STARTING STORY:
It's a week later. Alex and Jacob have gone out every night last week, Taylor with them sometimes. They were more than happy together. As for Dean, Alex has talked to him since the kiss. They talked and decided to never mention it or their feelings for each other again, since there was no way they could be together. They are friends, though.
It's Saturday today, and Alex has plans to go over to Dean's for a little while, just as friends. She's taking Taylor with her.
Alex had just finished getting Taylor dressed when her cell-phone began ringing. She pulled it out of her pocket and smiled when she read the caller ID. Jacob.
"Hey Sweetie. What's up?" Alex asked as she held the phone to her ear by her shoulder and finished combing Taylor's hair.
"Nothing much, but my mom needs to talk to you for a minute. Is that okay?" Jacob replied. Alex furrowed her eyebrows curiously.
"Yeah, sure." Alex replied unsurely. She heard the phone being shuffled around.
"Hello, Alex?" Tanya Young asked into the phone.
"Hey, Tanya. What's up?" Alex asked into the phone. She could almost see Tanya smiling at her from the other end.
"I have a big favor to ask you." Tanya replied. Alex got even more curious then.
"Alright, what is it?" Alex asked. She heard Tanya sigh just a little.
"Well, Randy and I have a big business trip in Florida. We leave on Monday morning. Jacob and Morgan are going with us, since yall's Christmas break begins then. I've already got one of Nick's friend's mom watching him. I guess what I'm wondering is, do you mind baby-sitting Anna for the week?" Mrs. Young finally asked her. Alex was quiet for a minute, thinking about Tanya's question. Finally deciding that it would be okay, she replied.
"Yeah, I can. When should I pick her up?" Alex asked Tanya, who she could hear sigh in relief.
"Oh, thank-you Alex! I'll drop her off at your house tonight at around 8, is that okay?" Tanya asked her. Alex smiled.
"That sounds good." Alex replied.
"Thank-you so much, Alex. We really appreciate this." Tanya said to Alex, making her smile.
"It's no problem at all, Mrs. Young." Alex told her.
"Alright then, thank-you. Here's Jacob." Tanya said to Alex. Alex heard shuffling for a second, and then the sound of her boyfriend's voice.
"Hey. So, what are you doing?" Jacob asked Alex. Alex smiled at the sound of his voice, but she had some questions for him.
"Just getting Taylor dressed. How come you're leaving for a week, and you didn't tell me earlier?" Alex asked him.
"Oh crap. I was sure that I already mentioned that." was Jacob's reply. Alex could just see him scratching the back of his head, something Alex learned he did when he's done something wrong.
"Well, I'm positive that you didn't." Alex said to him. She could hear him sigh a little.
"I'm sorry, Allie. Do you want to hang out some today before I have to leave tomorrow?" Jacob asked her, using the nickname he gave her. Alex smiled.
"I'm actually headed over to Dean's for a little while. But, we can hang out later and grab some dinner before your mom brings Anna over. Is that okay?" Alex asked him. She could almost see him smiling.
"That sounds great. I'll call you later then, okay?" Jacob asked her.
"Alright. Bye." Alex said to him, then hung up her phone and slid it back into her pocket. She then picked Taylor up and carried him out of the nursery.
She frowned when she walked into the living room and saw Mitchie sprawled out on the couch in her pajamas with a tub of cookie dough in one hand and the TV remote in the other hand. Alex sighed and walked over to her.
"Mitchie, where's Evie?" Alex asked her, hoping that her best friend hadn't lost her daughter when she'd lost her mind. Mitchie looked up at Alex.
"Shane's got her until dinnertime." Mitchie replied, then turned back to the TV. Mitchie had been like this ever since the night she talked to Shane and broke up with Corey. She just hasn't been herself. Of course Corey understood when she told him everything that was going on with her, and he's become her closest guy friend since then.
Alex set Taylor down in Mitchie's lap, then walked over and turned the TV off. Then, she walked over to the jaw-dropped Mitchie and snatched the remote out of her hand.
"Hey! What did you do that for?" Mitchie asked her. Alex looked at her like she'd gone insane.
"Seriously? You have to ask?" Alex asked her. Mitchie nodded her head, and Alex sighed again.
"Mitchie, you have got to get up and get out of this depression you're in. It's not you. I love you, Mitchie. But, you can't keep living like this." Alex told her. Mitchie looked at her.
