My Past and My Future Collide
Chapter 11: Phone and Dinner
The next morning Shane's mom is in the Kitchen cooking breakfast waiting for Shane and Jenny to get up for breakfast. She saw Shane's phone on the counter realizing he hasn't checked it. So she went over and turned it on. She was going to give it back to him when he woke up. She hadn't had it on so when it turned on a few messages beeped signaling there was a few. She knew it was wrong but it was for Shane's sake and for his own good.
She saw missed calls from Nate and Brown and was going to make sure Shane knew about this. She then saw a text message from an anonymous sender. She opened it up and her face grew a furious red, anybody would be scared. There on the screen was the girl his son was in love with making out with the boy who was in the previous pictures. She wanted to scream. Why would Shane be in love with the worst person right now? It wasn't fair, and he doesn't really know all that's going on at Camp Rock and she wasn't about to let him know.
She was so sick of this. She wanted her son to be happy, find love and be loved back. This was not love this was just cruelty. She just couldn't believe that the one person to bring Shane back, to get him to be himself again was the girl that was breaking this heart. Well she would never do it again. She threw the phone to the wall and it shattered into a million pieces.
She sighed after she did it. She would be getting him a new phone today. He needed one and that was that. He could give the number to Nate and Jason and the few people he needed to contact and some friends that were actually friends. She sighed and continued making breakfast.
Shane woke up yawning, the sun beaming in on his face as he remembers falling asleep in the living room now. He was going to stretch when he noticed his hand was held down by a tiny one and remembered Jenny was sleeping right in front of him. He chuckled and smiled. She was pretty gorgeous, more so then he remembered. She didn't wear her glasses so much anymore, she had her braces off and well she was just a mature young woman and he was impressed.
He smiled deciding to keep laying down not wanting to wake her. He was kind of holding her and he didn't mind that much. He lays his head down on the pillow and was able to smell her hair. He took in her scent and it was vanilla and he just smiled closing his eyes. Still awake he lay there. She was a really good friend but was that all she was? For now it was.
Soon he felt her hand and he squeezes back. She shifted and looked at him and smiled. She swore she was dreaming. She closed her eyes then fluttered them open to still see Shane smiling at her and she wasn't feeling bad about it at all. No wonder she was warm all night. His body eat was keeping him warm and she felt his hand intertwined with hers and just giggles.
"Have you been up long" She asked yawning
"About half an hour" he mentioned
"You could've left, or woke me up Shane" She said sitting up and stretching
"Its' fine, I was told when I was little with friends into princesses that you must leave a sleep beauty sleep" He said knowing she once said that and it caused her to giggle and slightly turn pink
"I faintly remember that" She said giggling and he chuckled
"Do you always blush and giggle after a compliment" He said teasing her
"Maybe" She said standing up and straightening out her outfit which was slept in "I should probably go home though" She said
"Nope, stay for breakfast, mom is probably cooking, then you can go home" He said "Unless I mean you want to leave" He said walking towards the kitchen
"Fine, you win" She fake pouts and walks into the kitchen sitting down with him as they smell the food and his mom smiled at them
"Hey you two, finally up" she says
"Yup" Shane says stretching
"Yeah, thanks for letting me stay though" Jenny said
"No problem Sweetie, we let your parents know" His mom said
"Okay thanks, do you mind if I stay for breakfast" She asked politely and Shane rolled his eyes
"Of course not" She said passing them both a plate with pancakes and sausages
"Thanks mom looks great" he said smiling
"Thanks" Jenny said taking a bite "Wow they are really good" She complimented and kept eating their pancakes
"Shane tell dad I had somewhere to go I'll be back within an hour" she said and grabbed her purse
"Sure bye mom, thanks" He said and she left
His dad soon came down grabbing a plate of food that was left for him and a mug of coffee and started reading the paper.
