Though I know we'd all like to(:
Please don't just put this story on alert and actually review.
"Uh sure?" Giving her an odd look she grasped his hand and led him to the dock.
"Shane," She placed a hand over his and he quickly rejected her attempt. "I was thinking, why waste your time chasing after a girl who doesn't remember you when you could have something so much better?" Tess batted her eyes and attempted to grab his hand once more.
"Who Caitlyn?" He joked knowing full well who she was talking about.
"No, someone closer than you think." Tess tried to remain her cool and desperately batted her eyes once more.
"Uh...no I can't seem to find Lola anywhere." He half smiled innocently after pretending to scout the area.
"No, me!" She shouted angrily. "I mean, why not?"
Why not? He could think of plenty why nots. But still, her question made sense. Mitchie had made it clear that she didn't want to see him again...
"So what do you say?" She smiled sweetly messing with his hair.
Swatting her hand away he frowned, "I'd rather take my chances with Caitlyn."
"Well...good! Because she likes you anyways!" She shouted, clear frustration drowning her voice.
"What?"
"No lie." She held up her hand 'honestly.' "And I have a plan to help you get Mitchie back."
Since when did Tess want to help me and Mitchie? Sure he was willing to take up on any help he could get. But there had to be some kind of advantage for her out of this deal.
"Fine." Hesitantly shaking her hand he couldn't help but regret ever saying that one word, that would more than surely wreck any chance he had with Mitchie.
"Excellent."

Mitchie walked out of the kitchen after finishing her daily work. She had still managed to not to talk to her mom. She didn't plan on forgiving her that easily.
Walking into the Dining Hall she grabbed a plate full of an assortment of fancy foods. Sure she wasn't going to eat all of it, but it still looked good.
"Mitchie!" Caitlyn shouted with a smile, waving her over to their table.
"Hey." Mitchie returned the smile with a warm one of her own and took a seat.
"So how have you been lately?" Lola asked looking down at her food, as if deciding what to eat first.
"Oh me?" Mitchie questioned looking up at her.
"Uh no. She was talking to me... because I just got here too." Caitlyn saved the situation and kicked Lola under the table. She had already told all of them about Mitchie but apparently they hadn't remembered.
"So are you and Shane still-" One of the back up dancers for Lola, Sean, began to ask but stopped short when both Lola and Caitlyn shot him angry looks.
"Still fighting?" Mitchie finished for him, "Yeah."
"What happened?" Lola asked ignoring another kick from Caitlyn.
"It's a long-" Mitchie followed the other tables gazes to the door. Of course, none other than Shane Gray had made a grand entrance. Rolling her eyes everybody looked back at her. "It's a long story."
Caitlyn, however, was still focused on the entrance. Didn't anybody but her find it odd that him and Tess had walked in together?
Tess walked to her table to sit with her fellow cabin mates and Shane looked straight at Caitlyn and gave her a smile and a wink. She quickly looked back at her table ignoring all the girls questioning looks towards her.
"Caitlyn!" He shouted, everybody's eyes once again on him. Signaling for her to come she rose out of her seat and gave a shrug to her friends back at their table.
"What do you want?" She asked but he was still looking out over the croud of people.
"What?! You can all stop gawking and continue eating." He ordered and instantly everybody but Mitchie, Lola, and Sean looked down. "When were you going to tell me that you liked me? I mean, I wouldn't have stayed in your cabin last night if you had told me." He sounded somewhat cocky.
"What?!" Caitlyn scoffed and looked absolutely mortified. "You've got to be kidding me. Why would you ever think that I would like-" Stopping her sentence she followed his stare towards Tess's table, she seemed to be mouthing something that looked like 'now.'
"Shane what's going-"
She was cut short by his hand around her waist and his lips crashing against hers.
Pulling away quickly she wiped her mouth, "What the hell?!"
The whole room fell silent. This time everybody's eyes on Mitchie. She felt tears stinging her eyes, they hadn't yet squeezed out but she knew they would soon. Turning to leave she ran into a tall figure.