"If you really loved me, you'd let me finish my soap operas while I eat cookie dough." Mitchie said to her. Alex smirked, then picked Taylor up from her lap. She shifted him to one hip, then grabbed Mitchie's hand with her free hand.
"Well then, I guess I just don't love you at all. Now, come on. You're coming with me and Taylor over to Dean's." Alex told her as she pulled her up and into her bedroom. Mitchie was too shocked to protest.
"Now, what do you want to wear? And no, Spongebob pajama pants are not a choice." Alex said to Mitchie once they got into her room. Alex made Mitchie sit on her bed and hold Taylor while she looked through her closet.
"Ooh! How about this?" Alex asked a minute later when as she pulled out a pair of dark skinny jeans and a white band t-shirt. Mitchie just shrugged her shoulders. Alex sighed and walked over to her, sitting down next to her with the clothes in her lap.
"Come on, Mitchie. Cheer up." Alex told her. Mitchie sighed a little and looked down at Taylor in her lap. When she looked back up at Alex, tears filled her eyes along with hurt.
"Lex, I… I don't know if I can do this." Mitchie said to her. Alex furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.
"You don't know if you can do what, Mitchie?" Alex asked her. Mitchie took a deep breath, and when she let it out, tears started rolling down her cheeks.
"I don't know if I can be alright through this. It hurts so bad knowing that Shane is with Rebecca. More than that, though, it hurts like hell to know that she can make him as happy as I once did. Lexie, I still love him. And, no matter how hard I try, I can't make myself stop loving him. It just.. Hurts." Mitchie finished. Alex looked at her and pulled her into a big hug, allowing her to cry on her shoulder.
"Shhh. Everything's going to be okay, Mitchie. I know you can do this. I know that you'll be able to move on and be okay. It'll take time, and it's going to hurt some. But, you can do it. I have faith in you." Alex told Mitchie. Mitchie pulled away and wiped her eyes. She looked at Alex then.
"You really believe I can do it?" Mitchie asked her. Alex smiled warmly at Mitchie.
"I really do." Alex replied. Mitchie took a deep breath, then smiled.
"Thanks, Lexie." Mitchie said to her, starting to feel better. Alex smiled.
"Feel better now?" Alex asked her. Mitchie smiled a little.
"I'm starting to." Mitchie replied. Alex grinned happily.
"Good! Now, how about you go put on this outfit I picked out, and then we'll go do something fun." Alex told Mitchie. Mitchie looked a little confused.
"But, I thought we were going to Dean's." Mitchie said. Alex smiled.
"I'll hang out with him some other time. You need some best friend time, and that's more important. But, I am going to call and see If he'll watch Taylor for me." Alex replied. Though she felt bad for having to cancel on Dean, she knew that Mitchie needing something to make her feel better was more important.
"Are you sure? I mean, I know how much you were looking forward to seeing him today." Mitchie asked Alex. Mitchie suspected that Alex still liked Dean as more than a friend, but now that Alex was with Jacob, she decided to leave her alone about it. See, Alex hasn't told Mitchie about the kiss with Dean and about how she told him that they couldn't ever be together. It's not that she's trying to hide it from Mitchie; she's not. It just hurts her to talk about it.
See, Alex isn't the type to sit down and talk about her feelings. When she's sad or angry, she doesn't like for other people to know it. She doesn't like people seeing her at her lowest.
"Yeah, I'm sure. We'll just hang out some other time. It's no big deal. Now, hand me my baby and go get dressed." Alex replied, making Mitchie grin. She stood up and passed Taylor to Alex, grabbed the outfit Alex had picked out for her, then headed for the bathroom to get dressed.
After she left, Alex looked down at Taylor, who was sitting in her lap and looking up at her.
"Well sweet boy, I sure hope best friend time today cheers Aunt Mitchie up." Alex said to him. He started smiling, making Alex break into a smile as well.
"I love you, monkey." Alex said to him, then stood up and carried him out of the room. She had to go get her phone and call to find out if Dean would watch Taylor for her.
About half an hour later…
"Okay, I put everything he'll need in his diaper bag. Are you sure you can handle him?" Alex asked Dean as she passed Taylor over to him. She was standing at his front door while Mitchie waited in the car. Dean had agreed to watch Taylor for her for the afternoon, and they'd made plans to hang out later in the week.
Dean chuckled a little as Alex's mom-mode kicked in.
"Alex, I'm absolutely positive I can handle him. I have a baby brother I take care of, you know." Dean replied, making Alex blush a little.
