(A/N; Hey it's me. I'm back! Sorry for the long wait, but I have been really busy. School has been really hard, but it can't keep me away from you guys to long. And thismight be the last chapter of the story. But no fear, theremight be a sequal. So here is another chapter. Oh and has anyone heard from MiniEllie? I hope we didn't lose her out in that big wide web.
Chapter 12:
Last Time;
"Mushu?"
"Yeah?"
"I want to give him another chance." she said stairing at top of her desk the whole time.
"What?" Mushu said turning around slowly.
"I want to be with him again. Give him another chance, to set things right." she said still looking at top of her desk.
Mushu climbed up to the top of the desk. "What gave you the idea?" he asked sounding alittle concerned.
"Nothing. I finally realized that I want to be with him. And it took me this long to figure it out. To see it." she said looking into the dragon's eyes.
"Alright then. You tell him that." he said looking up at her face.
"What? I can't just walk up to him and say, 'Hey Shang, I want to be with you again. I made a big mistake for not giving you another chance, please take me back.' I doesn't work like that." she said shocked.
"I know. But, you could give it a try." Mushu answered, scared that she'll blow in his face.
"I can't. I doesn't work like that. And you know it doesn't." she said standing up and walking to her bed.
Shang was in his bedroom. His mother and father had left 20 minutes ago and he was left babysitting Chu. He was suppose to go out with Tang, but his parents refused to let him, they told him that they need him here with her because there wasn't a babysitter with in miles. Except Mulan, but she had refused to babysit. "I would refuse to if I was going to be in the house of an ex." he said to himself. He had, however, hoped that Mulan was going to take the job, he really wanted to say something to her, something really important.
"Shang! Shang I need help!"
"Coming Chu!"
"Shang can you help me get down?" Chu asked as her big brother can into the kitchen.
"Chu! What do you think you are doing!" he said as he helped his sister down from on top of the refrigerator.
"I wanted a cookie." Chu answered with a smile as she held up the cookie.
Shang had to give her credit. She had climb up there all by herself just for a cookie. He remembered doing that samething on several occations when he was her age. And his father would have to come and get him down. "Next time come and ask me to get you one. I don't need you to fall."
"Okay." and she ran off into the living room.
Shang turned to go upstairs but there was a knock on the front door. He reached out and turned the knob. Shock spread over him. "Mulan?"
She smiled back at him. "Hi."
"What are you doing here?" he asked as he opened the door all the way to let her in.
Stepping through the doorway she said, "I needed to talk to you."
"Mulan!"
"Hello Chu. How's my favorite playmate?" she asked as Chu gave her a big hug.
"Good. But Shang doesn't make a real good babysitter. Why don't you come and babysit me anymore? Do you not like me? Did I do something wrong?" Chu asked with a sad expression.
"No Chu, I love you as another little sister. And you didn't do anything wrong. I did." Mulan answered her. Shang looked down at her, and she looked up at him there eyes locking. Tears started to well in Mulan's eyes. She stood up very slowly. Their eyes still locked. Mulan broke it and flung her arms around him. He embraced her. Her tears fell onto his shoulder. "I'm sorry." she said.
"No, I should be the one to be sorry. I never should have dumbed you. I see that now." he answered.
She backed up, "Shang there's something I want to say."
"How about we talk in private?" he asked. He looked down towards his little sister. "We'll be in the kitchen Chu. Don't go getting into trouble. You hear me?"
"Yes." Chu answered.
"Good. Now go watch TV." Shang said.
Mulan and Shang walked into the kitchen. Mulan sat down at the table.
"Cookie?" Shang asked after putting a plate of cookies on the table between them.
"Thank you." Mulan said taking one.
"What did you want to say?" he asked sitting down in the seat next to her.
She looked at him. How can I possibly say it? I can't tell him. I can't.
"Mulan? You okay?"
She snapped out of her daze, "Yeah, I'm fine."
"What was it you wanted to say?" he asked. I can't bring myself to say it. "Uh, Shang, I," she paused and closed her eyes."Shang, I,"
"What?"
Still with her eyes closed she said, "I was a fool to not give you another chance. I was covering myself with pity, I was feeling sorry fro myself." She finally opened
her eyes. Shang was staring at her.
"So what are you trying to say?"
"What I'm trying to say is, I should have gave you another chance. Shang, I want to be with you again." she answered.
He sat in silence for a few seconds. "You don't know how long I waited to hear that." he finally said. "Oh, Mulan I want to be with you to."
She smiled back at him. They both stood and smiled at each other before embracing into a hug. Tears were falling from her eyes again onto his shoulder. She was finally happy again.
"Now, to make it offical, Mulan will you go out with me, again?" Shang asked as they broke the hug.
Whipping her tears away she answered, "Yes."
"I knew it!"
Shang and Mulan look toward the kitchen door. Standing there was Tang, Chia, Yao, Ling, Chien Po, and Chu. All of them where cheering.
"Chu! Did you let them in?" Shang asked. Chu looked up at him and ran into the living room.
"Well I guess that answers you question." Mulan said watching Chu stick her head out from behind the armchair.
