Together at 18

Chapter 18: Recording Barefoot Cinderella

Shane's Point of View

I woke up and smiled feeling Mitchie's warm body wrapped in my arms. Last night was amazing and I would definitely never forget it. I turn my head towards the clock to see that it was only 6:30 am and we still had a few hours until we had to get up and head to Jersey. Honestly I could stay here all day and just sleep with my love. I smile placing a piece of her hair behind her ear. I loved watching her sleep with a slight smile upon her face. I would never get tired of this and I cannot wait until I get back and in the month of September every day I would be falling asleep and waking up to her smiling face. Then since we are still together we will be going across Europe together. I was really excited about that. Also after everything that we went through I was even more excited for my plan for our six months. Not that I ever doubted it but our love is stronger and it just helped me confirm that the plan was meant to be.

I sigh trying to fall asleep again with no luck. I slowly get out of the covers and tuck the blankets tight around her. I slip on a t-shirt and walk onto the balcony that the room came with. I smile taking a deep breath of the warm summer air. It was so peaceful at 6:45. You could hear the slight chirp of birds from central park. The hum of cars driving down the road, rush hour not visible as it is Saturday, it was so beautiful. I jumped but settled back into the warmth of the arms that just wrapped around my body, the arms of my love.

"Sorry" She whispered into my neck.

"Its okay" I whispered just loudly enough so she could hear me

"What are you doing up" She whispered again me feeling her warm breath upon my neck

"I couldn't sleep any longer, and it's just so beautiful at this time"

"It really is" She agreed and I turned around wrapping my arms around her taking in her scent. "I love you"

"I love you too" She said kissing me softly as I kiss her back holding her close. She pulls away smiling at me. "It really is beautiful out here" She said smiling

"Yeah it's also a nice time to think. Quiet, peace everything calming I love moments like these"

"Yeah I love them too. What were you thinking about?" She asked

"Me, you, us and yeah" I say feeling the heat rush to my face slowly and she giggles kissing my cheek.

"I always think about things like that"

"I also think about how this is what you were meant to do, perform, dance or sing just perform. I believe in god as do you and there is a reason for everything. Maybe the reason we were brought together was so you could get your dream of singing, and I could get mine of love and fulfilment."

She smiles "I like that theory, also I got love and the fulfilment too; I still don't know what made you talk to me that one day though"

"Honestly love I don't either. Something about you, maybe the smile you had on your face, your sad brown eyes, I just felt like I needed too. And I wrote my number because I don't know really. It seemed like you could use someone to talk to, and yeah"

"Well I will forever thank you for that" She said kissing me quick, each other still wrapped in the other's arms on the balcony.

"I will forever thank myself for meeting you and finding you, it was the best thing I ever done, for both of us I believe"

"I definitely agree with that" She smiled

"Love"

"Yeah"

"There was one more thing on my mind"

"What is it?" She asked

"Well every year after my birthday I go to church to count my blessings and everything and I was hoping since you would still be with me Sunday morning that maybe you would come" He asked

"I'd love too but wouldn't your family want too, I mean if it's a tradition"

"They don't come with me" He said

"Oh"

"I don't really want them too, it's something I like to do alone, but you are really important and I would love for you to come with me, since a lot of things I want to be thankful for involves you and you are the love of my life"

"Wow Shane I would be honoured too" She said and I wrapped her tighter in my arms hugging her kissing her neck once.

"We should back to bed babe, we have a long day?"

"Are you performing tonight" I asked and she shook her head

"No but I will be back stage waiting for you, so no worries" She said smiling huge

"Okay, and yeah we should" I said picking her up and she giggles wrapping her legs around my waist. I realized she was in booty shorts and my hands resting on her bum keeping her up as she giggled.

"Feely are we"

"Shut it" I said giggling kissing her walking her back into the room as I use my leg and kick the door closed, the curtains still shut upon them and walking to the bed laying her down as I crawl on top of her kissing her as she kisses me back.