"Alright. Thank-you so, so much. If you need anything, call me. And, I should be back to pick him up around 5." Alex said to Dean, then looked at Taylor and kissed his forehead.
"I love you, little Taylor." Alex said to him, then giggled a little as Taylor started smiling big. Alex looked at Dean again, and a small part of her wished that she could kiss him goodbye, too.
Before Alex could say anything to Dean, he cut her off by putting his hand up to silence her. He was smiling.
"If you say thank-you again, I'm not gonna talk to you for a week. It's all okay. I can handle this little guy for a few hours. Now, go before Mitchie starts honking the horn." Dean said to her, making her smile.
"Alright. Remember to call me if you need me." Alex said to him, smiling, before she turned around and headed back down the driveway to her car. She got into the driver's side, buckled herself up, and drove away. As she turned off of Dean's street, she smiled at Mitchie.
"Now, what would you like to do today? The sky's the limit." Alex asked Mitchie with a grin. Mitchie pretended to think for a minute, before she smiled big at Alex.
"Well, your parents did give us some money before we left. And, the mall's not very far from here.." Mitchie said with a sly grin. Alex giggled, and began driving to the mall.
Later on at the mall….
Two hours and eight shopping bags later, the girls are now sitting at a table in the food court eating their lunch. They'd been having a great time, and Mitchie was feeling tons better.
"So, what's up with you and Dean?" Mitchie asked Alex as she took a sip of her drink. She decided, after she saw how giddy Alex was after seeing Dean when she dropped Taylor off, that it was time to question her best friend. Alex almost choked on her drink, then quickly swallowed it.
"W-What do you mean? Nothing's up with me and Dean." Alex replied, hoping that Mitchie wouldn't see through her lies. It was clear by the look of disbelief that Mitchie saw right through them.
"Yeah, and I'm the tooth fairy." Mitchie replied sarcastically. Alex sighed then, deciding to tell the truth or she'd never hear the end of it. Looking down at her hands, Alex replied.
"We kissed." Alex said quietly, but loud enough for Mitchie to hear her. Mitchie's eyes widened.
"What? When did this happen? And, why didn't you tell me?" Mitchie asked her, wanting answers. Alex sighed again and looked into Mitchie's eyes.
"It happened about ten minutes before I left for my date with Jacob. And, I didn't tell you because it doesn't mean anything. After the kiss, I realized how wrong it was, and we decided that it wasn't fair to Jacob or to Lizzie. So, we decided to just be friends." Alex replied. Mitchie looked at her for a minute, then her face turned sympathetic.
"Aww, Lexie. I'm so sorry. You should've told me." Mitchie said to her.
"There's nothing to be sorry about. Dean and I just aren't meant to be together. I'm perfectly happy with Jacob, and he's perfectly happy with Lizzie." Alex replied. Mitchie smiled a knowing smiled at her.
"Yeah, you're perfectly happy, but do you love Jacob? Because it's pretty obvious that you love Dean." Mitchie asked her. Alex blushed a little and looked down. She thought about Mitchie's question for a minute.
"I do love Dean, yes. Or, at least I think I do. But, I'm also starting to fall head-over-heels in love with Jacob. The more time I spend with him and the more I get to know him, I fall even harder. Is it possible for me to love two people at once?" Alex asked Mitchie quietly. Mitchie smiled sympathetically and pat Alex's hand.
"I don't know, sweets. That's something you'll have to figure out on your own. But, if the answer is yes, you'll have to make the hardest choice you've ever had to make before. Who do you love more?" Mitchie replied. Alex sighed and looked at Mitchie. She knew Mitchie was right, and she was dreading when she'd have to make that choice.
"I don't want to talk about this anymore. Let's talk about…. Shane?" Alex said, her eyes widening in shock when she saw Shane walk hand-in-hand into the food court. Rebecca was holding Everleigh. Mitchie sighed.
"Let's not talk about Shane." Mitchie said, not realizing that he was actually there.
"No I mean, Shane just walked into the food court with Evie and Rebecca." Alex said, pointing at them from over Mitchie's shoulder. Mitchie turned around to look, and what she saw made her feel bad all over again.
With Shane, Rebecca, and Everleigh…..
"So, what do my two favorite girls want to eat?" Shane asked Rebecca and Everleigh. Rebecca grinned.
"Well, I'd like a cheeseburger. And, I'm sure little Everleigh here would like some strawberry yogurt fed to her with a spoon. Isn't that right, Everleigh?" Rebecca asked the smiling baby in her arms. Rebecca giggled when Everleigh squealed in response. Shane chuckled.
