Who else loved Camp Rock 2?

I did. :)

Anyway, here is the next chapter. I am so glad that the majority of you love Melody's name.

Quite a number of you also thought that the last chapter was the last chapter of the story. It isn't, there is still more to come. :)

I didn't have a chance to send out spoilers until this morning, I asked on Twitter if anyone wanted them but no one replied. (Other than Nat but she was too late by then haha). I figured that I was updating tonight anyway and you wouldn't mind.

Don't know what else to say so you can read now. :)

This Is Our Song: Chapter 37

After spending the night in hospital, Melody and I were discharged early the next afternoon.

I had taken a quick shower that morning and was longing for one when I got home so I could wash my hair.

"How are we going to do this?" I asked as Shane carefully strapped Melody into the baby capsule we had bought a few weeks beforehand.

"Paparazzi are surrounding the hospital, there's no way that we can get out without being seen. We are going to have to put a blanket over the carrier to block out all the flashes." Shane said.

"Is Nate on his way?" I asked him, getting off the hospital bed slowly.

"Yeah, he should be here any moment now." Shane replied. Nate was picking us up and driving us home, no one was coming with him as we didn't want more than three of us trying to get through the paparazzi. "I'm glad Caitlyn went out and bought some girls clothes, all we had were boys clothes." He chuckled, referring to the pink outfit I had dressed Melody in as he put a blanket on her.

She was asleep and looked so adorable, "I can't believe we had a girl." I admitted, wrapping my arms around his middle. It was simply mind-blowing, we weren't expecting her at all.

"I know." He murmured, wrapping his arms around me too, "I'm so proud of you."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"Enough with the mushy stuff," Nate told us, walking in the hospital room, "Let's go. My car is parked right by the entrance and the paparazzi are there, they'll know that you are leaving. The hospital security are down there already." He informed us.

"Are you ready?" Shane asked me as Nate grabbed the bag that had all my belongings in it.

I nodded, "As ready as I'll ever be."

Grabbing another blanket, Shane carefully put it over the carrier so Melody couldn't be seen.

Nate wrapped an arm around me as Shane picked up the carrier and left the room, making our way to the hospital's entrance.

As we came around the corner, security was there, and we saw through the clear doors a countless amount of paparazzi that were waiting outside for us. The camera flashes were already going off like crazy and I was actually frightened.

Nate wrapped and arm around me protectively and Shane stayed behind us closely with a security guard.

As we walked through the doors, the flashes got worse and questions were being shouted at us from every direction.

We managed to make our way to Nate's car, which wasn't too far away thankfully, and Nate got me into the back seat, I shuffled over and finally looked to see Shane who was right there behind me. He quickly placed the carrier in the backseat with me, strapping it in properly. He and Nate then quickly sat in the front seats and soon enough we were gone.

"That was crazy." I breathed out, pulling the blanket off Melody slightly to see that she was perfectly fine.

"Just a little, I haven't ever seen so many paparazzi like that before." Nate commented.

"Neither have I." Shane agreed.

"What are we going to do with her?" I asked, "We can't hide her, her whole life."

"We'll work it out." Shane promised me.

We got back to the apartment not long later and Nate didn't stick around, claiming we needed some time alone with Melody.

Shane instantly took her into the nursery and I followed closely, he carefully took her out of the carrier so he wouldn't wake her and moved her into the crib.

"She is so beautiful." Shane murmured, covering her cautiously with the blue blanket we had put in there earlier.

I felt myself begin to cry and Shane wrapped his arms around me lovingly, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I just feel so happy and I don't know why I am crying because I really am so happy." I whispered, wiping away my tears with the back of my hand.

"You haven't slept much and your hormones are all over the place. You just gave birth yesterday, its normal." He assured me, "Come on, let her sleep."

He grabbed my hands and ushered me out of the nursery, closing the door behind us quietly.

I wanted more than anything to go back in there, to look at my daughter and hold her in my arms. I couldn't believe that she was actually here! I was twenty years old and had a daughter.

"Can I get you anything?" Shane asked softly.

"No, I'm fine. I guess I should just sleep." I sighed, "Can you find the baby monitors that Andrew got us? I don't want to fall asleep and not wake up if she is hungry."