We make out for a while pretty heated. I left a few marks upon her neck and she left at least one around my collarbone. Slight moans could've been heard but we knew we couldn't make love again. First of all we didn't have the time for the much needed sleep after and we used the only other set of sheets we were provided. I glanced at the clock seeing it was 8 when we were again crawled in bed. I set my phone alarm to about 10:00 so we would get up in time, so we could make it to Jersey, in time for at least the sound check. Giving Mitchie another quick kiss we curled up together closing our eyes and letting each other drift off into a peaceful sleep.

Mitchie's Point of View

It is now Sunday afternoon around 3:00. Ally and I just got onto the plane heading to Santa Barbara. I was going to drop Ally off at the house say goodbye then take the SUV back to LA where I was needed on Wednesday, to meet my band and start recording, if I was comfortable with the band that was interviewed and put together for my music. I trusted Savannah though so I was sure I would be.

The rest of Saturday was good. Bruce had left the blacked-out car and Shane drove it to Jersey, where we met up with the rest of them as they did their sound check. The concert that night was really good and I did end up signing one song, what we came here for, with them in the encore, it was a surprise for the fans and it was nice although I almost didn't want to, but for Shane I really would've done anything. That night we spent in the hotel as everyone else did. We shared a room and I loved sleeping in his warm arms again. That night we were both tired, and we didn't need to make love again, we would see each other soon enough and we could feel the love we shared by just being beside each other.

This morning we both woke up early and went to the closest Christian church. I was really honoured that he wanted me to come to his ritual after his birthday. It meant so much to me and him as well. I was happy I was with him and I was also thankful for him as much as he was for me, so it was fitting that I accompanied him.

After that we went out to a café for a lunch date. We had been spotted by the pap and a few pictures were taken but we held hands and acted just like we would any other day, as a normal couple. We ignored the pap because honestly we were just happy that we could be together for even those couple of hours.

We went back to the hotel and Ally and Nate joined us as we made our way to the airport. She and Nate actually spent the night together last night. There was sleeping and apparently kissing involved. They both seemed happy and would blush if either of us mentioned it so we kept the teasing to a minimum.

Ally and I were now on the plane heading back to Santa Barbara on the 5 hour flight. It was a tearful goodbye for both of us really. We both had tears and we hugged our good byes. I kissed Shane and hugged him tightly knowing photos were taken. Ally had on sunglasses as did Nate as they shared a very quick kiss but a long hug. We both hung on to our boys until we were boarding and with one final kiss I said bye and Ally hugged Nate once more again shielding her face as we both made our way onto the flight. I was still upset but we would be talking again and in 4 weeks he was coming home, I really couldn't wait until then.

We would be staying in LA again doing some prep for our Europe leg of the tour and I would still be recording, especially since they wanted the CD out so soon. I would mostly be working. The only thing really for the tour would be my set with the band as I already knew the stage and then Bruce was going to figure out the bus for them, after we made sure they were right for my music and that I was okay and got along with them, because that was really important for this industry to get along with who you performed with.

I sighed looking at Ally as we were flying and I was now feeling tired again. I smiled at her slipping my ear buds into my ears listening to my music as I closed the window shield lay my head on my sweater that I leant against the wall of the plane and closed my eyes letting the hum of the plane help me fall asleep.

We arrived in Santa Barbara at 6 our time, but it would be 9 back in New Jersey and the boys would be on their way to the east coast for their next concert tomorrow. I would get back to la around 9:30 our time and I would have to call Shane, hopefully he would be awake and I wouldn't wake him up, I would feel really bad.

After getting our duffel bags and getting into the car at park n fly I drove Ally to the house. I hugged her goodbye and promised I would text her when I got back to LA so she knew I was safe, I got back into the car, turned on my tunes and headed onto the interstate heading back to LA.

