Tarantula's second chapter, ~ Mitchie's POV : .net/s/5217379/2/Lets_Make_Music_of_Our_Magical_Love

Alex' POV

I glanced between the two women again as my mom slowly closed her jaw while her mind

caught up with her words. She turned towards me and Mitchie while she said, 'Okay, who put this mirror in the door? This isn't funny, girls!'

I looked at Mitchie while she shook her head as her eyes stayed on my mom and the other woman. Then I turned back towards my mother,

'Why the hell do you ask me that? I wouldn – Oh psh, yeah, that's totally something I would do.' I chuckled to myself, completely changing my sentence. Realising there was indeed no mirror between the two, I walked up towards the door and hesitently poked te look-a-like in the stomach.

I squeacked, 'Oh my Gosh! This is real!'

'Mum?' Mitchie said to the woman in the doorframe, who looked at her, her face paralyzed with shok. 'Is that really you?' She nodded at the question and then I saw Mitchie turning towards my mother, mouth wide open, but nothing coming out.

'Okay, wait a second.' I said, stepping in between the two older women. I took their hand and walked them towards the couch, pushing them both on it before standing in front of them. 'Who of you is her mother and who of you is mine?'

'I'm more concerned with the fact there are two of them!' Mitchie basically yelled into my ear. 'Maybe one of them is a clone!'

'How is that even possible?' I argued. Okay, I knew it was possible, because there's a duplication spell, but my mom's not even a wizard so there's no way in hell she would be able to do that! Unless Justin or Max is playing a sick joke on us... Well, only one way to find out. 'Wait, I know how to see which one is my mom.' I ran towards the lamp on the desk and pushed it off.

The left one suddenly shot up with an angry look on her face, 'The lamp!'

At the same time, the right one shot up with an equal look on her face, surprising both me and Mitchie. 'Why did you break the lamp? It was a really nice lamp!'

'That didn't work,' Mitchie commented. Gee, you think? I wanted to comment on that, but instead I fucused back on the two persons in front of us.

'Seriously?' I yelled at them, getting more confused with every minute that passed.

'Maybe we should have them cook burgers!' Mitchie said, pointing at the two. 'My mum is an amazing cook!'

'Burgers? Really now?' I asked, thinking over the idea. On second thought, it wasn't such a bad idea, my mother couldn't bake burgers at all. Hell, I would be happy if her macaroni was good for once. I nodded, showing my agreement, 'Actually, that's a pretty good idea. I'm kinda hungry right now.'
I took Mitchie's hand, getting that warm tingly feeling again, and led her to the counter. I sat down on one of the stools, waiting for the two women to get started.

I watched as the look-a-likes went to the same cupboards, pulling out the food, surprising us even more. How the hell could they both know where everything was?

I was getting tired of the confusion and just sighed, 'This is not helping. Mom!'

'Yeah?' The left woman answered.
'Finally,' I said, pulling mom next to me. 'Would someone care to explain what the hell is going on?'

Mitchie looked at her mother and I could see her eyes asking the same question, but the right woman just stared back at her, lost for words.

'Well, I haven't seen this woman before,' My mother answered instead of the clone, as I would like to call her until I get her name.

'Are you sure you don't see her every time you look in the mirror?' I questioned, raising my hands up to give some more expression to my comment. I don't know why, but I quickly winked at Mitchie. Maybe because I wanted to let her know it was a joke?

I realised it was a bad thing to do, because she just looked away. After a while, she looked back at her mother, 'Were you adopted or something, mum?'

I could see the clone looking back at Mitchie sadly and nodded.

I looked at her before turning towards my own mother. 'Mom, what the hell is going on?'

She sighed before glancing towards the clone. 'Maybe we should tell them?'

'Wait!' Mitchie said as I glared at her. They were going to tell us what was going on and now she's asking them to wait? 'What? Tell who what?'

Why did she even asked them to wait as she just asked the thing they were going to tell us? I shook my head as I heard my mother sighing, 'You wanna tell them or shall I?'

The clone sighed, finally giving in, 'When we were four, our parents died in a car crash. We survived by a miracle! But we had no other family so we were put into car,' I gulped at the explanation as she continued, 'And seperated. But when we came down last week to prepare for you concert, Mitchie, I ran into Theresa...'

