Okay so I wasn't going to bother to post another chapter today but ItalyLover left the best comment ever so I just wanted to update for a second time today. And I'm at a road block in my gabpay story…I'm totally lost at what I want to happen in the last two chapters. Oh and for once look who's Point of view it is.
Mitchie's P.O.V
I watched as Alex walked into the restaurant kitchen before I turned in my chair to face her mom. She didn't speak her eyes just studied me before she quickly grabbed the drink Alex and I was sipping on and tossing it in the trash.
"Mrs. Russo," I said as she stormed into the kitchen, I felt a little scared as nothing was heard from behind the door. I didn't hear Alex, but I did hear another door close. I sat in the same spot for a few more minutes before standing up to leave.
"Hey…umm Mitchie right?" a girl who's always hanging out with Alex says. I face her and nod before she steps up to me. "I'm Harper, Alex's best friend, sorry about whatever just happened, her mom looked pretty…I don't know but Alex and I really want to get to know you," she said as I smiled. It wasn't because she was speaking it was because Alex's name ran across her lips and into my ears.
"So do you think I could like join you guys or something, whatever you all are doing back there," I said as she laughed painfully.
"We uh…there's nothing back there…food and more food…and sandwiches…cold ones might I add," I nodded at how weird she was acting and just ran my right hand through my hair, scratching my head before Alex appeared. My heart practically jumped out of me, I smiled brightly and looked over her friend's shoulder as she stood next to the girl called Harper.
"Harper give the girl a break, besides I umm, my mom needs your help," Alex said. I knew she only said that to get the girl to leave and I smiled even harder, my face began to hurt but I could never not smile next to her and its hard to believe we just met yesterday morning. The girl in the weird train outfit left and Alex placed her fingers between mine. I don't know what was happening but I liked it. She pulled me out of the restaurant and towards the side of the building away from the windows.
"Look you have to go," she said as my smile faded.
"Why, I was just.."
"No," she dropped my hand as I stared at her, I knew tears wanted to come out, but I bet I was over thinking this whole thing, maybe she didn't like me and it was just me wishing she did. "Look my mom really wants me to do stuff around the restaurant and house so umm, yeah I have to do that stuff and you're distracting," did she just say I was distracting her? "I mean…look just please go."
"Okay, but can we hang out later or tomorrow, your friend Harpoon or whatever said that you guys wanted to hang"
"She did what?!" Alex stared at me as I nodded before her eyes went around the corner and back onto me. "Look Mitch, if I may call you that.." I nodded she could call me whatever she wanted. "Harper and I are.." I nodded before pulling away from her. I didn't want my heart broken like that, right there in what seemed to be a alley.
"I get it, I'll go," I turned to leave when she grabbed my wrist.
"She's my friend and she doesn't have a full brain so..I mean I'm busy," I stared at her hand on my arm before looking up at her and nodding.
"We could hang out in school and stuff…or maybe at lunch time, if I can eat on my own," she said as I smiled and placed my hands together.
"Okay…..Alex," I smiled turning away from her. Was she just being nice or did she really like me? No Mitchie she doesn't like you and its stupid of you to even think that. Her eyes are just so…and her hand on mine, and her skin on…great that's just great she's going to be in my head again tonight.

Next Day
………………………………………………………………………………….
I stood at my locker waiting for Alex to make it around the corner but she never did. All through school and even through lunch I didn't see her, but I did see her brother, whatever his name was and strolled over to him tapping his shoulder.
"Hi, um is Alex around?" I asked him as he turned to me. He couched and smiled and placed his hand through his hair a few times before nodding and speaking.
"She umm, detention, that's where she's….Hi, I'm Justin…but most of my friends call me…Justin," he was cute, the way he stuttered and talked fast but he wasn't Alex.
"Detention? What happened?"
"Nothing, she's always in there, ditching class, skipping tests, bringing things that shouldn't be in the school to class, Alex stuff," he said as I turned away. It didn't seem like she'd do any of that, I mean maybe she does, but I can change that.
"Where is it please?" I asked as he pointed and spoke.
"Walk down this hall make a right and it's the third door on the left, you can't miss it, but if by any chances you do, just know that Alex will be the loud speaking one," her brother grabbed some things as I followed his directions. The school bell rung for the last class of the day as I peered into the large glass detention door. A few students sat staring at each other but no Alex. I sighed and turned around walking to my last class when I head someone, Alex, talking.
