AN: Hey, sorry for not updating in a while. I update things according to the response I get, so my main focus was on getting 'Full Circle' up. So now that I'm done with that, I'll be spending more time on this.
Nate watched Shane and Mitchie fall in love again; Mitchie hadn't moved out yet, but things seemed to be falling in to place for the couple. But Nate was falling apart; he wanted Mitchie to be happy… but her being happy could only come when he let her go. So instead of being depressed, Nate decided to go a different route, he was going to explain everything to the only girl that loved him as more than a friend –Keana.
She was the only unchanging thing in Nate's life; the way he felt about Mitchie had changed, the way him and Shane acted around each other had changed, but most of all, his entire life had changed. And while watching Mitchie fade away from his life; Nate made up his mind.
It was a cold, dark night; and those circumstances are only alright when you had the one you love right beside you, and Nate didn't have that girl. That's why he's not even trying to sleep, he just thinks about what he can't have.
Shane and Mitchie looked up at the stars. The night sky was beautiful, the dark blue background with lights all around it, the only realistic thing, the moon, being perfectly caressed.
Shane had his arm around Mitchie, holding her tiny body against his own. Mitchie had her head on his chest; they were in a comfortable position, especially for the moment they were living.
"It's so beautiful." Mitchie stared in awe at the moonlit sky.
"Not as beautiful as you" Mitchie turned to look at Shane, and he gave her a look of honesty, noticing how beautiful she looked in the pale moonlight.
"I'm not so sure about that…" Mitchie innocently said with a smile on her face.
Shane rolled his eyes at how she still never accepted that she was truly beautiful, but he liked seeing her like this. She was the girl that every other guy admired when she was happy. But Shane didn't get jealous when another guy would stare.
Shane gently kissed Mitchie. She closed her eyes and went along with it. They pulled away before Shane told her "I've been waiting all night to do that."
"After not kissing me for months… Just wondering, but why didn't you kiss me way earlier? We were together for a while before now, but we never really did anything 'coupley'" Mitchie slightly pried -or at least tried to pry- into Shane's thinking. Because, knowing his romanticness, he'd never have waited this long.
"I didn't really know how you felt on the matter, you'd had a rough time just before we met again."
"Where have you been this past month?"
Nate looked at her, he didn't know exactly what to say.
"Keana, please just listen to me."
"I'm listening" Keana wasn't sure that this story was going to be true; even though Nate hadn't lied to her before.
"I've been helping another girl this past month"
"Do you love this girl?"
That was the hardest question for Nate to answer, nearly impossible. He did love Mitchie. He knew he couldn't have her. So Nate was making a realistic move.
AN: Okay, I know you guys hate it when I leave you hanging, but I've already written the next chapter, how long you'll have to wait... It all depends on the reviews.
