A/N- hey guys I have been having some writers block but I made this chapter pretty long to make up for how long it took. If you guys could leave me some ideas of what you want me to write that would be great! Anyway we left off with the five of them going into the studio and starting the tour. So here you go!
Chapter five-
The next few weeks were a blur for both Mitchie and Shane. Mr. Grey had approved a few of Mitchie's songs for the tour. Recording was difficult at first but Shane was there to coach her through it all. Shane was a lot happier as well connect threes songs were coming out better than ever. With the recording wrapper up and everything all five of the kids were wiped out. They had been singing their brains out all day for the past two weeks and with the "This is me" concert C.D. ready to hit the stores it was time for them to hit the road.
Mitchie and Shane's relationship had grown so much over the weeks of recording. They both leaned on each other for help with music, friends and family. With Mitchie's music going so well the hostility between Shane and his father had died down a little but Shane was still on edge around his father because he wasn't sure how much he could trust him.
The five of them piled back on to the tour bus and finally get settled in for real. "Alright guys we are going to kick the tour off right here in Florida. Tonight you are performing in Disney world and tomorrow then down to Fort Lauderdale to play a stadium down there. Then you have a day to relax and then we fly to Texas. You are all scheduled for a CD signing at the mall though in about two hours so we need you all to get into hair and make-up now. We are a little crunched for time so we need you guys to move!" Melanie explained. "I am so tired!" Mitchie exclaimed. "Yeah get used to it," Jason snapped. Shane gave him the death glare, "Sorry Mitchie, I'm just cranky" Jason said.
"Well at least there is a party tonight, me and Shane's friend David who is on the Disney channel wants to see us while we are here." Nate said looking down at his phone. "We should meet him at this night club around 10:00, it will be fun!" Nate yelled. "I don't know," Peggy said, "I mean we have our first show tomorrow is that really the best idea?" She asked. "Shane you know you want to go!" Jason said really excited. "Yeah definitely," He said giving his band mate a high five. "Mitchie are you going to come?" Nate asked. Mitchie wasn't really into it she had never really been to a night club before but she sure as hell didn't want her boyfriend going without her. "Yeah of course," Mitchie said trying to play it cool.
"Alright then it's settled!" Nate said picking his phone up and going to the back room to call his friend. Shane gave Mitchie a weird look, "Are you sure you want to go?" He asked "I mean its going to be pretty intense." "And you don't think I can handle it?" She asked. "Well do you do this kind of thing?" Shane asked. Mitchie assumed that Shane was referring to the more intense part of the celebrity life, drinking and drugs and what not. Well of course Mitchie had never really done any of that, but how would Shane know and she wanted to be able to keep up with Shane's lifestyle. "Of course I've been to clubs and stuff before," Mitchie said.
They tour bus pulled up to the mall and they all piled off the bus into a crowd of raging fans screaming the boys names. The CD signing continued on with girls screaming out Shane, Nate and Jason's names a lot of the fans weren't really sure who Peggy and Mitchie were yet so they felt pretty out of place. Every once in a while though some older brother of a connect three fan would comment on how beautiful Mitchie was which boosted her self esteem. She couldn't help it girls were falling all over Shane and not just young five year olds but there were kids their age as well. She really couldn't wait for the singing to be over so after a couple of hours the mall had cleared out and it was finally time for them to get ready to go out.
That night Mitchie was so nervous Peggy had opted not to go because of the show the next day and she didn't want to screw anything up with being out late. Mitchie was jealous that Peggy had the option to stay in because she knew that this could be a bad idea but at the same time she wanted to be able to keep up with Shane's lifestyle. Mitchie pulled out this tight halter black dress she bought a million years ago but never actually decided to wear. She did that thing where she stares at the mirror forever evaluating her entire body and picking at all her flaws. She wasn't exactly pleased with herself but then she heard someone come up behind her, "Wow!" Shane said completely stunned by how beautiful she looked. "Really are you sure?" Mitchie said self consciously. Before Shane could answer Jason barged in, "Yo Mitchie looks hot bro," he said to Shane.
Mitchie blushed, "There's your answer," Shane said throwing his arms around her. Jason took the hint and walked away. "You look so hot," Shane whispered before kissing her neck, "every girl is going to be so jealous of you." Shane kissed her cheek, "are you sure you want to go?" He asked seductively raising one of his eyebrows. Mitchie was positive she didn't want to go but she knew that they had to, "Of course Shane we have to go your friends are counting on you to be there and besides its not like we will be alone here anyway Peggy is here." Mitchie said. Shane looked disappointed but knew she was right.
Mitchie threw on some heels and some perfume and the four of them got off the bus and into the limo waiting for them. Inside the limo were David, Chelsea and Ashley all people that Mitchie had recognized from different TV shows and music videos. They were all super excited to see connect three especially Chelsea Mitchie could tell by the look she got from her when she got into the limo that this girl had a special interest in Shane. Shane probably already knew that though because he pulled Mitchie close to him and kissed her before introducing her to everyone in the limo.
When they pulled up outside the night club and got out Mitchie was almost blinded by the flashes, photographers were everywhere screaming their names. "Shane! Who is that girl?" One reporter asked, "Are you two dating?," screamed another. Mitchie couldn't believe how much attention she was getting. "Just ignore them," Shane said taking her hand and escorting her into the club.
Mitchie could barley here herself think when they got inside the music was so loud and the lights kept flashing she could barely see. "Alright guy's first round is on me!" David yelled heading for the bar. "You don't have to drink if you don't want to," Shane said to Mitchie. "No I want to don't even worry," She said trying to be confident. David came back with the bartended and a tray of shots.
Everyone picked one up and the smell of the shot was just enough to make Mitchie puke she was afraid of how it was going to taste. "Tequila?" Jason said smelling the shot, "Dude we have a show tomorrow," He said to Shane. But Shane was already pouring the shot down his throat; Jason rolled his eyes and did the same. Suddenly everyone's eyes were on Mitchie, "What's the matter the little baby afraid?" Chelsea said mocking Mitchie. Shane gave her the death stare and when he looked back Mitchie had downed the shot and even though no one else noticed she was about ready to vomit.
Yet once the burning sensation went down it was time to drink some more. After three more shots and a couple of drinks everything went a little fuzzy. Her and Shane were dancing all night and drinks just kept coming her way. Since Mitchie had never drank before she continued to drink with Shane not even realizing he probably had a higher tolerance then her. "I- I- I love you," Mitchie slurred out to Shane in the middle of the dance floor. Shane looked at her and smiled, "Mitchie your drunk," he said. "Nahhhh," she said laughing. Chelsea pulled Shane and Mitchie off the dance floor and over to the bar, "these are for you two," she said pointing to the jagerbombs on the bar counted. Before Shane could stop Mitchie though she downed the entire drink. "Mitchie that probably wasn't a good idea," but before she had time to respond everything in Mitchie's mind went black.
