Smitchie

Disclaimer: I don't own any characters or songs or whatever.

Song based off off 'Bad Day' by Daniel Powter. I thought it would be fluffy for Smitchie. ;D Enjoy.

The phone was ringing and Mitchie picked it up. She had a gut feeling something would go wrong today. "Hello?" She greeted.

"Mitchie, honey, is that you?" asked a deep voice.

"Dad? What's up?" Mitchie asked hesitantly.

"I'm sorry Mitchie. But, your grandmother dies about an hour ago. Your mother is crying her eyes out." Her father's said with a sad tone. Mitchie dropped the phone, tears welling up inside. Her grandmother had been sick for the past year or so. She knew fully well that her grandmother's time was coming soon. Mitchie let the guilt sink in. She should have been there sitting next to her grandma on her hospital bed. Instead, she chose to go on tour with her pop star boyfriend.

Her grandma insisted that her grandbaby follow her dreams instead of sticking around with her, now Mitchie lay sprawled accross the bed bawling her eyes out. I should have been there for her. I had so much to tell her. How much Shane and I love each other. About all my great friends. And especially how much she meant to me. Mitchie continued to think. Her heart slowly cracking inside.

She pulled herself together not wanting to put anyone on the bus in a sad mood. Mitchie pulled together a smile, and a fake emotion so her pain wouldn't be evident. On the inside, Mitchie was dying from her loss. She heard Shand and the rest of the band come back onto the bus and she immediately wiped off all the make-up that had been drained through her tears. "Hey baby! I missed you, why weren't you there backstage?" Shane asked politely wrapping his arms around her. He was so kind to her, too bad she wasn't in the mood for his happiness.

"Do I have to be backstage waiting for you ALL the time, Shane? Geez, I don't have to be there all the time." She snapped. Shane's eyes widened at her response. Mitchie's apologized endlessly afterwards no matter how many times Shane would forgive her.

Where is the moment when you need it the most?

You kick up the leaves, and the magic is lost

They tell me your blue sky's faded to grey

They tell me your passion's gone away

And I don't need no carrying on

"Mitchie, babe. You ready?" Shane asked looking into her eyes. He noticed the sparkle in her eyes starting to fade. He could tell something was wrong. They were that close to each other. They can't hide anything from each other. Mitchie sent him a small smile. Her smile was fake and broken, Shane felt nothing from it. Normally, her smiles would make his heart skip a beat or two, but this time nothing. Was he falling out of love with her? Impossible. Shane knew she was the one. And he wasn't going to let her slip away from his fingers anytime soon.

Mitchie took his hand hesitantly and took a deep breath. They stepped out onto the red carpet attending the premiere for a friend's new movie. Flashes surrounded the adorable couple. So many questions were being shot at them. But one question stood out and hit her very bad. "Mitchie, over here, baby! That's right! How are you dealing with.." Mitchie cut off the paparazzi and glared at him. Mitchie just yelled. "It's not my fault! Just leave me alone! I know I should have been there!" Shane felt instinctively concerned. She was having random meltdowns and she wouldn't tell him anything.

Her reason for not sharing her depression was to not upset her friends, but that's exactly what she's doing by worrying them with her strange behaviour.

Stand in line just ahead of the law

You're faking a smile with the coffee to go

You tell me your life's been way off line

You're falling to pieces every time

And I don't need no carrying on

Their bus had stopped by a recording studio for the boys to work on their next album a bit before carrying on with the tour. During their break, Shane went to look for his beloved girlfriend. Mitchie hadn't been eating lately and he was becoming more concerned that she might be developing some eating disorder. But that option of an eating disorder was way off line for Mitchie. Shane walked through the hallways looking for her when he heard her singing softly, but you could still hear her melodic voice ringing through the hallway. He strode over to the studio room and saw her playing the piano and singing with tears in her eyes.

The song was beautiful and yet so sad. Shane could feel the depression from Mitchie. She was crying and he didn't know why. Why had he done wrong? He listened carefully to the lyrics realizing it wasn't about him, but someone else who meant a lot to her. Shane immediately headed back to his recording booth to Nate and Jason before Mitchie returned to watch them record. As he was singing, he couldn't help but feel he was failing as her boyfriend.

Once Shane had finished recording, Mitchie greeted him with a smile. He kissed her and she kissed back, but her love and passion in the kiss wasn't as much as it used to be.

Cause you had a bad day,

You're taking one down

You sing a sad song, just to turn it around

You say you don't know,

You tell me don't lie

You work at a small and you go for a ride

You had a bad day

The camera don't lie

You're coming back down and you really don't mind

You had a bad day

You had a bad day

Shane had just finished another concert and by this time, he knew Mitchie wouldn't be waiting for him backstage so he just left for the bus.

Mitchie lay down in a small corner crying harder than ever. She never knew her grandma would die like this. And no one else knew she was an emotional wreck. She thought back at the countless times she's snapped at people for the little things they did wrong or even when they were trying to be nice to her. Mitchie geld onto a small sharp blade contemplating what she was to do with the weapon. Was it right? Was it wrong? Who would she hurt? No one but herself. She knew Shane would be hurt if she tried anything like this so she threw the blade across the room and sobbed as quietly as possible. She felt alone.

She grabbed the picture of herself and her grandmother when Mitchie had lost her first tooth. She was so thrilled to know she was growing up and was even more excited when grandma told her about the tooth fairy. She glanced at the wide smile her grandma held. So proud of Mitchie.

Shane heard her sobbing and swiftly opened the door to their shared tour bus room. Mitchie gasped and couldn;t find it in herself to make her stop her pain. He rushed to her side and held her, gently rocking her back and forth. Shane said nothing but sweet things in her ears. Kissing her head lightly, telling her everything would be fine.

"It's my fault, she's gone. I should have been there for her." Mitchie kept on mumbling throught her tears. Shane shook his head.

"It's not your fault. You never knew she was going to move on. Look at it this way, she's in a better place free from pain. Right now, she's watching you right now and I'm sure she wouldn't want you to emotionally kill yourself like this." whispered Shane. She just shook her head.

"That's not true. Shouldn't you be preparing for some celebrity party. Don't waste your time on a crying baby like me." whined Mitchie. Shane was slightly offended by what she had just said. Going to a party without Mitchie was definitely out of the options for Shane.

"Mitchie, baby. Since I've met you, you've been nothing but nice to me. Always taking care of me, making sure I'm on time for interviews. And most of all you bring out the best in me. You're always standing right there behind me supporting me in everything I do. Even though I do stupid things you always forgive me. You've helped me so much, Mitchie Torres. Now it's my turn to help you." Shane said. She pondered through everything Shane had said and she started to see the bright side of things. She had a loving boyfriend who's there for her always with undying love. She had amazing friends. Great family.

"I'm sorry." Mitchie said sincerely to Shane. He kissed her softly on the lips.

"It's okay babe. You had a bad day."