My jaw dropped. Yes, again, don't act so surprised! 'Mom? Is this true?' My voice was so low that I was even surprised my mom had heard me and she merely nodded. Then it was as if something clicked in my head as finally, the last words of the clone sank into my mind. 'Wait, what concert? Mitchie?'

She took a deep breath before she suddenly started to sing,

Before I fall

Too fast

Kiss me quick

But make it last

So I can see how badly this will hurt me

When you say goodbye

I looked at Mitchie, eyes wide open. 'You... You're that girl! From the concert! You! ... Wow!' That was literally everything I could get out. I can not believe I didn't see this before. Why the hell didn't I see this? The concert was so great and she's been in front of me the whole damn time! I gather my brains together before I start to speak again, 'I had a feeling at the concert that I really liked, no wonder I had that same feeling again at the alleyway when we met!' Great, now I could kick myself in the head for being so honest!

I saw a bright color of red creeping on Mitchie's face before she pointed out, 'You're my cousin!'

My eyes grew even wider, if even possible. Not because she randomly changed the subject, but because she just pointed out what I didn't see before. Cousins... A sudden raise of anger started to take me over as I turned towards my mother and the clone before starting to yell, 'Why the hell did you keep something like that?!'

I can tell mom was taken back by the sudden raise in my voice and she saw the tears that started to appear in my eyes.

'Alex,' I heard Mitchie say. 'It's OK.' I felt her hand sneaking in mine and I couldn't help to give a small smile when I felt that. I allowed her to touch me, but when mom reached out for me, I pulled back.

'No! Don't you dare touch me after holding something back like that! I lived 17 years, without knowing your... your... twin sister! I didn't even know I had a cousin! You always tell me to say the truth and to always tell you everything... I can't believe you just broke your own rules.' With that, I pulled back from all of them and ran up to my room.

'I'll go after her,' I heard Mitchie say, right before I slammed the door closed.

There was a knock on my door and I didn't bother to look up or to say something. I hugged my pillow close to me and cried. Then, I heard someone slip in and that's when I looked up, even though I knew it was Mitchie.

'They only found out last week, y'know,' Mitchie reminded me. 'Maybe they were finding the right time to tell us?' I felt the weight shift on my bed as she sat down and looked into my eyes filled with tears.

'Their parents, well, our grandparents died when they were four. How can they not remember being seperated back then? Your mother knew they were put into care, so how the hell could they forget they had a twinsister?!' I whisper-yelled. I hoped it didn't sound angry, because I wans't exactly mad at Mitchie. How could I? She's done nothing wrong. I avoided looking into her eyes as I rested my head on my other pillow, allowing my long black hair to fall over my face.

'Maybe they asked our adoptive grandparents or somthing?' Mitchie said, shrugging her shoulders. A smile grew on her lips, 'I'm not sure, but look on the bright side!'

I thought about that for a second and I couldn't help but share her smile. 'I guess we're going to spend a lot more time together.' I sighed happily as I replaced the pillow for Mitchie's lap. Closing my eyes as I laid my head down on her lap, I felt content for the first time since that clone walked through the door. Damn it girl! What the hell are you doing to me?

I felt her fingers stroking my hair. How the heck did she know I calm down from that? I turned my head to look up into Mitchie's eyes and somehow, my heart fluttered.

I saw her smile again as she looked down at me, brushing her finger on my cheeck. I didn't know what I was feeling. Hell, I just met her today and I found out she was my cousin! This was totally wrong! But I also couldn't deny that there was something... Something about Mitchie made my heart jump and I only felt that way with Dean. I knew I was straight, but with Mitchie... I wasn't so sure.

As Mitchie's finger brushed my cheeck, I slowly turned my head and placed a kiss on her finger. The corners of my mouth turned upwards again before hugging Mitchie's waist, allowing my head to rest against her stomach. My tears were dried up, but as soon as I thought back about all the drama that had happened, new tears slowly found their way back to my eyes.

