Disclaimer: I Do Not Own Camp Rock or any of it's characters.
Though I know we'd all like to(:
Important!: Okay so I'm slacking off real bad with how long my chapters are turning out to be. But I really promise that the next chapter will be the longest yet.
"Mom?" Mitchie's voice choked up as she searched around the small kitchen. The thoughts that lingered i her brain were now killing her. Taking chunks and chunks of her with them.
"Honey what's wrong?" Connie walked in from the back room taking off her gloves, instantly running to her daughter.
Finally letting it go the tears flew freely now. Connie's arms wrapped securely and comforting around her as if shielding her from anything that may make the situation any worse.
"I wanna go home." Mitchie sniffed taking her hands and wiping under her eyes.
Hesitating she took her daughters hand, "Mitchie, you know I can't just leave in the middle of camp."
"I'm tired of everybody here. No one treats me like I'm even worth anything."
"Now you know that's not true. I think Caitlyn should be offended by that comment." Connie pulled away from her daughter and have her a hard stare.
"Caitlyn? You mean the only friend I have here that betrayed me halfway through camp?"
Connie was now at a loss of words. She didn't know what she could possibly say to help. Maybe something along the lines of she was there for you when no one else was... two years ago.
"Please take me home." Mitchie pleaded looking into her moms eyes once more.
Turning her head to face her own she spoke, "I can send your dad to come get you. If your sure this is what you want."
Mitchie bit her lip and nervously looked around the room. "I'm sure."
"Okay." Connie let go of Mitchie's arms and looked around for her phone. "Go pack." Turning Mitchie around Connie ushered the young girl out the door.

"Shane come back here!" Tess ran off stage, or attempted to, in her heels which she soon took off and carried in her hand.
"Why?!" Shane turned around fiercely, scaring Tess half to death, and gave her a menacing glare.
"Well," Tess tapped her foot impatiently. She hadn't exactly thought about what she was going to say but at this point she didn't really care. "Why are you always chasing after her. Hasn't she made it obvious enough that she wants you out of her life? Get over it."
"Get over it? Your acting like nothing ever happened, it's not easy to forget two years that meant a lot to me!"
"It was for her." Tess planted her hands firmly on her hips before giving him a questioning look. "And tell me why, Shane, it was so easy for her to forget you even existed when you can't even let go of a meaningless summer."
"Meaningless?"
"Well that's what it was for her isn't it? If she's already forgotten shouldn't you?" Tess smirked mockingly now turning circles around him like a hawk watching it's prey before the attack.
"You know it was an accident." Shane stared her in the eyes only to quickly look down. Sensing the nervousness in his voice she pushed further.
"Do I? I mean if everyone else has already forgotten then why shouldn't you and I?" When there was still no reply she continued on. "Did you honestly think she'd stick around all summer when you treated her like shit everyday? Or did you think she'd just forgive you like everybody else is always used to doing?"
"Tess-"
Cutting him off she smirked once more. "Poor Shane Gray. Always left behind but never forgotten. Except by one, that is."
"I don't need this right now." Turning to leave Shane hesitated as her words wrapped around his brain eating at him.
Hurriedly stepping in front of him Tess looked him in the eyes as he instantly caste his gaze the opposite way.
"After all, it's your fault isn't it?"
Her words froze him like a winter day, buried beneath the snow. "What?"
"She would have come to you. None of this wouldn't of happened had you just read that one letter."
"But-"
"But," cutting him off again she began walking forward as he backed up, "You didn't. Did you now? All because of you she doesn't remember a single thing before this year."
"It's not my fault." Shae tried confidently standing up for himself but she continued to move towards him as he moved backwards.
"Is that so? You think you really didn't do anything? Ha. You didn't think she'd stay after you had finally dished out enough for her to handle." Tess laughed pushing further and further.
Shane gave her a questioning look before she proceeded.
"She was leaving you Shane."
Looking down it seemed as though the realization hit him.
"Your Mitchie, was leaving you."
"Stop it."
"And who is to blame for this disaster? No other but Shane Gray."
"Stop!" Shane demanded looking every direction but hers.
"It's quite the sad story actually. She loved you, first you made her forget the best summer of her life then you make her leave the one place she felt she truly belonged. Bravo Shane. You deserve a standing ovation for such a performance."
Finally backing against the bark of a tree Shane came to a stop.
"It's all your fault!"
"No..." Shane shook his head in disbelief.
Pulling a fist back she swung it forward straight into his stomach. Leaving him to look at her in shock.
"Hm exactly the look she gave you when you said that my lyrics were beautiful. Ha god it's still bottles my mind how you would trust someone like me." Swinging back again she gave another hard punch straight into the same spot.
Shane could feel blood trying to come through out of his mouth. Reaching to wipe the trickle that came down Tess harshly grabbed his hand.
"This all played out to be quite the funny story actually. You betrayed her friendship for the one of her enemy. Kissed her best friend. Claimed that her song was indeed not hers."
"That was all you." Shane attempted to say spitting out some blood.
"But she doesn't know that now does she?"
"She will."
Throwing him another hard punch she seemed to nail him in the same spot.
"It troubling that you'd even begin to trust a bitch like me." Tess smirked.
"What do you want from me?"
"Oh nothing. You've already done everything I wanted. My use for you is no longer needed." Kicking one of his knees her heels dug into his skin as he fell to the ground with a harsh scream.
"Have a kick ass summer Shane." Tess mocked placing two fingers on her lips then pressing them against his forehead.

