Chapter six-
"Dude just wake her up," "No just leave her alone she had a rough night!" "And whose fault is that?" Mitchie was only half conscience by this point but she heard some arguing going on around her. Mitchie opened her eyes and looked down at herself she was in one of Shane's shirts and she smelt like crap. "Look what you did dude!" Shane said punching Nate. Mitchie was completely confused and felt like she had been run down by a truck. "How are you feeling?" Shane asked putting his hand on her head. Mitchie could barely speak she just sat there staring at Shane. "What?" She asked when she was finally able to say something.
All of a sudden Mitchie thought back to last night and of the bits and pieces she remembered she became really embarrassed. "Oh my God!" She said sitting up, "I am so sorry," she said hugging Shane. "Mitchie its fine," he said rubbing her back. "What happened?" She asked. "You probably don't want to know," he said. Mitchie looked at him begging with her eyes to tell her what happened. "Okay, well you drank about as much as I did, which all things considered was probably not a good thing, but by the time I realized it was too late." "So after the jagerbomb you pretty much turned around and threw up on Chelsea's shoes and when I tried to tell you that you had enough to drink you told me I wasn't your dad and you took another shot." "You went back out onto the dance floor and tried to dance with Jason which was pretty funny until you threw up on the floor." By this point Mitchie had buried her head into the pillow. Ashley took you into the bathroom where you threw up again, and then when she tried to take you back out to me you passed out by the bathroom." Shane started to laugh. "Shane, that's not funny!" She yelled.
"Last night it wasn't funny, I was really worried about you," He said climbing onto her bed. "Mitchie I had to carry you back to the tour bus and I stayed up all night making sure that you were okay," he said, "But now that I know that you are okay and thinking back to you dancing with Jason I can't help but laugh." Mitchie layed down in his lap. "I feel like I am going to die." She said almost in tears. "Well this should help," Nate said bringing her some Advil and a cup of water. "I'm sorry," Mitchie said. "For what?" Nate asked, "Trust me you are not the only one to ever get so drunk you throw up and pass out he said looking at Shane. "But I hate to make things worse but we have a sound check in two hours so you need to get up." Nate said walking away. Mitchie buried her head into Shane's lap and started to cry. Her head felt like it was going to explode and she was going to have to sing in front of a million people tonight.
"Mitchie it is totally fine sweetheart, people make mistakes just know not to do it again," he said caressing the back of her head. "Come on Mitchie you might want to take a shower, before the sound check we have to go over our outfits with the stylist," Peggy said. Mitchie lifted her head and it felt like it weighed a million pounds. Shane jumped off her bed and helped her down and over to the shower. "You'll be fine just sit down and relax a shower always makes me feel better," Shane said kissing her forehead.
Mitchie dragged herself into the shower and sat down still completely embarrassed by the night before. This is not the way I want to start off this tour Mitchie thought to herself. Mitchie was so
nervous for tonight now she could barley lift her head, her voice was sore and she was extremely tired. In any normal circumstance Mitchie would been freaking out by now but now with her first hangover and the embarrassment of last night hanging over her head the little butterflies in her stomach have now tripled in size and were making her stomach turn. She felt like she was going to be sick again, when she was done with her shower she went straight to the toilet and vomited afterward she started to feel a little bit better.
She came out of the bathroom and Shane handed her a cup of coffee. "Alright babe, you and Peggy are going off with Melanie and the stylist so you can try on outfits and what not," Shane said. "And then you guys are going to meet us at the sound check." Mitchie buried her head in Shane's chest and he leaned down to kiss her forehead. Melanie got on the bus, "Alright guys pack up your stuff we are staying in a hotel tonight, just leave your bags here and Chris and Rob will take them up to the rooms later. "Now Mitchie and Peggy come with me to meet your stylist so we can figure out what you guys will wear tonight," Mitchie kissed Shane on the cheek before dragging her herself off the bus.
"Alright Mitchie this is your dressing room make yourself comfortable there's some food and coffee over there if you want some and your stylist will be in soon," Melanie said opening the door to Mitchie's dressing room. "Now Peggy you follow me, your room is this way." The two of them left and Mitchie had a look around the room wasn't as glamorous as she had thought but at this point all that mattered was the couch was comfortable. Mitchie sat down and put her head on the pillow her head still felt like a million pounds but luckily her nausea had finally gone away. Just as she closed her eyes there was a knock at the door. Mitchie immediately perked up not wanting anyone to know that she was hung over. "Hello Mitchie Torres, I'm Alice your stylist it is a pleasure to meet you, my kids think you are great!" She said sticking her hand out to shake Mitchie's. "Nice to meet you how do they know who I am?" Mitchie asked confused.
"You didn't know the label aired the footage of you and Shane's duet and Peggy's song so people would know of you and Peggy before the show." Alice explained. "Alright let's start picking out some clothes for you to wear." Alice started rummaging through the clothes rack, "How about this," she said handing Mitchie a light blue button down with a yellow dress to put over it and pink leggings. Mitchie quickly changed and turned around to show Alice, "You look beautiful, here put these heels on and I think we have your first outfit!" She exclaimed. "As for the outfit you will wear to come out for the finale how about something simple like these jeans and this black and white tee-shirt?" Alice asked. Mitchie nodded, "Are you sure you are the one who has to wear this not me?" Alice asked. "It looks great Alice really this was a lot simpler then I had anticipated." Mitchie laughed throwing on the jeans and t-shirt. Mitchie felt stunning in both of the outfits and she was finally getting the confidence she needed and was beginning to feel better.