'Don't cry,' Mitchie whispered. There was a plea in her voice as she brushed my tears away. 'Tears don't suit you, Alex. Give me a smile.' She told me and I could see in her eyes that she was hoping she was saying the right things. To be honest, she was doing more right things than saying right things. 'Give me a beautiful smile.'

I couldn't help but smile widely at her words and burried my head in her stomach, trying to hide my red cheecks. Suddenly, I sat up and took her hand in my own. 'Look, there's something I need to tell you... I just, I can't explain it, but...' I took a deep breath, wanting to tell her how I felt about her, but I was too scared to continue. I was straight! I just met her today! She's my cousin, for crying out loud! I quickly changed my sentence, 'I'm really glad I get to spend more time with you.'

'I'm glad too. You can come to the concert tomorrow!' She continued to smile, a smile I wouldn't be able to get sick of even if I tried.

'I would love to.' I smiled back. Not being in controle of my own actions, I leaned forward and pressed a soft kiss against her cheeck. Her skin was so soft! Then, I intertwined my fingers with Mitchie's. 'Why don't we go downstairs and I can make us a sandwich?'

'Yeah, OK,' Mitchie nodded. 'But I'm not that hungry so I don't think I can eat a whole one.'

'We could always share?' I suggested. Geez! Stupid! Get your act together! 'You can also meet my dad, well, your uncle, because he's working at the shop.' I still found it a bit weird, but I was already getting used to the fact that she was my cousin. 'Max will probobly freak out when he hears this.'

'Yeah.. OK,' Mitchie agreed. 'Lets go!'

I grabbed her hand and led her down the stairs, ignoring the two woman in the livingroom. Descending the stairs, I let go of Mitchie's hand to go make the sandwich. Is it normal that I missed the warmth of her hand almost instantly?

'Dad?' I asked. Not receiving a reply, I got back to Mitchie with the sandwich and sat down at the table, sliding the other stool from the table a bit to motion for Mitchie to sit there. Dad walked in from the lair, the storage to most people, and came to me immediatly.

'Where have you been? I thought the concert didn't last that long.'

'Well, the concert's already over for an hour or so, but we were upstairs with the two versions of my mother.'

'Two?' Dad asked surprised. Okay, very surprised.

'Her mother is my mom's twin.' I informed him and without warning, he ran upstairs and came sprinting right back down.

'Theresa! Two! Mirror! Argh!' With that, he fell to the ground and Mitchie's jaw dropped, while I mostly looked unconcerned.

Max came running into the shop. 'What happened?'

'Mom has a twin.' I just shrugged.

'Sweet!' He yelled as he ran upstairs. Dad was already coming around as he followed Max upstairs, trying to figure it all out.

I hoped that Mitchie didn't want to go upstairs just yet, I wanted some time with her. 'Do you wanna go upstairs? Or just like, stay here and like, eat our sandwich?' My voice cracked at the second part, probobly betraying me.

She smiled at me before laughing, 'I wanna see how good you are with food. I wanna see if being good with food is in the family! We could start our own food place if my music career goes down the toilet.'

'Your career will not go down the toilet!' I quickly argued. 'You have such an amazing voice and I'm sure that the fans will never let you down. I can't wait for the concert tomorrow.' I took a knife and sliced the sandwich in two, biting down on one half.

Correct me if I'm wrong, wait scratch that, Mitchie just blushed. 'You think?' she asked, looking down at her half.

'I do.' I smiled before laughing, 'And I also think it's cute when you blush.' Dammit! I quickly snapped my mouth shut after that comment and went back to eating the sandwich.

'Thank you.' I heard her say.

I just sat there, but I couldn't eat the sandwich anymore. 'Gosh, I can't even eat this. It's like my breath is stuck in my throat.' I mentally kicked myself in the head, (how many times did I do that already?), for saying that out loud.

'I know the feeling,' Mitchie said, looking me straight in the eye. I knew it was just a simple movement. She was just sitting on my left and within arm reahch. I hesitently reached out my hand and trailed an invisible patter on her forearm, avoiding looking her in the eye. Then I did look in her eyes when she laced her fingers through mine. Girl, what are you doing to me? I stroke the back of her hand with my thumb.