Backing away and looking up it was none other than Brown. He slowly patted her back after seeing the tears in her eyes and looked to the front. "Shane, Gellar." He walked out of the room and they had no other choice but to follow.
Shane looked back only once to see Tess giving him a thumbs up and playful smile.
--
"I hate when I have to be so uncool!" He shouted, opening the door to his cabin and giving them enough room to squeeze in.
"Now since you all seem to be angry at one another, I'll start the questions. Is that ok with you guys? Or would you like to contradict and begin a fight about it?!" His voice boomed loudly and everyone knew better than to speak.
"Now, what happened between you and you." Pointing at Shane and Mitchie they looked at each other and Caitlyn took a step back. "Miss Gellar I would stay up front as this matter very well involves you."
Mitchie and Shane remained looking down. "Well I expect an answer in the next...I don't know...five seconds?"
"We got into a fight." All three heads turned to Mitchie but Shane was the first to look back down. "My mom said it'd be best if I didn't see him anymore, even though I tried explaining we were just friends."
Friends. That word stung Shane and he looked the opposite way.
"So I went on a walk, and Shane was at the lake. I told him that I didn't want to see him anymore... but he wouldn't stop asking me why."
"Of course I wouldn't stop asking you why! You think news like that was easy to take in? Especially if you lo-" He looked back down and a few tears threatened to escape from his brown eyes. In all his years, he had never criedso much in just a few days.
"I see." Brown was slow to reply but then the questions continued. "Shane. Where did you go last night, as you failed to arrive back here?"
Instantly both Caitlyn and him looked up.
"Well?"
"Caitlyn's." He mumbled, nervously shuffling his feet. Both him and Caitlyn seemed to find their shoes very interesting at the moment.
"I'm sorry?" Brown knew very well what he had said, but he wanted him to be man enough to admit it.
"Caitlyn's." He spoke louder.
Mitchie sniffled and looked away. "That's why you kissed her right?"
"Woah woah. Excuse me Miss Torres. What was that?"
Taking a short breath she looked at the both of them, "Why don't you tell him Caitlyn. Or would you like me to?"
"Mitchie please-"
"Save it." And with that Mitchie had left. Silence fell upon the three of them as brown pursed his lips.
"Your expelled from the rest of camp activities for a week."
"What?!" Both of them looked towards him like that was the most insane thing they had ever heard.
"For the rest of the week, or longer if you keep this up. Now out!"
They both scrambled out of his cabin going opposite ways. Though they were pretty far apart Caitlyn found the need to turn around unbearable. "This is all your fault!"
"Oh my fault? What about Mitchie?"
"What did she do? Just tell me and maybe I'll take your side?!" She questioned still keeping proper distance from him.
Silence.
"Nothing. She didn't do anything. And here you are sulking around like it's her fault? News flash, it's not all about you. You need to realize this is the real world, not some pop star fantasy where you get everything you want and no one ever contradicts what you say. Stop feeling sorry for yourself and just grow up." Turning on her heel she stomped away. Leaving him alone with his thoughts, which was one of the things that scared him the most.
--
Mitchie sat on a table in the Mess Hall. She figured they had been suspended from all classes for awhile. She wanted more than ever to know what was going on inside his head, why he had been so angry at her, why he kissed Caitlyn,... and most of all, what he was going to say earlier.
"Of course I wouldn't stop asking you why! You think news like that was easy to take in? Especially if you lo-"
She had an idea of what he had on his mind. But didn't push the topic. Hearing stomps on the stairs she quickly looked around for a place to hide. She wasn't exactly supposed to be in here alone and... Put it this way, she sucked at hide and seek. Walking around the other door she dove in the bushes under the window.
Low footsteps were all that could be heard through the window above her. When they stopped, silence followed.
Before she could leave the piano keys sound off beautifully, entrancing her in a cold freeze. Whoever was playing could play even better than her.
The song sent shocks through her, his voice was like nothing she had ever heard before.
It was so... unique and different. It made her feel safe and comfortable.