"That sounds like a yes to me. Why don't you pretty ladies go find an empty table while I order?" Shane suggested. Rebecca nodded, then turned to leave. She quickly turned back around, gave Shane a kiss on the lips, then went to find a table.
Back with Mitchie and Alex…..
Unfortunately for Mitchie, the only table available for someone to sit at was the one right behind theirs. Just great.
"Lexie, is it alright if we leave? I'm not exactly sure that seeing them together is the best thing for me right now." Mitchie asked Alex, close to tears after seeing Shane and Rebecca kiss. Alex looked worried.
"Yeah, of course. Let's go." Alex replied. She stood up, along with Mitchie, and started grabbing their shopping bags. They each grabbed their drinks and started for the exit.
Mitchie stopped walking when she heard Everleigh's cries. Turning around, she saw her little girl looking at her and crying over Rebecca's shoulder. Rebecca turned around to see what Everleigh was crying at, and she understood when she saw Mitchie standing there.
"It's okay, sweetie. I'll take you to see your momma." Rebecca said calmly to Everleigh as she stood up and carried Everleigh over to Mitchie. Rebecca smiled at her.
"I think this sweet little girl spotted her momma." Rebecca said to Mitchie as she passed Everleigh over to her. Mitchie handed Alex her drink, then took Everleigh into her arms. The second Everleigh was in Mitchie's arms, she stopped crying.
"Aww. I missed you, Evie." Mitchie said with a smile to her little girl. Everleigh face broke into a smile as she looked up at her momma. Everleigh wasn't the only one feeling better, though. Having her sweet baby in her arms made Mitchie forget the hurt she was feeling only moments ago.
"Mitchie! Alex! What are you guys doing here?" Shane asked as he approached them, shocked to see them there. Alex smiled at him.
"Just having a little best friend time." Alex replied. Shane smiled at her, but he was kind of nervous being around Mitchie. He felt like he didn't know how to act around her. Mitchie looked at him, feeling a mix of emotions. The strongest one of them all, though, was love.
"We didn't mean to cut in on yall's fun. Evie just started crying. Here." Mitchie said quietly as she passed Everleigh back over to Rebecca. Mitchie finally came to the decision that it would be okay if Rebecca held her. She would always be Everleigh's mother, not Rebecca.
"Oh, you weren't keeping us. Actually, do you mind if I talk to you for a minute?" Rebecca asked Mitchie hopefully. Mitchie glanced over at Alex, silently asking her for help. Alex got the hint.
"I don't know if we have time. We were just on our way out of here to go pick up my son." Alex lied. Rebecca looked at Mitchie.
"Please? It'll only take a second." Rebecca asked Mitchie. Mitchie took a deep breath and gave in.
"Okay." Mitchie agreed. Rebecca smiled, passed Everleigh over to Alex, and lead Mitchie to the corner of the room to talk. When they got over there, Rebecca turned to face Mitchie.
"Mitchie, did I do something wrong to you? Because, if I did, just tell me whatever I can do to fix it." Rebecca asked Mitchie, looking slightly hurt. Mitchie sighed and looked down at her feet. She couldn't very well tell Rebecca that she was still in love with Shane. That's just asking for trouble. When Mitchie looked back up at Rebecca, she forced a small smile.
"Rebecca, I don't have anything against you, and I don't hate you. You didn't do anything wrong. I.. I just want you and Shane to be h-happy together. That's all." Mitchie said to Rebecca, stuttering in the middle. What she said was true. She didn't hate Rebecca; she just wished that she could be in her position. And, she did want Shane to be happy. If that meant that he had to be happy with Rebecca, not her, then she'd learn to live with it.
"Are you sure? Because I kind of got the impression that you hated me." Rebecca asked, just to make sure. Mitchie smiled a little more and nodded.
"I don't hate you. I'm glad that you can make Shane happy." Mitchie replied. Rebecca smiled at her and looked at her hopefully.
"So, since you don't hate me, is it alright if we're friends?" Rebecca asked her, shocking her. Mitchie wasn't expecting that question. Nevertheless, she forced a smile and nodded.
"That sounds great." Mitchie replied. Rebecca smiled cheerily, making Mitchie smile a bit more.
"Yay! Now, let's get back over to the others." Rebecca said happily, walking with Mitchie back over to Shane, Alex, and Everleigh. Shane looked a little worried when they returned.
"Is everything okay?" Shane asked them.
