Hey guys, wow you've gone gaga over Alix, I'm glad you all like her, I was really afraid that she wouldn't be liked. I'm also glad you like Alix and Jason, I can't believe you already have a couple name for them lol.
I got home last night and wrote two chapters and stayed up till 4.30am just to finish it, I would have posted this one last night but I was falling asleep so I didn't have time to read through it before I posted it. I'm going to post the other one tomorrow, I think you'll like the next one though. This chapter is pretty crucial to the story line so if anyone gets confused along the way feel free to PM me if you are.
So I'm just going to get one with it.
Disclaimer: I do not own Camp Rock, Alix is mine so paws off! lol. I don't own Demi Lovato or Lucky Twice.
What did I do to deserve this?
Tell me the truth and don't lie
You're pretty good at that but, no not this time
You walk around like you run the world
Running your mouth, and talking about me now,
They think that you're the perfect girl,
They're gonna see everything so get back
It's gonna come back around
You know that this town is just too small and I'm too strong to take this again
You're just too adverse but I've got news
You know you're just gonna lose
Everything and everyone that means so much to you.
Back Around - Demi Lovato
Chapter 11 – Back Around
Alix, Mitchie and Caitlyn spent the rest of the week over at the boy's apartment. Mitchie and Shane spent most of their time in Shane's bedroom talking and getting to know each other a little bit more, Nate and Caitlyn spending their time doing the same thing. Alix and Jason however spent their days in front of the TV talking about anything and everything, sparks were beginning to fly between them but neither one of them knew how the other felt so just kept it to themselves.
Two days after meeting Alix, Shane noticed that there was something different about Jason and decided to confront him about it; Jason said nothing. Alix also didn't want to admit to anyone that she had feelings for Jason, if only they could tell each other.
Friday was a long day for Mitchie, Caitlyn and Alix, they all had the same classes, Math, Chemistry, Home Economics and Mitchie and Caitlyn's favourite Music. Friday was the day that the class had to hand in their songs. Miss Delaware was currently going through them as the class made notes from a text book. The last few were being read, Mitchie sat in her seat apprehensively; she really didn't want to have to play it or even sing it in front of the class although it would have been easier now. Since Camp Rock Mitchie had grown a lot more confidence to sing in front of people but only a certain technique worked.
Miss Delaware shuffled the papers, going through them one more time, pulling out two sheets of crumpled paper. Mitchie's heart sank, one of those pieces of paper was here's, she knew because she was the only one that used lined yellow paper and the others used white. Dread filled Mitchie.
"Ok class, I've been through these songs and some of them are OK, some need a lot of work and these two" she said holding up the paper, "are exceptional, the best ones were, Mitchie Torres and Dakota Fisher, please come out to the front," Mitchie stood up, all eyes were on her, forty eyes on her and only her.
Mitchie reached the front of the class, Dakota by her side, the smell of sickly sweet perfume hung in the air around Mitchie and Dakota.
"Now, who would like to go first?" Miss Delaware looked at both Mitchie and Dakota,
"I will," Mitchie replied wanting to get it over and done with as soon as possible, this was going to be difficult the only time she had ever sung was if Shane was there or the dreadful experience in vocal class with Brown but then it was in front of her friends now it was in front of the most critical people in the whole school. Seniors.
Mitchie took her stance at the front of the room picking a spot on the back wall to stare at as she sung; so she could concentrate. Mitchie spotted a guitar at the back of the room,
"Could I use the guitar please, Miss Delaware?" she nodded, Mitchie walked over to the guitar picking it up and putting it around her shoulders, Dakota looked at her in disgust. Mitchie scanned the room, she saw Sierra at the back glaring at her. What was her problem? Mitchie wondered as she found the spot on the wall and started to strum.
I'm loosing myself
Trying to compete
With everyone else
Instead of just being me
Don't know where to turn
I've been stuck in this routine
I need to change my ways
Instead of always being weak
I don't want to be afraid
I wanna wake up feeling beautiful today
And know that I'm ok
Cos everyone's perfect in unusual ways
You see I just wanna believe in me
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Mitchie scanned the room getting into the song a little, she gazed over at Caitlyn who was smiling widely then at Alix whose mouth was wide open in sheer shock; Alix had never heard her sing before, and today was her first along with everyone else.
The mirror can lie
Doesn't show you what's inside
And it can tell you you're full of life
It's amazing what you can hide
Just by putting on a smile
I don't wanna be afraid
I wanna wake up feeling beautiful today
And I know that I'm ok
Cos everyone's perfect in unusual ways
You see I just wanna believe in me
Mitchie scanned the room again, she looked out at the class, everyone was staring with shocked expressions all except, Sierra, she was still glaring, it was like she was trying to pierce holes in Mitchie with her eyes. Dakota stood next Mitchie fidgeting around fixing her hair and looking at her nails in boredom, Isn't gong to work Dakota! Mitchie closed her eyes blocking out the stares from everyone and imagined that she was singing for Shane.
