A/N. Sorry about my mistakes in my last author's note. I truly am sorry. The person at the door is pretty obvious. Also sorry if I make Mitchie have wrong feelings but I'm not sure on how to portray feelings after a break up, and sorry if you think that I'm rushing this chapter a bit. Hope you like it. Also sorry about the long wait and sorry if it's short. Please R&R. Thanks, Alex :)
Chapter Seven
(Little Recap)
Then I saw who was at the door and I stopped breathing. My head was spinning and my heart was racing, but not a good racing.
"Noah? What the hell are you doing here?" I angrily questioned. I don't need this right now.
"I need to tell you something and decided that it can't wait" what the hell could that be? No wait I know what this could be.
"OK then, what is it?" I could feel my friend's eyes on my back.
"Well hopefully you can move on and take this well" he paused. I saw the sorry look on his face, but since I knew what was coming next, I didn't believe it for a minute. Then I gave this look that hopefully meant you betrayed me, and I won't forgive you and that I can sooo move on.
"Um... well I found someone else. I would've told you sooner but..."
"But what, you betrayed me" I said with hurt in my voice.
"Look, I'm sorry-"
I cut him off, anger surged through me. "HOW CAN YOU BE SORRY?"
"OK, fine, I'll just say it. I'm braking up with you" I looked down, why? Was the only question and who?
"Mitchie?" he reached out to me. I jerked back.
"NO! Don't touch me. Besides it was expected, just leave me alone" I said before running off somewhere. I don't know where I was, but I could hear them still talking.
"I doubt that. Leave, dude just leave" I heard Nate say.
"Mitchie?" Shane called, standing in the doorway. This must be his room. I felt my heart start to break, not all of it just one piece, the part that loved Noah.
Then it hit me. I'm no longer in a relationship with Noah, and that piece that was breaking was beginning to get to me. I felt anger, jealousy, and betrayed. How could he do this to me? Why didn't Noah just tell me before? And who is this `someone' he fell for?
So I started sobbing. Besides, there was nothing else to do. Shane made his way over to me, and sat down, and then he wrapped his arm around my shoulders. I leant my head on his chest, my tears soaking his shirt.
After about 2 minutes I stopped. At that point I probably had puffy eyes and my face was red.
"Thanks" I said, sitting up straight.
"For what?" isn't the answer obvious?
"For being my friend and for being there when I needed a friend. Not that I'm over him completely, but..."
"Ok then, you're welcome" he replied.
"Where are the others?" I asked.
"Their upstairs, maybe we should..." Shane started. He stood up.
"Yeah" I got up too. My best friend led the way, and I just trailed along behind him.

After what seemed like four hours Caitlyn, Ella, and I went home. During the trip no one dared to talk about what had just occurred. By the look on their faces, Ella and Caitlyn probably felt sympathy for me. But why would they? I mean I already knew that Noah and I weren't the perfect match, but now I feel free and angry that he just didn't tell me in the first place.
I think the guys took it alright, but I just don't get why they looked happy, sad (probably for me, when there's no need), and Shane looked a bit relieved. (A/N hey that one line rhymed, and don't blame me if it's bad, it just came to me, so I included it)
When the limo reached my house, I sluggishly walked out and tried to have a serious, non readable face. Well better face my mom, maybe she won't... Oh never mind, as if you ever cared about him after that little encounter.
"Hey mom"
"Hi Mitchie" she continued on "So how was your day?"
"Hmm...My day, well you know, it was splendid and awesome. Now if you'll excuse meI should go and-"
She cut me off "OK what's wrong?"
"You know what's wrong, that boys do not have any courage, so they can tell their `so called' girlfriend that there in an affair with some other girl, who is probably a w...., and then they finally decide and tell you, and at that moment you feel pummelled and pissed off at him for not telling you sooner, and then you feel this free and angry feeling with a hint of happiness that's it's over, but your also sad because it's over, and you just know that you can do way better than him, but your still sad, and then you're just confused" I said in one breath.
"Mitchie Torres, you will not say those rude words again. And did Noah break up with you?" it was more of a statement, but I still answered it anyway.
"Oh no, mom, we're just the perfect, cute, little couple that makes lovey dovey faces at each other" I said with a lot of extra sarcasm.