I got there and walked into the house seeing some of the staff and saying hello as I walked up the stairs and into my room. I texted Ally and she text back saying goodnight as she was going to sleep since she had school tomorrow. I smiled saying I would talk to her later and then I got changed into pyjamas. I decided I would shower tomorrow. I sat on my bed but didn't feel like sleeping there. I made my way to Shane's room, closed his doors and crawled into his bed as I was surrounded by the darkness and comfort of his room. I grabbed my phone and called him, hoping he was awake as it was 9:36 and 12:36 about their time.

"Hey love" I heard his voice answer

"Hi love, I am home I knew you would want to hear that" I smile

"Oh okay well I am glad love, how was the flight and your drive"

"Yeah it was good I slept a lot. The drive felt long alone but I made it home. I was lonely a little so I am curled up in your bed getting ready to sleep again."

"I would love to be in my bed with you, but only 4 more weeks"

"Yeah soon enough I guess" I said giggling, "I am going to go to bed though my love I will talk to you later, call me tomorrow" I asked

"Yeah definitely I am going to bed too. We are just about in our hotel. I love you and will call you tomorrow, sleep well babe"

"You two babe, dream about me"

"I always do" he said as I giggled

"Same here" I said "Night boo"

"Night Mitchie moo" He said and I hung up. I placed my phone on the night side table curling up more into his bed taking in what was left of his sent lingering on the pillow closing my eyes and drifting into a very comfortable sleep.

It was now near then end of August there was 3 days left so that made it the 27th of August. It made me smile especially since it was our 4 months anniversary. I had called Shane at 6 this morning excited. He asked why I was up. I was up because I was again recording today. I was getting back to waking up around 5:30 every morning or a little later and get ready to go to the studio. I was having so much fun and we are working on my songs insanely fast and I have almost my whole CD written, we decided there was one more song I wanted to record with Shane and the guys would do the music, we were going to release What we came here for on my CD I was excited about that.

I was also excited because I would be seeing him in 7 days. I was going on tour and arriving on the 4th of September. We were then returning back to LA on the 11th so I would be with them for 7 days performing the last concert. You have no idea how excited I was. There was also tons of excitement buzzing around the house and all us. I am currently on a site because of that. I am on the Teen choice awards site voting for my boyfriend and his band. Shane got nominated for best male performance on a stage he was also against Nate in that category. This was the second e-mail I was using to vote so I voted Shane 2 times now if America would agree with me, well the teens of America anyway. The band was nominated for best summer concert, hands down they should win. They were also nominated for best male group and group of the year. I was voting for them for all. They were dubbed as one nominated for hottest guy. Honestly he knew I thought he was hot damn he was full on sexy, but I voted for a friend of mine, Rob Pattinson for that, I mean he was hot and Shane has won before. The best part this year though was I would be walking down the red carpet event with him, my first ever and his first with me. I was actually really excited about that and I think he was too. Sure we were shown on dates out and about and in tabloids but this was actually a celebrity event and I would be there with my boyfriend and I was just excited that they would finally and officially see we were real. I mean we always were and it's been that way for so long just people never saw him at celebrity events with him, because we never went but now, now they will see. I am so excited.

Anyways I just finished voting and I am finishing my hair and make-up and getting to the studio. I don't put a lot on just enough so I look awake and very comfortable clothes, recording wasn't a fancy ordeal. The best part was that my band was amazing. Savannah found the perfect people. I h ad 2 girls that were back-up vocals and we didn't use them lots but enough. They were amazing and we were already great friends after a week in a half. The guys for the keyboard, the guitar, bass, and drums were all amazing. They were very good at what they did and could work with my music easily. There wasn't much piano but the keyboard player handled that too as he was a master at that instrument. They were all in their 20's, all very nice and we got along great. We had so much fun recording and goofing around I could've not asked for a better band and group of people to work with. So far they were also all scheduled for the tour which made it that much more appealing although it was appealing just being able to be with Shane, but now just more and a lot of other guys to prank, so much fun.