I'm quickly finding out
I'm not about to break down
Not today
I guess I always knew
That I had all the strength to make it through
And I cannot be afraid
I'm gonna wake up feeling beautiful today
And know that I'm ok
Cos everyone's perfect in unusual ways
You see, now, now I believe in me
Now I believe in me
The room erupted in applause as she strummed the last chord.
"Mitchie that was amazing, well done," Miss Delaware stated, "Now Dakota it's your turn, would you like to use and instrument?"
"No thank you, Miss Delaware, I can just sing." Mitchie tried not to laugh as she returned back to her seat behind Alix, Alix turned to her.
"Mitchie that was unbelievable, Cait told me you could sing, but oh my god, I didn't know you were that good!" Alix was practically leaving her seat in exclamation.
"Thanks," Alix turned back around in her chair to watch Dakota. This is going to be good. Mitchie thought to herself.
Dakota stood in the middle of the class room, breathing in through her nose and then out through her mouth. Dakota opened her mouth and the noise that came out was the worst thing Mitchie had ever heard.
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
Laughing through the day
Thinking you are never boring
Speeding through the night
Maybe you not count the morning
Mitchie, Alix and Caitlyn covered their ears, their ears felt like they were literally going to bleed.
There's nothing you can do
To keep it out
There's nothing you can do
Just scream and shout
Living for today but you can't find tomorrow
Talkin' 'bout the joy
But it never stops the sorrow
There's nothing you can do
To keep it out
There's nothing you can do
Just scream and shout
Saying
I'm so lucky lucky
I'm so lucky lucky
I'm so lovely lovely
I'm so lovely lovely
The room was completely silent. A couple of people were trying to stifle some laughs at the chorus, such a Dakota thing to say.
You can fool youself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
I'm so lucky lucky
I'm so lucky lucky
I'm so lovely lovely
I'm so lovely lovely
Even though you said
It would never end it's over
You were smiling on my arm
Now you're crying on my shoulder
There's nothing you can do
To keep it out
There;s nothing you can do
Just scream and shout
Saying
I'm so lucky lucky
I'm so lucky lucky
I'm so lovely lovely
I'm so lovely lovely
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
I'm so lucky lucky
I'm so lucky lucky
I'm so lovely lovely
I'm so lovely lovely
The room was still silent as everyone looked on in horror, Mitchie, Alix and Caitlyn weren't the only ones that had their hands over their ears nearly half of the room did, including Miss Delaware.
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
You can never be forever
Good together
Young and clever
You can never be forever
But keep it up
Don't ever stop
Through night and day
The words to say are:
I'm so lucky lucky
I'm so lucky lucky
I'm so lovely lovely
I'm so lovely lovely
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
I'mso lucky lucky
I'mso lucky lucky
I'mso lovely lovely
I'mso lovely lovely
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
The room erupted in laughs, even Miss Delaware was laughing, Dakota looked totally pissed off, and no one could stop as Dakota stood at the front taking it with a face like a dog chewing on a wasp.
"Well Dakota that was lovely" Miss Delaware tried to say through her fit of laughs. The loud shrill of the school bell rang out through the room, everyone started to gather their things up as they continued to laugh. Miss Delaware had got herself under control before saying "Finish the notes for homework please, I want them on Monday!" she shouted it over the top of the laughs.
Mitchie, Alix and Caitlyn left the room still in fits of laughter. They all walked down the hall together laughing gaining strange stares from other students passing by. They eventually reached their lockers,
"That was the best thing I've seen since the food fight with Tess, at Camp Rock." Caitlyn laughed,
"Yeah, I totally agree," Mitchie replied, Alix looked confused, "We'll tell you about it over lunch," Mitchie said trying to calm herself from the laughs. Alix nodded, as she pulled her bag over her shoulder.
12.15pm – School Cafeteria
Mitchie, Alix and Caitlyn sat at a table in the corner, by the vending machines, talking about the food fight between, Tess and Caitlyn from the summer.
"So she had spaghetti dangling from her hair, it was hanging out of her shirt and everything, it was so funny" Mitchie told Alix who was smiling widely,
"Yeah but I didn't find it so funny then did I? When I had to do kitchen duty," Caitlyn replied,
"Yeah but if you hadn't then we would never have become friends," Mitchie stretched over to Caitlyn hugging her sideways,
"That's true, you are one amazing friend, Mitchie!" Alix nodded in agreement with Caitlyn.
