Okay, really sorry it took this long to update but my class had this project, so yeah. Um I'd also like to say that this fanfic will most likely be about fifteen chapters because I don't want to drag this story on and on. I guess that's all I have to say. Oh, and sorry if my description is off. If you all are wondering about Joey then don't it's just that I'm not going to include him anymore until the last two chapters, either that or just the last chapter. Enjoy!
Chapter Twelve
"Mitchie that was phenomenal!" my drama professor exclaimed. "Is that the song you're going to use in the show?"
"Um...most lik-"
"No, actually Sir she sang my song since she helped me with it" Tess replied slyly.
"But I wrote that song entirely by myself!"
"Why are you lying Mitchie? I thought we were friends" Tess questioned innocently.
"But I'm not!" I almost screeched.
"Mitchie its ok that you want me to believe you, but just write a new one" he then leaned towards me. "Hopefully it's better than Tess' performance"
"Whatever" I sighed. "Just sing the song Tess"
"I almost slipped and would have said a very bad profanity but I knew better than that. Besides I need to get started on writing a new song. Ugh why does my life have to be so drama filled?
I left the auditorium without a second thought. I just didn't think I could handle being in the same room as Tess anymore. Once I arrived at my house there was a huge surprise. 2 Members of Connect 3, Caitlyn, and Ella were sitting on the three couches in the living room, all wearing anxious expressions. Variable questions were running through my mind, like how did they get here so fast? Wasn't I just at the Gray's house? Where's Shane?
"So, how'd it go?" Caitlyn questioned.
"Well, they said my voice was great! But Tess stole my song, so now I have to write a new one hopefully before the next practice"
"Tess stole you're song?" Nate asked.
"No, she just said she practically wrote it! Of course she took it!"
"Well, look at the positive side at least you don't have to sing that awful song!" Jason exclaimed.
"I wrote that other song, genius" I said angrily.
"Thank you" ugh, why must you be so difficult Jason?
"That was sarcasm"
"Really I never knew" he replied.
"Ugh. You're so frustrating!" I complained.
"Aw, the second time that you've complimented me in 3 minutes"
"What are you gonna do then?" Nate questioned.
"I guess I have no choice but to write another song" I answered.
"Cool"
"Um...I need to go home, see you all later" Ella stated suddenly. I will never, ever get that girl.
"Okay, now info. on mystery boy"
"Let's see, he can sing, is a jerk, plays the piano and guitar, and has lon-"Jason was cut off.
"Really?" I asked with this dreamy look in my eyes. Wait I think I might know someone who fits all of that. Hmmmm.....
"Would you look at that, our little friends in love with a person, and she doesn't even know his name. How tragic!" Jason faked being sad, and then burst out laughing.
"Whatever, alright this boy has black hair, brown eyes, and you might know him" Caitlyn said.
"Really?" I repeated.
"Yes, now we should let you get you're thinking cap on and write another song" she stated before grabbing Nate and Jason's hands and pulling them out the door.
"Bye" I said, even though I knew that they were already out the door I figured I could just say it.
I just don't get why Shane didn't come, I mean I don't think I did anything to him and if I did wouldn't he just tell me? And why was Jason so open to giving me all this information about mystery man? It just doesn't make any sense. But that's how my life is all the time, confusing, isn't it?
Well I suppose I'll put those thoughts away for now and start a new song.
*
It's been an hour. One whole hour, and I couldn't think of anything but the chorus! That is such a waste of an hour! Why can't things just come to my mind in under an hour? I know people who can write an entire song in an hour and all I can do is write the refrain. If there were a prize for the slowest songwriter than it would definitely go to me.
Well at least I did write something maybe I should try to fall asleep now.
*
I woke up to the sound of my annoying alarm clock. That thing could cause a whole lot of trouble. I wouldn't be surprised if it was the cause of a riot.
I decided to go to this cute little frozen yogurt shop, which was a block from my house. When I got my i-pod set and ready to listen to My Immortal by Evanescence came on.
------
When it was my turn in line I got mango/raspberry, one of my favourites. After I was finished with my frozen yogurt I noticed my two buddies staring at me. I got up and left the shop, and to no surprise they followed me, I took one turn and the brothers caught up to me then they put one arm each through mine, seems like some people are in a good mood. Too bad they just might ruin mine.
"Hey, what's up bestie?" Nate asked.
"Nothing, I just had a great snack, and was just going to go home when two weirdo's stopped me" I replied.
"Well, that's how we roll" Jason said.
"Where's Caitlyn? I thought you two were inseparable" I directed the question towards Nate.
"She had to do something, so I'm stuck with the bird house freak"
"Hey! I'm not a freak!"
"That's what he thinks" Nate whispered in my ear. I started to laugh and Jason just stared at me, probably thinking I was insane.
"So, may I ask where you two are taking me?" I questioned.
"Nope, it's a surprise" Jason said cheerfully.
"But I hate surprises!" I whined.
"Fine, but you always ruin things which are supposed to be fun" he complained. Shouldn't I be the one complaining I mean I don't even know where their taking me.
"We figured that you could use a little help with your new song, so we're going to help you" Nate replied.
"Oh thanks guys that's so kind of you!" I replied sweetly.
"Aww, there you go complimenting me again!" Jason exclaimed.
"What is it with you and compliments?" I angrily asked.
"He has a huge ego, it's just the way he is" Nate replied.
"Hey, my ego is not huge!"
"Yeah it is!" Nate said back.
"No it's not!"
"Can you two just stop your bickering? It's giving me a headache!" I said.
"Fine"
"Whatever"
"Okay, now if you're going to be helping me with my song then you should know that I already wrote the chorus, I just need the verses" I stated.
"Well you already did the hard part for us" Jason replied.
"I thought the chorus was the easiest if you write that first"
"Well it depends" Nate said.
"I think I'll just agree with the rock star"
"Why thank you" Jason said.
"I wasn't talking to you" I replied.
"Oh, I never knew. But I'll have you know that I'm usually right" he said.
"Sure" Nate just started to howl.
We probably looked like a bunch of crazy people walking on the sidewalk but sometimes this is what we do.
"So, what is the song going to be called?" Nate questioned.
"I couldn't really decide but I figured it could just be called (you can't know this until the end)"
"That's really cool" Nate said. "I know right" I said sarcastically.
"Now that's funny" Jason stated. We just rolled our eyes.
"So is Shane going to be there?"
"Are you obsessed with our brother?" Jason asked.
"NO! I was just curious, I haven't seen him in so long" I answered.
"Oh because a day is so long" Nate exaggerated.
"Do I detect that someone has feelings for our bro?" Jason asked.
"I think someone does have a crush or feelings for our brother" Nate agreed.
"Even if I did have any feelings for Shane Gray I would rather be with that mystery guy who said that he loved me"
Unbeknownst to me the three of us had already reached their house, and still unbeknownst to me Shane was right there and he heard every single word I said.