I have told Shane all about them and he is excited to meet them as I am excited to introduce them. They will get along great and it will be amazing being on tour with all my closest friends, well most of them. Caitlyn was still coming, but for work now and on a different bus. Ally was invited but school was preventing that. Oh right well her and Nate are practically a couple. He hasn't asked her but they talk and text all the time. We really want him to ask her when they get back. We have been telling him to and asking for details but nothing yet. Hopefully soon he will finally do it. Ally has been spilling details over the phone every day and email and text since we aren't next door to each other's room anymore. However we have thought about getting her to Europe around early December for the two weeks before Christmas the last two weeks of the tour. Finally talking about the last two weeks sounds amazing. It has been long but so worth it and I was totally ready to get on with Europe.

I know I had left the tour with personal issues but I have figured them out. I need to be with Shane as well and just everything had been going so well. I am truly happy I love what I am doing and I think he was right… I was meant to be performing in any way. I always have been performing but not in singing. I loved singing it was always a passion and when I was younger I wanted to be a singer that quickly changed. I choose dance at school it was easier and more inspirational too me then music at that point. Anger and frustration and everything came easily in movement to me until I meant Shane. I was performing in all the ways I was meant too and now I am doing a bit of both and I have never felt more sure of what I want to be doing for the rest of my life. Dancing, Singing or both I wanted to perform and I was happily doing that with Shane by my side. Nothing could be better for me, then now and I was forever grateful for god choosing this path for me, things do happen for a reason and this was how he showed me this was meant for me.

I just walked into the studio totally comfy in my Hollister sweats and my t-shirt with my zip-up and Starbucks in my left hand.

"Hey guys" I said seeing my band

"Starbucks, where's ours" The drummer Jared said

"Oh you wanted some, my bad" I said gasping taking a sip "Oh it's so good" I said smiling and they all groan and I laugh

"That's what Shane wants to hear" The guitar player Adam said and I smacked him

"Shut up" I said and he rubbed his arms

"Will do" He said and we all just laughed. We always joked around like this it was fun. I was really excited for tour it would be a laughing blast.

"Alright so are we doing Barefoot Cinderella today, I thought you guys were off today? I thought I was dropping the voice tracks today and we were doing the music in two days?"

"Don't know" Jared shrugged "Savannah called saying we needed to rush it a little so we are doing a bit of both today to have it finished tomorrow"

"Tomorrow" I asked

"Apparently"

"Alright, she'll be here soon I will have to ask her when she arrives." I said and they nodded. I sat down on the couch beside the girls chatting with them.

I was slightly confused though. Why would we have to have it finished fast by tomorrow? Oh well Savannah had he reasons. I also had had tracks for the song so they just have to lay it out and just mash it together getting the music form my track onto their instruments and back together it would take a while but it wasn't impossible in 2 days, I guess we had work to do.

"Good morning everyone" Savannah said coming in

"Hey" I said standing up "So I heard what we are doing, what's up?" I asked

"Well I have some pretty big news and I would love it to involve this song, it doesn't have to really do with the recording but we need to get this track done and make sure the band knows their parts and it will work together" She said

"What is your big news Savannah?"

"I will tell you by the end of the day. No matter what if the song is working or not I will tell you"

"Alright, still confused and we will do our best, so music or voice first"

"Definitely music, so we can play it well you sing and get it working, we have your track, so lets' break the pieces, you know what you used let's get to work"

"Sounds good, okay so could you guys get on your instruments and I will rip apart the track into your parts?" I asked as the band nodded as I headed to the main computer near the sound boards as they got into the booth on the instruments.

A good thing about this was I knew how to use a computer to create tracks and take them apart therefore I would be able to help with the recording. The best part was most of my songs had tracks or partial tracks we could use so recording was slightly easy then creating all new tracks for every song.

