Alex walked into her house, "Hey Justin! I haven't seen you in awhile." She dropped her bag down by the couch and plopped down beside her brother who was watching the T.V. screen blankly.

"Mmm yeah. Did you get Max?"

"No, I never do. You do."

Justin ripped his gaze away from the T.V. screen, "No I don't. You do."

"No I don't Justin. I never see him when I get home."

Justin looked back at the screen, "Oh well then I'm sure he's fine. I'm sure he knows what he's doing."

Alex agreed, "Yeah, he's smart. I think he goes to the Gray's house for dinner every night. You wanna go over tonight?"

"Sure, why not?"

After a few minutes of silence Alex asked Justin about any news, "So, anything new with you and Becky?"

"No."

"What have you guys been doing?"

"Nothing. Hanging out."

"Did you come home last night?"

"What are you my mother?"

"Gosh Justin! I was just wondering. Besides it's not like your mother would even ask. She probably wouldn't even know."

Justin softened his tone, "Yeah, I'm sorry. I know."

"I'm just trying to keep up with you that's all. I just want to make sure you are okay... that you're being safe... safe!"

Justin replied like he's heard it a million times, "Yes, Alex, I know. You told me the first time you caught me. And I'm still using the glove."

"Yep, good for you. No glove no love."

"So... You and Nate doing it?"

"JUSTIN! You sir have just crossed the line."

"You started it."

"YEAH but we both know that you do it. Me and Max have caught you several times."

"It's not like we can do it at Becky's all the time. Her mom's a stay-at-home mom."

"Woowww. You guys do it when her mom is home?"

"Yeah."

"Justin, that's weird. Does she know?"

"She hasn't said anything about it. So I don't think so."

"How does she not hear? Where was she when you guys do it?"

"She's normally like downstairs or something."

"OH gross...Besides no offense or anything but you can definitely do better than Becky."

"No offense taken, it's Becky. You never answered my question."

"What question?"

"Are you and Nate doing it?"

"No. You should've guessed that."

"Yeah but I didn't. Oh well. When do you want to go?"

"In a little bit. I want to stop by Mitchie's before we go."

"Kay."

Justin turned off the T.V. and grabbed the keys as he and Alex got out of the house. They went over to Mitchie's and didn't even bother to knock, that's how often they went over to her house.

Once they got in, Justin sat down on the couch and Alex ran up to Mitchie's room where she found Mitchie and Miley, "What's up girls?"

Miley smiled, "I think I found our song!"

Mitchie simply smiled.

Alex replied to Miley's outburst, "Okay, what is it?"

Miley answered, "I'm thinking Cruella De Ville or Tell Me Something I Don't Know. It'll be fun promise."

Alex boringly replied and sat down on Mitchie's bed where Miley was lying, "Yeah okay, you choose. How you doin' with your song Mitch?"

Mitchie looked up from her paper, "Pretty well, I suppose. You ready to go?"

Alex stood up and straightened her shirt, "Yeah, let's go."

The girls went downstairs and them and Justin locked up and got into Justin's car.

Once they got to the Gray house. They saw Nate, Max, and Frankie kicking the soccer ball around the front yard. They all got out of the car, Alex ran up to Nate, hugged him and began a kiss with him, which interrupted the little soccer game he had started with the younger boys.

Miley stepped out and hugged the youngest Gray and the youngest Russo. Justin started to kick the ball around with the boys.

Mitchie just had to ask, "Hey Max, where's Shane?"

Max rubbed the back of his head, "Uhh, I think he's inside."

"Oh, okay."

Everybody was hanging outside and about twenty minutes passed when Mitchie had to use the bathroom. She walked inside the house and she stopped abruptly after she closed the front door. She raised one nicely arched eyebrow when she heard moaning and the squeaking of bed springs. Then she heard someone scream Shane's name repeatedly. She suddenly lost the urge to pee.

Mitchie went to open the front door but she saw Mrs. Gray's mini-van pulling up the drive-way. Mitchie quickly thought about the situation, she could just go outside and help Mrs. Gray bring in the groceries, or she probably should stop Shane before he got caught. She ran up the stairs unintentionally making no noise. Once she got up there, the noices had become louder. Mitchie jogged to Shane's door and once she turned to knock on the door she got more than she bargained for.

She expected to see Shane's white door in front of her face but instead she was presented with the disturbing sight of what seemed like Shane in bed with ...more like on top of a girl. Mitchie quickly turned around crushed and embarrassed, "Umm Shane!"

