A/N: This update is for Jesse's babe and dramaqueenV !!! Thanks so much for your reviews and everyone who reviewed! You made me feel so special and I just had to update! So I sincerely apologize for taking so long to do so!

MERRY CHRISTMAS! HERE'S AN UPDATE!

Mia's POV

Is this really happening? Is Michael really kissing me? OH NO! He must have kissed me by mistake. I mean, he didn't WANT to kiss me did he?? DID HE?!

I thought it might be a mistake, but now I'm not sure, because right when I was about to pull away, he pulled me in closer and kept kissing me. So I did the most reasonable thing that a Princess who ALREADY HAD A BOYFRIEND would do in my situation…….I kissed back. Now you may think that a Princess who had a boyfriend wouldn't do that….but be real, here…. He's the love of my life. Who WOULDN'T kiss back?

Right when I started to kiss back, I heard someone say, "Isn't that Princess Mia?!"

My eyes popped open and I pulled away. Of course, common sense would say not to look at them. After kissing Michael though, I had no common sense and I looked right into their face.

"IT IS! IT'S PRINCESS MIA!" they screamed as everyone started running towards me and pulled out cameras and started snapping shots. To my dismay, I remember hearing a camera before Michael and I pulled away, and I really hoped that we had not had a picture taken of us making out. Grandmere would be VERY UNHAPPY!

Before I could run away, I had a few people already standing around me. They were asking questions like, "Is that your boyfriend, Mia?" or "Who's that gorgeous looking male with you?"

I would have been so proud to be standing next to such a gorgeous guy with his top off if it weren't for two things. One being that all the teenage girls were all eyeing him up and down and second, I WAS SURROUNDED BY PEOPLE ASKING QUESTIONS. Which as a matter of fact, I remembered that Michael was in fact NOT my boyfriend and that I did have a boyfriend who I ditched today. I started to feel incredibly horrible. I really hope Kenny doesn't hear about this!

My eyes started tearing up. I couldn't help it. WHAT AM I GOING TO DO NOW? I finally got the kiss I was waiting for since like forever and I couldn't even enjoy it afterward.

So that's when Michael spoke up.

Michael's POV

"Mia does not feel like answering any questions," he said grabbing my hand and pulling me along. "and she would prefer if you do not mention of any of this to anyone."

I knew saying that wouldn't help but I figured that it was worth a shot. I can't believe I kissed Mia. It was even better than I expected. But of course, they had to come along and ruin it right when it was getting good.

I grabbed Mia's hand and pulled her with me as I began to quicken my pace as some people were following us. We walked right past Tina, Ryan, and Seth as Tina looked at us oddly.

"What happened?" she asked starting to follow us.

Mia's face turned bright red. I'm hoping that's a good sign. Ryan and Seth began to follow us also as Ryan walked up to Mia.

"Were you crying? What did HE do to you?" he asked giving me a dirty look.

"What? Nothing, he did nothing. I mean we did nothing. Nothing at all. We were doing nothing," she rambled then turned bright red again.

"Hmph" he said as he continued walking with us.

"Why are the reporters following you?" Tina asked curiously.

"Uhhhh no reason. But I gotta get Mia away and up to our room. So we'll see you later," I said quickening the pace.

"Mia, do you want me to come with?" he asked her touching her arm.

What is with this dude? First, he just met her. Second, SHE'S OFF LIMITS. Does he not get it?

"No. I think I can handle it," I said, pulling Mia closer to me and pulling her with me as we ran to our room avoiding all the press.

People will do anything for a scoop and some cash.

Mia's POV

Michael was a little possessive there. I would never admit it, because my mother would freak, but it was a little hot. He's not even my boyfriend. Although, I could just be imagining it. But after he kissed me, what am I supposed to think?

We finally got to our room, after leaving Ryan stranded with reporters running up to him asking him if he knew me……

Michael pulled me into the dorm room and said, "We need to talk." When we looked up though, we weren't alone. Kenny, Boris, Lilly, Lars, and Wahim were all staring up at us, while we were in swimsuits and still wet from the water. I blushed deeply.

How am I going to explain this to Kenny. I mean, luckily, he doesn't know about what happened between us, but he does know that I ditched him to go to the beach with Michael. Really, I was going with Tina, but it didn't look like that to everyone else in the room. All they saw were two people, a girl and a guy. The girl in a bikini and the guy in nothing but swimming trunks, still wet, panting heavily, and looking a little frazzled. Let me tell you, that's not a good thing.

Wahim spoke first. "Where's Tina?" Uh oh. How would I explain that we left to the public beach WITHOUT OUR ASSIGNED BODYGUADS?!