"OK, alright no need to be sarcastic about it, and don't take your anger out on me"
"Fine. Sorry mom" I reply.
"It's ok dear" she walked toward me and pulled me into one of her hugs.

For what seemed like hours I couldn't sleep, and it was eleven already. I turned my radio on hoping that the music would calm me, and obviously it didn't.
So I thought about wringing that stupid jerks neck with my hands. Not that I like hurting people, it's just my anger that wanted him to suffer for not speaking with me about the other girl. And suddenly I fell asleep with a smile on my face.
*
Back to school, no more days of just sitting around doing nothing. This in my opinion really sucked. But today for some twisted reason everyone gets to leave at two pm.
Ever since I made sure I was calm I thought really hard about this mystery girl. My gut tells me that it's Tess, which would fit into this story really well, actually. But other than her I could think of no one else. And Noah does have a thing for blonds...
Walking to school was a pain, considering that it's like 90 degrees outside. And my classes today were all very bad, well, maybe it was the fact that I was completely distracted by the past few events, and what could happen at lunch today. Oh and I can't wait to see Noah's new girlfriend, or the-girl-I-have-a-crush-on, or the-girl-that-I've-been-with-even-though-I-already-had-a-GF-at-the-time. Yeah, I think I like the last guess. But Noah was in some of my morning classes, like one, but Tess wasn't, ah so it could be her. Ha, I know who it could be.
"So Mitchie, who d'you think this other girl, is?" Caitlyn asked, pulling me out of my trance.
"Tess" I hiss. Honestly, after going through a break-up you have some serious mood swings.
"Well, yeah, it could be" she replied.
"'It could be' what?" Nate asked confused. Caitlyn explained to one of our oblivious friends in hushed voices about what the two of us were just speaking about.
Out of nowhere Jason comes along attached to Ella, not that I mind, and babbles about something unimportant, but just in case it is I better listen.
"I almost forgot, did you guys see that loser that dumped Mitchie-"
"Thanks for telling the whole world" I mumble.
"Whatever, OK so yeah that loser, did you see him with Tess, like honestly who would pick Tess over Mitchie?" he finished.
"Um... thanks again" I say. But they ignore me.
"Apparently he would" Shane answers. What the, how did he get here? I am so not observant.
"Well who wouldn't" Jason said. I am going to explode soon.
"WHAT! You know do realize that I am right HERE!" I sort of yell, say.
"Oh, sorry, didn't know you were there" he answered.
"ARE YOU BLIND?" I bellow.
"I guess" whispered Nate.
"Yeah, Jason always did have problems with his eyes..." Shane said reminiscing.
"Guys don't be so mean" Ella said heatedly.
"Chill, they just said one little thing" Caitlyn told her. I am so growing impatient, and the worst thing possible comes my way.
"Hey people, this is Tess Tyler, but I'm sure you all know her" Noah greeted smoothly.
"Hey" the devil replied. I know I'm being so evil, but I'm on the edge of exploding, big time.
"Hi" I say through gritted teeth. Except for Ella, everyone else tries to say hi kindly.
"So Mitchie this is my new girlfriend"
"Yeah, I can see that. Um...can we talk?"
"Sure" he says while dragging the vermin.
"In private" I say, while glaring at Tess.
"OK"
We walk until we're out of earshot of my friends and the enemy.
"Alright, what did you want to say?"
"Why her?"
"Because she's awesome, kind (I gave a fake laugh) funny, and hot. Oh and her mom is famous"
"Is that all you care about fame, fortune, and good looks?"
"No, well sometimes" my face is getting hot and red.
"OK then, why didn't you tell me the millisecond that you hooked up?"
"Because you loathe her, and the feeling is mutual between you two, also she wanted me to crush your little heart"
"Why did you do what she asked?" I say trying to keep cool.
"Cause I wanted to crush you too" Noah replied.
"WHAT!" at that moment every single student turned and looked at the scene.
Hey people, sorry if it's not well written, or not my best writing, it's just that I wanted to get this up, since for the next two weeks I won't be able to post anything but I will write, so yeah. I guess that's all then.
Alex :)