I couldn't take it anymore and before I knew what I was doing I brought her hand towards my mouth and sweetly kissed her knuckles. Seeing her closing her eyes and sighing softly. She opened them again and looked into my eyes. I was getting more confident and slowly leaned in towards her face. I sighed contently as her eyes closed in anticipation. I could feel her warm breath against my lips as I slowly closed the gap between us and pushed my lips against Mitchie's.

'Mitchie?' someone yelled from the stairs and Mitchie pulled back at once, grabbed her sandwich and bit into it at once. I just turned my head and covered my mouth. Did I do something wrong? Was it because someone yelled? No, I must've done something wrong! Hoping I didn't, I scribbled my phone number on a piece of paper and gave it to Mitchie.

'I'll be... er, in my room.' I stuttered. Great! Now the stuttering's back! I crossed the clone's path as I went upstairs. It also could be my mother's path, I still wasn't sure.

'You like Alex, sweetie?' She asked Mitchie and I stopped dead in my tracks.

'Yeah. She's... wonderful.' Came Mitchie's reply and in that moment, my heart couldn't be happier. I ran towards my bed and touched my lips as I fell down on it.

'Alex?' I heard a soft question at the other end of the door.

'What?' I snapped, knowing for a fact that it was my mother.

'Can you open the door so we can talk?' She asked, probobly resting her hand on the doorframe.

'I don't remember it being locked and I deffinatly don't remember you losing your ability to open a damn door.' I said, turning my back towards the door when it opened.

'Sweetie...'

'Don't sweetie me, I'm still angry with you.'

'Alex, just let me explain. Like Connie said...' Oh, now I can start calling the clone, Connie. Finally I know her name! 'We were seperated when we were four...'

'And how the hell would a four year old forget about something like that?' I asked, not being able to stop myself. I had so many questions, but at the same time, I felt like I didn't even wanted to know the answer. I had a new aunt, Connie and a new cousin, Mitchie and that was all that mattered to me.

'I haven't spoken to Connie ever since we were seperated. It hurt so much. Talking with her made me feel so close to her, yet we were so far away.' No, please don't do this mom. Don't cry with me in the room, I whined to myself.

'Mom...'

'I'm sorry Alex, but I thought it would be best if you didn't know. I didn't even know about Mitchie, because if I did, I swear I would've told you. I would never forbid you to see your cousin.' That word right there felt like a stab to my heart. Cousin. I finally found someone I could fall for and then she turned out to be my cousin. My phone started ringing a boring ringtone, indicating I didn't have that number yet, so that would probobly be Mitchie.

'I need to get this.' I said quietly as I watched her nod. She walked out of the room without saying an other word and I pressed the grean button before putting the phone to my ear.

'Hello?'

'H-hey,' I heard the sweetest voice in the world say. 'It's Mitchie.'

'Hi!' I quickly said. My hand found its way to my shirt because I needed something to play with because I was too nervous. 'I was wondering if you were going to call..'

'Why wouldn't I?' She asked and my breath got stuck in my throat. Was she really going to make me say it?

'I don't know, because, you know, because of what happened...' My voice trailed off. Nope, she's not gonna hear it from my mouth.

'What DID happen though?' Mitchie asked me. Darn, how can I ignore such a sweet voice? Oh well, then I guess she's gonna hear me say it.

'I don't know... I ... I guess I ... kissed you.' I managed to get out, while staring at my hand. I sighed as I got no reply from Mitchie so I continued, 'And I'm sorry that I did it, because maybe you didn't like it, but I'm not sorry for liking it.' There, I said it, I was brutally honest.

'Oh... Alex,' Mitchie said. 'I did like it. But we just met and... you're my cousin!'

'I know, but I can't help how I feel.' I sighed, leaning against the headboard, closing my eyes. 'Mitchie?'

'Yeah?'

'Go to sleep,' I said, not sounding harsh at all, but just sweet. 'I'll see you tomorrow.'

'Fine,' came a childishly reply. 'Meanie.'

My heart skipped a beat at her tone and I grinned before saying, 'See you tomorrow. Night.' Then I pressed the red button, ending the call. I took my wand out, muttering some spell to change into my pyjamas, too lazy to get up and change manually. This was going to be a long night.