"Umm at the beach…" I trailed off.

"I'll go look for her," he said walking out the door.

"So Princess, I'm guessing, by your attire, that's where you were? " Lars asked.

"Umm yeah. Sorry" I said looking down, fully expecting him to threaten to call my father. What he did was so awesome though.

"Don't worry about it." he said, then walked up and whispered into my ear. "You were in good hands, and I'm sure you two needed some time alone." He winked then walked away. DOES EVERYONE ON THIS EARTH KNOW ABOUT MY CRUSH ON MICHAEL BESIDES HIM? IS IT REALLY THAT OBVIOUS?!

I blushed and glanced over at Michael, who was staring at me, and I looked away.

"Mia, what were you doing at the beach with Michael?" Kenny asked glaring at Michael, then I looked at him angrily, and he corrected himself.

"I mean, did you have fun at the beach?" he asked. That's better. I don't want to be accused of anything. Although, he would totally have a right to accuse me because I was totally guilty, but I really don't want him to know.

"Mia, come watch TV with me," he said scooting over on the couch so I could sit next to him. I didn't want him to get too suspicious so I glanced at Michael sadly and went over and sat next to Kenny as he put his arm around me.

They flipped through the channels, resting a few second on each, before checking out the next. Michael sat down in a chair to the right of the couch. I was on the end of the couch, so he was right next to me, in a sense. They flipped through the channels and it landed right on the show Cheaters…..I glanced at Michael right as he glanced at me, then I glanced at Kenny. I looked down in my lap ashamed.

"I don't feel well. I think I'm going to go lie down. Let me know when Tina gets all the orientation stuff done." I said glancing at Kenny and Michael again as I walked out. Michael looked pretty hurt and I heard him speak too. "I don't feel well either. It must have been something we ate earlier." He got up and we both walked into our rooms.

A little bit later, Someone knocked on the door.

"Mia, it's Tina. Can I come in?"

"Yeah."

"Hey….." she trailed off. "Can I turn on the light?"

"Sure."

"What happened back there?"

"Well Michael and I were playing in the water, and he chased me. Well we tripped and he landed on top of me. Then, he kissed me. But someone saw us and yelled 'IT'S PRINCESS MIA!' and so then I had all these reporters asking if Michael was my boyfriend. So we just ran away……and came back here. When we got here though, pretty much everyone was here. Then we sat and watched TV and flipped through the channels….and… and….. Cheaters came on. I felt horrible," I explained, holding in a few tears. "I can't believe I cheated on Kenny. I mean, it was with the guy that I love, but he doesn't love me back, and now I've hurt Kenny and embarrassed myself in front of Michael. So Michael and I just went to our rooms."

"What do you mean Michael doesn't love you back?! He actually said that? Did you tell him you loved him?"

"No, I didn't tell him, and No, he didn't say that. I just know it. Why would HE love me?"

"Mia, Michael wouldn't kiss you if he didn't like you. He's not that kind of guy. You know that."

"He could have just been caught up in the moment. It could have been an accident." I explained, not wanting to believe it, but knowing that it had to be true. Michael could never love someone like me.

"It wasn't an accident. I'm sure. Why don't you go talk to him?" she asked.

"I don't know. Maybe in a little while. So how did things go with Seth?"

"Amazing. He's amazing. He's kind, sweet, cute, gentle, and guess what? He's in a band. He plays guitar, and Ryan plays drums. Isn't that awesome?"

"Yeah, Tina, that's great. I'm really happy for you." I said smiling. At least one person on the trip will get a fairtytale. It just won't be me.

"Thanks, Mia." she said smiling back and stood up to walk out of the room. "I'll leave you alone."

"Hey Mia?"

"Hm?"

"I hope everything works out with you and Michael. You really should talk to him." she said smiling and walking out.

Hmm maybe I should. I mean, can it get any worse anyway?

A/N: REVIEW! I know that Kenny's not gone yet, I'm sorry. I'm getting rid of him in a process, but they're going to be in Cali for a long time living together, so I don't want them to be toooooo awkward the WHOLE time, so I'm dragging it out a little. I'll try to get it in there as soon as I can. Oh, also I still haven't gotten any suggestions for the MTV show name? So far, I'm thinking of just calling it Highschool or something unoriginal like that unless anyone can think of any suggestions.

Also, can anyone think of any California reporters for me? Mia has to do 3 interviews. If you can't think of any, I might just have to use popular ones from anywhere and just pretend that they work around where she is in Cali…..

Well, REVIEW! PLEASE?!!! Hehe Byezerz!
