go talk to Alex so Ill be back in a few mins please have the teams ready, and make sure you talk to Nick, to see if the boys are ready from the coed team" she said trailing off as she ran away.

OUTSDIE POV

Demi ran bursting into the girls locker room causing most of the girls to shrill and the sudden entrance.

Stupid cheerleaders such girls. Mitchie thought shaking her head.

"eww why is the dyke in here" the younger cheerleaders squealed

"Yeah I need to talk to Mitchie, and you guys need to get ready and stop being assholes"

Alex said as she walked around the corner already in her uniform, cleary completely ready for the pep rally, they had no idea the secret that their idolized captain held.

"So Alex, where do you want me" Mitchie said with her trade mark smirk.

" hahaha, your so cute Mitchie, expect not really" Alex said flatly

"Awh and here I was thinking I was getting through to you"

Alex and Mitchie had always had a love hate relationship they played nice when it came to interacting with each other due to sports, but any other time they wouldn't be caught dead with each other.

BACK IN VARSITY SOCCER LOCKER ROOM

"so captain how'd it go" Peyton said knowingly, she was the only one who knew about the secret and longtime crush that Mitchie had on Alex.

"fine peyton are the girls ready" demi said warningly

"yeah..Every ones ready..The ball is your job though" Peyton said as she threw the ball at her.

"ohh joy..i should just purposely kick it at the cheer bitches" Mitchie said threateningly

"no mitch you promised you would behave for the pep rally"

"yeah I know and I will, Can you call all the girls in here and the boys so I can get the speech giving thing I have to do over with"

Peyton hurriedly ran around gathering everyone including the boys from the coed team.

"Alright guys as we all know this is the best the soccer department has done in years, so lets go show them why and show some Westmount pride, Black and Blue"

Mitchie was hyped giving the speech clearly showing her energy that fed into her teams.

Running out the team was hype and ready, getting into position for their announcement in front of the entire school.