"Everything is positively great." Rebecca replied, grinning happily. She then leaned up and gave Shane a quick peck on his lips. When Mitchie saw that, it felt like someone just ripped a piece off of her heart. She quickly grabbed Everleigh into her arms for support.
Alex noticed how hurt Mitchie looked, and decided that it was time for them to leave. Now.
"Well, it was nice seeing yall, but we really have to go get Taylor. Maybe we'll see yall some other time." Alex said to them with a smile. Shane nodded and looked over at Mitchie.
"Why don't you go ahead and take Everleigh home with yall. We were gonna bring her home right after we got done here anyways." Shane said to Mitchie, who only nodded, feeling like if she talked, she might just start crying. Alex looked at her worriedly.
"Alright, bye yall!" Alex said to them, then lead Mitchie out the Exit. They didn't say a word out the front door of the mall or as they got into the car. Once everyone was buckled in, Alex turned to look at Mitchie. Tears were sliding down Mitchie's cheeks.
"Oh Mitchie." Alex said sadly and reached over and pulled Mitchie into a hug.
"Everything's okay. Everything's okay." Alex kept repeating quietly as she stroked Mitchie's back.
"Did you see how happy she makes him? Lex, I want to be able to make him that happy." Mitchie said in between cries. Alex kept hugging her and stroking her back.
"If it's meant to be, he'll come back to you. I promise." Alex said. Mitchie finally sniffled and pulled away a minute later. She wiped her eyes and looked at Alex.
"But, what if it's not meant to be?" Mitchie asked her, her voice breaking. Alex reached over and rubbed Mitchie hand with her thumb.
"Then, you'll move on and everything will be okay. You'll still have me, and you'll still have that beautiful little girl of yours, and you'll still be Taylor's favorite Aunt Mitchie. And, I bet you almost anything that you'll still have Shane. Even if he's just a friend, you'll still have him." Alex said to her best friend. Mitchie sighed a little, then looked at Alex with the tiniest smile.
"Thanks, Lex. You're the best." Mitchie said to her. Somehow, her best friend always knew what to say to make her feel better.
"No problem. Now, let's go pick up Taylor and head home. We can change into our pajamas and eat cookie dough while we watch soap operas for the rest of the day until Anna gets there." Alex said to Mitchie, who started smiling a little more.
"Lex, I hate to break it to you, but the soap operas are all over by now." Mitchie said to her. Alex smiled as she started her car.
"That's where you're wrong, my friend. The soap operas can't be all over if I have some of them on DVD to watch whenever I want." Alex said to Mitchie, who broke into a full smile then. Alex giggled and drove towards Dean's house.
At Dean's a few minutes later….
"Are you sure we shouldn't knock?' Mitchie, holding Everleigh, asked Alex as they reached Dean's door.
"I'm sure. Dean told me to just come inside when I dropped Taylor off earlier." Alex replied as she opened the front door and walked inside. Mitchie just shrugged and followed Alex into the Morriarti residence, shutting the door behind her. Alex lead them into the living room, where she stopped dead in her tracks.
What she saw made her fists clench and a glare reach her eyes. What she saw was Lizzie standing there, holding HER little Taylor. Dean was just standing there, watching and smiling. Neither of them noticed that she and Mitchie were standing there.
"Why the HELL is that demon's arms around my baby?" Alex demanded. When they heard her voice, Dean and Lizzie both whipped their heads around to face her. Dean looked a little worried. Alex had told him what had happened between her and Lizzie at the grocery store.
"Alex! What are you doing here so soon? I thought you were supposed to be out until 5." Dean asked her, hoping to change the subject very quickly before it got ugly. Alex glared at him, then marched up to Lizzie and snatched Taylor into her own arms. Then she turned to face Dean, with fire in her eyes.
"What part of, 'I hate your girlfriend's guts, she's a total BITCH' didn't you understand?" Lex demanded, quoting what she said to him when she told him about the grocery store incident. Dean put his hand on Alex's arm to calm her down, but she pushed it off quickly.
"Alex, calm down. You're making a big deal out of nothing." Dean told her, which made her even angrier.
"I'm making a big deal out of nothing? Are you freaking kidding me? I made it perfectly clear that I hate that she-devil, and you let her hold my son! You let her hold the most important thing in the world to me! What the hell is wrong with you?" Alex yelled at him. Dean silently thanked God that his parents and little brother weren't home at that moment.
Dean sighed and tried to put his hand on Alex's arm again.