"Mitchie you all done?" Connie walked into the cabin to see her daughter packing up her last few items.
"I think so." She sighed taking a seat on her bed.
"This cabins going to be awfully lonely without you." Connie teased taking a seat next to Mitchie.
"I'm sorry." Mitchie looked down and her hand rested on top of her moms.
"Honey it's fine. Your dad left about an hour ago, he should be here in a few minutes."
Mitchie nodded and take a deep breath in.
"There's someone here who wants to say bye." Connie looked o the door where Caitlyn stood. "I'll give you two a minute." Getting up from the bed she walked out shutting the door behind her.
There was an awkward moment of silence. Mitchie wondered if Caitlyn and even come to say bye.
"So your leaving huh?"
Mitchie nodded, "It's what's best."
"For who exactly? What help is it going to do for you by leaving when we need you most?"
Mitchie was taken by surprise by Caitlyn's response. "What are you talking about? All people have done since I got here is treat me like crap."
"So how am I supposed to take that. I consider it a pretty big insult when all I've done is try to make you feel good about yourself like you belonged for the past two years!"
"I haven't known you that long!" Mitchie rose from the bed, both their voices gaining more and more anger.
"Open your eyes and maybe you'd see why everybody smiles at you and waves when you don't 'know them'. Don't you think it's strange that everybody claims to know you for two years? Does it even get to you or are you to concerned that everybody supposedly hates you here?"
"I don't know what your talking about." Mitchie fiddled with the zipper on the suit case as if pretending that it needed shutting.
"Oh and Shane? Great job treating him like total crap when he loves you."
"How is that fair for me if I don't love him! This may seem strange to you but I don't fall in love with someone I've known for a few weeks."
"Two years!" Caitlyn argued back her voice booming around the room.
Before Mitchie could respond her mom had opened the door, "Mitchie your dads here."
Grabbing her suitcase she walked past Caitlyn and looked at her.
"Nice knowing you." Caitlyn said weakly shoving past Connie and out the door.
Ignoring the strange looks form her mom Mitchie darted out the door and before long had her stuff in the back of the truck.
"Hey Mitchie." Her dad beamed and gave her the biggest hug she had received in awhile.
"Mitchie!" A faint voice cried in the distance as she got into the car.
Shane struggled to talk or walk but as soon as he saw the truck moving he broke out in a run. As fast as he could just wasn't enough to him. He ran faster and faster coughing up blood every now and then. A few yards away from the truck he stumbled falling to the ground with a slight groan. The truck continued to move and sure enough it was out the gate before he had the chance to say bye.
"Shane!" Caitlyn ran as fast as her feet would take her before collapsing to the ground beside him. "Who did this to you?!" Her eyes were full of tears as she stared at the puddle of blood that came from his mouth.
Shane hesitated before pondering if he should even tell her what Tess had done that evening. "Just get me to the nurse. "
Caitlyn looked around nervously, she obviously had no idea how to get him there. Her only hope was that he wouldn't suffer from internal bleeding by the time she was able to get him there.

Thirty minutes into the drive Mitchie had just finished listening to a song on the radio. It seemed to get to her, playing over and over in her head. It was called When You Look Me in the Eyes apparently. But just by hearing it once it was instantly her favorite song. Thinking about the lyrics her mind went blank before a rush of pictures came bottling through her mind. Pictures of camp. But not pictures from this trip. It seemed as though an earlier trip.
The realization finally hitting her she sat up quickly giving her dad a scare. "Stop the car!" This did't seem like such a crime considering it was the middle of a deserted road in the woods.
Slamming on his breaks they both flew forward then back against there seats. "Honey what's going on."
"Dad, I remember."
Eyes widening with joy he smiled, "Remember what exactly?"
"Two years ago. Camp." Mitchie smiled with relief.
To bad this would be the last words she spoke to her beloved father. I suppose their to caught up in the moment to even notice a strange sight headed straight on toward them. What with an eighteen wheeler hurdling down the road full speed, a road isn't so deserted after all now it is?
