Filler chapter because well my siblings wont let me near a computer soo I'll update super soon! I really dont own CR
"A boyfriend M-Caitlyn? Uh hi." I stuttered. Her eyes were slanted and I knew she was wondering why I spent so much time with Nate. "Nice to meet you." I jutted my hand out to shake his and he took it with a smile. "How do you know my uh dance teacher?" The three of us sat down and I heard a slam in the distance and looked around. Nate was gone.
"We met at an office barbecue a few months ago and I had taken her out for coffee once or twice. We bumped into eachother on the plane and she was just as enchanting as ever so I couldn't help but ask her to dinner. I dance as well and offered to help fill in." I eyed him, unsure of how to respond.
"I'm extremely grateful for that." My mom smiled at him and Leo leaned in for a kiss. I turned away quickly, feeling something slowly rising in my throat. Gross. I counted to four before I turned back around. Leo was gazing at my mother and I couldn't help but notice her eyes were anywhere but looking at his.
"Lunch time. See you two later." I rose slowly and began to walk away, speeding up my pace as I went. I bumped into Nate who looked around hurriedly until his gaze rested on me. "Hi..." I backed off to sit on a log across from him.
"Seems like a nice guy." He muttered after two and a half minutes of silence. I swallowed and shook my head, making him look up in surprise. "What do you mean? He's a dancer and some big time executive. I know you don't know Caitlyn but Leo's definitely her type." He cracked his knuckles distractedly.
"No! Her type is you! Leo is so..." I struggled to find a negative. "Clingy!" I finally spit out a word. Nate looked at me, confused, and I couldn't blame him. "I mean he's all over my...dance teacher and she totally doesn't like it. Guarenteed." I finished breathlessly.
Nate's eyes brightened and I felt like wiping off the beads of sweat that I felt glistening at my hair line. If he was always gonna be this gullible, I couldn't wait to have a dad!
"Really?" His eyes pored into mine and I nodded my head the tiniest fraction. I told him I had to go and began sprinting towards where Leo was standing on his cell phone behind Mom's cabin. I approached slowly and he closed it just as I was about two feet away.
"Ah. Long time no see." He smiled at me and I tried to pull off a convincing smile. "What brings you back? I can go get Caitlyn..." He took a step and I reached out to grab his arm.
"Wait! I just came to give you some advice. I heard Caitlyn and Mitchie talking about you yesterday!" I began. Leo looked at me, disbelief all over his face. "Really! They were talking about some really cute guy Caitlyn had met. How nice you are and a lot of other stuff." I had caught his attention, why would a twelve year old lie?
"You don't say..." He trailed off. I nodded excitedly and bit my tongue nervously.
"There was just one thing Caitlyn said she couldn't stand..." I looked up at the man in front of me, nodding his head, urging me to continue. "That you're really distant and don't show your affection enough." I mentally crossed my fingers.
"Really..." He looked thoughtful and I was psyched.
"Yeah, like holding her hands and telling her how you feel. She loves guys like that. Plus she's always playing hard to get I hear." Now I had lied a few times this summer, but now they were spilling out of my mouth faster than water out of Niagra! "She'd love it if you did something really public too. Like flowers or something like that... You know?"
He nodded and turned curtly away from me, walking inside. Just before he opened the door he looked at me. "Thanks kid." I grinned back at him with a thumbs up.
"No problem!" I walked back to my cabin. "Not a problem..." I laughed, all guys really could be dumb. As I saw someone walking into Nate's cabin I made a quick turn and ran in after him. "Plan in progress!" I blurted out and turned red as I saw almost all the counselors sitting inside, Nate excluded.
"Really Hayden? And what plan is this?" Brown asked me from across the cabin.
"Er, well. I sort of. Hi..." I felt my cheeks getting hotter and hotter. Ella, Jason, Mitchie, Shane, and Brown were all there.
"Hi." The cabin said in unison. This was doing nothing to help get the words out of my mouth. "Come on Hayden. Speak." Mitchie coaxed me and I saw Shane hide a smile behind his hand.
