I'm so sorry! I was supposed to post this yesterday but then I got dragged into going to an arcade and the mall. It was so boring. Here's the next chapter and the explanation to Mitchie's new look. Read and review! Also, I'm gonna upload another chapter later to make it up to you guys. Hooray!

Shane stood up and walked over to Mitchie's table. She was alone and now all eyes in the cafeteria were on the two. Mitchie even looked up at him but she didn't even care about him. "Can I help you?" she asked in a dull tone.

"No, but I can help you," Shane said, putting on a smirk.

"Wow, you're a bright ray of sunshine," Mitchie stated sarcastically. She turned away from him and went back to poking her spaghetti with a fork.

"Okay, what's with the attitude?" Shane laughed.

"Do you mind? I'd rather be alone and you're not helping." Shane's face fell.

"What is wrong with you? I haven't seen you in a month and you act like this towards me?" Shane completely blew up and now everyone was definitely watching them. "You left while I was unconcious and just say 'bye' by singing a song and now you act like you don't know me. Do you even care about me or my feelings? I'm a person, too! You can't just waltz into my life and just rip my heart to shreds! What the hell is wrong with you Mitchie?!"

The cafeteria fell silent after Shane's rant. Shane took a deep breath and started to walk away, only to be stopped by Mitchie, who also rose from her seat. "Whoa, whoa, whoa. You have no reason to accuse me of doing anything to you. I don't even know you. I don't know you, your friends, or why, you, even have, a-a bodyguard." Mitchie said the last part slowly and confused. "You have no right to yell in my face and tell me what to do. If I look one of your ex-girlfriends or something, well I'm not. I'm just the new student at this school who doesn't even know much about herself. So, LEAVE ME ALONE AND GET OVER IT!" Mitchie stomped out the cafeteria in a huff, also leaving the cafeteria speechless.

Shane only responded with one word that was barely over a whisper, "What?"

"That cannot be Mitchie," Shane muttered as he leaned his head on the window. They were going to Mitchie's house. There were definitely some things they needed to be filled in on. Shane looked out the window and saw Mitchie, or at least the new Mitchie, walking home. "Mitchie..."

"We're here!" Jason said enthusiastically, not bothered or knowing about the tension in the truck. Everyone nodded and got out of the car going straight for Mitchie's door.

"Oh, um, hello guys. Come on in," Connie said. She didn't really know that all of them were coming. After everyone was settled, Nate got to the point because Shane had his head down, still moping.

"Mrs. Torres--"

"Connie."

"Connie... We saw Mitchie at school today and she was completely different. And when Shane tried to talk to her, she blew up in his face and then left angrily."

Connie looked down, trying to figure out what to say. When she did, she explained the whole thing. "A week after Mitchie ran away, we received a phone call from the nearby hospital. Apparently, while Mitchie was walking down the sidewalk one night, a drunk driver was speeding down that road and well, hit her. She didn't break any bones but she fractured a couple and she was in a coma for a week. When Mitchie woke up, she didn't remember anything at all. Only that her name is Mitchie Torres. For two weeks, we were showing her pictures and videos of herself, us, and you guys, too, but she couldn't remember anything about you guys. Only that we were her parents and somehow, her love for music was still with her. She remembered all her songs but she didn't even remember that she sang that duet with you Shane." Shane frowned and hung his head again. "She became depressed after struggling with her amnesia so now she's all dark now. We've been trying to cheer her up but nothing's worked."

Their conversation was interrupted when Mitchie slammed the door to the house. Her eyes scanned the group before her before landing on her mom, and then Shane. "What is he doing here?" she coldly spat.

Shane stood up and just muttered, "I'm just leaving." Shane left without another word leaving everyone still speechless.

"Whatever," Mitchie grumbled before running upstairs to her room. She slammed her door making Connie cringe.

"I'm sorry for her sour attitude. It's just how she is now," Connie apologized, looking ashamed.

"It's okay. We'll just leave now," Peggy said and everyone agreed and followed out the door silently.

The next day was pretty much the same when Mitchie came to school, besides her yelling feud with Shane. The only difference, besides the feud, was that Mitchie brought along a guitar. This made everyone even more curious, especially Shane. During free period, Shane followed Mitchie as she went outside to the courtyard. He hid behind some bushes as she started to tune guitar. When she was satisfied by its sound, she started to play,

Did you forget that I was even alive?
Did you forget everything we ever had?
Did you forget?
Did you forget about me?
Did you regret ever standing by my side?
Did you forget what we were feeling inside?
No more left
To forget
About us

But I saw where we went wrong
We were once so strong
Our love is like a song
You can't forget it

But now I guess
This is where we have to stand
Did you regret ever holding my hand?
Never again
Please don't forget, don't forget

We had it all
We were just about to fall
Even more in love
Than we were before
I won't forget it
I won't forget, about us

But I saw where we went wrong
We were once so strong
Our love is like a song
You can't forget it

Stop where we belong
We were once so strong
Our love is like a song
You can't forget it

And at last
All the pictures have been burned
And all the past
Is just a lesson that we learned
I wont forget it
I wont forget us

But I saw where we went wrong
Our love is like a song
But you wont sing along
You've forgotten about us

Shane gave a sympathetic to the back of Mitchie's head before throwing a paper airplane at her head. He immediately ran away before she could say, "Ow." She turned around and looked behind the bushes but saw that no one was there. Mitchie picked up and read what the paper airplane said. She was shocked and somewhat satisfied with what it said. The message was:

I never forgot about you Mitchie Torres and I never will.

Mitchie walked up to Shane's locker and shoved the unfolded paper airplane into his chest. He took his head out of his locker and just looked at her. Mitchie spat coldly, "Okay, what's with this?"

"What are you talking about?" Shane lied.

"You know what I'm talking, whatever your name is. You followed me and heard me sing. And this isn't the first time."

Shane smirked. "So you do remember."

"No, actually I don't." Mitchie looked down at her feet. "Some of my memories come back in flashes, like when I was looking at some pictures. The first thing that came back was this memory, no actually two memories. The first one was both of us talking like in a dressing room. And we were talking about finding 'the voice' and something about a canoe ride. The other one was you explaining to me about when you first heard me sing This Is Me with the piano."

"Look, Mitchie, all I want to do right now is help you. All I care about—"

"Probably just some other girl," Mitchie muttered but Shane heard her.

"No, all I care about is you Mitchie. And I'm gonna help you in any way possible."

"Okay then. Well, do you have any ideas?"

Shane smirked once again. "Well..." Mitchie patiently waited for an answer but instead, Shane swiftly but softly placed his lips on Mitchie's.

I'll have the next chapter up in an hour or so. Review please!