First I pulled out the drummer part for Jared. I told him how the beats played and we played it for him. I went into the room with him and they played it as I listened to him play inside the booth mouthing the words to it trying to time it. I then sang into the microphone with just the drums, it was weird but after a few times he got it right and I got the timing right without the other instruments.

"Good job" I said hugging him nodding as he hugged

"You two" he said smiling

The other guys were listening to the beat of the drum, the drums usually control the beat so it was helping they were working on the time off the drums beats. I finally got Adam set as we did the same thing then with Alex the bass player and finally with Matt the keyboard player. We listened to all of them and I smiled as they sound good. We did the time lay over and listened to all of it together. It was amazing the sounds sounding almost exactly like my track.

A few hours later now into early afternoon they had replayed it all together and we went over some of the timing and I was currently listening to the track which was really good, it was the track we were using for the recording. It was now my turn to lay down some voice tracks. I already had with the single instruments, now I had to with no music not rushing it taking my time, before we added it into the music, timing was hard, this was the hardest part of recording.

It was hard without my music so the time cues and it was getting frustrating. Finally I got it. The hard part now was stopping the one note too early or too late and I was getting angry at myself for screwing up.

"Mitchie take a 5 minute break then come back, there is no problem with that" Savannah said

"Okay" I said taking off my headphones and leaving the sound booth. I grabbed a bottle of water and went to the sound boards. I played the music with my voice over laid trying to figure out what to do. I got to the part and listened. I was about 2 second to late starting it. I mouthed the words playing it again and it sounded right.

"I want to do it now" I said getting up and going into the sound booth

"Mitchie, it is okay to slow down"

"No I got it please" I said noticing it was 5:30 and lots of people were getting tired and hungry but I wanted to finish at least the voice tracks.

"Alright" She said turning on the system and I put the headphones on my head and counted myself in singing. I got to the part and sang it. She gave me a thumb's up and I smiled continuing the song like I would have normally. I think I finally got the timing without the music. I finished and walked out smiling

"It worked" She said smiling

"Amazing I want to hear it with an over lay" I said hooking it up

"Alright, then pack up I'll be right back" She said and I nodded. I said goodbye to the band as we were pretty much done for the day. I played it and it sounded good. We had a few little tweaks to do but that would happen when the band played and I sang at the same time. The over lay was always a rough idea that we would follow. I was so glad she found me a band.

After listening to it I turned off the sound board and systems and packed up my stuff when Savannah came in "So Mitchie, I told the band the great news and they are all for it. I kind of wanted to tell you alone, cause yeah" She said and I laughed

"Oh right, I almost forgot what is it?" I said excited

"Well I got a call two days ago, and this song would be perfect for it. The teen choice awards are coming up in a few weeks I am sure you are aware of?"

"Of course, I am dating Shane" I said

"Well this was a request if you would perform there?" She said and I screamed

"Are you kidding?"

"Not at all, it will be a surprise performance for the fans. The presenter will know as will most of the people working it and you can tell Shane, it would be hard to sneak away from him when it's almost like your debut as a couple" She said and I giggled

"Yeah in a celebrity environment it is" I said smiling "I would love too, and why barefoot Cinderella? I mean I love the song just I don't know if it's my best"

"Mitchie you are perfecting every song you can get your hands on. You don't stop until its perfected this is your 4th song and they are all amazing. Also the meaning to this song, all girls love feeling like that to someone special so I think it's perfect for the awards. Also we were hoping this might be your first single, if it's televised first it will be good when it's released"

"Yeah I guess it is" I smiled "Thanks Savannah that is amazing, did they say why me?"

