Disclaimer: I do not Wizards or Camp rock, nor the little quote from South of Nowhere
Walking into the chruch I look around for Mitchie, who I haven't seen since friday. I pull out my phone texting her 'Were r u' before I walk with Justin and Max to the youth room, glancing around for Mitchie on the way.
As we sit down Justin turns from Max to look at me. "Where Mitchie? She's usually here by now," He looks at his watch, reading nine twenty five.
I shrug "I dont know," as I speak my phone vibrates signaling a text. 'On our way runnin' late' I look up at Justin "She's running late." relaying the message. He nods as some of the younger kids wallk through the door, Max stands leaving us without as much as a goodbye and walking to the back of the room. Soon after everyone else starts filling in the seats behind us, everyone except Mitchie. Pastor Jessie walks in cutting any conversations to an end, as he begans to talk. I feel someone sitting next to me, I turn my head smiling at Mitchie, resting my hand on hers laying on the chair, before turning my attention back to Pastor Jessie.
Forty minutes later and I'm half asleep on Mitchies shoulder, I'm tired of listening to him talk and my eyes hurt from rolling them so much, I guess I just don't agree with anything he has to say. Finally I hear the wonderful words of you are dismissed, jumping up I yank Mitchie by the arm and out the door. Walking or more like running down the hall and up the stairs I turn the corner opening one of doors.
Pulling her in, leaning her against as I close it, I hear her giggle shaking her head. "Someone's eager aren't we." I smile leaning in in slowly, I capture lips, resting my hands on her hips I feel her arms wrap around my neck. She breaks the kiss resting her forhead against mine. We stay like that for a moment, "I missed you." Her nose brushes mine as she speaks.
Before I can say anything she quickly captures my lips, running her tongue along my bottom lip. I here her moan softly as our tongues meet, fighting for dominance. We break apart a few minutes later, breathing heavily, she rest her head on the door. She looking at me with such an intense look, its like she's searching for something. I smile looking her in the eye, she smiles back leaning forward kissing me softly before wrapping her arms around my waist, resting her head on my shoulder. I wonder if I should ask her why she's being this way, not that I don't enjoy it, I just know somethings wrong.
She mumbles into my shoulder "Alex" Hug me tigher as she speaks.
"Yeah?" I ask hugging her back as I feel her hands shake against my back. She stays quiet for a moment as I feel her shaking increasing. She mumbles something into my shoulder, "What babe, I can't hear, whats wrong?"
She lifts her head looking me directly in the eye,"I love you." I feel my heart stop at her words, I see tears forming in her eyes, she tries giving me a smile but it doesn't reach her eyes.
"I love you too." I smile leaning in kissing her, hoping it will show her just how much I mean it. Pulling her into another hug I hear her sigh, "Mitch whats wrong why are you crying?"
"I don't know I just have a bad feeling somethings going to happen, and I'm afraid it has to do with us." She whispers it into my neck before placing a faint kiss there.
"What ever happens we have eachother, right?" She nods " I wont leave you no matter what..I love you." I hug her tighter hoping to calm her fears alittle, still unsure of where they came from.
"I love you too, and if something happens I will fight for you, forever if I have to." She glances up her head barely leaving my shoulder, before returning there.
We stay like that before both of our phones ring signaling its time to leave the church. We walk hand and hand until we reach the last hall before the main lobby, seeing our parents talking a little ways away from the main doors. They stop talking as we get closer, we smile when they look our way.
"We're where you girls?" Her mom smile at us raising a eyebrow.
"We were just walking around upstairs and stuff. Wheres Justin and Max?" I ask changing the subject, though honestly wondering where my brothers are.
"They went out with Pastor Jessie and some of the other boys." Mitchies dad answers smiling at us.
"Well come on Alex we should be heading home, I'll make us something for lunch." Mom grabs my arm pulling me away, I hear Mitchies dad say something before they walk away. I glance back at Mitchie seeing her in the same situtation being pulled away by her dad instead. I mouth 'I love you' she smiles returning it before mom pulls me out the door.
Walking through the front door, greeted by Echo, before letting her out on to the tarrace. I hear mom and dad talking in rushed whispers still by the front door.
