After a few requests, I've decided people are waiting for this chapter, so here it is, everyone! Another chapter filled with drama, as usual. Isn't that what people like in stories? Hah. Please review if you deem it worthy.

Chapter 11

It was a night just like any other when Caitlyn finished her cleaning and put all her supplies away. There was yet another social event going on downstairs, and she couldn't help but feel her nerves churning. Mitchie was down there.

Caitlyn had seen her. She was wearing some over done-yet, stunning-outfit that made Caitlyn feel like nothing more than a nobody. It was understandable that she was wary of Shane spending time with the brunette, right?

There had been so many moments when Shane had made Caitlyn feel so special-it was like nothing else in the world. Their dates had been secretive and often short, but numerous just the same. It had been a month and she was thoroughly pleased with her decision to trust Shane.

Inside, she was getting tired of their hiding. If Shane really cared for her-and she was beginning to find herself believing this whole heartedly-then why should he be afraid to let others know? Caitlyn was even turning over the thought of talking about it with Shane, to see if he was willing to at least tell his parents.

The party downstairs wasn't as formal as the last one, so Caitlyn didn't feel quite so plain in her skinny jeans and t-shirt. She had seen Mitchie's fancy leather pants and extravagant-and a little immodest- shirt. And her shoes screamed expensive. It was obvious she was trying to impress someone (Shane).

In attempt to ease her worry, Caitlyn had forced herself to focus on the quiet times she and Shane had spent together. One of the things she liked the most about him, was his willingness to be spontaneous and crazy alongside her.

When she wanted to walk through the seemingly endless field at midnight in her bare feet, Shane had simply chuckled and obliged. The time she just felt like sitting in the sand and watching the waves as the rain fell in torrents, Shane was seated next to her the entire time, arm holding her close.

At one time, they were supposed to meet at the high school before heading to a late movie. The parking lot and school building was empty and Shane was running late, so Caitlyn turned her radio up as loud as possible and what started out as getting out of her car and tapping her toes to the beat, ended up in all out dancing.

When Shane had arrived, he jumped eagerly out of his car and joined her without question, a bright grin on his face as he laughed at her endless energy.

Those were the things Caitlyn wanted to keep in her heart for all eternity-even if Shane left her someday. That's how she wanted to remember her and Shane being-having crazy fun.

Everything was finished and Caitlyn was just about to leave for the night, but quickly ducked around a corner when she heard voices in the hall she had been going down. If there was one thing she didn't like, it was to be seen by any guests and receive that all too familiar scornful look.

"What did you want, Mitchie?" Shane's hushed tone was heard and Caitlyn could hear the impatience in his voice. It wasn't too hard to remain calm, despite the jealousy running through her at the though to of Mitchie and Shane being alone together.

"You know what I want." She spoke softly, not failing at trying to sound sweet and adoring, "Shane, don't you see how much you mean to me?"

"We've talked about this." His stressed tone could be heard by Caitlyn, attempting to control her boiling anger as she peaked around the corner into the dim hall.

"You're so cute when you're shy," Mitchie commented, the smile audible in her tone, "The parents aren't here right now, Shane, you don't have to be self conscious."

"I'm not." He stated sternly.

"Then kiss me," Mitchie murmured, and Caitlyn clenched her fists at the sight of the girl pressing herself closely against Shane. Impatiently, she waited for Shane to push her away-he would any minute now.

"You can't tell me you don't feel something." Mitchie whispered, one of her hands sliding up Shane's chest while the other rested on his hip. Caitlyn felt herself grow hot with anger.

No one was supposed to touch Shane that way. Caitlyn didn't even let herself be so forward. After that one night of the incident when she finally let herself believe Shane, she had given herself unspoken boundaries that were not to be crossed. Mitchie was crossing them all.

It was hard to keep herself staying where she was. She had never known it was this bad with Mitchie. Why hadn't Shane told her that her infatuation with him was more than just verbal, but also physical?

"Where's your room, Shane? You've never shown it to me." Mitchie breathed in his ear, one of her hands toying with the buttons on his shirt. Caitlyn bit her tongue hard, feeling the time pass agonizingly slow. A little cold fear crept in slowly, only growing with each passing moment that Shane didn't push Mitchie away.

"It's not something you need to see." He stated coldly, but Caitlyn wasn't waiting for his words-she was waiting for his actions at distancing himself from the annoying girl before him.

Caitlyn couldn't watch anymore, but was overcome by her anger and stepped into the hallway. Surprisingly, she didn't do or say anything to the couple that were much too close, but stomped by and ran out the door.

Whether Shane had even had the decency to move away from Mitchie at this point or not, Caitlyn couldn't care less. Mitchie's lips had been mere centimeters from his as she passed, and the thought that he didn't seem to mind angered her even more.

On the drive home, Caitlyn wasn't sure whether to cry or scowl.

I trust that if people really did like this chapter, I won't have to ask for reviews because they'll just WANT to review and tell me what they thought…….Now, watch me get 0. Lol!

…Wow, that would be depressing…

(If you have the guts to say something nasty, you should have the guts to NOT review anonymous. This happened recently, and it's ridiculous to think someone can talk so rudely and NOT identify themselves…how immature… But I laughed.)
