Chapter 3
Mitchie's POV
August 23, 2012
I hit UP on the elevator to take me to the room that Shane and I shared. I heard the sound of sobs coming from the inside. The doors opened and I saw Shane on the couch, crying. I immediately ran over to him and I pulled him into my arms.
"G-get off me," Shane spat. I was shocked at his tone of voice.
"What?" I asked.
"You can't see me like this. I'm not allowed to be eat," Shane whimpered.
"Shane I love you because you're you! I love it when you cry, I want to see you like this," I said, holding onto his hand.
"Mitchie, you know I love you, right?" Shane asked.
"Yeah, why?" I asked.
"It was Tess." A regretful sob escaped his mouth.
"What did she do?" I asked, now scared.
Shane sighed, "Nothing."
"What?" I asked, furrowing my eyebrows together.
"Mitchie I don't want to say this," Shane muttered.
"Tell me Shane!" I raised my voice.
"I've been sneaking around with Tess for a while and now the paparazzi caught us and I didn't want you to find out but now you're going to and I'm such an ass hole to you; you don't deserve me." Shane cried.
I swallowed.
"So you cheated on me?" I asked.
He nodded his head shamefully. "I didn't want to, but Tess was saying how I was acting like I was so bored with you and I guess the more she said it the more I believed it and so I went to her. I didn't do anything we haven't done. If you're ever going to take me back you'll be my first."
"What is this? The millionth time you've broken my heart? I thought things were getting good, Shane! I thought maybe you were going to propose sometime soon. But you love her, don't you? You've always loved her." I felt a tear roll down my face.
"I don't know," Shane whispered. "I'm moving out until things are better."
I noticed his bags packed in the corner.
It hit me. Shane cheated on me because it was my fault.
I sank to the floor, tears pouring out of my eyes now.
"This is my fault, all mine," I sobbed.
"No, Mitchie please don't think that! It's not your fault," Shane said, not stepping towards me.
"If I wasn't so innocent you'd still be with me. We'd be happily engaged. Please don't go," I cried. "I need you."
Shane tore his eyes away from me, "I'm sorry. Staying with you and not knowing where my heart lies will hurt you more."
I pushed myself at him and he awkwardly hugged me back. Now, Caitlyn, Nate, Jason and Ella were in the room watching us.
"I'm sorry Mitchie." Shane pressed a kiss to my cheek and grabbed his bags. He waved to the rest of our friends and walked out.
"Mitchie..." Jason said.
I started screaming, crying, and thrashing around. Gosh, I don't even know what I was doing. I wore myself out and started sobbing in a little ball on the couch. He had left one thing though, one of his shirts. I picked up a shoe I found and threw it across the room. I screamed again. Jason ran over to me and held me back.
"LET ME GO!" I shouted.
I saw everyone's eyes go wide, except Jason.
"Mitchie you need to stop. Listen to me. If you keep this up you're going to pass out," Jason said, calmly.
I looked up at him and saw the worry in his eyes. I stopped everything for a while, and I was breathing slowly with my eyes closed. He was rubbing my back gently.
I hiccupped.
"Why'd he leave?" I whispered. "Was it something I did?"
"We don't know," Caitlyn said sympathetically. "He told us before you came back from the recording studio. Did you notice the bruise on his face?"
I shook my head no.
"Nate did that," Ella said quietly. "Jason kicked him in the leg."
"I cursed him off and Ella was bitch-slapping him." Caitlyn said.
I had to smile at this.
"Guys the love of my life was cheating on me and you manage to make me laugh." I sniffled.
"That's what we're here for. None of us like Shane at the moment; I don't know what's gonna happen to Connect 3." Nate said.
I looked at my left hand and saw his ring. Tears filled my eyes again.
"Can I please be alone?" I whispered.
"Mitchie we don't want you to kill yourself," Ella said. "We know how much you love him."
"I won't," I sniffled and curled up to his shirt. The only thing I really have left of him.
All my friends hugged me, and I whipped out my phone as soon as they left. I sent Shane a text message.
