So, basically Shane and I headed off to detention after school. Like I said though, it was well worth it. At least we get to spend some time together. Opening night for the show is in 2 days, so Ms. Bruno was obviously not happy that we were missing intense rehearsals for detention. Maybe she'll try to come in and cut us out early.

We were the only ones in the detention room, so it was extremely boring. I would have been more amused watching paint dry on a fence in my backyard. And, it's only been like 10 minutes. The teacher that actually gave us detention in the hallway (Party-Pooper.) was just staring at us with disgust the whole time. He finally went up to go to the bathroom as he firmly instructed us not to move a muscle, yadda yadda yadda. I honestly didn't pay attention to a word the Party-Pooper said because everything that came out of his large mouth just sounded like skfhidowrhgsd and went through one ear and out the other.

"You know, this is really hard for me." Shane said as the teacher walked out of the room.

"Shane…it hasn't even been 15 minutes."

"Not because of the time…"

I looked at him seriously confused.

"Shane if you have to go to the bathroom just go…" I said jokingly.

"Ha ha ha." He said sarcastically. "I meant because I can't kiss you right now."

I blushed before responding. "Well, no one's here."

He immediately jumped up rushing to my lips hungrily like he'd been deprived for months. It only lasted for a few moments before we heard heels coming down the hallway. Obviously it wasn't the detention teacher (although who knows, that guy's a freak.) but no matter who it was, someone was coming so Shane sat back down in the desk. Turns out it was Ms. Bruno.

God, did she really have to interrupt right now? I was enjoying myself.

"Come on you two…you're free." She said signaling us to follow her to the auditorium. I'm assuming she talked to the freakazoid teacher in the hallway.

"So, I hear you two were rehearsing in the hallway this morning." She said giggling slightly.

My heart completely stopped as I blushed harshly covering my face with embarrassment.

"I don't see anything wrong with a little practice-OWW!" Shane said right as I elbowed him.

"You know, you really do make an adorable couple. But, you know I'm just teasing you. You know, I was your age once." She said.

Oh god. Do I really have to hear this?

"I was worried about you guys at the beginning of the play. You guys didn't seem to get along…but I guess something happened when I wasn't around." She said teasingly.

OH MY GOSH. CAN THIS HALLWAY BE ANY LONGER?!!! WHY ARE WE WALKING SO SLOW?!!!

"Mitchie just finds me irresistible." Shane said responding to Ms. Bruno.

SHUT UP SHANE!!

"OWW!" He said as I elbowed him again.

"Mitchie…you're so abusive to me. It turns me on…" He said leaning down to whisper in my ear.

"Good." I responded quietly as I shoved him a little.

"Oh, this reminds me of how I was in high school." Ms. Bruno said.

MAKE IT STOP!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!

I KNOW SHE'S ONLY IN HERE LATE 20'S/EARLY 30'S OR SOMETHING BUT THIS IS STILL WAY TOO AWKWARD TO TALK WITH A TEACHER ABOUT.

CAN WE WALK FASTER PLEASE?

-

After that miserable and endless walk through the empty hallways after school hours we reached the auditorium where I practically sprinted down the stairs dragging Shane along with me preparing for whatever amount of rehearsals we could still have. I'm sure Ms. Bruno would make the time after that fascinating conversation. (Sarcasm Intended.)

"Ok boys and girls…Act 2…Scene 4. I know Shane and Mitchie are eager. Or should I say Smitchie?"

Can you please hit me with a bat?

Did she really have to say that in front of the entire cast? It's not that I'm embarrassed of Shane, that's ridiculous. I love him. It's just that…wait a minute did I just say that I love him?

-

I ran up the stairs of the stage to begin the romantic scene with Shane. We said our individual lines before the kiss. We were leaning in when…

BAM!

Blackout.

Really? Are you kidding me? Screw you Mother Nature.

I heard Ms. Bruno laughing at Shane and me as she made an announcement to the cast.

"Students hang tight, I'm just going to try to find some flashlights" she said walking out of the auditorium.

Shane turned on his phone light as he guided me to the dressing rooms backstage.

"Come on Mitchie!" He said laughing which of course made me giggle too.

"Where are you taking me?" I said as he pulled me along by my wrist slowly so that I wouldn't trip.

When we could finally find our location Shane ran a little faster still holding my arm as he pulled me into the nearest dressing room and locked the door.

He was out of breath as he looked at me smiling. I could see a little bit through the blue light off his cell. Trying not to break out in a hysterical fit, I took some deep breaths.

"Why did you bring me in here?" I said smiling.

"I can't stand it."

"What?" I said laughing at how he always manages to confuse me.

"We… keep… getting…" he said in between breaths as there was finally a quick moment of silence before he pushed me up against the wall.

Completely caught off guard, my lips were completely vulnerable so Shane took advantage. He immediately pushed his tongue into my mouth ready to explore without even asking for permission. His hands started traveling down my body, and I put my arms around his neck. He tried to make the kiss last as long as he possibly could. I could tell he was trying to stagger for breaths as fast as possible. By this time he had dropped the phone a long time ago as there was no light on us at all. Still, Shane eventually found my neck biting down in a variety of different places.

The lights flickered back on as he jumped being slightly stunned from the immediate surprise. As soon as he looked up at me, I started cracking up hysterically. He had my lip gloss all over his face, and his hair was disheveled from my hands running through it. He looked in the mirror on the dresser and he was slightly amused himself, but he quickly cleaned himself up as we rushed out of the room figuring the cast would be looking for us, and of course become suspicious.

"Are you okay?" Shane said concerned as we rushed out of the room sprinting back to the stage.

"Yeah…are you?" I said trying not to sound out of breath.

"Well…I am now…" He said smirking.

Not sure how I feel about this chapter, but I still hope you enjoyed it. Please review to let me know what you think. Also, I just posted a new story called Hello Los Angeles. I know, it's pretty insane that I worked on two stories in one day. Don't worry though; I am absolutely not giving up this story. The idea for the other one just came to me one night and if you read it you'll obviously see why I couldn't put it in this story. Ahaha Anyways, this is getting pretty long now and everyone probably stopped reading this author's note a long time ago. But, I appreciate all the reviews so keep them coming. =]

Thanks!