"Aww, thanks guys!" Mitchie smiled. The smile was ripped from her face as Dakota walked towards their table, Sierra hot on her heels.
"Well, Torres, that was some song, who wrote that for you? Your so called boyfriend?" Dakota spat,
"Excuse me?" Mitchie stood up to get eye level,
"Your heard her," Sierra replied now stood next to Dakota, "We've heard about you bragging about you and Shane, your not even dating your just pretending so people will be friends with you," Caitlyn scoffed,
"Shut up skank," Dakota spat maliciously
"Don't you dare talk to her like that," Alix was now on her feet getting right in Dakota's face,
"What are you going to do about it Goth girl?" Dakota said equally getting in Alix's face,
"Nothing, you're not worth the energy," Alix spoke with an equally malicious tone,
"What's the matter you scared, Goth girl?" Sierra spoke from the opposite side of Dakota,
"No, your not worth it, you're a waste of space both of you, where do you get off making people's lives miserable like this, huh, what just 'cos you haven't got any "real" friends just people that are scared of you that will do anything for you, you think that you can come over here and have the nerve to talk to us like we're some kind of bug on your over priced shoes," Every eye in the cafeteria was on Alix and Dakota, waiting for something to happen. Dakota spun around and began to walk away, "Yeah that's right walk away never thought that I'd stick up for my friends did you? Yeah this is what real friends do Dakota!" Alix yelled. Dakota was out of site along with Sierra.
"Jeez Alix, where did that come from?" Caitlyn said as Alix sat back down to eat her lunch,
"I dunno, I just get so annoyed when people like her start to bully people like us, she thinks she so clever calling me Goth girl, yeah like I'm going to find that insulting, is that the best she could come up with?" Alix replied stabbing at a piece of chicken on her plate. Caitlyn smiled. Mitchie looked around,
"Everyone's still staring!" Mitchie stated returning to her own seat,
"The shows over people! You can go back to your lives!" Alix yelled, instantly everyone turned back to their tables now chatting about the last 10 minutes.
"You know that she's going to do something really bad to us now right?" Mitchie said "I've been at school with her since the 1st grade, she'll want revenge."
"Oh come on Mitch, I can handle it, and besides, you can't let it affect you, she's not worth the time and energy," Alix replied, stabbing at more chicken
"She's right Mitch, it's not worth it and besides if you ignore her she'll get tired of it and leave you alone" Caitlyn told her.
"Yeah, it was just when she started talking about Shane, how did she find out about that?" Mitchie asked looking both alarmed and saddened.
"Mitchie, your picture has been in nearly every tabloid for the last 3 weeks, someone's bound to find out it's you," Caitlyn spoke quietly so that no one else could listen to the conversation,
"Yeah but I've always gone out wearing a hat and sunglasses so how come she knew?" Mitchie replied, thinking it over in her mind,
"Yeah, now I come to think of it all the magazines you've been in you have been wearing a hat and sunglasses, and no one can really tell it's you," Caitlyn replied, pondering.
3.00pm – Outside school,
The girls walked steadily towards the car containing Shane and Nate. As they drew closer they sped up their pace a little bit wanting to get home as soon as possible. They reached the car in no time at all, opening the doors and climbing in. Nate, Caitlyn and Alix in the back, Mitchie and Shane in the front. Mitchie and Caitlyn each gave their boyfriends a hello kiss. Mitchie noticed Shane's open window,
"Shane, why have you got the window open it's cold out there," Mitchie asked looking confused,
"Yeah well it was hot in here," Mitchie laughed
"Strange boy" Shane looked at Mitchie with mock shock,
"Oh don't give me that face," Mitchie said laughing,
"Why not?" Shane asked surprised
"Because it makes you look so darn hot," Mitchie said smiling at him, Shane blushed a little,
"Is that Shane Gray blushing?" Alix asked laughing
"Ok enough of this lets just go home!" Shane said trying to get the car in gear before diving away.
Behind a tree stood Dakota and Sierra, huddled together tightly in order not to be seen. Dakota had a camera in one hand zooming in on Shane and Mitchie in the front seat of the black SUV, she snapped a picture as they kissed. An evil smile crossed Dakota's make up caked face,
"Why are you smiling like that?" Sierra asked
"Revenge Sierra. Revenge."
Dun dun dunnnnnnnnnnnnn. What's she going to do?
I think this chapter really sucked really, I don't think I wrote it very well but let me know what you think please. Oh and the songs I used in this chapter were; Believe In Me by Demi Lovato and Lucky by Lucky Twice, I needed a cheesy song, that sounded like she had wrote it.
Please press that green button and make my day. =D