Shane,
I hope you realize you've made a mistake. I have done nothing but loved you for the past four years of my life. I never moved on, I never got tired of you holding me in your arms. I never once went to another man to get what I wanted. Shane if you wanted something else from me, you could've just asked. I'd do anything for you. Now I wonder what's going to happen. To you and Tess. To you and me. To connect 3? Did you ever think of everything you're tearing apart?
If you do decide to stay with Tess, then I guess that's your decision. I can't stop you from what your heart wants. I always thought you wanted me though. I hope that we can be friends if that's your decision. But I hope you know that nothing's going to ever make me stop loving you.
Love,
Mitchie
I closed my phone and rested my eyes to prevent tears. I fell asleep for about two hours, until Caitlyn woke me up.
"Mitchie, dinner time."
"I'm not hungry," I whimpered. I looked at my phone and saw I had one text.
"Oh well, there's Chinese downstairs when you're ready."
I read the text Shane sent me.
Hi Mitchie.
I know I probably made one of the worst mistakes in my life, but I'm so confused. I do love you, don't doubt that, but I love Tess too. I don't want to lead you on, so I'm leaving you. I didn't want to put you under pressure in making you do things with me. I didn't want that if you're wondering.
I honestly didn't think about what would happen. I just did what my heart said and that said don't hurt you by staying with you and Tess. Mitchie I do want to stay friends, but I don't know if that will be easy.
I love you,
Shane
I walked downstairs and sat at the island. Everyone gave me sympathetic looks and I sighed.
"I'm not broken.. don't treat me like I am," I whispered.
"Sorry Mitch. We just don't want to do or say anything that will trigger you to get upset." Caitlyn said.
I couldn't eat for the next week and I barely talked to anyone. I skipped all the recording sessions and I locked myself in my bedroom.
"Mitchie you don't want to look at the newspaper," Jason said. He was the only one allowed in my room.
"What's it say?" I whimpered.
"Shane proposed to Tess," Jason flinched.
I stopped.
"As in... get married?"
Jason nodded. "I'm so sorry Mitchie."
"It's okay," I said. Tears welled up behind my eyes and one fell. Jason smiled sympathetically at me.
"Wanna go look for birds?" He asked.
"Not now," I blinked slowly. "Sorry."
"It's alright. I just wanted to get your mind off of it." Jason said. "I'll be outside if you need anything."
I watched him leave my room and then I broke down. My heart was crumbling, as well as my world. It felt like I was dying. Maybe I should die, I have no point to live.
I quickly scribbled a note to Caitlyn and the others. I packed a bag of stuff I would need, including my cell phone, and Shane's shirt. I got in my car and began driving to my third home.
Caitlyn's POV.
Nate and I walked in, expecting to hear sobs coming from Mitchie's level of the pent house. Strangely, it was quiet.
"Do you think she's sleeping?" I asked.
"I hope so," Nate bit his lip and led me to the elevator. We entered her room and saw nothing. I gasped when I saw a note on her bed.
Caitlyn, Nate, Ella and Jason:
Thank you guys for being the greatest people ever and helping me over the past two weeks. I've been a mess and I left. I didn't kill myself, I can't do that to you guys. I just went to the one place where I know I can contain myself. If you want to know where that is, call Shane and ask him. He'll know.
Will he care? Nope. He'll be too busy sucking face with the evil slut man stealing seducing BITCH. I meant Tess if you didn't catch my drift.
I have my cell phone with me, and I'm not ignoring you guys. If you want to call me, do it. But please don't try to find me. I know where I am I'm safe. There's someone there all times, and he lives there.
I love you guys
Mitchie.
"I'm going to kill Shane." I muttered. I ran down the stairs and got in my car. Nate followed me. I drove to Tess's house and saw Shane's car.
We knocked on the door angrily and Shane appeared.
"What are you guys doing here?"
He looked so tired, so lonely.
"Mitchie ran away genius, guess who's fault it is!" I shouted.
"Mine?" Shane asked.
"No shit!" I screamed. "Shane Gray you have done it this time." I pushed the note into his chest and demanded he red it.
"I know where she is," Shane whispered.
"Where?" Nate asked.