"Well apparently one of the planners took her daughters to the concert here in LA and heard you and suggested you so they've been watching the performances over that were on tape and you are in" She said

"That's amazing I am so excited"

"Yeah but the studio is closing for the night so we should probably go, we are back here at 8 tomorrow, but we will be out later" She said and I nodded

"Sounds good I will see you then" I said and she nodded

"Goodnight Mitchie"

"Night Savannah, have a good one" I said and she nodded

OH MY GOD. I practically screamed inside my head dancing to my car. That was beyond exciting I cannot wait to tell Shane. I got into the car and headed home. I got into the house which was still quiet as it usually was. I walked upstairs to see my freshly clean laundry lying on my bed. I plugged in my iPod and danced around my room putting it away making the house seem a little more alive. I was still bubbling form excitement. When I got my clothes put away I sat on my bed with my song book. I have been writing more and working on a song or two more for the album. I have been giving a lot of inspiration.

I smile looking around the room which I made a bit more like a home again since I was in here for a while. I asked one of the workers to bring some food up so they brought me a sandwich, salad and a bowl of my favourite fruit salad. It was full of cantaloupe and I loved it with milk so they brought me a huge glass. I would definitely have to eat after I call Shane as my stomach growled. I was about to call Shane when my eyes caught the sight of the time. Damn it, it was almost 9 where they were so it would be a while until I could call them. They had 5 more shows along the coast then they would go up and do there last week in Canada which was exciting for me as well. I was performing at the one in Vancouver that last stop. However he was joking that the Canadian shows might just give me the push I needed to perform, so I never know anymore.

I got off my bed and sat at my desk eating my food. I was really hungry because I ate every last bite and it was very good. I went on my computer and checked my e-mails. I had a few from Ally and there was one where she sent some of the pictures form us in New York to us. There were a lot of the ones we took with Rob and Kristen. We all looked ridiculous but all very good. I saved them and quickly sent her an e-mail back.

I went onto my twitter reading new things and about stars I was following as well as my friends. Parker had tweeted me saying he was happy for me about the recording and he would for sure be watching for my CD. I tweeted back a thank you. I had told him about the recording earlier and he seemed excited. I was about to close it when I realized a tweet that mentioned me at the top. I smiled seeing it was form Shane.

DancingMusicallyInclinedM Miss you… 7 days Mitchie Moo... love you

I laughed reading it. I loved how everyone following him would see that, it was hilarious. I actually had a lot of followers since I started dating him. I didn't really care but it was weird. I smiled and tweeted him back

ShaneGray Miss you too… and 7 if you are lucky. Love you too Boo.

I laughed knowing he wouldn't live the Boo down easily. He always called me Mitchie moo so I was getting him back. I smiled closing my computer and went to my bed. I smiled turning on some music and sat on my bed writing. It was getting darker as I heard rain start to pitter-patter against my window. I smiled turning my bed side light on. I loved the feeling of a darker room with a small light when it was raining just felt relaxing in a sort of way.

I had a few lines down that were just thoughts but I smiled thinking about Shane. He really did make me crazier, I guess this would be a new song. I smiled thinking along the lines of being crazy in love and what he does to me and I smiled writing a few lines. I was excited for this, another new song. I had a month or so to finalize my track list. Maybe just this last one and I would be happy with it.

I sat there for a while writing some lyrics playing a tune in my head. I would ask my band for help with this one though. I smiled closing my book and placing it in my night dresser where I always kept it. I had 2 note books in there now, all full of random words and scratches and then I had a binder with my songs typed up and printed off into it. I closed the drawer and got my phone. I saw it was almost 8:30 so closing in on 11:30 there I smiled and brought up his number. I pressed send and let it ring hoping he would pick it up.

I pathetically counted the rings and it was on the second last ring when he answered.

"Hey you" He answered and I melted a little at his words.

"Hi" I said smiling "I didn't interrupt anything did I?"