"Hey son, Jenny" he said before consuming himself in the sports section
"Dad, mom had something to do then she would be back" Shane said
"Sure" He said and was lost again
"Does he always do that" Jenny asked
"His morning routine" Shane said finishing is breakfast "What are you doing today" He asked casually
"I have to unpack I've been putting it off" She said laughing "Then probably nothing" she confirmed "We can hang out if you want, unless you're busy"
Shane thought about it for a moment. He loves spending time with Jenny. It was comfortable and like it used to be just more mature then chasing each other around the lawn. He smiled
"Sure what did you have in mind?" he asked
"We could go to the new pizzeria in town it just opened and haven't been yet?" She asked "Unless you're too famous" She said teasing
"No, sounds good actually, then we can go to the arcade, it's still open isn't it?" he asked
"Yeah, sure like old times" She said knowing it would be fun "How about we go for like what 7:30 8?" she asked
"I can pick you up 8 then we can go eat then play a few games" He suggested
"Sure, I'll give you my number" she said pulling out her new phone
"Yeah sure, mines on the counter" He said taking the plates opening the garbage to scrape them and saw the pieces of his phone in the garbage
"Well my phone is broken" He said confused "and in a million pieces, here I'll give you my number" he says putting the plates on the counter and walks over
"Sure" She says handing him her phone
He enters the house number "Just call when you are ready and I'll come over, just so I'm not too early" He said laughing making fun that girl's take forever and hands her phone back to her
"Right" she says hitting him "I should get going" she said standing up and he walked her to the door
"Alright bye Jen, I'll see you tonight" he said giving her a quick hug
"Okay bye Shane" she said hugging him back then getting into her car her body shaking and screaming.
She got in her car turning on her music and saw he closed the door and kicked her legs up and down. Okay maybe she was being a little over dramatic but she was going out in public with her friend Shane Gray. Sure they were friends but there was no way she was denying she liked him a little more than that. She wouldn't tell him but she pretended to be long to be with him. Anyways she drove off. It wasn't a date but she could dream, no harm in that right?
Shane went up to his room and figured he should probably unpack to. He hadn't because he didn't know if he would end up staying here. He was sure he definitely was even if people knew he was in town. He started unpacking his clothes and some personal items out of his back. He threw a book with his music in it on his bed looking at the phone number on his hand and smiled. He snapped out of his thoughts of Jenny to keep unpacking he didn't like her like that did he? Ugh why was his mind occupied with her smell? Mmm Vanilla. DAMN IT SHANE! STOP!
He slapped himself and focused as much as possible on his unpacking when there was a knock on his door.
"It's open" He says putting some stuff away
"Hey Shane" His mom said coming in "Staying for a while" She asked
"Probably a month or so" he said "Thought I will leave out of a suitcase" He said and she smiled as he sat on his bed "What's up" he asked
"Not much I have something for you" she said
"Oh really, you didn't have to get me anything mom" He said honestly
"Yeah I did. I Accidently dropped your phone and it kind of exploded so here" She said handing him a box with a little bow and it was the new sidekick slide. It was a green one, is favorite color. It was flat and rectangular. The front screen slid up showing a full keyboard and screen above.
"Wow mom thanks" he said hugging her "It's awesome"
"Thanks, I thought you would like it" He said hugging her son back
"Same number" He asked
"No it's 555-GRAY, so 4729" she said smiling
"Okay thanks" He says taking it out of the box and playing with it "I'll set It up" he smiles "Oh can I borrow the car me and Jenny are going to the arcade around 8" he said smiling
"Sure, are you eating with us?" She asked
"Nope, but I'll be down later, going to finish some things up here" He said
"Okay bye Shane" She says leaving and he starts playing on his phone.
He added Nate, Jason, His uncle Brown, his mom, his dad, Jenny and for now that was about it. He sent a mass message too everyone but his mom and dad.
Hey, it's Shane. I got a new phone so this is the number… add it and I'll talk to you all soon.
He pressed send then he opened another screen pondering if he should to this. He blocked his number from the message and types in the phone number he remembered and probably wouldn't forget. He made sure is number was completely blocked so it could never be traced.
Got new number, goodbye Mitchie. ~Gray, S
He sent it hoping she would know he wasn't expecting anything back, she wouldn't know where to send it as he made it impossible to send back to the number. He deleted the messages and slipped the phone into his pocket. She started to unpack more stuff humming along some music and excited about tonight. He would have fun, not be completely normal but be like he used to, just have fun.