Behind her she could hear Shane cursing and getting off of the girl who was groaning from the lack of contact with Shane. Then she heard the girl, "What the hell do you want Bitch?"

"Uhh, Shane's mom's home. Just thought I'd let you know." Mitchie then quickly ran to the garage to help Mrs. Gray with the groceries.

As Mrs. Gray put down a bag of groceries she said to Mitchie with a smile, "Why thank you Mitchie! You were such a big help."

Mitchie sheepishly smiled, "Oh no problem, are there anymore bags left in the car?"

Mrs. Gray began to put things away, "How about we let Kevin get that."

Mitchie took a seat on the counter chair as Mrs. Gray was putting away the last jar of spaghetti sauce into the pantry, "Okay."

Mrs. Gray took out a pitcher, a juicer, a bunch of lemons, sugar, and some water from the filter attached to the sink faucet, "So, would you like to help me make some lemonade?"

Mitchie smiled, it reminded her about how her mother use to ask her to help her cook, even though she hated to help sometimes, she really missed it, "I would love to Mrs. Gray."

Mrs. Gray grabbed a lemon, "Honey, you know you can just call me Denise." Mrs. Gray considered why Mitchie wasn't calling her Denise or mom anymore.

Mitchie grabbed a lemon and a juicer, "Oh, well okay."

"Mitchie, what have you been up to lately? I haven't seen you spending much time here."

"Oh, well I've been kind of busy, here and there. Miley spends a lot of time at my house now, my house is practically her permanent address." Mitchie smiled at the thought of how much time her and Miley spend together.

"That sounds nice. Are you and Shane not together anymore?"

Mitchie blushed, "Mrs. Gray.."

"Denise."

"Denise, I don't even think me and Shane were ever together."

Mrs. Gray put down the lemon, "Mitchie. Tell me about it."

Mitchie was hesitant to say anything but she's always been open with Mrs. Gray, "Well.." Mitchie continued to juice the lemon, "This is kind of awkward Mrs. Gray."

Mrs. Gray didn't want to push Mitchie to call her Denise anymore, she saw Mitchie start to tear up, "Mitchie, honey."

Mitchie used her forearm to wipe away her tears, "No, it's okay, I just got some lemon juice in my eye... eyes. It's nothing."

Mrs. Gray dropped her lemon and wiped her hands on her apron, she went around the counter to Mitchie and gave Mitchie a hug, "It's okay honey." Mrs. Gray was rubbing Mitchie's back when they heard footsteps coming down the stairs. Mitchie sat upright and quickly wiped her eyes.

Shane came downstairs with a girl. Mrs. Gray looked at her son, "No hi?"

Shane sheepishly said, "Hi mom."

The girl behind him didn't say anything, so Mrs. Gray took the liberty of doing so, "Hello there."

The girl sheepishly waved and hid behind Shane. Mrs. Gray looked at Shane and put her hands on her hips, "Shane, I would like to speak to you but before I do, I want you to show your friend out."

Shane walked the girl to her car. Mrs. Gray looked down at Mitchie who had just started to continue juicing the lemon that she had already juiced, "I'll be right back." Mrs. Gray walked to the open front door and saw the kids playing on the lawn while Shane was making out with the girl. Mrs. Gray didn't want to make a scene but, "SHANE! GET IN HERE!" The kids in the yard stopped their game of soccer and looked at Mrs. Gray surprised. Mrs. Gray hardly raised her voice.

Shane released his lips from the girl and ran inside as the girl left. Alex just had to ask, she whispered quietly to Miley, "Who was that girl?"

Miley said knowingly, "That's Chelsea (A/N: Chelsea = Lauren Collins). She's the girl who Shane was caught having sex with in the theater."

Alex gasped, "NOooo!"

Miley nodded.

Shane didn't hear what they were talking about but once he got inside and closed the front door, the kids in the yard ran up to the windows and looked in to see Mitchie juicing lemons and Mrs. Gray looking angry at Shane.

"Shane, what was that girl doing in the house without us home? I've never even met this girl. What was she doing upstairs? I presume she was in your room. What has gotten into you? You know the rules. And what is with you? You're friend is down here and you decide to bring a girl up to your room?"

Shane was looking down at his feet but he tried to defend himself, "I don't have any friends down here, everybody is outside, mom."

Mitchie heard what Shane said and she froze. She dropped the lemon, slid off the chair, and walked out to the garage to chill with Mr. Gray.

Mrs. Gray waited until Mitchie closed the door before admonishing Shane, "Shane. Did you know Mitchie was down here?"

"I guess."