I had called Tessa this morning to pick me up for Mitchie's concert. I wanted her to go with me because, well, whet if something goes wrong, you know? Now, I realised that Mitchie hadn't told me where the concert was so I took out my cell phone and typed a quick message.

Where is the concert actually? You kinda didn't tell me... Xx Alex

It wasn't long before she replied.

Same place as before silly ;P Mitch

Wow, two concerts at the same place? That girl really is famous! I heard a knock on the door and yelled to my mother, 'I got it! It's probobly Tessa. See you tonight!'

I didn't even wait for a reply as I ran downstairs and smiled as I saw Tessa standing in the doorway, 'Ready to go?'

'Absolutely.' I got in her car and we drove off to the concert. Tessa said she would park the car so I could go in and find Mitchie. Some guy told me she was in her dressing room so I didn't waist any time and ran towards it. After a 15-minute search, I finally found it.

I slowly opened the door to Mitchie's dressing room and noticed someone in the middle of it. I closed the door and walked in further. 'Mitchie?'

'Alex?' She asked and it's only now that I realised she was standing there in nothing but a bra and some panties.

'Wow,' I said under my breath as I kept walking towards her. I looked at her in the mirror and smiled, closing my arms around her waist and giving her a kiss on the cheeck.

'You like?' She asked, looking at us hugging close. She started to trace circles on my hand and a shiver went south.

'Very much.' I said, twirling Mitchie in my arms and looking into her beautiful brown orbs. Oh, screw this. Before I knew it I was pushing my lips against Mitchie's. Feeling her reacting at once, opening her mouth under mind and the feeling of her hands exploring my curves seemed to fuel me more.

I slipped my tongue through her lips and touched the tip of her tongue before slowly, but passionatly, licking the roof of her mouth. She slipped her hands under the back of my jeans as her tongue traveled around mine, sending more shivers down to that little place between my legs.

I smiled against the kiss and put my hands on the back of her neck. I mumbled between kisses, 'I think. You should. Get dressed.'

'Yeah. You'd. Think,' she replied, pinning me against the wall. I grinned at this action, but slightly pulled back from the kiss, only to attach my lips to her neck.

A gasp escaped her lips, before she ran her fingers through my curls as my tongue teased her skin. I quickly pecked her lips again before distangling myself, 'Really, I think you should get dressed. Everyone's waiting for you.'

Mitchie smiled, 'I guess so. But then again I could always... nope. You're right.' I swear to God there was a flash of mischief in her eyes! She pulled away from me while moving her hips pointedly.

I quickly grabbed her wrist and puled her back into me, resting my hands on her waist. 'Could always what?' I asked, a twinkle appearing in my eyes.

'I could always...' She looked away with a smirk, leaving me more anxious. 'Undress...'

I quickly captured her lips with mine again. My hand traveled to her back, reaching the clip of her bra, but somehow, I found myself stopping my own hand.

Mitchie stared at me, asking, 'What's wrong?'

'As much as I want this right now, believe me, I do... Your show is going to start in like 15 minutes and I really like your voice and so do thousands of other people, so I really think you should get dressed and go kick some ass! I'll be in the curtains all the time.' I said before taking her hand and leading her towards her clothes.

'OK,' she pouted and my heart melted from the look on her face. 'Fine. I'll get dressed. Forget the fact I could be naked and sweaty and I think I should shut up now...'

Oh, sweaty Mitchie... naked Mitchie... Don't let your mind wander! 'Well, after the show you will be sweaty too and then you'll have to change again...' My voice trailed off before someone knocked on the door.

'Mitchie! Ten minutes!' Footsteps were heard, indicating that the man was leaving again.

'Ok. Yeah,' Mitchie said. 'Now get out or I'll never get dressed!' She pointed at the door, smiling.

'But I don't wanna get out...' I whined, pecking her on the lips.

'Well you gotta!' She said, pushing me towards the door. 'Otherwise I'm gonna spank you!' Whoa, that doesn't sound bad! Oh no! Bad Alex! Very very bad Alex! Why am I treating myself as a dog right now?

'Well, what if I don't have a problem with that?' I smirked, but ended up in a fit of laughter as I turned towards the door and opened it.

'I'm sure,' Mitchie smirked and I just raised my eyebrows. 'Now out!'