It was 7:30 and Shane just got out of the shower. He slipped on a pair of white skinny jeans. He slipped on green t-shirt with AE37 on it. He smiled walking into the bathroom shaking out his hair drying it kind of with a towel. He washed his face and brushed his teeth making sure he was presentable unlike the last few days. He smiled knowing he had no dark circles and smiled.
He walks out grabbing his wallet and phone sliding them into his jeans pockets. He goes to his dresser and gets out is Gucci sunglasses and stick them on his head. Then his phone rings Jenny's ID.
"Hey Jen, you ready?" he asks
"Yeah, if you are" She says laughing "We both know you take forever
"Yes, see you in about 10" He said and said bye then hung up slipping it back into his pocket
"Hey mom, could I get the keys" He asks
"Sure, you look good tonight" She says smiling
"Got a hot date tonight?" His dad asked and Shane glares at him
"No I'm going to the arcade with Jenny" he said as his mom hands him the keys
"I have my phone if you need me" He informed then as he puts his glasses on his eyes and headed towards the door
"Be careful Shane" His mom said once again
"Yes mom bye" He said annoyed and walks out of the door
He unlocked into the car, got in and brought then engine to life. He pulled out and headed towards Jenny's house. The now setting sun blocked by his shades. He smiled seeing it's 10 to 8 as he pulled onto the main street of New Jersey getting close to her house every mile. He was happy he was doing this.
He finally got to her house and pulled into the lane way. He put his glasses into the console as it was getting darker. He stepped out of the car and straightened out his t-shirt then walked to the door and rang the doorbell. Mrs. Garth answered
"Well hello Shane" She said politely "It's nice to see you again"
"You too Mrs. Garth, is Jenny ready" He asked shaking her hand
"Jen, Shane is here" She called up
"Coming" Jenny called then he heard her coming down the stairs and she looked really beautiful, casual but gorgeous at the same time.
"Hey" Shane said smiling
"Hey Shane" she replied smiling
She was in a pair of blue tight knee length shorts with white Hawaiian flowers up the side. She was in a white t-shirt the ended just above her hips where the shorts ended; he had to admit seeing a little bit of her body wasn't demeaning to her at all. She definitely had a body. Damn Shane she is a friend. He had to keep reminding himself of that, constantly.
Her long blonde hair was done curled and left down running down her shoulder. She had it back with a think aqua blue headband. He noticed the slight blush applied to her cheeks and how her crystal blue eyes popped with the proper eye-shadow for her complexion and eyes. Wow he was going into detail. Her lips shiny with lip gloss, and he was almost breathless. He shook his head and smiled
"So ready to go" he asked
"Yeah" She answered slipping on a pair of flip flops and draping her blue bag over her shoulder
"Let's go then" He said smiling "Nice to see you again Mrs. Garth
"You too Shane, and Jen home by 2" She said
"Don't worry mom" Jen said and walked out with Shane getting in the car
"2 eh" Shane asked laughing "It's like we are on a date or something" He says
"She is so annoying" Jen says blushing a little and he knew he shouldn't have said date
"Anyway, pizzeria first" He suggested
"Definitely I'm starving" She said smiling
"Okay and you look pretty Jen" He said continuing to concentrate on the road and he glanced her cheek deepening in colour. He knew she wouldn't have to wear blush. He chuckled to him self
"Thanks, you're a lot more stylish then me" She said giggling and her soft giggle entered my ears as a pleasure sound of music to my ears
"We both are stylish Jen" He says laughing as he pulls up and parks on the road near the pizzeria and turns to her "Before we go in, if anyone spots me I'm apologizing ahead of time" he said seriously
"I forgive you ahead of time" She said "Come on rock start lets go" she laughing as he put on his sunglasses in the dark and walked over getting her out of the car then going onto the side walk.
They had a block or two too walk, it was the summer so the main street around here was usually busy. They got to the interest with only a few whispers here and there which were barely noticeable. It was slightly busy.
"Hey could we get a table for two" he said
"It will be about 20 minutes" She said
"That's fine" he said smiling
"Okay your name please" She asked
"Garth" he said not wanting to say Gray
"Okay thank you" She said and he and Jenny walked over to a corner waiting
"Sorry I used your name" He said "Gray would've been a little obvious" He laughed whispering it quietly
"It's okay as soon as those glasses come off we will be lucky, to not be noticed. Oh and you aren't eating with them on so don't argue" She said laughing as he fake pouts
"Fine" he says defeated laughing
They finally get the table and they sit down. The pizzeria was pretty cool. It was all red a blue with pictures of pizza's along the walls. The smell was amazing. It was all booths and definitely a teenagers place to chill out with friends. It had awesome music blaring as they noticed a DJ.
