A/N: Thank you for the reviews, they helped calm my nerves about posting this story so again thank you :) This chapter is kindof random the discussion about love was one I had early and the talk of homosexuals is something I hear as an example to sin almost every sunday. I dont really like this chapter but whatever. Please review

It's been almost two weeks since I last saw Mitchie, I faked being sick to get out of going to church all week. I know that I can't avoid her forever, but she has to figure out what see wants on her own even if its not me. I hope she picks the one thats right for her and not her parents or the church, but I know they are the ones she wants to please the most no matter the cost.

It's eight in the morning, I'm still lying in bed knowing that I won't be able to get out of church again after missing sunday services and the random youth stuff that Justin's been going to all week. I hear muffled sounds outside my door, mom must be up. As if on cue she opens my door sticking her head in.

"Alex sweetie get ready for church breakfast will be ready soon." She smiles before going to wake Max and Justin up. Which I know will take the longest because Max sleeps like old person missing their hearing aid, or maybe he just needs one.

Twenty minutes later I'm ready walking down stairs with my ipod in my ear, singing quietly. Everyone's in the kitchen eating, chatting about whatever. I grab my plate catching part of the conversation. "She just been really...distant lately.." Justin speaks sounding confused,"I think she might break up with me but I dont know." He shakes his head taking a bite of his eggs.

"Well maybe something happened, she just needs to think somethings over." Dad tries to reason but he doesn't realize the truth behind the statement. I would laugh if it didn't hurt so much, I stare at Justin over my fork wondering what he's thinking. He just shakes his head.

"I doubt she'll break up with you, her parents like you to much..." I pauses thinking carefully about my next words. "She will stay with you because your a safety net, and as bad as it sounds she needs you to make everyone else happy." I stare at him, he's not mad or upset, but he's thinking it over. "Even if it hurt her the most," I whisper looking down at my plate, knowing he heard me, and hoping he knew the pain behind it.

The Church is small and welcoming, a brick structure making it look like it was meant for a higher purpose, almost for royalty. The sun shining adding a glow to small cross above the large metal doors. We're early, because dad wanted to be an usher. I don't want to go in I know she's in there, with Justin, pretending to be happy. I sigh feeling stupid for standing here, afraid of seeing her when deep down I know I want so badly to see her. I afraid of the emotions I know I'm going to feel as soon as I see her.

Shaking my head I walk into the building, looking around I don't see her or Justin. I release a breath I didn't know I was holding, before walking to the room for youth classes. I'm again relieved that I'm the first one here, sitting in the farthest corner, allowing my thought's to fade back to Mitchie.

I think what hurts the most is that she choose my brother of all people to hide behind, and that she had admitted her feeling but she's hiding out of fear of everyone. I want her to be happy but I know she's not happy with him, its just an act. She not only hurting herself she's hurting me and sadly Justin too.

Snapping out of my thoughts I hear people filling in to the room getting comfortable. Pastor Jessie calls the classes attention, " Hello class todays topic is Love and Sin." Really??? Of all things he could do this service on he chooses to do it on this of all topics, God must have one hell of a sense of humor." Today we're going to do things different, I want your opinion if at anytime you have something to say speak freely." He looks around the room before grabbing his stack of mulitcolored papers.

I search for Mitchie finding her in the second row next to justin and someone I dont know. She must have sensed me staring because she looks back, locking eyes with me. Her eyes show happiness and pain at the same time. I know she's happy to see me but upset and for some reason I don't know why or maybe I just refuse to know. I feel my heart beat just a little faster as she looks away, and the sermin begins.

"Ok I want to start out by asking a simple question, what is love?" Pastor Jessie starts glancing around before someone in the front speaks. " I think love is just an emotion that people get caught up in, something you feel only for a short time." Pastor nods taking in what was said.

Then I hear Mitchie speak " I dont think it's just something you feel for awhile, love is something that last a life time when you find the right person..." She doesn't lift her head while talking," Yes people get caught up in it, but thats because its one of the most amazing feelings and at the same time one of the scarest, its a emotion very different then anything else."

Jessie nods, which he seems to do alot, before turning to her,"How do you know its love Mitchie?" She's quiet for a moment before looking back at me then to Pastor Jessie. " You know its love when just at the thought of that person your heart beats faster, you have butterflies in your stomach and you cant stop smiling and you can't get them off your mind, but at the same time you don't want to." She smiles just a little and I know she wasn't talking about Justin.

Someone behind me speaks out "I dont think those feeling are real, they're just something you read about in a romance novel or see in the movies." His tone simple not meant to fight, stating his opinion.

"Heres another question what is sin?" Is this guy serious?What is sin? That is the dumest question I have ever heard.

"Sin means missing the mark, not keeping to Gods perfection." The same girl who answered the first question answers again. Isn't she just little miss know-it-all.

"Good Sara exactly to the point, sin is not keeping Gods perfection. We all sin there is not one person in this room that has not sinned. It is said "Therefore no one will be declared righteous in His sight by observing the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of sin." He pauses looking around at each of us before continuing " God hates the sin not the sinner, we can all be saved if you repent and change."

This is so boring I have heard this a million times before. "You say to that God loves all but what about the people who lie because of who they are is consider a sin?" I speak not showing the fact that my heart rate has sky rocketed.

He stands there thinking for a few minutes before speaking," Well they need to be willing to change who they are to see to Gods standards." He stares at me for a moment before continuing " An example would be Homosexuals, they chose to live a life style of sin, if they cared enough about Gods word then they would change."

Rolling my eyes I speak in a harsh tone " Really if its a choice then why do so many lie about who they are or committe suicide out of fear of who they are, last time I checked both of those are sins..." I stare at him for a moment "Are you saying they can change and be happy?" I wait for his reply glancing at Mitchie knowing shes staring at me, shocked, she didn't see it coming but theres a small smile playing on her lips.

"Umm...I think we are going to have to finish this next week, class is dismissed." He scratches the back of his head, I smile knowing I've won this one.

Standing up I pass Justin and Mitchie who are huddled in the corner talking in hushed tones. I stop for a moment staring at Justins face as Mitchie talks to him, his face shows little emotion. Mitchie's is the opposite showing every emotion possible, she touches Justin's arm before a smile falls on her face, not quite reaching her eyes.

Justin speaks before pulling her into a hug, then walking over to me smiling. I'm just a little confused and curious as to what they were talking about. "What was that about?" I had to ask they just seem way to...happy?

" Oh nothing Mitchie just had to talk to me about something, well you really, but I was right when I said she was distant lately but I think I figured out why." He looks at her before softly laughing shaking his head. Ok what in the world is going on? Before I can say anything he speaks again. "She really wants to talk to you though, you should talk to her now cause mom and dad wont be leaving for a while, but Max and I are going to Zeke's house,so I'll see you later."

She's still standing in the corner looking at me, but her smile has almost faded, she's scared and nervous. I try to smile at her but fail, I walk slowly to her before standing there letting her take her time. I'm unsure of what she'll say but I'm ready to hear whatever she has to say. We stand there for a few more moments before she finally speaks her voice shaking.

"Alex..."