"No, sorry I was just getting on the bus and my phone was in my pocket which was under my jacket and it was a pain. It was raining here so I had to go to the bathroom to take my jacket off so it didn't soak everything but I got my phone" He said and I laughed

"Thanks for the life story" I said

"You asked for it" He said and I smiled through the phone

"That I did" I smiled

"I am so excited to see you in 7 days, where are you coming to again" He asked

"I got your tweet and tweeted you back" I said and he smiled. "I called you boo"

"Really" he asked and sounded like he was smiling

"Yeah, is that okay"

"Only because it's you" He said and I smiled

"Alright, good to know. I am flying from here to Newark then to Montreal. You have a show there that night. I am arriving in the morning." I said

"Alright, just let me know and I will come get you" He said

"Bruce was going to, better not to get noticed first thing" I said

"Alright, I am so glad you called I wanted to hear your voice even though I did this morning. How was recording" he asked

"It was good, long I was messing up this one line but I finally got it at the end so it was fun. The band was great and I can't wait for you to meet them."

"You said that before" he said laughing

"Yeah well you will soon enough"

"Definitely before the Europe tour" He said

"Well yes silly" I said and he giggled

"What song were you recording today?"

"Barefoot Cinderella" I said

"I love that song. It's amazing I can't wait to hear it recorded."

"OH I have news" I said

"What's the news" he asked and I knew I sounded giddy

"Well you will be meeting my band at the Teen Choice Awards" I said

"Why" He said curiously

"Well it's a surprise for the fans. I guess your fans. One of the planners saw the LA concert and suggested me so I am performing on stage at the teen choice awards" I said really loud

"NO WAY SERIOUSLY YOU ARE" he asked

"YES! Isn't that exciting"

"Oh my gosh Mitchie I am so happy for you and so proud, that is insane I will so be cheering you on" he said and I smiled

"Thanks. I was so excited when Savannah told me. That's why we were working on barefoot Cinderella I am performing it"

"Usually you would perform your first single" He said

"Yeah that will be the first one, which I don't mind it is one of my favourite songs, and I wrote another one, well started" I said

"That's great oh I am so happy. You are getting a huge hug for hours when I see you" He said and I giggled

"I will hold you to that as a promise" I said

"You better"

"You just winked didn't you" I said noticing his toned

"Maybe, fine yes it's a habit when I talk to you" He said

"It's fine' I said yawning

"Long day" He asked

"Yes I am going to turn on a movie and go to bed, you are pumped up on adrenaline still" I said

"Yeah I am, but we have to vote on this picture so I will definitely talk to you later, and let you get some sleep. I will call you tomorrow before I go on stage" he said

"Okay I might be recording but I will stop to talk to you" I said

"Okay babe, I love you and will talk to you then"

"Love you too Shane, see you in 7 days and I will talk to you tomorrow"

"Sweet dreams Mitchie"

"Always about you and candy" I said and he laughed

"The best of both" He said

"Boys and candy for sure" I said and we both laughed "Sweet dream to you too Boo"

"Night love"

"Goodnight" I said and we both hung up.

With a smile on my face I curled up and turned on Step Up 3. It was a very cheesy movie but I liked it. I placed the lap top on my bed side table and watched in as my eyes starting falling asleep. It was off my bed so it wouldn't over heat too much. I was happy Shane was happy for me and proud as well. After all he helped me sing and everything so he deserved a lot of thanks for this. I smiled as my eyes closed and listening to the movie I fell asleep knowing in 7 days I would once again be in Shane's arms for a months to begin.

A/N: Next chapter up. It took a while and it is pretty long with just writing no songs. Not the longest without a song but close to it. I am setting it up for the next 2 chapters for sure. Nothing that exciting happened but oh well. The next one if the end of the tour then the following one is the teen choice awards. I know they happen in August usually but I didn't plan it that way and it's a story so it's all good. It's always like summer in LA anyway. I will write when I can probably get one up during this week I have a few days off. Let me know what your favourite part was. I loved when they were on the balcony it was so cute. What was your favourite part of this chapter? Let me know what you think. Please Read and Review. Enjoy!
