A week had elapsed since my stay at Camp Rock. Nate had recovered from his injuries from Hannah's punch and banging his head. Meanwhile, I had learned a lot of new song styles and had finally able to overcome my stage fright and I had performed three times in front of the class. Hannah was an instructor too. She had started her first class with us by singing her latest song 'Let's Get Crazy'. She asked Tess and me to sing with her. Brown, who now had taken upon himself to supervise every class which didn't clash with his own classes, complimented us and told us to definitely sing a song at the Camp Fire Jam. Last year I had sung background vocals, but this year I get to sing lead! I was so excited. Even Mikayla was very impressed with me. She told me that I would be releasing a record by the end of the year. Wow! That was a mouthful of compliments for a person like her - Tess said that. Shane reprised his role at Camp Rock as a dance instructor. Nate and Jason taught us to play various instruments like the saxophone, trumpet, clarinet, and violin. Lucky for me, I knew how to play all of them.
One day when I was leaving Hannah's class, I received a text from Shane. It read, Have you sat in front of the lake at night? I replied no. Then he sent me - Come and meet me at the west part of the lake tonight at 7. I smiled at my phone's screen and put it back inside my jeans' pocket. Then, I went up the pathway which led to Cabin Vibe. When I entered the cabin, I saw it was unoccupied. But somebody was probably in the bathroom because the door was closed. I dumped my backpack and purse on my bed and opened my laptop. I tried to connect it to the internet but it kept on refusing. "Dang it!" I muttered. I opened my iTunes, put on my headphones, selected the songs I wanted to listen to, leaned against the headboard on my bed and started listening to the songs. I was halfway through listening to A Little Bit Longer by the Connect 3 when the bathroom opened and a girl came out. She was wearing Hannah's clothes. When she saw me, she immediately put her head down and rushed out of the cabin. "Hey!" I called as I put down my headphones and ran after. I chased her through the pathway but lost her in front of Mikayla's cabin. I got back to my cabin wondering who that girl was. She was wearing Hannah's clothes. She must've stolen them. But why? When I returned to the cabin, I saw Tess sprawled on her bed with her hands pressed against her eyes. She was probably sleeping. So, I silently closed the cabin door and sat on my bed. I was again listening to songs but again halfway through listening to Like Whoa by Aly & AJ, I saw Hannah entering the cabin wearing the very same clothes the girl wore when she came out of the bathroom. Tess sat up on her bed. She nodded towards Hannah who smiled back.
"There was a brunette girl here earlier who was wearing the exact same clothes you're wearing Hannah!" I exclaimed. I saw all the color drain from Hannah's face. She looked at me with scared eyes. Meanwhile, Tess got out of the bed and whispered some things in Hannah's ear. What the heck was going on here? I wanted to ask.
"Nobody has worn these clothes except me!" Hannah said. I said, "No, really. That girl was wearing the same thing – yellow button-down blouse and navy blue skinny jeans. I swear!" But Hannah shook her said and told me, "You're just seeing things. It never happened." But I didn't believe her. So she said, "Okay, I was – uh – wearing a wet brown wig." She looked at me to see if I was buying her story or not. I didn't say anything because I didn't want to press the subject. So, to change the subject I said, "Hey do you know that we're having Moroccan chicken for dinner tonight?" Actually I wasn't having that that night, they were. I was going on a date with Shane. But I wasn't going to tell them that.
"Yum, I love that." Hannah said relieved that I finally changed the subject, "I know it's gonna be really good because, hey, your mom's an awesome chef."
At five to seven, I made my way to the west part of the lake. I wore a sweatshirt and a pair of jeans. My attire couldn't get more romantic! When I came near to the lake, I saw two lanterns placed on the bench in front of the lake and Shane standing on a table cloth arranging food boxes. He didn't notice me at all. So, I crept behind me and shouted, "Boo!" He dropped the box of carrots and shrieked like a girl. Then he turned around and saw me. "Very funny!" He muttered. I laughed and grabbed the box which contained Mom's delicious roast chicken. So, he had asked Mom to make the food for our date. He smiled at me when we sat down to eat. We started to eat the salad.
"So, how does it feel?" Shane asked me as I devoured the spaghetti. "Sitting in front of the lake in the moonlight on a date with a pop star?"
"Not different at all … Although I'm a bit worried." Shane frowned. "Paparazzi. When they jump out of the bushes and take pictures of us and tomorrow's headline in every magazine would be Shane Grey Finds Love At Camp! Shane laughed. I love it when he laughs. He looks so adorable.
When I finished the spaghetti, he got up and outstretched his arms. "Mitchie Torres, you have been the highlight of my stay at Camp Rock. I like you a lot."
"How much do you like me?" Shane went backwards outstretching his hands wider and wider. He tripped on a rock and tumbled in to the water of the lake. I laughed at him as he swam back to the ground. Somebody noticed him falling in to the lake and came to rescue him. I saw that it was Jason. He stretched his hand so that Shane could hold it. Shane grabbed his hand and got up from the water. He was dripping wet. Meanwhile, Nate and Hannah also noticed the incident and came to his rescue. When they saw our food, they grabbed a plastic plate and dumped the food on it and started to eat. I checked my watch and saw that it was only 7:20. Dinner wasn't going to be served for another 10 minutes. Before I knew it the whole camp was eating out there. Mom and the kitchen staff came to the place holding the pots and pans which contained the camp's dinner. Thus my first date turned in to The Lake Side Night at Camp Rock or so Brown Cesario called it.
So, here it is another chappie. It's a bit short. I think there's one error. I'm gonna edit that tomorrow. Tomorrow's gonna be gre - wait for it - at. I'm finally getting a Taylor Swift album! Hurray!
Goodnight,
Sourjya :]
