(Original a/n) A/N: I OWN NOTHING SO YOU CANNOT REPORT ME!! btw if you're wondering where Summer Love and My Parent's Secret is, someone reported it and it got deleted!!

A/N: Oh wow. This totally reminded me how pissed/devastated I was when I found out that Summer Love got reported. Not cool. Sooo not cool. And to the bitch who reported it: screw you! Anyways, I hated this chapter. Like, a lot. So sorry for its utter crappiness that clearly nobody can fix—unless they want to mess up my plot.


"Shane!" Heart said, snapping her fingers in front of him. Shane momentarily zoned out. He was in deep thought, not knowing what to do. He wanted to tell Mitchie, but he knows that he broke every inch of her heart. She wouldn't bear to accept the fact that the one guy who hurt her the most is the father of her child.

Shane started driving away, towards their house. "Shane, you have to tell her!" Heart yelled. Shane didn't respond. He just kept on driving and driving, not having enough courage to open his mouth. Heart folded her arms disappointedly. "I was hoping you weren't those types of guys who leave the girl the loves when they find out that they got her pregnant." It would be a lie of Shane said that Heart's statement didn't hurt him.

I am not that kind of guy…I'm just scared to tell her. Shane thought. He couldn't even say that aloud.

Once they got home, Heart slammed the car door and walked angrily into her room. She felt ashamed that Shane Gray was her cousin, ashamed that he would do this to Mitchie. Jason heard her stomping upstairs and slamming her room door. He looked at Shane for the answer, but Shane looked too stressed out to even talk.

"What happened?" Jason asked. Like Jason expected, Shane ignored him. He just walked to his room and actually started his homework.

Heart lied on her bed, trying not to be angry, but as usual she couldn't. She just had to do something about it. This was a child; a human being sent from God that Mitchie and Shane was dealing with. They couldn't possibly just brush it off! …Could they?

By 5:00 PM, Heart walked out of the house without telling anyone. The fact that she had too many things running around her mind made her forget to get Shane or Jason's permission, or at least Nate's knowledge. Though, Jason immediately realized that the female part of his household was missing. Leaving without consent was definitely not very Heart-like. If Shane or Nate did that, Jason wouldn't care. Since it was Heart though, he instantly called her cell phone.

"Hello?" Heart asked, annoyed already. She was at a coffee shop, drinking hot chocolate and eating a cookie. Pathetic, yes, but she had nothing else better to do.

"Where are you?! Why didn't you tell me that you were going out?!" Jason yelled. Heart laughed a little, amused with Jason's growing overprotection over her. "It's not funny!"

"Sorry. But you don't care if Shane or Nate does it. How come you do when I go out without permission?"

"Because they're older, and they're guys."

"That is sexist!"

"No it's not! It's just…you know I'm just gonna tell Shane to get you right now!" and with that, Jason hung up. Heart groaned and rested her head on the table.

Then Mitchie walked into the coffee shop. "Mitchie?" Heart said.

Mitchie turned towards her. "Oh, hey kid," she said.

"What are you doing here?"

"I was about to ask you the same question. Anyways I'm singing here tonight."

"Singing?"

"Are you deaf or something? Yes, I said singing." Heart rolled her eyes and Mitchie sighed. "Sorry." Mitchie suddenly clutched her stomach and ran to the bathroom as fast as she could. Heart sat in her seat as she waited for Shane to pick her up.

Minutes later, it was all dark and Mitchie was poised and standing on the stage. She looked professional, confident, ready—but that wasn't what Heart was thinking. Behind that dark, emo, careless façade, Heart was willing to admit that Mitchie was probably the most beautiful girl she has ever seen.

Then Shane came in, as if fate planned it all along. Once he saw Mitchie, though, he immediately forgot that he was there to pick Heart up.

"So this song is about…my past." Mitchie started. "It was about a person I knew…hope you all like it." She explained vaguely

Then she started singing.

Did you forget
That I was even alive
Did you forget
Everything we ever had
Did you forget
Did you forget About me

Mitchie looked like she was near tears.

Did you regret (did you regret)
Ever standing by my side
Did you forget (did you forget)
What we were feeling inside
Now I'm left
To forget
About us
But somewhere we went wrong
We were once so strong
Our love is like a song
You can't forget it

Shane looked at Mitchie, absolutely regretting about breaking up with her.

So now I guess
This is where we have to stand
Did you regret Ever holding my hand
Never again Please don't forget
Don't forget

Now Mitchie was shedding tears, little by little.

We had it all
We were just about to fall
Even more in love
Than we were before
I won't forget I won't forget
About us
But somewhere we went wrong
We were once so strong
Our love is like a song
You can't forget it

Mitchie started strumming her guitar and she shut her eyes tightly while singing her heart out and shedding tears at the same time.

Somewhere we went wrong
We were once so strong
Our love is like a song
You can't forget it at all

And at last
All the pictures have been burned
And all the past
Is just a lesson that we've learned
I won't forget Please don't forget us
Somewhere we went wrong
Our love is like a song
But you won't sing along
You've forgotten about us
Don't forget

The audience clapped and whistled. Even Heart clapped despite Mitchie's crying. Mitchie smiled a little and thanked them. She got off the stage and saw Shane. Mitchie instantly wiped her tears off with her sleeve. Without thinking, Shane hugged her and Mitchie hugged him back out of instinct. She cried in his chest for a while. Mitchie then pushed away, realizing whom she was hugging.

"Mitchie…" Shane started.

"No! I will not fall for you over again!" Mitchie said and ran out of the coffee shop. She left Shane there speechless.

Heart walked up to her cousin. "You okay?" she asked.

"No." Shane responded. He sighed and the two walked to his car and drove back home.
