Here's another chapter. Thank you for taking time to read and review. I appreciate it a lot. :D

The next two weeks went by fast. Alex acted like the perfect girlfriend. She treated Mitchie nice and was always there by her side with flowers. Her parents like Alex a lot. Before Alex knew it, her dating charade with Mitchie was over and so was school. Mitchie's parents stayed until their graduation and then afterwards they took a plane back to Dallas. Then entire graduated class decided to go on a campout because it will be the last time they will see each other since everyone is going their separate way to college.

[The Camping Trip]

Everyone was sitting around the campfire and talking. Brooke had sat herself between Alex and Mitchie. Shane was watching Mitchie the whole time. Justin was telling a scary story about a psycho killer in the woods.

"He goes around chopping of peoples' heads and he especially likes girls." Justin chuckled.

Jason threw a stick at him. "That's a stupid story Justin."

Nate threw in more wood into the fire. "But I heard it's true though."

Max widened his eyes. "For real?"

Alex laughed. "Oh come on. It's a bunch of bull. Even if it is for real, I'm sure he's not coming after me, maybe to some other girls here." She gave Mitchie a supposedly scary face but it turned out so goofy Mitchie ended up laughing.

Brooke grabbed onto Alex though. "Alex! I'm scared. Hold me."

Alex was taken by surprise. She tried to pry Brooke off of her but Brooke held on tight. Mitchie glared at them both. 'That Casanova. Just because every time she smiles her eyes would light up and her hair is so soft she thinks she's—' Mitchie stopped herself. 'What am I thinking? It sounds like I want Alex or something.' She stood up. "Excuse me but I think I'll got for a walk." Then she left.

Shane stood up too. "I think I'll take a walk too."

That alarmed Alex. 'He is not going to take a walk with my Mitchie.' She ended up having to force Brooke off of her and ran where she saw Mitchie disappeared.

Brooke was mad. "Alex Russo, you come back here!" Everyone at the campfire started giggling.

[Somewhere in the woods]

Mitchie looked all around her. 'It figures. Alex wouldn't come after me,' she thought sadly. 'I mean why would she?' Then she heard a voice.

"Mitchie!"

She smiled and turned around. It was only Shane. Her face fell. "Oh hi Shane."

He sat down on a rock next to her. "Aren't you going to come back to take Alex away from that Brooke girl?"

She shook her head. "No…I guess they're meant to be together."

Shane looked at her. "Kind of like you and me?"

Mitchie scooted herself away as her eyes widened. "Uh, Shane. It's over between us."

Shane grabbed her hands. "But you can give me a second chance!"

She pulled her hands away. Then Shane asked her, "Remember what you told me what you wished for a long time ago?"

"What?"

"You said you wanted to find your first true love and be with him forever."

Mitchie stood still. She did say that. Shane was her first love. But then she thought of Alex. Or is it Alex? "I don't know!" she yelled as she took off running.

Shane smiled. 'She's coming back to me.'

As Shane walked back to camp he heard a voice calling for Mitchie. He recognized Alex's voice. In the middle of the road Shane looked down. He saw a huge hole that was about ten feet deep. Shane gave an evil smile. He had a plan. He began to rustle the leaves near the hole.

Alex heard a noise. 'Is it Mitchie?' "Mitchie is that you?" No answer. "Come out come out wherever you are." The leaves continue to rustle. 'What if she's hurt and couldn't answer?' Alex started to walk towards the noise and ended up falling into the trap. It was so cold and dark in there. Alex began to panic.

"Help!"

Shane came out from where he was hiding. "Hey Alex. Looking for something?"

Alex looked up and saw Shane's face. "Damn you Shane! Get me out!"

Shane just smiled. "This all seems so familiar. You know, it took me a while but then I remembered. Didn't I do this to you before ten years ago?"

Alex started to tremble. Because of what Shane did to her, she had a fear of the dark and being trapped alone. But she wasn't going to show it. Alex glared at Shane. "So what? I don't give a damn. Just get me out!"

Shane laughed. "I guess history repeats itself when you mess with me or anything of mine. This time I mean Mitchie. She is my girlfriend and I want you out of the way. And I guess this solves my problem."

"Mitchie don't like you! She's with me."

