Hey people sorry to keep you waiting.
I just started vacation and well, fun calls me. Even if i rather be here in my computer.
Well enough babbling about my life. On to the story
Disclaimer: I do not own any of these fab characters. I just manipulate them in my stories. *evil grin*
"Well? Is it enough time?" Shane asked again
"Umm guys. I'm not going to camp" I finally said
"WHAT?" Shane said in a mad tone, Nate in a confused tone, Leslie in a hopeful way and Jason in his 'I-just-came-back-from- my-little-world' tone
'Eep! What did I just say? I've got to fix this. Sorry Leslie' i thought
"Guys, I kid" I said, scared of what they could do to me. Maybe they'd tie me up and drag me over there.
They all sighed of relief. Well all except Leslie who's smile turned into a frown in 3 seconds flat.
"If your all done with your little jokes, we have to get going now" Jason said, going all grown-up on me "Come on boys"
"I don't wanna leave" Shane wined then threw himself on the floor and held on to my leg. Drama queen. "I want to stay with Chi"
"Yea and I'm in no hurry." Nate said and he looked quickly at Leslie
"But we got to get to the hotel and Mitchie has to pack" Jason said "Ill see you later Mitchie. Bye Leslie"
"Ok ok. Gosh. Bye Mitchie. Bye Leslie" Nate said to me and kissed Leslie's hand. Such a gentleman
"Aw man. Alright Ill see you later Chi" Shane kissed my cheek "Later Leslie"
"Bye guys" I waved "Love you"
Soon enough they were out the door. I was left with Leslie and this awkward silence around us. What should I do? What should I say to her? Ive never felt like this around her.
"Well um I better get going. Mom may call soon" she said sadly, breaking the silence "And you have to start packing. I'll call you later ok?"
"Um ok sure Bye" I said as she went upstairs for her stuff and left.
Her phone call never came. As I was lying in bed, ready to sleep, I just couldn't close my eyes. I had so much in my head it was killing me. My friendship since 1st grade with Leslie and how our summer plans got ruined by this surprise. The great opportunities that is going to Camp Rock and all the friends I made there. What to do? Should I stay or go? I mean I love Leslie but in camp I feel like I belong and that I'm someone. I do what I dream of doing. I couldn't take it anymore so I turned off the light and forced myself to sleep.
Next morning I woke up, ate quickly and went my roof. It was my special spot for thinking. And boy did i have to do a lot of that I was up here for like maybe an hour till I heard my mom screaming my name.
"What?" I screamed back, not really wanting to know what she wanted
"Your cell phone" she was by the pool now "Its been ringing nonstop"
"Be right down" I ran to the ladder and practically jumped to the bottom where she handed me my phone
"Hello" I said
"Hey Mitchie" I heard a familiar voice
"Caitlin?" I asked shocked
"Yup, the one and only" she said "I hear your coming back this year"
"Yea. But when did you find out?" I wondered. Gossip didn't travel THAT fast
"Oh, last year" she said. I could hear her laughing.
"Ha-ha. Well yea I'm going back" I laughed along with her.
"Great. Just remember your song book and guitar" she said kinda fast. "We need to work together again"
"Ok. Will do. Talk to you later Cate." I said
"Bye Mitch." she hanged up.
I spent the rest of the day packing and waiting for Leslie to call me. It never happened. Again. This is so annoying and it's driving me mad. One day till I leave and she decides to be mad at me now and not call me. At dinner I asked my parents for advice on what to do. They were no help at all. They just told me to go with my heart and if Leslie was really my friend, that she would respect my decision and let me follow my dream. That night I didn't have to try to go to sleep. I was exhausted from all the thinking and the packing I did during the day.
On the day of my departure, I woke up extra early. I checked if I had everything and put my best clothes on. Down the stairs I went with my three suitcases and my guitar case for breakfast and to wait for the boys to come and get me.
"Morning." mom said to me "Did Leslie ever call yesterday?"
"No" I said, mouth full of waffles. Messy me.