It somehow made her remember when her and Shane "first" hung out. When they played five questions and he asked her to dance, only to have her runaway with tears in her eyes. Remember... the word shocked her. She had forgotten what happened that day. And hearing him sing made her...remember?
Noticing the music had stopped she cautiously looked up through the window, hoping to see him. He obviously had to be it. The one. If he made her remember shouldn't he be? That's what her mom had always told her. Looking through the window she saw... Nothing. It was like there was nobody even there in the first place. The piano chair had been put back to the exact spot she had left it in.
Sparing no time she took off running to find her best friend, Caitlyn. Even if they had gotten in a small fight they told each other everything.
People all around the camp stared at her oddly. She had just gotten in trouble and banned from all classes for the rest of the week... and here she was running as fast as she could through the camp with the brightest smile on her face. Besides it didn't matter, she was over Shane and had luckily moved on. Hopefully towards her dream guy.
"Caitlyn!" Mitchie ran to her best friend, tackling her in a hug.
"Mitchie?!" Caitlyn pulled away from the hug and held her by the shoulders. "Are you okay."
Mitchie nodded her head with the most admirable dazed off look in her eyes.
"Your not mad?"
"Of course not." Mitchie smiled, "I'm in love." She beamed taking Caitlyn's hands and dancing.
"Woah there, the L word? You must be serious." Caitlyn ignored the weird looks fellow campers were giving them. Mitchie nodded and continued to spin Caitlyn around. "So who is the guy?"
"I have no idea." Mitchie smiled even bigger.
"Are you high? You don't even know the guy and you love him? Love is a really big word to use for someone you don't even know." She stopped dancing and gave Mitchie a concerned look. Which only made her giggle.
"I heard him singing and it just gave me a weird feeling, ya know?" Mitchie still had the same look in her eyes.
"No not really." Caitlyn chuckled, looking at Mitchie as if she was insane.
"Cat he made me remember!" Mitchie squealed. Caitlyn's look was overcome with shock and happiness.
"What exactly do you remember?" Caitlyn's look had disappeared, just slightly.
"The day I spent with... you know who. When we played five questions and danced or whatever."
"Oh. Well that's good...?" Caitlyn sighed and led Mitchie to her cabin. Letting her in, Mitchie sat on Caitlyn's bed.
"So tell me more about the one." Caitlyn giggled over her friend's excitement about a guy she didn't even know. Grabbing two sodas from her mini fridge she tossed one to Mitchie.
Tapping the top of it she looked at Caitlyn, "I don't know. Maybe I'm getting too excited over nothing."
"You think?" Caitlyn joked opening her soda.
"Shut up." Mitchie giggled. "There was just something about his voice... like I should recognize it but I didn't."
"Well you never know. Maybe he is the right guy for you, you know the special one." Caitlyn smiled honestly.
"Are you mocking me?"
"Just a little."
Mitchie laughed throwing a pillow at Caitlyn, causing her to knock some of her soda over.
"Ugh." Caitlyn made a fake shocked impression. "I bet your mystery guy won't like you if you keep that nonsense up." Caitlyn did a perfect Brown impression.
"Shut up." Mitchie chuckled once more. Silence fell over them for a bit. She had to admit it was hard to be mad at Caitlyn. She just seemed to understand everything Mitchie said, especially when others didn't.
"So what did the song sound like?"
"I can't sing it. I would probably ruin it." Mitchie looked down a tinge of laughter in her voice.
"C'mon your not that terribly bad." Caitlyn smirked but couldn't help but laugh at Mitchie's reaction.
"Fine I'll try. But don't laugh at my terribly bad voice." Mitchie grinned broadly. Caitlyn took a big sip of her soda before listening.
You're the voice I hear inside my head
The reason that im singing
I need to find you
Gotta find you
You're the missing piece I need
The song inside of me
I need to find you
I gotta find you...
Her eyes widened in alert as she spit out her soda.
"I'm sorry, what?"
A/N: Ehh it was a lot shorter than my last Chapter but it'll do. Hope you liked the ending(;
