Shane POV
I woke up to my alarm clock. It was pretty early in the morning but I couldn't wait to start the day. It was more like I couldn't wait to see Mitchie the girl I loved. I Love her! I will never get sick of saying that. It felt good to get that off my chest. I sighted happily as I laid there thinking about her.
"Can you turn that off?" Nate mumbled in his pillow. I didn't realize the alarm was on and turned it off. Jason seemed to not be bothered by the alarm by the sounds of his snores. I'm not usually a morning person but I just had to see Mitchie first thing. I got out of bed and dressed in a white v neck tee shirt and jeans. I fixed my hair to make sure it was extra curly just the way she likes it before I left to go to the kitchen to surprise Mitchie. On my way, to the kitchen I saw someone sitting by the pier watching looking out at the sun, it was Kate. It was still a bit early so I decided to go over.
"Good morning Kate. What are you doing up so early? You don't need to be up for about another hour or so." I asked when I made my way over to her.
"Couldn't sleep. Decided to go for a walk. What are you doing up at this hour anyways? You are never up at this time," she asked.
"I was on my way to the kitchen to see if Mitchie and Mrs. Torres need an extra hand." I answered. We sat there for I couple of minutes until she laughed.
"Why are you laughing?" I asked her.
"Do you remember that time when we tee peed Brown cabin that year at Camp Rock. He was so mad."
I laughed. "Ya, we hide in the trees over there," I pointed to bundle of tree near by, "all afternoon while he searched who did it and we framed it on that guy we did not like. I'll never forget the look on his face."
Kate laughed at that. "Remember the canoe rides. I'll never forget the one on the night we had fireworks." She looked deep in thought. I remembered that night too. The fireworks Brown set up were not the only fireworks she was talking about.
"I remember. That night we shared our first kiss and decided to give "us" a shot. Two best friends becoming more," I looked out at the lake where were that night. I gulped quiety, it was me and Mitchie's spot. She does not know about "us" and how close we had gotten. Kate seemed to know what I was thinking.
She looked down, "Does she know about us?" I nodded no. I saw her eyes wonder down to my purity ring. "Remember our first night together." I closed my eyes. I remember it clearly, the night we both lost our virginities. She is the only one I had gotten closed too.
"That was a long time ago," I looked at her. I had not noticed grabbed my hand with my purity ring. I shook loose of her grip.
"After that we promise to save ourselves till marriage," Kate said while I looked down and twirled the ring around my finger. "So we got each other these rings," she held up her. She was not wearing it on her finger but around her neck on a chain. I gulped again. She held my hand but I could not pull back, "We told we loved each other." Kate moved closer. She was a bit too close for my likings.
"That was two years ago. I did care about you. You were my first love. I still care about you but in a friendly way, like before our relationship. Now, I'm in love with Mitchie. The past is behind us. I have moved on." Before she said anything, I heard a door close and saw Mitchie looking at us moving down the stair. She smiled at me.
"Look, please don't tell Mitchie about us. I like where we are now and I do not want to ruin the best thing that has happened to me," Shane finished.
"Good Morning," Mitchie walked up and kissed my cheek and waved to Kate who only looked at her. "What are you doing up?" she asked me.
I snaked my arms around her, "I was on my way to see if you and your mom need any help. I know it is just the two of you for the breakfast rush."
Mitchie smiled, "Sure, we would love the help," she grabbed my hand and pulled me to the kitchen. "I'll see you at breakfast Kate," Mitchie waved to Kate, Meanwhile I avoided Kate's eyes, though I felt her eyes on me the whole way to the kitchen. I just hope she doesn't tell Mitchie anything.
We walked hand in hand up to the kitchen. Mrs. Torres was already up cooking breakfast for two hundred people.
"Good morning, Mitchie. Shane nice to see you," Mrs. Torres came over and hugged us.
"Good morning, Mrs. Torres. Everything smells good," Today's breakfast was pancakes and freshly squeezed orange juice. The smell of the pancakes was making me hungry.
"Please Shane call me Connie. Mrs. Torres makes my sound old," Connie whispered the last part.
I smiled. "Sure thing."
"Mom, Shane offered to help us this morning since is the two of us since Caitlyn loves her sleep," Mitchie said. Connie smiled at us.
"Sure. The more hands the better." Connie put us in charge of setting up the tablet in the dining room. I wasn't a good cook and did not want to ruin breakfast. I was only capable of pouring milk into my cereal.
Mitchie and I collected all the plates and utensils and headed to dining room. I did not talk much. My mind was replaying the conversation with Kate. Why did she bring up our relationship? We're over. I decided just to be friends, it was more important to me. I have not seen her in a while. Did she still have feeling after all this time? Mitchie was standing beside me and must have noticed how quiet it was.
"Hey you're quiet this morning. You okay?" she asked and placed a cup over for set.
"Ya, I'm good," I gave her a quick answer.
"What were you can Kate talking about this morning at the dock?" Mitchie looked at me. I did not look back afraid she will see my lie.
"Nothing much," I lied. "Just catching up on old times. "We haven't seen each other in a while," it was the truth at least but not the whole truth. Mitchie seemed contend with my answer and left it alone. She stopped and placed her arms around my waist and instantly I put my arms around her.
" I had the greatest night last night," she smiled looking into my eyes.
"Me too," I knelt my head down towards her and placed my forehead on hers. She smelled like fresh flowers this morning. I savored it. We went back to setting up the tables.