I hopped out of the door, closing it behind me and I walked towards the stage curtains.

'Where have you been?' Tessa asked me, pulling me into a hug.

'Mitchie's dressing room...' I quietly answered, which caused her to take a hold of my shoulders.

'Alex! You told me before we got here that you hardly know the girl! Let alone the fact that you're cousins!' She whisper-yelled to me.

'I know, you don't have to rub it into my face.' I said, pushing her hands off of my shoulders.

'Sorry,' she sighed, pulling me in a side-hug. 'I just don't want you to get your heart broken.'

'I know,' I smiled, laying my head on her shoulder. 'Thanks for looking out for me.'

I felt her nod and I looked towards my right to see Mitchie walking up to us. She smiled at some guy eating potato chips. I'm guessing she knows him. No, I'm not getting jealous if you're wondering. Mitchie made it pretty clear that she's into girls. Or is she into boys too? I'll have to ask her later.

I lifted my head off of Tessa's shoulder, took a hold of Mitchie's wrist and pulled her towards a quiet corner before she had to get onstage. 'Sorry, just wanted to say...' I took a deep breath before checking if someone saw us and then pecked her on the lips when everything was clear. 'Good luck.'

Seeing Mitchie smile at me makes my heart jump every time. 'Thanks,' she breathed as she pushed some of my hair out of my face. I shivered as her fingertips brushed my forehead and fought against the urge to close my eyes.

I got a warm feeling in the pit of my stomach and pulled her into a tight embrace, leaning my chin on her shoulder as I whispered in her ear, 'Get on stage and rock the crowd, Mitch. It's what you do best.'

I felt Mitchie letting go and I pulled back to let her run upstage. I returned to my spot next to Tessa before Mitchie's words entered my ears, 'How you doing, New York?! I wanna dedicate this show to my cousin, Alex Russo!'

My eyes grew wide and my jaw almost fell to the ground at that statement. Tessa literally pushed it close as I gripped her wrist. 'Jeez, Lex! A little looser please?'

Her words only sounded like a ringing tone in my ear as my brain didn't catch any of that. I kept the grip on her wrist throughout the show.

It became even tighter when she ended her show with Until You're Mine. She dedicated this show to me and then sings a song like that? What will her fans think? Seeing that they went crazy after they ended it, a smile crept on my face. Then it turned to worry at the thought of me and her ever ending up on the head tabloids. Then, it was as if a light went on in my head and I released my death grip on Tessa's wrist and ran away.

I heard her call, 'Alex?' but I didn't listen. I just ran straight towards Mitchie's dressing room.

Mitchie opened the door just as I still had a worried look on my face, but it soon disappeared when she had entered the room.

It was as if nothing could ever go wrong whenever I was with her, so I just did what I wanted to do. I forcefully captured her lips in my own before pulling back slightly. 'That was such an amazing show.'

'Thank you,' she replied, brushing her finger along my lips, probobly wiping some of the lip-gloss off. I didn't mind. 'Glad you enjoyed it.'

I took in the sight of her. She was sweaty, but so damn gorgeous. Before I knew what I was saying I whispered, 'Gosh, you look so hot right now.' I brushed some of her sweaty hair behind her ear.

'Alex Russo!' She exclaimed, 'I hardly know you!'

I didn't know what to say to that. I mean, sure she was had a point, but at the same time, all of this felt so right. That doesn't mean I didn't have any doubts. I was thinking about the fact that I just met her yesterday and that we were... cousins.

I did the only thing I could think of. I pressed my lips gently against hers, hoping that all the doubts would go away with that.

Feeling her kissing me back made the feeling go away for a little bit, but not for long. It was still wrong, but I put my hands behind Mitchie's neck as if to try to keep her in place and a very small smile came across my face.

However, it came back quickly as I felt Mitchie's fingers running up my thigh before going under my shirt, her nails tracing along my torso. 'Stop,' I mumbled against her mouth.

'Mhm,' was her only reply before she ran her hand along my cuves and along my back and down, reaching under my underwear.

That's when something in my mand snapped. I grabbed her hands and pulled them out of my jeans before pushing Mitchie away and backing up against the wall. My voice held anger I didn't even wanted for it to escape. 'Seriously, Mitchie, I said stop!'

