Hey guys! So here is Chapter 25. I'm not really sure how many Chapters more of this story, maybe around 6 or so. Anyway, enough rambling, hope you'll enjoy the chapter! :)

Chapter 25:

Upon hearing those words, Shane just smiled like a contented old man. He was saturated with happiness. His arms snaked around Mitchie's waist and pulled her closer to him. Mitchie sighed, and rested her head on the crook of Shane's shoulders.

Using his free hand, Shane gently brushed away the tears streaked on Mitchie's face. Mitchie turned her head to face him, her chocolate brown eyes locking with his black orbs. The couple leaned in. Inch by inch, their lips got closer.

Finally, they met in a sweet and tender loving kiss. It only lasted for a couple of seconds, seeing they were in public. But to both Shane and Mitchie, it was still the most romantic and the best kiss for them; just like the first time.

They pulled apart, both grinning like cherish cats. Shane dug into his pockets and fished out Mitchie's engagement ring. It glistened in the sunlight. "I believe, this is yours." He murmured into her ear. Mitchie beamed shyly, starring at the ring. She knew it was pointless wear the ring around her neck, now that their secret was out in the open.

As if having read Mitchie's thoughts, Shane took her hand in his and slipped the ring onto her finger. "Thank you." She whispered, admiring the ring.

The couple just sat there on the bench, enjoying each other's silent company, having finished their food. Both of them were lost in their own thoughts. After a little while, Shane broke the comfortable silence.

"Just to double check Mitch, does that mean we're back together?" His face was a mixture of concern and worry. Mitchie was taken aback by the question and she bit her lip to hold back a giggle. "Yes you prat." She answered, slapping him lightly on the arm Shane visibly relaxed.

Mitchie laughed. "You hang around Jason too much." That got Shane chuckling as he rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. Jason always couldn't see the obvious thing.

After the laughter ceased, the couple started to talk about the matter at hand.

Mitchie: What now? I mean about Emily Osment and our engagement...

Shane: I have no idea Mitchie... (Lowers his head and shakes it.)

Mitchie: (Pats him on the shoulder) Let's review our choices then.

Shane: Hmm. Okay, lets see, we could: 1) Spill out everything to the press, the truth I mean. Or 2) Hide everything; but the press would come after us everyday. (Shrugs)

Mitchie: I guess it's obvious what we have to do then...

Shane: (Head jolts up) Are you sure love? I mean your mid year IS around the corner... And I don't think you can spare any time in between school and self-studying. Weekends are out, we have performance, and then we will be leaving. It has to be this week; but will teachers let you go?

Mitchie: Shane, I am sure of this. I want no more than the world to know that you're off the market. (Smirks) And that 'Smitchie' will stay.

Shane: You're so evil... But I love you for that, my sweet, caring, gorgeous fiancée. (Pecks her on the lips)

Mitchie: Flattery will get you no where Grey.

Shane: Well at least I tried (Shrugs)

Mitchie: (Slaps him on the arm playfully)

Shane: Ow! (Mock hurt)

Mitchie: Anyways, to answer your question...

Mitchie: (Thinks for a moment and snaps her fingers.) How about Wednesday? It is Alfea's founding day and we have a day off... Well the teachers want us to do self-study, but I think Miss Fleming should allow me.

Shane: Will she allow the 3 of you to go? After all, there ARE rumors about Nate, Jason, Caitlyn and Ella too.

Mitchie: She should allow...

Shane: Okay, then it is settled. I'll arrange a meeting with The Celebrity Gossip Show for Wednesday. Though I have to admit the name is rather lame...

Mitchie: Shane Grey! Focus!

Shane: We will come pick you guys up at around 11 ish or so, grab some lunch, then head off to the interview at 1.

Mitchie: Fine with me.

The couple chatted random stuff for a bit, before Shane pulled out his guitar from the guitar case. "Shane what are you—"Shane cut her off by placing a finger on her lips. "Just listen love."

He begun to play those oh so familiar chords that Mitchie first heard at Camp Rock.

Everytime I think I'm closer to the heart
Of what it means to know just who I am
I think I've finally found a better place to start
But no one ever seems to understand
I need to try to get to where you are
Could it be, you're not that far

You're the voice I hear inside my head,
the reason that I'm singing
I need to find you
I gotta find you
You're the missing piece I need,
the song inside of me
I need to find you
I gotta find you
Oh yeah
Yeah, yeah

Been feeling lost,
can't find the words to say
Spending all my time
stuck in yesterday
Where you are
Is where I want to be
Oh next to you...
And you next to me
Oh I need to find you...
Yeah

You're the voice I hear inside my head,
the reason that I'm singing
I need to find you (I need to find you)
I gotta find you (yeah)
You're the missing piece I need,
the song inside of me
I need to find you
I gotta find you (I gotta find you)

(I cut short the song; Gotta Find You, by Joe Jonas)

Mitchie was nearly on the verge of crying when Shane was done with the song. It brought back loads of precious memories. "Mitch, you alright?" Shane asked with concern. Mitchie wiped her tears away. "I'm fine Shane, just reliving some memories."

"Thank you for the song Shane." She added. Shane nodded, stood up and held out his hand. "It is time we head back Mitchie." Mitchie placed her hand in his and the couple made their way to Jason's car.

They reached Alfea grounds in no time. Mitchie sighed and looked at her once again fiancé. "Take care love; I'll see you this Saturday for the concert?" Shane murmured, giving her a tight hug as they walked to the school gates.

"Of course Shane, bye and take care too." She replied, pecking him on the lips softly.

With a final wave, Mitchie went though the gate, smiling like crazy.

The pop star got back into the car, also extremely pleased, contented and happy.

I'm done with this Chapter. So, what's going to happen during the interview? Will Lindsay try anymore tricks? What about Smitchie, Naitlyn and Jella? Stay tuned to the next chapter. Please do review! I'll appreciate them!

It is goodbye, for now, till the next Chapter!

P.S: I know the name for the interview show is very lame too, but it was from 'A Sort Of Cinderella Story' and I though I'll follow. (Shrugs)