Suddenly there was a knock at the door, but before either one of them could answer a girl barged in, "Aunt Alice Chris needs you to help Shane apparently his stylist is an idiot and he is demanding you come help," said the girl who walked in. Mitchie recognized her from the night before it was Chelsea the girl who was rude to her. "Mitchie this is my niece Chelsea, Chel stay with her while I go fix this problem," Alice said closing the door behind her.
"Hi," Mitchie said politely. "You're looking better," Chelsea snapped. Mitchie turned red, "Yeah I am really sorry about last night okay I don't even remember," she tried to explain. "I bet you don't." Mitchie rolled her eyes, "Did I do something to you?" Mitchie asked with an attitude. "Besides throwing up on me no you didn't do anything to me I am just cranky and stressed live shows are always so busy." But before Chelsea could finish Mitchie cut her off, "What do you mean?" Mitchie asked confused. "Oh I am an assistant at the label mostly to Chris you know just in case acting on Disney doesn't work out I have an in at the label," Mitchie was confused and didn't care about the fact that she works for the label, "No I mean what do you mean by live show?" Mitchie asked really concerned. "Well not really live they are recording the show tonight and airing it on hot tunes you know for the press and what not," Mitchie's face turned bright red and she began to get nervous again she walked over to the table to grab a cup cake. "Oh crap Shane told me not to say anything until after the show and I forgot; I am so sorry forget I said anything." Mitchie got really angry, "Forget you said anything! How could I forget and you told me on purpose," Mitchie yelled. "Oh stop I did not look you're not the only one who is nervous," Chelsea said half laughing. "Now calm down and I wouldn't eat that if I was you the camera adds an extra ten pounds and trust me those are ten pounds you don't need," Chelsea said opening the door and giving Mitchie a nasty look before leaving.
"Alright Mitchie I think your outfits are set so just get changed and I will have these steamed and ready for tonight," Alice said coming back in the room. Mitchie's mind was racing her heart was beating so fast she thought it was going to explode. "Mitchie are you okay?" Peggy asked concerned at how pale Mitchie looked. Instead of answering Mitchie fell to the floor, "Mitchie!" Peggy yelled, "Shane come here quickly," she yelled over to Shane. Shane raced over, "hey Mitchie hey look at me what's wrong?" "Do you need some water, Jason get water!" He yelled really concerned. Mitchie's panic attack ended, "No don't I'm fine just nervous and tired, I'm sorry." Mitchie said as she began to get up but before she could do it by herself Shane picked her up and took her into his dressing room. "Do Peggy's sound check first," he said to Jason before closing the door.
"Mitchie are you sure you are okay, I know you are hung over but you don't look good," Shane asked concerned. "No I'm fine just really nervous I mean outside of final jam I have never sung in front of a live crowd before and I don't want to mess up." Shane pulled her over into a big hug, "you are so talented and I know you are going to do great, I will be backstage the whole time if you ever get nervous just look over and sing to me," Mitchie smiled and was even going to bring up her saying I love you to Shane last night but decided to wait until the time was right.
The sound check didn't go as well as Mitchie hoped but Shane and the agents thought she did great for a first run through. Mitchie was trying to get over the fact that she thought her voice still sounded scratchy. The rest of the day was so stressful though she didn't even have time to be nervous anymore. By the time her nerves set back in the stadium started to become crowded with people and the lights began to dim. Connect three ran out onto the stage, "Thank you Orlando!" Shane screamed. "Alright guys we have a great show for you tonight and first we would like to introduce our friend and winner of the final jam at Camp Rock Peggy Richards!" Nate yelled, "Wish me luck," Peggy said looking at Mitchie before going out on stage.
Mitchie watched from the side amazed at how awesome Peggy was doing. Shane stood there holding Mitchie's hand and as every song Peggy sung passed meant it was closer to Mitchie's turn to go and the more nervous she got. "You are going to be amazing," Shane said kissing her cheek and then walking out onto the stage with his band mates. "Alright guys give it up for Peggy!" Nate yelled, "Wasn't she great," Jason said giving her a hug. "This next girl is really amazing and extremely special, and she was also discovered at camp rock," Shane said. "Alright guys put your hands together for Mitchie Torres!" Mitchie closed her eyes and took a deep breath this was it and she walked out onto the stage.
A/N- Just to respond to Mira94, and I wanted to hear from all of you with your thoughts on this. I know it's a little out of character for them to be going out and getting drunk and what not and I am sure they aren't like that in real life. But the plot line is revolved around how the rock and roll lifestyle may be to much for Mitchie to handle and there are going to be themes of alcohol and mentions of drugs and other things but don't worry I would never want to place Mitchie in a bad light and I am trying hard not to. I understand anyones concerns about how she would be portrayed but trust me it's all building up to the idea I have for the ending and it will be a good one and she will most defiantly be portrayed in the best way possible. Let me know what you think though about the plot line.
