You Guys, actually, rock. I didn't realise that you liked my stories that much! I had 10 new emails this morning and 5 more when I got home from school. This chapter is shorter, I know, but I wanted to get it out sooner to please you guys. Also, introducing Aleeshya! Hope you guys like :)


Then I heard the sound of twigs snapping and someone falling. I quickly got up and turned to the direction of the sound. There was a tall, blond girl brushing of various bits of leafs from her body whilst standing on a snapped branch. I presumed that she had fallen from the tree.

"Hello?" She looked up at me and smiled. She walked over to me.

"Hi, I'm Aleeshya" she grinned. Well at least one of us was happy.

"Mitchie. Did you just fall from a tree?" I looked over at the twig pile and back at her.

"Pretty much. It's a great view up there"

"I prefer my feet to me on the ground, personally" I smiled. She grinned even more.

"Your kind of scaring me..."

"Sorry, my first friend at Camp Rock. I'm so happy!" She exclaimed, jumping up and down. I giggled.

"So your new here to?"

"Yep, I'm from Vermont"

"New Jersey. I'm here with my mom"

"Cool! Now you wont get home sick"

"Yeah..."

"Do you know where the Mess Hall is? I was looking for it before, but ended up here and then I went up the tree and then fell, met you and now here we are!"

"Yeah I do, I'll show you the way, but once we get there, I'm leaving"

"Why, are you scared of food?" I looked at Aleeshya. I don't think she was joking. I rolled my eyes and then pulled her tp the Mess Hall.

"Here we are, you go inside, i'll see you around some other time" I started to walk away.

"But Mitchie, I don't know any one else. I don't want to look like a Loner" She said whilst pouting. I sighed and we both walked into the hall. I saw Caitlyn was still sat at the table, with a few other people, but I could only see the backs of there heads. We walked over to the table and sat down.

"Caitlyn, this is Aleeshya" Caitlyn shook Aleeshya's hand once she had sat down. Aleeshya was grinning.

"This is Barron, Sander and Lola" Caitlyn said, pointing to each of them. I waved at them and then looked at the person who was reading a Cosmo magazine, with it covering there face.

"Whose that?" I whispered to Caitlyn. She froze.

"Well, um, he's kinda friends with Barron and Sander, and he wouldn't leave us alone and you wont like this but he's actually kind of nice and...-" She quickly whispered back.

"Caitlyn, stop, who is it?" I hissed. Suddenly the person put down the magazine and started to talk to Barron.

"Apparently I'm the perfect girl for Nate White...-" Then HE saw me. Of all people. "Hello Kitchen Girl" He said smirking. It was Shane. I sighed.

"Leave me alone" I mumbled back.

"But I enjoy teasing you, its ever so fun" He said, grinning. I must of looked angry because Caitlyn was holding me, as if restraining me.

"So, what was that about Nate, Shane?" Barron quickly said. Shane took one last look at me, then turned to Barron.

"I'm gonna go get some food" Aleeshya said, obviously feeling the awkward-ness, and quickly dashed over to the food bar.

"I'm sorry Mitchie" Caitlyn whispered.

"Why? I can't avoid him forever" I looked over at Shane, who appeared to be laughing at me. I really wanted to hurt him. Or steal all of his jeans. Or cut his hair off. Or...

"Mitchie? Hello? Your staring at Shane" Caitlyn hissed and waved an arm in front of my face. I came back to earth, to see Shane smirking at me.

"I'm really that irresistible, huh?" He asked, smiling. I snorted

"You wish"

"So whose your favourite member of Connect 3?"

"Oh, so your talking to me now. Why do I get a feeling that this is going to somehow backfire in my face?"

"Truce?"

"I'll think about it" I said, folding my arms. Everyone looked slightly awkward. Aleeshya came back over with a plate of pizza. Oh how I wished I could smother that over Shane's face and hair...

"Hey guys!" She said, cheerfully

"We're going" Caitlyn said, signaling to the others. I glared at her. She grinned sheepishly back and her and Barron pulled Aleeshya out of the door, followed by Sander and Lola. When they were out of eye-sight, I could still here Aleeshya complaining about not being able to eat her pizza.

"So...how 'bout 20 questions" Shane asked. I turned around and raised an eyebrow at him. He smirked and picked up an apple that had been on Lola's tray. He dug into it.

"Ew. And I still haven't forgiven you." I replied coldly.

"Come on! Who doesn't love Shane Grey?"

"Me. I always preferred Nate, for your information" I said, in a 'as-a-matter-of-fact-ly' tone. He pulled a face.

"I'm hurt" He pretended to wipe a tear from his eye. I rolled my eyes.

"Are you being serious?" He asked.

"Nope, I prefer Jason"

"Mitchie, baby, your killing me"

"Don't call me baby"

"Sorry, Hunny" He said, leaning forward. I made a gagging noise.

"Are you always like this around girls?"

"No, just you"

"Wow, I feel so special to have Shane Grey perving on me"

"Hey, i'm being friendly!" He leaned back again. I smirked.

"Your not doing a very good job"

""Well, how are you meant to be friendly?"

"First off, you apologize for being rude" I leaned in, acting cocky.

"Fine, I apologize for being rude to you, Mitchie" He said, looking down, like a kid who had gotten caught stealing cookies. I smiled.

"Who said you were meant to apologize to me?" He rolled his eyes.

"I don't like acting friendly any more" He held his head in his hands.

"Aw, you were doing so well" I actually generally smiled then. He seemed to perk up a bit.

"So whats the next a step?" He asked, smiling an incredibly cute smile. Wait hold that thought. Cute and Shane Grey shouldn't go together in the same sentence. Not at all. Was the mountain air getting to me, or did I actually call Shane cute?


Is anyone else thinking of bursting out singing 'Love is the air'? I know I am. I might have to add that in some how...

Anyway, should I finally introduce Tess in the next chapter? And do you think Mitchie is going crazy? Ok, now I want to sing 'You drive me crazy'. I better stop before I really do go crazy. Bye guys! RxR :)
