Chapter 11: Out of date
Disclaimer: I own nothing
An: Heres the next chapter..thanks for the reviews
Mitchie sat there. Nate knew. There was no fooling him. She thought that her and Jason would have just kept it between themselves, but she was wrong. Jason had confided in Nate that he had used an out of date condom and that he hoped that Mitchie was on the pill because he didn't want a baby right now. So he would know, he would know that she was carrying his child when Shane or Nate told him, he wouldn't take responsibility though, Mitchie knew that, but she knew that he had a habit of telling people what they didn't want heard. In other words he was the perfect pop star.
She would never have slept with him if she had known the outcome. Though, she thought that, she would never see Shane again. Things were screwed up in her life, she had no control over the outcome.
She had to get up and teach a class in fifteen minutes and she hadn't slept, she was also beginning to show, which for the rest of the camp, would not be good, as she had to portray a clean, squeaky image, which she had already tarnished.
Getting up out of her bed she dressed herself as loosely as she could, wearing the shirt that she had brought with her from the time she was pregnant with her first child. It hid the bump quite well. Though she didn't have very many more with her, she would have to go shopping soon.
She had asked Shane to sleep in his own room, she didn't want to see him, because any time she looked in his eyes she felt so guilty, she was lying to him, giving him false hope.
Pushing the door open, she headed down to her singing class. She had to teach people, not much younger than herself about singing. They were working on solos, and so far, she hadn't been impressed. Though, it could have been that she was distracted these past couple of weeks. And now, she had even more to worry about. Camp was truly more hassle than she had ever wanted.
"Morning" the class chimed as she walked in the door
"Morning everybody" Mitchie smiled, trying to remain as positive as possible
"Mitchie can we do something else today" somebody, sitting in the back asked
"What would you like to do"
"Songwriting..we heard you're real good" Miley said, in a thick southern accent
"I'm ok" Mitchie answered, feeling uncomfortable
"Sing us something will you" they asked, harmonising together
"Fine, but then its back to work" she said, trying to figure out why they wanted her to sing
"I've always been the kind of girl
That hid my face
So afraid to tell the world
What i've got to say"
The class burst into claps as Mitchie finished the words, the words had never seemed so real to her, for a while they had no meaning, the were just words, now they had a meaning, she was a coward, a liar and a cheat.
"Now, seeing as you all want to write songs, we're going to do this properly, I'm going to teach you how to compose the music and lyrics and which way works best for you, after that you'll all be getting an assignment"
The class seemed to go by as normal, though Mitchie couldn't get over the guilt that she felt each and every day that she looked Shane in the eyes and promised that he was the one. She knew that he would never forgive her. Not this time.
Come to think of it, she hadn't seen him all day.
She decided to take a quick walk, just to see anyway, she needed to know where he was, if even just to be reassured. She didn't know why she needed to see him, but something was annoying her, she had to do it. Walking up the pathway to the cabin, she peeked in the window and saw him, he was just sitting there on the phone. A smile spread on his face, as he told whoever it was on the phone that he was a father.
"yeah...i'm gonna do it tonight..."
Mitchie peered in the window, anxiously, to see what he was on about. She was nervous at this point, she didn't know what she should do. She felt bad for listening, but somehow, she knew that she should be there.
"I love her..of course..why wouldn't i"
Mitchie furrowed her brow, to top it all off, she was confused. He wasn't giving her anything to go with.
"I know..she's only seventeen..but marriage is the best thing"
Mitchie's eyes widened as she heard marriage. There was no way that she could marry him. No way, even if she hadn't have lied, she was only seventeen, she wasn't ready for marriage, what would she tell him, she couldn't break his heart even more than she had done in the past. He would think that she didn't love him, but she did, she just couldn't marry him.
As Shane flipped down the phone, Mitchie ran away, tears in her eyes, what was she getting herself into? One lie had turned into so many lies, she couldn't keep doing this. First her son, she lived with that. Now this, she could not say yes, there was just no way.
Her phone began to ring, it was Jason. She couldn't talk to him right now, but he wouldn't go away.
"Hello" she said, trying to hide the fact that she had been crying
"Hi Mitchie" he said, his voice chirpy
"How you been" she asked, hoping that he wouldn't bring it up
"How've I been" he said, sarcastically "I'm good"
"Though I did get some interesting news" he mumbled
"Really" she asked, trying to sound cool
"Mitchie..why did you say that baby was Shane's"
"What" she asked, shocked at the out bust
"I know you know" he said
"It's Shane's" she said,trying to keep a level playing field
"It's mine you lier" he spat, he didn't need this
"I was giving you an easy ride" she said, she knew that he would not buy it
She had no idea what to do, she couldn't lie anymore "You think that I don't want this child" he asked, sounding hurt
"Well, not really" she said, telling the first truth she had told in some time
"You're right" he sighed
"Then why the heck are you calling me you weirdo" she asked, her anger switched to annoyance
"Because if you don't tell him, i will"
"What, but you don't want the child" her voice was beginning to get wobbly
"Yes, and I know that he'll make a great father, but he deserves to know the truth, he deserves a choice, if you love him, please Mitchie, I'll give up all my rights if you want, just please do this"
"Ok" she answered, she knew what she had to do.
Walking back up to the cabin, she entered the cabin, not even minding if she was invited in or not.
"Hey Mitchie" Shane greeted, kissing her
Mitchie savoured that kiss, like no other.
"Hey look I have a question" he asked, taking her hand over to the chair
"Sit down"
Mitchie looked up at him, there was a box in his pocket, she couldn't do this.
"Shane"
"Just a minute Mitche babe"
"Shane" she said, becoming more and more nervous
"You can tell me in a minute"
"Shane " she shouted, she needed to tell him this "Listen"
Shane's smile fell. He didn't know what he had done this time.
"What" he asked
"Shane, its the baby" she said, searching his face
"What, is it ok, is there something wrong"
"Shane, the baby's not yours"