Mrs. Gray looked Shane straight in the eyes, "I am very disappointed in you Shane." Mrs. Gray walked away to the garage and asked Mitchie if she wanted to come back in to finish the lemonade. Mitchie stepped inside but when she saw Shane sittiing watching T.V. she said, "Uh, Mrs. Gray. I think I'll just chill outside." Mrs. Gray watched Mitchie walk back out through the garage door and end up in the front yard.

Once Mitchie got out there Alex could tell something was wrong. She jogged over to Mitchie who was standing in front of the window watching there soccer game.

"Mitchie? What's wrong?" Mitchie looked down at the grass and started to aimlessly kick the grass.

"Nothing, Alex. It's nothing."

Alex could tell that Mitchie had been crying, "Mitchie. Please tell me about it."

Mitchie had a little outburst but quiet enough for only Alex to actually react whereas everybody else thought she was just talking, "Gosh! Why is everybody asking me? Nothing is wrong." Alex looked at Mitchie worriedly, she gave Mitchie a hug and they both sat on the grass while Alex held Mitchie in her arms. "Alex, I don't even know if I want to eat here anymore."

Alex tried to reason with Mitchie, "Mitchie, if you don't eat here, you won't have any food at home."

Mitchie looked around, "Whatever, I'll just eat here and then go home." Mitchie quickly wiped away a stray tear that rolled out of her eye.

Alex gave Mitchie one last squeeze and let go. "C'mon let's play some soccer."

Alex gave Mitchie a hand to get up. Once they got up they were included into the game-girls vs. boys. A few hours later, Mrs. Gray opened the front door to call in the kids to eat.

They all quickly sat down at the table except for Shane who sluggishly walked up to the table. Somehow, the seating arrangement turned out like (at a rectangular table) both ends were empty for Mr. and Mrs. Gray, Nate sat next to a head of the table, Alex sat next to him, Max sat next to Alex, and Frankie sat next to Max. On the other side of the table Justin sat across from Frankie and next to Miley who was sitting across from Max, Mitchie sat in between Miley and the empty seat and in front of Alex. Mitchie soon realized who would be sitting next to her and she looked down at the table. Mr. Gray came around with utensils for everybody. Mrs. Gray saw that Shane had not sit down yet and she called to the kitchen to get a glass of lemonade for everybody. Shane was complaining and such but he still brought over glasses for everybody except Mitchie-he 'forgot'. Mitchie told Mrs. Gray it was okay and she got up to get herself her own glass. All the kids looked around the table to see if anybody else noticed what Shane did. When Mitchie came back, something was different. She looked at the place that she was sitting at and it had been filled with Justin's body. Her face displayed an expression of confusion but it disappeared quickly as she took the seat in front of Frankie and beside Miley. Mitchie was called back into the kitchen along with Frankie to bring in plates of food for everybody. Mr. Gray, Mrs. Gray, Frankie, and Mitchie brought out food for everybody and once they were done, they all began to eat and conversation was filling the room. About an hour later, Shane quickly got up and offered to take everyone's plate to the sink. He took everyone's except for Mitchie, again. So she did it herself and Mrs. Gray gave Mr. Gray a look. Once Mitchie got into the kitchen, Shane brushed past her. Mitchie lightly placed her plate in the sink. Mrs. Gray was usually a wash-the-dishes kind of lady not the use-the-dishwasher kind but since they had a bunch of dishes to do, Mitchie knew that Mrs. Gray would probably just rinse off all the plates and use the dishwasher. So Mitchie took the liberty to begin rinsing and loading the dishwasher. She had nothing else to do.

Mrs. Gray walked into the kitchen, "Hi honey. Whatcha doin'? You wanna come out and talk?"

Mitchie continued what she was doing, "No, not really, I'm good here."

Mrs. Gray was speaking politely and yet concerned at the same time, "Okay, well thank you Mitchie."

After about an hour, Mitchie came out of the kitchen and her shirt was a little wet from the splashes that bounced off the glass plates as she was rinsing them. She went up to Mrs. Gray and gave her a hug and said, "Thank you Mrs. Gray for the dinner, it was really good." Mrs. Gray smiled, "No problem honey, come over anytime for dinner, we always love having you over." Then they heard Shane snort. Everybody looked at him and Mitchie slowly let go of Mrs. Gray and walked to Mr. Gray and gave him a pat on the shoulder and a goodbye as she left out the door.

xoxoxo

Oh how embarrassing for Mitchie to have caught her ex-boyfriend in bed with another girl? Do you guys think Shane is being a complete jerk? Tell me what's on your mind :D