"Don't touch me! I'm absolutely furious with you!" Alex yelled at him. Mitchie walked up behind her and put her hand on her shoulder.
"Lexie, calm down. Let's just go home." Mitchie said to her. Alex took a deep breath, then nodded her head. She looked down and realized that Taylor's diaper bag wasn't with her.
"Where is his diaper bag?" Alex asked Dean coldly.
"It's in my room. I'll run and get it." Dean said. He started out of the room, but hesitated when he realized that he'd be leaving Alex and Mitchie alone with Lizzie. Mitchie noticed what was bothering him.
"It's okay. I'll make sure they don't kill each other." Mitchie told him. He nodded, looking visible relieved. He then ran out of the room and upstairs to his own room. The second he left, Lizzie walked up to Alex with a smirk. It took everything Alex had not to slap her smirk right off her face. Lizzie's smirk then turned to a glare.
"If I ever see you around Dean again, you will seriously regret it." Lizzie said to her. That did it for Alex. She reached up and slapped her with her free hand. Hard.
"Listen here, bitch. I'm FAR from scared of you. But you should be scared of me. If I EVER see you with your arms around my son again, I will personally make your life a living hell. Got it?" Alex snapped at her. Before Lizzie was able to reply, Dean ran back into the room with Taylor's diaper bag. Alex glared at Lizzie for a second longer before she snatched the diaper bag out of Dean's hand and stormed out of the house. Mitchie looked at Dean.
"Thanks for watching Taylor." she said to him quietly, before leaving behind Alex.
The girls headed home and put the babies down for naps. Then, they put their shopping bags away and changed into pajamas, grabbed the tub of cookie dough out of the fridge, and settled down on the couch to watch 'One Life To Live'.
Alex was pretty much calmed down when the doorbell rang later on that night around 7. Alex got up to answer it. She was expecting Mrs. Young to be standing there holding Anna when she opened the door, but she was surprised to see Jacob standing there holding Anna. Alex grinned happily as she let them inside and shut the door. Jacob set Anna down, and Alex grinned at her.
"Hey, Anna! Why don't you head into the living room while I talk to Jacob. It's the room right next door." Alex said to Anna, who nodded and ran to the living room. Once she left, Alex grinned and wrapped her arms around Jacob's neck, pulling him in for a passionate kiss. Once they pulled away from each other, they grinned, and Jacob pulled Alex in for a hug.
"I missed you." Alex said against Jacob's chest as he hugged her. Jacob smiled.
"I missed you too." Jacob replied once they pulled apart. Alex smiled and gestured toward the pink suitcase in his hand.
"You can just set that down there. I'll go put it away in a little while. Did you mom leave any instructions for me?" Alex asked him. Jacob smiled and pulled a sheet of paper out of his back pocket and handed it to Alex.
"Thank-you very much." Alex said as she put the piece of paper down on the table beside the door.
"Now, how about those dinner plans we made earlier?" Jacob asked Alex. Alex smiled, but then looked down at her Power Rangers pajama pants.
"I'm not exactly dressed to go anywhere." Alex said to him, making him chuckle.
"No one said that we had to go somewhere. I think pizza sounds good right about now." Jacob said to her, making her grin.
"Alright. You call and order it while I go put Anna's suitcase away, okay?" Alex asked him. Jacob nodded, and Alex picked up Anna's suitcase and started carrying it to her room.
After dinner, Jacob left to go back home, and Alex made Anna a bed on the other couch in the living room. Once she was asleep, she quietly went into Mitchie's room. She sat down at the end of her bed and looked at her.
"Are you okay after everything that happened today?" Alex asked her. Mitchie sighed a little, then nodded.
"Yeah. And, if I'm not completely okay now, then I will be eventually. I thought a lot about what it would be like if me and Shane aren't meant to be. And, I realized that you were right. I will be okay." Mitchie replied, making Alex smile. She stood up and hugged Mitchie.
"You don't know how happy I am to hear that, Mitchie." Alex said with a smile. When they pulled apart, Alex smiled at her.
"Well, I just came to say good-night. I'll see you in the morning." Alex said to her, then left the room.
Mitchie smiled as Alex left, then snuggled down into her bed. She was about to turn her light off and go to sleep, when her phone buzzed. She had a new text message. Opening it, she realized it was from Corey. What it said made Mitchie's eyes widen in a happy excitement. It said:
"I want you to ask Rachel out for me."
A/N: How did yall feel about that? Corey and Rachel? I like it. (:
