No POV

Alex made her way into a small conference room on an early Monday morning. She noticed Brett, her record label owner; Mark, her producer; Jenna, her manager; and Liz, her publicist. Alex walked in with a huge grin on her face. The past week had been non-stop work on her first album and finally she was getting a small break.

"Hey Alex." Brett said as the brunette sat in her chair.

"Nice highlights!" Jenna pointed out. Alex had gotten blue and purple highlights the night before on a dare from her fiancé, Mitchie.

"Thanks." Alex smiled.

"Okay well before we get back to working on your album, we need to cover the next week." Brett started as he pulled out his phone. "Today and tomorrow you'll be recording and the band is coming in to record as well. Wednesday we have you scheduled for your first interview." He said.

"Woah, intereview?" Alex was a little taken back.

"Yes. You'll be interviewed by Anne Lee from Entertainment Today." Liz said. "Remember to try and keep your relationship out of it."

"And then Thursday and Friday will be more recording." Brett continued.

"We have a deal to make with you, Alex." Mark added.

"Yes. The deal is… if you stay and record on Friday, then you can have the rest of the weekend for yourself." Brett told her.

Alex's eyes lit up at the offer. Her fiancé Mitchie was finally going to be flying in this weekend to see her. The last time she'd seen her was right after their graduation a week and half ago. "Yes! But… I have to pick Mitchie up." She remembered.

"We'll have Marco pick her up and bring her here. You can see her after you're done." Brett said.

"I guess that's fair enough. So then Saturday and Sunday I have for myself?" she asked trying to process it all.

"Yes!" Mark smiled.

"Deal! Deal!" Alex smiled.

"Okay then, let's get you in the studio!" Mark said as he got up. Alex and the three others followed behind him as they made their way to the studio room. Alex was ready to get the week over with, she just wanted it to be Friday so she could be back in her beautiful lover's arms.

Two days later

Mitchie

I walked into my new apartment and threw down my bag. I walked over to the refrigerator and grabbed a small water bottle. I had just spent the past four hours at

Soccer training watching my new teammates train in the hot Texas heat. I hated watching the play and not being allowed to do anything. I felt my phone vibrate in my bag so I went and took it out.

Alex: Just did my first interview… Check channel 36 at 6. I'll be on skype so log in after, love you babe.

Mitchie: So proud! Love you more Lex xoxo

I set my phone aside and checked the time. 5:15. I have enough time to take a quick shower and catch Alex's interview. I headed over to the bathroom and jumped in the shower.

"Your love is off the chain." I sang as I finished taking a shower. Ever since I'd heard her song on the radio I had been non-stop listening to it. When I finished I threw on my clothes and laid out on my bed. I searched for my remote and then turned on the appropriate channel.

"We recently caught up with one of Hollywood's new rising stars, Alex Russo. Many of you have probably heard her new single, Off the Chain. She recently signed on to Taylor Swift's label and today we were able to ask her a few questions." A brunette reporter said before the scene switched to the interview.

"Hi Alex, I'm Anne Lee, it's great to have you here today." The reporter said as she shook Alex's hand.

"It's awesome to be here." Alex replied, she was clearly a little nervous. She was so cute when she was nervous.

"We noticed your single, Off the Chain, has been climbing up the charts incredibly fast! How do you feel?"

"I'm over the moon. I listened to it on the radio the other day and I was just completely surprised." Alex laughed. "This is all really surreal. I never thought something like that would happen."

"How's your album coming along?"

"Great! We've been working none stop on getting it finished." She said.

"When can your fans expect it?" the reporter asked as she shifted in her seat.

"It will be out in two weeks, June 30." Alex admitted.

"Describe some of the songs on your album."

"Well there's a lot of cute, pop like love songs and then a few break-up songs. But that's only like two, it's mostly lovey!"

"Your current single and a few other songs from your album were written by you, correct?"

"Yes! There's a song on the CD that I wrote after a break up and then the rest are for someone very special to me." She said and I smiled to myself.

"For all the boys out there who want to know, is Alex Russo on the market?" the reporter laughed.

"I'm not single if that's what you mean. I'm actually engaged." Alex said as she looked down and smiled. I could see her almost blushing.

"Who's the lucky fella?"

"I'd like to keep my private life to myself… but one thing I will say is that I'm at a place in my life where everything's just blissful. I have someone who's supporting me through everything and I'm just really in love."

"That's good to hear, I'm sure he's a lucky man." The reported smiled.

"I'm the lucky one, she's amazing." Alex said trying to imply that she wasn't engaged to a guy.

The reporter looked down and swallowed before looking up at the camera. "That was Alex Russo. Don't forget to go out and buy her album when it hits stores June 30th!"

I turned off my tv and smiled as I thought back to the interview. I couldn't believe Alex actually admitted she was engaged instead of pretending to be with a Hollywood fake. I logged onto my laptop and opened up my skype. I looked for Alex's name and then opened a call.

"Mitchie!" she said as she appeared on my small computer screen.

"Hey beautiful." I said.

"How'd I do?" she asked.

"You were perfect. I can't believe you admitted we're engaged.. I thought you were going to go with the fake boyfriend thing."

"And hurt the person I love the most? No, Mitchie. They'll have to accept me for who I am." She said with a smile.

"Have I told you lately that I am madly in love with you?" I asked .

"Not lately, no." she smiled.

"I miss you so much." I said with a pout. "Two days seems so short…but it's still feels like its so long."

"Stop thinking about it! The less you think about it, the faster time will go."

"So what did your little publicist and manager think about you admitting you're engaged?"

"They weren't too thrilled… Liz was furious, she was complaining about how I already ruined my career."

"I'm sure that's not true. Do you think you did the right thing?"

"Yes! Don't you tell me otherwise, Mitch. I don't know if Jenna and Liz have a problem with my sexuality but they'll just have to deal with it." She smiled.

"If they piss you off just let me know… we can make out in front of them and make them mad!" I joked.

"Oh! I have to tell you something." She said. "It's kind of bad news and good news."

"What's the matter?"

"Well… Brett said he'd give me the weekend off to spend with you," she began as I smiled at her. " But only if I work on Friday."

"Okay, then work on Friday!" I said with a small laugh.

"Meaning I can't come pick you up at the airport." She pouted.

"Oh." I mimicked her pout. "That's fine… you'll just have to repay me somehow." I winked.

"I can manage that." She smiled. "Marco will pick you up at the airport and bring you here to the studio."

"And then I get the rest of the weekend with you?" I asked as my smile grew.

"Yes, just you and me. I'm going to take you to dinner and we can go out and experience the city."

"I'm so ready!" I laughed.

"Ugh." Alex looked down. "I have to go record." She pouted.

"It's okay, I'll call you back tomorrow." I smiled.

"I love you so much Mitch. I can't wait to be in your arms again." Alex said as she formed a heart with her hands.

"I love you too baby. I can't wait to hold you." I said and then blew her a kiss and she pretended to catch it. "Bye dork." I said and then ended the call.

I put my cell phone on my bedside table and got underneath my covers. It was still early but I was tired from being out all day. I looked over at Alex's side of the bed and smiled. Even though she wasn't here yet she'd be here soon and we'd be sharing this room together. The thought of finally living with her brought a smile to my face as I drifted off to sleep.

So here's the first chapter of the sequel! I hope you guys enjoy it. Please review and let me know your thoughts.
