Disclaimer: Don't own Camp Rock. Sorry to disappoint ):

A/N: Ok, so first off, I need to start with a HUUGGGEEEE apology. This chapter was supposed to go up days ago but I'm in the midst of moving housies so it's been a hectic couple o' days, not yet over ): Erm.. so here's the next chapter. I won't tell you who the female character is just yet so you'd have to keep reading to find out ;D Haha, I joke. Confession? I'm not sure who she is yet.. Perhaps she's Mitchie.. perhaps she's not.. perhaps she will foreverly remain anonnymous.. :P Ok, so I'm just teasing. The female character in both chapter one and this chapter are the same person; Mitchie. And the male characters are both the same; Shane. So read this and tell me what you think? Thank you for all you reviewers out there. Seriously, hugs to you all. This chappy goes out to y'all and please keep reviewing. Tell me what you think (:

It was never easy being the new kid. You would think that after 6 moves, 6 different schools, she was used to it. But with each move, it just seemed harder to let go, although, she refused to let others see it. She was always all smiles. Being guarded, she thought, was a bit too dramatic and bitter for her liking. Well, not exactly, see, she thought that if you appeared to be a careful approach and too up-tight then it's easier for others to detect a change of something wrong in your happy land but if you were always cheery, always full of life, then no one will ever know anything (or so she thought). She believed it to be the best. But being the little girl full of buzz started to die out as she hit the 7th move. She was bored and tired of everything. If this was life; the constant running, the constant hiding, the constant change, then life was shit. So, she clammed up. Sure, she was still a perky one, but it was all more than fake; the smiles, the comments, but she couldn't help it; it was all she could do to stop herself from breaking down.

Moretta High was the name of this new school. She was surprised to find herself here; it was one of, if not the most decent comprehensive schools in the country and with her given academic history, she didn't recall deserving a place at such a school, but hey, here she was; Monday morning, late and completely lost.

In a complete mess with her bag falling off her shoulder, her hair coming undone from her neat bun and her lack of map reading skills, she was having great difficulty finding her first class. Block 16, room 15 was the location she needed to be at. She had no idea where she was and was in desperate need of coffee. Panting, she leant up against a wall. The corridor was empty which must've meant she was really late. But she'd just about given up as she pressed her back against the wall and slid down it. She was too busy cursing herself that she didn't realize that someone was coming towards her until they tripped over her. She opened her eyes and looked up.

It was a tall guy, same uniform as hers, just the male version, with his own added twist of a scruffy and neat appearance. He had converses on, headphones too.

'Sorry,' he offered her a hand, 'didn't see you there.'

She didn't take his hand but instead got up herself, and not wanting to appear rude said, 'No, don't be; I'm sorry, are you alright?' She noted and was grateful that there was no bitterness in her tone but a small degree of genuine concern. He laughed.

'I haven't seen you around here.'

'New girl.'

'Ahh, I see. Lost are we?' He smiled gently as she nodded. 'Let's see your schedule… hmm… block 16, room 15 – end of the corridor, turn right, go up two flight of stairs, turn left and down the corridor, room on the far left.' He smiled again as she stuck the tip of her finger in her mouth and mentally recited all the directions over. He laughed. She liked his laugh but was confused as to why he was laughing. She cocked her head to one side, a crease forming between her eyebrows.

'What's funny?' she asked, hesitantly.

'You're cute,' he stated. She felt her face flush and turned away from him. She didn't know how to respond. What could she say back? Thanks? You're not so bad yourself? But she hadn't actually looked at him properly yet, just his clothes. She thought she should respond with a 'thanks' but by the time she looked up again, he was already gone…

Huh, that was weird, she thought to herself as she made her way to her lesson only turning up fifteen minutes late; her teacher, a small man was livid. Oh hi me, great first impression on your class, me, She cursed herself.

Moretta High was a living nightmare. By the end of the first day, she already knew that she wasn't academically capable to scrape by at a school like this. And it didn't help that she had to join the school so late on in the year. Everyone was well acquainted with everyone else and she was a total outcast. They were all, very polite of course, she got a few 'hellos' and 'new girl, right? Cool.' But apart from that, she had no friend. She knew it was for the best really, she was probably going to move again quite soon, so no point in settling in, right?

She thought the homework load on the first day was hell already, but by the end of the week, all the assignments piled on top of her desk were a headache to even look at. And by the end of the first week, she still had no friends. It's a good thing she kept reassuring herself but isn't self reassurance one of the major forms of deception?

The week was long and she was so glad that the weekend had finally arrived. She didn't know what she was going to do; where she was going to go. She was new here, not only at the school, but at the place. It was lovely weather; she wasn't prepared to waste the weather by hiding indoors. She was going out, whether they liked it or not, they have no say.

Catching the fist bus that came by, she leant her head against the window and closed her eyes.

A/N: Ok, so what the hell is going on in this chapter? Well whaddya think? :P Tell me if you like the writing style. Sorry I haven't really plunged into the story yet; still at slow introductions. Just wanna build you guys up for the drama up ahead ;D Hows the length of this chapter? Is it still uber short? I'll try and extend them if they are. And yeah, don't give up on me, I'm still going but no promises on updates ridiculously soon; in the midst of moving house, remember? Anyways, hope you guys enjoyed that, please review? You'll make my day (:

Anyways, hows your day going?
Over and out,
Ellieeeeeee x3