"Mr. Laritate how about you just give me my own desk in here, the room is big enough and besides I can help with all the principal stuff…ooo…like eating donuts," Alex said as I slowly peered into the principal's office. The first place Alex and I met. Today she wore a green shirt, some long dark pants and some green chucks, I myself decided to be more like her and wear a skirt, even though I must admit I don't like them much.
"Alex as helpful as you are, I think you're in here too much, oh potty break," he said walking towards me. I turned in circles before pushing my back hard against the wall. He walked past without noticing and I sighed in relief. I turned back to the open door but I was afraid to go in. What if she thought I was stalking her? What if she doesn't like me and it really is all in my head? I took a deep breath and hummed before slowly walking past the door.
"Mitchie?" I heard her say as I happily turned around and faced her. She was now sitting in the principal's chair biting into a donut.
"I was just going to class," I lied, it was my second day and I was ditching for her, this will not end well.
"Right, after the last bell, take a seat this is called detention, well at least it is for me," she laughed as I sat across from her holding my song book and notebook in my arms.
"So are you in here a lot?" I asked. I wanted to know if her brother was lying or not.
"Well not all the time, sometimes I'm not in class in the hallway, or not in class in the bathroom, or not in class at home," she chuckled as I slid my books onto the desk and glanced over at her.
"What?" she asked with some chewed up donut in her mouth. I shrugged and laughed, because even then she was cute. Her head was on one arm of the principal's chair as her feet hung off the other side.
"I just wanted to know where you were all day, we were suppose to go to lunch together," I said as she shifted her body and sat upright. Her hands folded over the desk and her donut landed on a napkin.
"Oh…well I was here all day, enjoying the view," she pulled her arms across her chest and folded them.
"Yeah, so do you think we could spend some time together after school?" oh wow that sound even more desperate out loud.
"Um, I have to work again"
"Well tomorrow?"
"That's not a good day either," I watched as she wiped her mouth with her napkin. My eyes fell onto my books as I grabbed them and placed them back in my hands.
"Oh well, I should get to class, or at least try," I stood as she did the same but I watched as she walked over to me.
"Its not that I don't want to hang out with you, its just…my mom kinda freaked out with the entire your hands between mine deal," she said. Was her mom freaked out..like oh my god my daughter is liking a girl or…of course it's the first one.
"Oh I'm sorry I didn't want to cause any trouble"
"You're not"
"But your mom, I don't want to…" she walked up to me and at that moment my heart stopped. She said something but I could barley hear it since my ears were burning, my hands were too, hell my entire body was in flames. I nodded before she pulled my arm into her body with me behind it. Her arms wrapped around my neck with my books sitting a bit between us. She laid her head on my shoulder and whispered, or maybe she spoke normally but I didn't hear anything. I know I blushed then, because when she pulled back the back of her hand landed on my face, gently stroking my cheeks.
"Miss Russo, Torres," I heard the principal say. Alex pulled completely away as I faced the man. "Why aren't you in class?"
"I forgot where it was and Alex was going to show me," man that sounded like the worst lie ever but he nodded. I reached for her hand and lead her into the hall and she didn't protest.
"Wow, you don't seem like the lying type," she said to me and I placed my fingers between hers.
"I'm not, I just came up with something to get us out of there," I couldn't believe we were walking down the hall with our fingers together. She didn't even attempt to pull away. My hands no longer burned as I purposefully walked closer to her. Our arms touched and I wanted to just get a little bit closer but that's when someone shouted..
"Homo Alert…Alex Russo?" the boy asked as her fingers left mine and she turned to him.
"I'm just…we're going to class okay," she said as she walked ahead of me I tried catching up but she had already made it around the corner. I felt abandoned I never felt like this before. I felt lost, confused and kind of hurt but then again she's not my girlfriend. I'm not dating her and…tears formed in my eyes as I walked out the school doors. I skipped my last class and headed home….Welcome to Waverly Mitchie, I tell myself before the first tear hits my cheek.
Okay….the next chapter is going to be your favorite…it'll be posted tomorrow unless I'm not patient and post it earlier…like tonight.