"Oh really? Didn't seem like it when your ex held you like that. I guess you can't let your first love go and I think you know that I'm Mitchie's first. She'll come back to me."

Alex sat down on the cold ground. Mitchie did say that before. 'Is she going to go back to him?' As she was thinking, Shane had left already. Alex looked up. "Hey!" Her worst nightmare had came back and this time Mitchie was not there to save her. She was stuck here all alone in the dark.

"Mitchie…where are you?"

After a while Mitchie headed back to camp. She took out her flashlight to shine her way back on the main path.

[Down in the pit]

Alex looked up and saw a beam of light. She stood up. "Help!"

Mitchie looked around. 'Was someone calling for help?' "Hello? Is someone out there?"

"HELP!"

Mitchie ran to where the voice came from. She saw Alex jumping up and down in a hole. "Alex! What are you doing down there?"

"I fell in. Help me out!"

"Okay." She placed her flashlight on the ground. Then she reached over and tried to pull Alex up but she was too heavy for her. "I can't."

"What do you mean you can't? Use those puny muscles you have!"

"You're too heavy! Let me go back to camp for help."

"Hell no! What if you leave me here?"

"What? I'm not like that!"

"How do I know?"

"Alex. Let go!"

"No!"

Alex ended up pulling Mitchie into the pit with her. Mitchie landed on top of Alex. Mitchie got up and started yelling at Alex. "You selfish jerk! Now we're both stuck down here!"

Alex backed up against the wall. Then she started yelling. "Damn! Not again! Why me? Why does it have to be so dark?"

Mitchie looked at Alex. "You're afraid of the dark?"

"Yeah! You got a problem?"

Mitchie looked at Alex surprised. "No." She started to look at the real Alex Russo for the first time in a long time. The smart-aleck tough girl was gone. And there she was. The innocent and vulnerable Alex she first fell in love with when she was eight. But she still hasn't realized it yet….

Alex started to gasp for air. That scared Mitchie. "Alex….are you okay?" Alex shook her head. Then suddenly, she leaned over and hugged Mitchie hard. She buried her face into Mitchie's neck and didn't let go. Mitchie stood still. She didn't know what to do. "Alex…are you okay?" Still no answer. She continued to hold Alex as she shivered in her arms. Mitchie ran her fingers through Alex's hair and whispered in her ear like she was a little child that needed comforting.

Alex began to breathe easier and calmed down. Then she realized she was holding onto Mitchie a little too hard. She let go, her face blushing. "Uh, sorry about that. I didn't mean to."

"It's okay."

Alex gazed at Mitchie from the light that the moon shone on her. Her eyes were closed. She was like a sleeping angel. She looked like it too with her brown hair flowing down her back, her little white dress, and she was so naturally beautiful that she didn't need make-up. Alex began to lean forward to kiss Mitchie but then suddenly Mitchie opened her eyes. Alex pulled back instantly, her cheeks turning red. 'Crap! Did she know what I was about to do?'

Mitchie patted her on the shoulder. "Hey Alex…"

"What?"

"Look. There's a full moon out tonight."

Alex looked up at the sky. The moon was full and bright. Then she looked over at Mitchie, who was smiling. Then she asked Alex, "Do you remember when we were ten, we saw the moon's reflection on the lake? You told me the moon was a ball so I would go in and get it."

Alex smiled when she reminisced about her childhood past. It had been a happy one ever since she met Mitchie. "Yeah. You went into the lake and started to get the moon ball. And you kept asking me why the ball would disappear every time you came near it. You were so stupid!" She started laughing. Mitchie gave her a look. That made Alex stop laughing. But then Mitchie gave her a little smile to show that she wasn't mad and it made Alex feel better.

"Yeah because of your dumb lies I almost ended up drowning."

"Yeah…I had to jump in and save you. I was so worried."

Mitchie looked at her. "Were you?"

Alex faced her. She was gazing directly into Mitchie's eyes. She always thought the best part about Mitchie were her eyes. They were big, innocent, and honest. Every time she looks back, she always remember them as the first thing she saw when she met Mitchie. "Yeah kinda. I mean if you ended up drowning then I have no one else to pick on."

Mitchie looked down and smiled. She knew what Alex really meant though. They continued talking about their past and before they knew it, they both fell asleep on each other's shoulders.