"Everything ok?" I look between them, dad glances at mom before speaking " We need to talk." They walk toward the couch patting the chair next to. This can't be good,
Dad speak first, "Is there anything you want to tell us?" His tone is calm, as he stares at me, waiting for an answer. I shake my head, nervous for where this is going. "We know more then you think Alex," He pauses waiting again for a response from me, one I dont want to give.
Mom speaks in the same tone as dad, "Honey we know about you and Mitchie." She reaches over resting a hand on my knee.
Clasping my hand together in my lap, swallowing the lump in my throat, I speak." I don't know what your talking about." I stare down at my hands afriad to look at them, still unsure of where this is going.
"There is no point in lying Alex we know." Dad speaks his voice rising alittle. Mom moves her hand from my knee now resting on dads knee trying to keep him calm.
"Sweetie we decided its best if we change your schedule around at school and see if that will help,"My head snaps up so fast I swaer I heard my neck pop."Maybe your just spending to much time together."
Shaking my head I reply "No, it doesn't matter how much time we spend or don't spend together, I will still feel the same way." I feel the tears building up, I fight them refusing to show them weakness.
"You're just experimenting in time this will pass..." I roll my eyes. "We think its best if you don't see her for awhile, you will see her at church and thats it." His voice stern as he speaks.
Shaking my head, standing "You can't do this theres nothing wrong with us being together, I will be with her one way or another. I love her, nothing you do will change that." I hear Echo scratching at the back door, as I stand walk away they stand as well.
"Alex you can't see her and thats finally, and no phone calls either." Dad's voice higher this time not quite yelling but his face turning red.
"Whatever, I'm taking Echo to the park." As I near the door dad stops me. "No, I don't want you leaving with one of us or one of your brothers."
"Are you kidding me!!!" I scream turning around to face them. Furious that they would try something as low as this,"I didn't do anything."
Mom stands behind dad looking upset, as dads face is turning redder then a tomatoe." Yes Alex you did do something wrong being with that girl is a sin!" He screams back almost as loud as me.
"Why can't you just accept that this is who I am!" I step closer but keep a distance between us, the tears returning.
He stares at me before replying in a harsh whisper "Because who you are is not acceptable." I stare at him shocked for a moment before rushing past him and up the stairs to my room. Locking the door, I crawl in to bed, grabbing Echo wrapping my arms around her, I let the tears fall thinking about how this wasn't supposed to happen. I wonder what Mitchies parents said, what if her parents dont tell her anything, and then she doesn't understand why I can't talk to her. What if this is what she mean't when she said she felt like something was going to happen. I drift to sleep Echo licking the tears away as they fall.
The next morning I wake to knocking on my door. I haven't left my room since yesterday, refusing to talk to anyone. I left my phone in the living room so I couldn't call Mitchie. I get up realizing that I have to go to school and if I'm lucky I can talk to Mitchie and see if she knows about any of this. Walking down stairs everyone is eating breakfast, ignoring them I grab a bowl of cereal staying at the counter until Mom says its time to go.
True to their word they talked the principal into changing my schedule, as they leave I glance at my new schedule they changed it so Mitchie and I are always on seprate sides of school. I glance at Justin who is watching me with a sympathetic look on his face. "Do you know how they found out?"
He silent think for a moment," Sara from youth group saw you guys on the way home from the park or something and told Mitchies parents at church yesterday." I nod "I want to help you Alex I'll find a way to talk to Mitchie, I will make sure you guys stay in contact." he smiles softly as I hug him before seprating when the bell rings.
I don't see Mitchie all day not even at lunch, I asked Justin on the walk home, he said her parents kept her home for today but she should be back tomorrow. Once home I sneak out take Echo to park waiting 'til dark to go home not wanting to see mom or dad, I don't want to hear whatever they have to say. Before I make it into the door Justin rushes up to me. "I figured out how you guess can see eachother." I jump on him giving him a hug, repeating thank you over and over. He pulls away smiling as he starts speaking "Ok heres what I got..."
A/N: I noticed that most of the chapters end up sad and depressing, I think I need to work on that. But for now I hope you enjoyed this chapter.