"Of course, now go to bed. You can wash your hair after you've had rest." He instructed me, knowing I wanted to wash my hair.

"You must be tired too, Shane." I pointed out, noticing the bags under his eyes.

"I am, I'll quickly grab the baby monitors and come sleep for a little with you."

He let go of my hands and I walked slowly into our bedroom. I was still feeling sore and didn't bother changing out of my shirt and sweatpants before getting into bed.

Shane joined me a couple of minutes later and he set down the baby monitor down next to me. I watched him pull his shirt off as well as his jeans and he got into bed with me.

"I love you so much. You are so strong, you are so beautiful and you have no idea how grateful I am." He told me, wrapping his arms around me gently from behind, kissing the back of my head. "We have a little girl, I love you so much for bring her here. I never knew I could feel this way, I never knew that I could love you more than I already do."

"I love you too," I whispered, "I will love you forever."

...

I was awoken a couple of hours later from the cries coming from the baby monitor. I felt Shane stir from beside me and I got out of his arms and quickly got out of bed, making my way to the nursery.

I opened the nursery door to see Melody in her crib, crying and I stood still for just a split second. I was still so amazed that she was here.

I quickly went over to the crib, scooping her up in my arms so carefully and bringing her to my chest.

"Mommy is here." I said softly, smiling down at her as I tried my best to rock her gently to calm her down.

She was still crying when Shane walked in a moment later, "How is she?" He asked letting out a yawn.

"I don't know," I admitted, "She is crying still."

"Maybe she is hungry."

I went over to the rocking chair in the room and sat down carefully, "Can you hold her for a second?" I asked.

Shane nodded, taking Melody off me so I could pull my shirt off half way to feed her.

"You look gorgeous." Shane commented as I fed Melody.

"Why? Because you can see my boob?" I teased, not taking my eyes off Melody. Breast-feeding still felt so weird but I knew it was the best thing for her, I didn't want to be like all the other celebrities who gave their babies formula from a bottle because they didn't want to breast-feed.

I heard him laugh lightly, "Of course not."

When Melody was done feeding, I burped her as my mom had taught me the night before and handed her to Shane.

She gurgled at him and he smiled down at her as I put my shirt back on properly, "How does it feel to be a father at twenty-two?"

"I don't know how to describe it," He replied, "I am almost twenty-three and I am married and have a daughter. Most guys my age wouldn't want this, but this is all I have ever wanted."

I smiled at this, "I'm a little hungry, I'm going to go get something to eat." I told him, standing up.

"Let me." He told me, handing Melody back to me.

I smiled at him thankfully and he left the nursery, leaving our daughter and me all alone. I gazed down at her dark-grey eyes that already seemed so full of life.

"I want to promise you something Melody," I spoke softly to her, "I promise that I will always be there for you no matter what. I promise you that I will be the best mother that I can be. I have no idea what I am doing but I do know I love you baby, I love you more than anything."

...

A week later brought around Savannah's twenty-fifth birthday. I hadn't left the apartment all week and Shane only had done so once to grab some groceries.

Both of our parents had visited and so had Caitlyn, Nate, Savannah and Jason. All were captivated by Melody and loved her so much already, just as Shane and I did.

Savannah understood me not wanting to come out for her birthday dinner; I didn't want to leave Melody at all. My mom assured me that this was normal.

Savannah was a little over nine weeks pregnant, meaning she wasn't showing. She hadn't told anyone else other than us that she was pregnant yet, but planned to tell her family at dinner.

"Shane, you should go. She is your sister." I tried to persuade him.

"I told you, I am staying here with you and Melody." He replied, rocking Melody gently in his arms.

She had been waking us up every few hours for feeding every single night and we were both really tired. Shane got up every single time she cried, even though I was the one who had to feed her. We were managing though, Shane hadn't complained and neither had I. We were both happy and more importantly, Melody already seemed to be a happy baby.

"Fine," I gave in, "But she is your sister, she is pregnant and most likely a little moody." I pointed out.

"Sav is always moody." Shane retorted with a smirk.

