"Well, of course we have to invite Caitlyn and Ella and Peggy!" Mitchie Torres flipped her long brown pony tail over her shoulder, bit the end of her pencil and frowned. "Should we invite boys?"
Mitchie's best friend, Alex Russo giggled. Both were sitting in Mitchie's bedroom. An only child, Mitchie had the quietest house of the two, and they needed plenty of peace and quiet to plan Mitchie's 17th birthday party. They had started right after school, and they still weren't done!
"We can't just invite boys, Mitchie!" Alex pointed out. "Though, come to think of it, that's not a bad idea." Her dark brown eyes shone as she grinned. "What about, Shane?"
Mitchie looked down.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to…" Alex said, trailing off.
"It's okay." I said, giving Alex a smile. "Anyway, should we invite Tess?" Alex asked, changing the topic.
"WE ARE NOT INVITING TESS TYLER AND WE ARE SO NOT INVITING GIGI COLLINS!" Mitchie declared. "We don't need a bunch of mean, stuck-up snobs here in your party."
"But if we invite them, more people will come!" Alex argued. "Inviting them might make the difference between success and disaster."
"Well, I don't think we need them," Mitchie said. "Besides, if we invite them, people will be concentrating in them instead of me!"
"I guess you're right." Alex smiled and clasped her hands together. "Isn't this just so majorly exciting?"
"Majorly…" Mitchie sighed in agreement. I just wish Shane were here. Mitchie thought to herself. She closed her eyes and pictured Shane and her at her first party. She was wearing a flowing black silk gown and she was dancing with Shane in the middle of the dance floor.
In Mitchie's fantasy she gave a tinkling, silvery laugh and Shane looked deep into her eyes. He took one of her diamond-ringed hands in his and raised it to his…
"Taco chips," Alex said, breaking into her thoughts, "Everybody likes those. And maybe we should serve some of those little frankfurters wrapped in dough. What do you call those things?"
"Pigs in blanket" Mitchie told her. "My mom knows a really easy recipe for those, but you have to eat them up at the last minute."
"Okay then! So, is this everything we need for the party?" Alex asked, tapping her pencil to the pad of paper.
"Definitely," Mitchie said firmly. "We are definitely having this party. My house, next Saturday night, rain or shine. And, now that that's settled, all we have to do is start calling!"
At exactly 12 midnight, Mitchie opened a box with the words "Memories with Shane" written in it.
"Happy 3rd Anniversary Shane." She whispered as a tear fell from her eyes. She opened the box and took out some of the things Shane gave her. There was this pink and fluffy teddy bear which Shane gave when they had their first monthsary. There was also this scrapbook which Shane made for her during her 16th birthday. Mitchie smiled to herself as she took out the pile of letters tied together with a pink string. She untied the string and began reading the letters.

Hey there, my love. Happy 1st Anniversary. I'm so glad we made it this far! :)
Anyway, always remember that SHANE will always be here for MITCHIE. And without Mitchie, there is definitely no Shane.
I love you so much, my beautiful Mitchie.
-Shane-
More tears fell from Mitchie's eyes as she read the next letter...

Mitchaaay! Hahaha. Nah, Mitchie sounds better.
I love you, Mitch. :-*
-Shane-
Mitchie laughed as she wiped her tears. She placed the other letters aside and took out an envelope. She opened it and took out the pictures she and Shane took during their first summer together in Malibu. She laughed once she saw the picture where in Shane carried her to the beach and Mitchie was trying to get away from him but he was too strong. Oh, how she missed Shane. Mitchie began to cry again... She just couldn't believe they were over. Mitchie and Shane had one of the strongest relationship here on earth. Mitchie placed back everything inside the box and went to bed.
Wew! Do you guys like it? :D I'm really not good at this. Haha. :) Please do comment. :)
