Mitchie P.O.V
"Um... Alex what are you doing here" I asked her. "Hey Mitchie nice to see you too I'm here to see Dallas she wanted to show me some of the play we're doing for the game." And just like that before I can even say any thing else Dallas comes running down the stairs
"Alex you came come on let's go out to the backyard so we can practice." What the hell is going on is what I thought. "Um Dallas what are you going to teach Alex." "Well Mitchie if you must know I'm going to be teaching some basketball moves because she on the team now." And before I can ask her any thing else she cuts me off. "Sorry Mitch can't talk got to go practice." And they just run out to the back and I go back with my mom
"Who was at the sweetie" my mom asked me. "Alex she was looking for Dallas something about basketball." A huge smile starts to form on my mom face "oh my gosh she was talking about Alex no way" and just like that she starts making her way outside. So of course I follow her out there too
Alex P.O.V
"So are you going to tell me how you did it" Dallas asked me while we were shooting around. "What are you talking about Dallas" but before I could ask her what she was talking about I heard someone yell my name. "Alex! Is that you" I turn around and see Mrs. Torres standing there. "Hey Mrs. Torres how have you been" I ask her as I make my way over to say hello to her.
"I've been great when did you get back" she asked me I can tell she really wants to talk to me. "I've been back for a good month or so just trying to blend in you know." She just gives me a nod "well how come you're not hanging out with Mitchie I mean you and her use to do everything together like that one time..." And just like that Mitchie cut her off.
"Um mom lets not talk about that I mean Alex and Dallas are trying to practice we shouldn't bother them." I can tell she uncomfortable with her mom talking about out friendship that fell apart. But maybe I can have a little fun with this. "Actually I don't mind and me and Dallas were just shooting around I don't think she would mind if I talk to your mom right Dallas." I turn to look at her she just shrugs and says she doesn't mind. "Awesome well Alex come with me you can help me cool while we talk and you too Mitchie."
Back inside
"So Alex how long have you been on the basketball team." I look up and see Mitchie looking anywhere else but at me. "Since today the coach let me try out because I was new. Well more like I had to play against two of the strongest player and if I won I got in and well here I am" I always love talking to Mrs. Torres because she was like a mom to me not matter what happen.
"Wow really so Mitchie now I guess you have two people to cheer for your sister and Alex" wait Mitchie a cheerleader. "You're a cheerleader" she just nods her head. "Wow I just never thought you would be a cheer leader I mean you always said those type if people were egotistical and snobby with horrible personalities and you would never want to be anything like them."
And that's when I hit a nerve because she just got this look that I couldn't read. "Yeah well I thought you said you were never coming back here because of what happen with your dad but I guess we were both wrong" that's all it took for me to be quiet because that time she took it to far. "Mitchie! What wrong with you you're not like this" that's what her mom told her. "No it's okay Mrs. Torres Mitchie has every right to say whatever she wants to say" I said in a really low voice.
"But anyways I'm just going to go back outside with Dallas so we can practice." But just as I was about to walk away I felt someone grab my hand. "No Alex I'm sorry I didn't have any right to say that to you. But can we just talk you and me with no one else please I just really want to talk to you." I finally lifted my head and saw A lot of sincerity. Part of me wanted to say no but I just love her to much not to. So I just nod and followed to were ever she was taking me.
Mitchie P.O.V
I took Alex up to my room I just really need to talk to her with no one around. Because growing up we could always tell each other everything in my room. It was like out tree house but in a house if that makes any sense. "So this is my room I hope you don't mind it's mind of messy." She just shrugs but doesn't look at me I know what I said really hurt her.
I open the door to my room and let her in and she goes and sits at my desk chair. "Alex I'm really sorry for what I said to you I didn't mean it" I thought getting straight to the point would be better than beating around the bush. "It's fine Mitchie you have your opinion about things and that's fine but next time don't bring my dad into it." I know she's holding in her anger but she said something that hurt me too.
"Why are you getting so mad you started it you just had to go say stuff about me being a cheer leader" and that's the truth she did. "No I just said what you told me when we were little that you would rather be dead than be a cheer leader." I can feel this conversation heading for the wrong direction but right now I don't care. "You haven't been here for seven years you don't know how much I've changed to tried to fit in."
"See you said it your self you are trying to fit in and you are not being your self. You want to know how I know that." She waits for me to give her a response so I just nod. "The Mitchie I knew never wanted to fit in she wanted to be her own person to stand out from the crowd to be original one of kind I would even say. You hate cheering I know you because growing up you wanted to be a singer you wanted to be like Kelly Clarkson trying to inspire people with your music and being a role model for people. I know this because I defended you and cared for you because I knew you could be the biggest inspiration out there."
"That's the thing Alex I grew up and I got a grip on reality." She just looked at me like I was crazy " what are you talking about."
"When you left I finally understood that every dream I had. Was just that a dream and nothing more I can't be a singer I have one in a million chance of getting that dream and there people who are way more talented me."
"You know who you just sound like right there Miley. Of course no wonder you don't believe in your self Miley was the one who told you you couldn't do it right ." I just look down when she said that because I know what she is saying is the truth. "I knew the reason you're always Miley sidekick is because you no confidence in your self. You want to know why me and Miley never got along and I know you won't remember this. Is because if that bully you I would always protect you from was Gigi but that was because Miley told her to pick on you."
I just stayed quiet no she's lying Miley wouldn't do that to me. "You're lying" I say above a whisper. "Truth hurt doesn't it Mitchie. You could hate me, Gigi all you want but in the end I was the one that was holding you when you were crying because of stuff that Gigi did. I found out that Gigi didn't want to hurt your felling because I saw Miley pick on her to be so mean to you or it would be worst for you. Think about it Mitchie you and Miley only started talking when you made it to high school or maybe it was when you started to change who you really are."
I can't. she isn't. I couldn't even put the word in my head then something she said just stood out to me "I don't hate you I never did. To be honest I don't think you would ever understand what you really mean to me." I look up at her and saw something that I haven't seen in so long love and compassion. "Mitchie you mean so much to me too but I know that once I leave this door you're going back to being the Mitchie that everybody else wants you to be not the Mitchie I know and love." Love she loves me like in a friendship way or in the other way. No of course not in the other way she's not even gay. "Maybe we could just start over." She just smiles and nod "yeah I'd really like that... Hi I'm Alex Ruesso what's your name" she said as she extend her arm out. I just smile and nod "Hi I'm Mitchie Torres." And once our hand touch I felt a spark and all I could think of I hope this is the start of something new.