"Okay so Shane take your glasses off" Jenny said crossing her arms
He took a really deep breath "Okay" He held his breath well he took them off then let out a sigh of relief as she giggled
"You know, you may be famous, but you are still the ridiculous, Shane I knew like 6 years ago" She laughs and I smile
"That is why you love me" He said jokingly and as a friend
"Sure" She said rolling her eyes "That's why" she said giggling
"Whatever" He said opening the pizza shaped menu that was stationed on the table "This is so cool" He said laughing
"Yup, what do you want on your pizza" She asked
"Well according to the menu we assemble it" He laughed "So deep dish, thick, regular, or thin" he asked
"Deep dish, they are so good" She said smiling
"My first choice" He smiles "Now the cheese" He said
"Well originally mozzarella" She said laughing
"They offer Swiss. Who eats Swiss on pizza?" he asked and she giggles
"We'll stick with mozzarella" She laughs and he agrees
"Topping?" he asked
"Pepperoni" She says
"Bacon" He says
"How about some green peppers" She asked
"Sure and…" He was going to say onions but onion breath was gross "Mushrooms?" He asked
"Sounds great" she smiled "Sounds good, oh and well done" She said
"Sure" He said smiling back at her closing the menu and letting it rest on the table like all the other did "So large to split?" He asked
"Yeah, that works" She smiling and leans back
The waitress then walked up to the table "Hi my name is Ally, I will be your server today, are you ready to order" she asked
"Well I'll have a Pepsi" Jen said
"I'll have the same and we will get the Chicago deep dish style with mozzarella for the cheese, then pepperoni, bacon, green peppers, and mushroom" Shane said as she wrote down then looked up with wide eyes "Thanks" He said smiling then turning to Jen
The waitress was still wide-eyes when she walked away and Jenny laughs.
"Does the always happen" She asks
"Unfortunately, yes" He replies "It gets annoying trust me" He says
"Well have fun because she's telling her friend" She said pointing to the waitress
She was by the counter to get drinks whispering to her friends and they all looked over then turned over when he saw them and giggles.
"Oh man" He says "Fun" He says sarcastically "Sorry, again ahead of time"
"Forgive ahead of time, again" She laughs "Let's just try to ignore it" she says and he nods his head
"Yeah lets" He smiles
Soon they hear some arguing near the counter and look over sighing.
"It's my table I will serve the drinks" They saw Ally said taking
"The pizzeria staff is a team I insist" Says a blonde haired girl
"No I insist" Says a brunette. They were all pulling at the tree different directions
"This is bad" Shane said and then they saw the tray fly and land on the blonde who shrieked with a glare. All of a sudden they saw a male pick up two Pepsi's form the counter and walks over
"Sorry about that, here are your drinks, enjoy" He said smiling then walking away
"Wow, having fun yet?" Jenny asked
"Only because you are keeping me sane" he said laughing as she took a sip form her Pepsi
They kept talking for a while until there pizza came and they started eating. It was definitely one of the best pizza's they have ever tasted. They kept eating and laughing and joking around. Jen and Shane were having a bunch of fun. Jen smiled making a weird poise
"Wait" Shane said taking out his phone and snapping a picture "That's a keeper" He said showing her and she burst out laughing.
"Fine" She pouted
Soon they bill came by Ally who kept staring at him then finally left. He got the bill and flipped it over seeing a number at the end of it.