Mitchie stared at me, her mouth in a straight line and her gaze pierced into mine. 'Ok! Sorry, thought you'd want- I'm sorry,' She said.

I softened at her expression, not wanting to be mad at her, because really, I wasn't. 'Mitchie, I'm truly sorry for yelling, but we can't do this.' My voice broke as I was talking and tears lightly appeared in my eyes. 'I just met you like yesterday and we're cousins for crying out loud!' I dug my hand in my own black hair, trying to keep the tears from falling.

'You didn't have a problem when you kissed me yesterday,' she said. Auch, her voice was harsh! 'So what's changed, Alex? Was it a "in-the-moment" thing?'

"No, ofcourse not. I really think you're beautiful! But it's just...' I sighed, not knowing how to put what I felt into words so I just repeated what I said a few seconds ago. 'I just met you yesterday... We're cousins...'

'Don't you think I fucking noticed?!' Mitchie snapped, I wanted to take another few steps back at her sudden snapping, but my foot hit the wall as I was already pressed up against it. I saw she took a few deep breaths before continuing, 'I was there, y'know. And.. I don't care. I don't know why I don't care because I know this is wrong. But-... you saved me.'

I turned my gaze towards the ground, not wanting to look her in the eye as I said, 'yes, I did save you and I don't regret that, because otherwise I would've never known you were my cousin, but what the hell will our parents think?'

'They kept their secret to themselves,' she said, 'why can't we?' Was she seriously suggesting that we wouldn't tell them? That we would date in secret? I know I'm most probobly the one to keep something like that from my parents, but Mitchie? I would never see her as the type of person that would lie to her parents.

'Mitch, you told me just a few moments ago that you hardly know me. How do you know I'm not some sick girl that just likes to fool around with people?' I asked, trying to get he mind off of the secret thing. I finally looked into her eyes, trying to reed the emotion in them, but she turned away.

'Ok,' she said, looking towards the white wall. 'We won't do this then.'

Seeing her looking towards the wall, I felt like I had to say something. 'Mitch,' I whispered, placing my hand gently on the younger girl's shoulder, 'You know well enought that I fell head over heels for you.'

'Do I, Alex?' she asked. 'How do I know you don't play games with girls like me?'

'Did you just say that because I asked you how you know I'm not some sick girl that likes to fool around with you?' I asked, taking a few steps back again, but raising my voice as I spoke, 'Don't you think that if I played games with you that I wouldn't be here right now? That I wouldn't have given you my number? That I wouldn't have fucking kissed you?!'

'I don't know you, remember?' she said in a tone as if to remind me. 'How do I know how far you'll go for a laugh? And I don't want to sound horrible, Alex. I really don't... but get out of my room, please.'

In that moment I broke down to the floor as cried, 'I'm just scared! Alright? I'm bloody scared!' My hands covered my face.

'Well I'm not!' Mitchie replied. She was bending down before she took my hands in hers, making my heart do flip flops again. 'I know what I want, Alex. And as crazy as it sounds I want you.'

As happy as that sentence made me, I fought against the urge to just push her to the ground and kiss her. That's what normal people do right? When they get a love confession and they feel the same way, they kiss? Well, guess what. I'm not normal!

'But our parents... They'll think we're crazy.' I replied softly, looking at Mitchie with a tear strained face.

She leaned in and kissed me for a very briefly moment. A moment I'll always keep in my heart. Then, she looked into my eyes, asking, 'Does it matter? Are you telling me you always listen to your parents?'

'Psh, no, that's why I get in trouble.' I joked, but soon my smile faded. 'I just...' I sighed for a moment, 'What will your fans think? Your career will be over! I mean, a rockstar who dates her own cousin? I don't want to do that to you.'

She looked down and imitated my sigh, 'Ok...Ok... I see,' she replied. 'I understand.'

I lifted her chin up to meet her eyes. 'Don't get me wrong, Mitch. Oddly enough, I want you too, but you can't live without your music. I know that much.'

'Maybe if I gain something better,' she said under her breath, before she gave me one of her comforting smiles. 'I understand. It's... fine.'