"I'm getting Nate and Caitlyn together." I looked up slowly at Mitchie and Shane first. Mitchie looked at me for a long time and I could tell she would be a great mother, she was figuring things out just by looking at me.
"Caitlyn has a boyfriend." Ella pointed out.
"She doesn't love him." I retorted.
"How do you know?" Jason questioned me.
"She cant love him!" I finally exclaimed weakly. "She just cant..." I felt the tiniest tear prickle at the edge of my eye. "Weren't she and Nate in love? Didn't she love him?" I looked up at the group of them pleadingly.
"I think she did." Shane spoke up. "They were definitely in love. Until the day she left and broke his heart." Mitchie reached up for her husband's hand and squeezed it.
"Well why did she leave?" I had relaxed a little and planned on getting every bit of information out of these people I could. Ella shifted a little in her chair and I whirled around to look at her "Ella? Why did she leave?" Ella had a wide gaze that I assumed meant she was thinking.
"I think she got scared. I mean Nate was going to ask her to marry him..." She fell silent. I stopped in my tracks.
"When did she leave?" I asked her quietly at first. There was no response so I made my voice louder. "When did she leave?" I crossed my arms tightly.
"The day Nate asked her." Jason stood up and looked down upon me. I tilted my head to meet his eyes and silently begged him to continue. "They were young. But they were definitely in love. The last few months of their relationship they were inseperable. And then on the day Nate pulled out that ring at dinner she was speechless. He gave her the ring and she still hadn't said a word. The next morning she was gone."
I squeezed my arms even tighter together and wanted to yell. I turned to Ella. "You said Caitlyn didn't have a boyfriend here." I could almost bet my eyes were darkening as I got angry.
Ella stood strong in front of me. "I didn't see it as important." I glared at her but didn't yell. I definitely wanted to. "Why should it matter to you?" Ella finally asked me curiously.
I turned around, not looking at any of them except Brown. "Tell them Hayden." He looked right at me and I knew it was time to tell the counselors why I had really come to Camp Rock.
"The reason it's so important to me is because..." Brown nodded his head to urge me to continue. "Is because I'm Hayden Gellar. Caitlyn's my mom and I came here this summer to find out more about my dad. I didn't expect to find him."
I looked at Shane and Mitchie first and both had identical looks of shock covering their faces. "Hey everybody what's going on?" Nate walked inside. I looked up at him, my eyes almost shining because I was just so...scared this wouldn't work.
I saw everybody looking between us and comparing the resemblances. I cleared my throat nervously. "Nothing Nate! I just got here to talk to you." he nodded I turned on my heel and walked out the door with him.
"Er that's really sweet Leo..." My mom was holding the most hideous arrangement of flowers I had ever seen. I coughed to hide my laugh but she still eyed me. I grinned at the two of them.
"Hi lovebirds!" I waved happily. Leo laughed and gave me a thumbs up when Caitlyn wasn't looking. Nate looked quizzically at the couple and then myself. "Er right. So I know how to get you and Caitlyn together."
Nate stopped in his tracks and I grabbed his arm, making him keep walking. "Wait! Nate this could work!" I pleaded with him and he looked at me doubtfully. "You want to be with her don't you?" He nodded. "Good. Then this'll work." I explained to him that my mom didn't really like Leo and all Nate had to do was make her fall in love with him again.
"You think it's that easy?" He crossed his arms and I nodded, subtly pointing to where Leo was whispering something in my mom's ear and she looked disgusted and pushed him in the lake. The two of us laughed and Nate nodded his head. "Alright fine. But I'm not doing anything stupid."
I grinned at him and threw my arms around his neck. "Yay!" I skipped away and into my cabin. That night I wrote for hours about what would have to happen and that morning cornered Brown.
"Alright I suppose so Hayden..." He scribbled something down on a piece of paper and handed it to me. I ran to Leo and Caitlyn's cabin and dropped the piece of paper in Leo's hands.
"It says Brown needs to talk to me tomorrow morning during first class. But I'm teaching...?" He looked up at me and I shrugged. "That's weird." They closed the door and I couldn't stop thinking about what would happen the next day.