"You should give her a chance to get over it" dad said from behind his newspaper. "She is upset"
"Yes Mitchie. Give her some time. I sure that you guys will make up sooner that you think" she said to me.
"I sure hope so mom" I slouched in the chair.
"Did I give you enough money baby?" dad asked me, this time at my face
"Yea daddy. Thanks"
"Now Mitchie, I'm not going this year but you are because I trust you and of course I already know the camp. But I will remind you that you should behave" she said hugging me a bit "Brown has my number"
"Lucky me" I teased her.
I heard a car door close and suddenly my heart started racing like mad. I still cant believe I'm going back. With the guys I love so much. They rang the doorbell and mom was over there before I could even blink.
"Hello boys" mom hugged them
"Good morning Mrs. Torres" they said in unison. Did they rehearse that?
"Boys, you know you can call me Connie. Do you guys want some breakfast?" she politely asked them
"Yes please" Shane said, quickly going to the kitchen and standing next to my dad "Good morning Mr. Torres"
"Hello Shane" my dad smiled at Shane, giving him a plate of waffles. I love how everyone loves him. It makes our friendship much better. "Here you go"
"Thank you. Jason didn't let us eat before we left" he said with his mouth full. Now I know where I learned my manners from. "He's sooooo bossy"
"Hey. You take forever to get ready. Its either you get ready faster or get up earlier" Jason sat next to me and started eating too.
"I swear, sometimes you act like such a girl" Nate said, making me throw a piece of strawberry at him "Hey! Sorry"
"When are you leaving?" mom asked while pouring some orange juice.
"As soon as Mitchie is ready" Jason said bringing his plate to the sink and washing it. Fast eater and washes the dishes. Lovely husband material. "I wanna take it easy on the road. I may have a hot car but I'm not a crazy driver"
"Good to know" dad said to him. Overprotective person
"Well, while you guys eat I'll go put my stuff in your car" I stood and try to grab all my stuff.
"Ill help you with those" Shane said and ran to my side. Such a gentleman when he wants to.
I grabbed my guitar and one bag and walked out the door while he grabbed the rest. I felt watched all the way. Paranoid much. I threw my purse in the back seat and guitar in the trunk, next to 3 other guitars. Ah we the musicians. Shane looked at me and smiled. I smiled back while he closed the trunk and the back door.
"Thoughts about today" Shane said to me when we started to get to my door "Well future thoughts"
"That it will get better" I opened the door to find mom, dad and Nate laughing at Jason, who had a oops-but-its-true look on his face
"Hey what's so funny?" I asked standing by mom
"Well Jason was telling us about this morning." dad responded, wiping a tear of his face
"Oh no" Shane covered his face
"Oh yes, Shaney" Nate mocked
"What are you guys talking about?" I asked
"Ill tell you later Mitch. But right now we've got to hit the road" Jason responded and looked at my parents "Thank you for breakfast"
"You're very welcome Jason" mom smiled "Take care of Mitchie for us ok?"
"Of course! Ill protect her like a bodyguard. Only I'll be a nicer one. Who gives hugs" Shane hugged me
"Yea Mrs. T. We'll take good care of her and Brown will make sure of that" Nate assured my dad who seemed a little tense
"That's great to know boys" dad nodded. They were in. "Take care of my little princess"
"Ugh DAD!!" I groaned. I hated that pet name
"Bye Mr. & Mrs. Torres" they all said together again. Suck up.
"Bye Mom. Bye Dad" I walked over and kissed them. Mom gave me a big hug and dad gave me a loving kiss on the forehead.
"Bye Mitch. Ill miss you and your loud music" dad said
"Bye honey. Remember, if you need anything like a listening ear, just call ok?" mom said to me and I nodded. I would miss her.
"Mitchie!" Shane shouted and Jason honked
"I better go before they have a spasm attack" I ran to the door and waved
I got to the car where the door was opened already for me to jump in. I looked a Jason and he smiled at me. So he wasn't pissed so that was good. I closed the door and waved one last goodbye to my parents and we were off.
"Here we go huh?" Nate said after we got on the freeway
"Camp Rock, here we come" Jason laughed