I nodded at her words and pulled her closer to give her the sweetest kiss she'd ever given. 'Why don't we start with friends, best friends, and see where it goes?'

'Ok,' Mitchie agreed, 'But kissing me isn't a good start.' I laughed at her statement and stood up, pulling her with me.

'Why don't you come stay at my place tonight? We could talk, like friends do, and tomorrow we can have some fun at the mall.'

I was glad to actually see that she considered it and I was even more happier that she said, 'Yeah, sure. If that'll be OK with our parents.'

My lips turned into a smile for the hundreth tim that night. 'I think they're going to be Ok with it. They'll want us to bond anyway.'

'Just not in the way we want to bond,' Mitchie giggled, but then her face turned like she was worried about that statement. As if she was scared that I would snap again. The smile stayed on my lips, reassuring her.

'Exactly,' I said as I winked to her before walking towards the door. 'Tessa will drop me off, so maybe Lee could drop you off at my place? You can always borrow some pyjamas. You can also drive with me and Tessa if you want.'

'Yeah sure. I'll go ask Lee. Not that I have to,' Mitchie giggled. 'I just have to batter my eyelashes and he gives in.'

'Best friend I assume,' I giggled back before opening the door for her. 'After you.' I held out my hand towards the hallway and chuckled.

'He's more like an older brother,' Mitchie replied as she walked through the door. 'Except not annoying unless he starts ranting about his Anti-Twilight movement or how the Mario games promote drug use!'

I ended up in a fit of laughter at her last words after I had closed the door. 'How the heck would a Mario game promote drug use?'

'According to Lee Mario eats Mushrooms and gets bigger which is like Mario eats Mushrooms to get high,' Mitchie explained. 'Which is why he sees Gommbas and that dragong thing. Plus a male dinosaur that lays its own eggs. You'd have to be high to see that!'

'Oh my God that's totally something Max would come up with! I bet they will be good friends,' I laughed as we came towards a hallway that led into two different directions. 'Well, I don't know about you but I have to go to the left here...' My voice trailed off.

'Max would have to be a Sonic fan first,' Mitchie giggled. 'And I've got to keep going.. tourbus and all. Just wish Lee or Mum would drive us here sometimes but y'know... public image.'

'I konw! Your tourbus can totally drop you off at my place! That way, we can sneak you to my room without fans noticing, they'll think you're eating a sandwich, that means they'll want to eat one too, that means good buesiness for us and then your tourbus can leave without you!' I rambled, jumping up and down from exitement.

'You'll have to sneak me out of their sight pretty quickly,' Mitchie pointed out and I stopped jumping, surprised that she was even thinking about it.

'You could wear a hoodie and cover your face?' I suggested with a dumb grin on my face.

'I have this really big funky hat in the bus,' Mitchie grinned. 'I would say I'd use the Michael Myers mask Lee used to scare his brother by wearing it when he woke up but I don't think that'll work.'

'We can try?' I smirked. 'Come on, I really want us to have a sleepover, you know to ... talk and stuff.'

'And stuff?' I watched as Mitchie winked slyly.

'Yes, I...' I thought for a second at how that might have sounded to Mitchie. 'Oh, just go ask if they're okay with it.' I pushed Mitchie slightly before blushing and turning around.

'Yeah, yeah!' I heard her reply. 'So naggy.'

I just shrugged before walking down the hall to search for Tessa.

After I had found her she had dropped me off at my house and I quickly ran up to my room. She had asked me what happened because I was so quiet in the car, but I wouldn't tell her yet. She knew that when I was ready, I would tell her and that's what I love about her. She wouldn't push me into telling something. She had just chosen to give me a hug and to let me run to my room. I couldn't help but think that it took Mitchie too long to get over here so I took my cell phone from my pocket and typed a quick message.

So, what did Lee and your mother say? Can you come? Xx

I sent it to Mitchie, but held my phone in my hand, hoping that she would reply soon. I was right because after just mere seconds I got a reply.

My mum said yeh its ok. Shes gna speak to ur mom 1st tho :)

I smiled, sending

Okay, lemme know when you know something. Xx

Back to her before putting my cell phone back in my pocket as I stared out of the window of my room.