"You have to be kidding" He said laughing "She left me her number"
Jen looked "Pretend to put it in your phone and write I'll call you it will be funny" She said smiling evilly and he smiled back
"Okay" Jen noticed Ally looking as he pretended to add it to the phone "there" He smiled and closed it
He took out his wallet and place the 40$ on it paying for Jenny and she smiled at him
"Thanks" She said
"Anytime" he said taking the pen writing 'I'll call you' then they walked out fast and got on to the side walk laughing
"She'll probably pass out" Jenny said hardly able to breathe
Shane laughs I didn't know you were so evil" He says honestly
"You have things to learn Gray" She says as they head towards the arcade across the street
They got to the arcade around 10 and had about 2 hours before it closed. Shane went and bought about 75 tokens then he and Jenny went to play games. They decided to play air hockey and they game lasted a long time. They were both very good but Shane ended up winning by one point
"Score one for me" He says laughing as she pouts "Oh come on" He says pulling her close snapping a picture of them as she was still pouting
"Let's play something else" She said walking over to a racing game and sat down as he did
They played the game tons of time blowing a lot of token on the racing games. They were always so close in the races and he couldn't stop laughing. Eventually they grew a crowd of teenager guys who were quite impressed with a girl doing that well. They finally finished as Jen won the final game
"YEAH!" She screamed and laughed raising her arms
"Fine you beat me" Shane said defeated
"No I kicked you ass Shane Gray" She said and all the guys gasped and she covered her mouth
"Run" He said grabbing her hand and they ran for the door seeing tons of teenage girls heading for them
"I can't keep up" She said struggling to keep her shoes on
"Jump" he said stopping just before the doors
She leaped onto his back as he caught her and ran through the door and down the street. He got to the stop light near his car the girls reaching closer screaming
"SHANE"
"OH MY GOD WAIT UP"
"I LOVE YOU!!"
There was tons of screams and they were so close and the light turned and Shane bolted across the light and dropped Jen at her door and Slid across his hood and got in the car speeding off. Then put his seat belt on. "What a rush" He said laughing
"I am so sorry" Jen apologized
"It's okay it was kind of fun" He said laughing seeing it was 11:30
"They really loved you" She laughed as she saw all the girls sigh shouting way behind them disappearing as they rounded the corner
"As a rock star not Shane" He says laughing
"Okay, so guess you can drop me off" she said
"Yeah, I should get home before my rents freak" He affirmed
"Okay" She smiled "Thanks it was fun though" She said
"Yeah it was really fun, the highlight was probably seeing a girl get covered in soda over me" he smiled cockily
"It was hilarious and you saying you would call her" She laughed as they pulled up into her lane way
He turns off the engine and he walks her to the door "Thanks for hanging out with me, it was the most fun I had in a long time" He said
"Same" Jenny said "Again sometime let's just not hit the arcade" she said laughing
"Agreed, well goodnight Jenny" He said giving her a hug
"Night Shane" She said hugging him "I'll call you tomorrow" She said going into the house and walking upstairs after locking it.
He walked back to his car smiling his hands in his pants pockets. He got a text message and looked to see it form Nate.
Hey dude, glad to hear from you. How is New Jersey? How you feeling
Shane smiled and texted back
Good and I'm alright, going to bed talk to you later dude
He sent then started the car and pulled out of the driveway. He looked to see Jen's room light on and she saw her dancing around happily. He instantly thought she might have the wrong impression. Sure she was a great friend, she was attractive and he loved her personality, but he wasn't ready to move on. Was he? He wouldn't use her as a rebound but being her and how attracted he is to her personality maybe it wasn't like that.
He got home in a daze. He didn't know what he was feeling. He got home and went to his room changing and laying down in bed. He just stared at the ceiling thinking about how much fun he had and everything but would it be right and most of all was he ready for a relationship? He slowly and finally fell asleep.
A/N: First of all sorry for the longest chapter ever. It is over 4400 words long, 13 pages and the longest chapter personally I ever written. It just sort of happened. So Shane is confused and well yeah. Anyways they had fun and well showed that girls are all giddy over him but seriously who wouldn't be I would. Anyways next chapter yes you will hate me all Mithcie and Trevor (Who apparently you all hate he sounds cute) anyways… how will Mitchie react when she gets the text message. I will do that then I skip to Thursday for the Pyjama Jam and yeah. Anyways thanks for reading sorry again it is so long. I like this chapter though and worked like 5 hours on it, I have soccer tomorrow so no update sorry. Hopefully by Saturday or Sunday maybe Friday if I can, I'll try. Please Read and Review and if you have idea I'd love to hear them might not use them but love to hear them. Again thanks to all the loyal reviewers.