"I want to get a photo." I told him, "Melody looks so cute."

"And I don't?" He laughed.

"You always look cute."

"We already have like a hundred pictures, you are going to blind her." He teased.

"You can never have too many photos."

"You won't be saying that when the paparazzi are wanting photos." Shane sighed after I snapped a few photos.

I sighed too, setting the camera down, "I will do everything I can to protect her, I guess we are going to have to give photos of her to a magazine or something so the media backs off just a little."

"We'd have to sell photos, magazines pay for that kind of thing." Shane told me, resulting in me giving him a weird look, "We'd give the money to charity of course." He chuckled at my expression.

"Not for a while though, I don't want everyone seeing her just yet."

Shane nodded, "I'm going to go set her down for a nap, did you want to just order in for dinner?"

"Yeah, I know I should probably start watching what I eat to lose weight but I can't be bothered cooking anything tonight."

Shane kissed me on the cheek, "It's a week after the birth of our daughter and you have some baby weight. It's normal."

I let out a small smile, "Thanks Rock Star."

He let out a huge smile at this.

I think I could only count on one hand the amount of times I had called him that.

...

I still hadn't left the apartment by the time Melody was three weeks old and Shane said I needed to. I didn't want to leave her still so we decided to go stay with my parents for a few days.

Shane had loaded up his Hummer with everything we would need and my parents thankfully had bought a crib and set it up in my room.

Putting a pacifier in Melody's mouth, Shane placed a blanket over her (as she was in her carrier) and we made our way down to the garage, strapping her in the backseat. Only then we took the blanket off her as Shane's car windows were tinted.

I sat up front with Shane but couldn't stop looking around the whole drive to make sure Melody was okay.

"You fed her just before we left and changed her diaper. She is fine, don't stress." Shane tried to calm me.

The world now knew that we had a daughter named Melody Jade Gray, we had released a statement on our websites and now many desperately wanted photos.

When we got to my parent's house, Shane made sure to put a blanket back over Melody's carrier in case photographers were lurking. We let ourselves in the front door and my mom greeted us.

"Give me my granddaughter! I haven't seen her in a week!" She instructed us.

Shane chuckled and got Melody out of the carrier, handing her over to my mom. I went and sat down on the couch, exhausted from the trip and because I hadn't had a whole lot of sleep the night before.

"Where's dad?"

"At the store," My mom replied as Shane went to get the rest of our belongings out of his car, "He will be back soon."

I watched as my mom held my daughter, rocking her gently and cooing to her softly.

"You don't think I am too young to be a mother?" I asked a moment later as Shane took our things upstairs.

"Not at all, I was only a few years older than you when I had you."

"Did you feel the same as me? Not having any idea on what you are doing?" I confessed.

"All first time mothers do. That's why we have mothers to help us." She replied, with a smile sitting down next to me.

"I am just so tired and I know Shane is too. I have gotten used to breastfeeding but it is getting too hard at night, I am thinking of using a breast pump so we can just feed Melody through a bottle at night instead."

"It's a smart idea, that way you and Shane can take it in turns at night."

"Can you watch her for just a minute? I want to go upstairs to see Shane for just a moment."

My mom nodded at me and happily returned her gaze to Melody.

I got up and made my way upstairs to my bedroom where Shane was putting our belongings away. I watched him from the doorway; it took him a moment to notice me there.

"Hey Mitch." He grinned at me.

"Hey." I breathed out stepping in my room and closing the door behind me.

"Are you tired?"

I simply nodded feeling tears brim against my eyes.

"What's wrong?" He questioned me, coming over and wrapping his arms around me.

"I just love you a lot." I admitted, "I know things are exhausting right now and I have been acting a little crazy, but I know things will be better. Things will be better because I have you."

Shane kissed the top of my head, "I will always be here with you, I love you more than I have so in the past. Don't think that I love you any less because we have a daughter now."

I looked up at him and he kissed me through my tears.

I couldn't live without him; I needed him in my life.

I loved him so much.

I promise to send out spoilers for the next chapter. :)

Thoughts on this one?

I just put up a new one-shot the other day in honour of 9/11. I'd really appreciate it if you would all go check it out. :D
