I don't know exactly where Camp Rock is or where Mitchie's from, so I'm making up the states.


The few weeks until summer break had passed since Mitchie had persuaded me to come with her to Camp Rock and now it was time to head off to Ohio to spend my summer at Camp Rock. It wasn't easy persuading my parents since I had been with them for my sixteen years of living and I hadn't left them for more than a day because they were pretty protective of me.

Evidently, Mitchie had really thought this through because she had answers to every question my parents threw at her. She must have wanted this more than I did. Of course, I didn't really want this, but I would do anything for my first best friend, so I reluctantly promised to enjoy it as much as I could.

"This is gonna be so much fun," Mitchie said, excitedly as she lugged her bags off her bed.

Mitchie had also persuaded my parents to let me sleepover the night before we left. Let me remind you, it wasn't easy.

"I'm sure..." I replied, as I lifted one of my bags over my shoulder.

"Oh, come on, Julia, it will be fun. You promised me you'll enjoy it," Mitchie said as we walked out of her very purple room and down the stairs, "I'll even introduce you to all the friends I made over there: Caitlyn, Lola, Barron, Sander, Shane, Jason, Nate — Oops..." Mitchie slapped her hands to her mouth with wide eyes.

"How fun..." I replied and paused, in thought before speaking, "...Wait, Shane, Jason, and Nate...?" I repeated to myself. Those names sounded very familiar... "Why do I know those names?" I asked, more to herself than to Mitchie.

"Man, it was supposed to be a surprise..." Mitchie whined as we reached Connie, Mitchie's mom's, truck.

"What was?" Julia asked as we climbed into the truck.

"You know, for a smart cookie, you're missing half of your entire smart cookie..." I was silent, contemplating on what Mitchie had just said, and replied with a 'hey!', figuring out it was an insult. Mitchie laughed, rolling her eyes, but continued, "Anyway, my surprise to you is to meet my friends, Connect 3's Shane, Jason, and Nate." She smiled.

My mouth dropped, "You're flipping kidding me."

"Nope," The brunette's grin spread wider, "Shane has to teach to teach hip-hop class again – because I forced him to – and it was Jason's idea that he and Nate attend camp too since they had nothing to do this summer."

I replied with a 'no way' and Mitchie replied with a 'yes way' before we bid our goodbyes to Steve, Mitchie's father, and began our journey to Camp Rock, one I was not looking forward to..., from our small little town in Wisconsin.


Yeah, I know suckish ending to this chapter -- or suckish chapter in all-- but I'm distracted with the KCAs and Nick's smile so much that I can't think straight... And I know it seems rushed, but it'll slow down for you to take everything in. But this story will have drama. I'm planning on it. =]
