Disclaimer: I don't own anything to do with Camp Rock.
AN: This one is for CrayonsPink who requested Mitchie (after Brown who I will eventually get onto.) Thanks for reviewing!
1. The poster of Connect 3 that she had in her bedroom wasn't because she really liked their music. It wasn't even because she thought Shane Gray was hot (because she hadn't really thought that until she met him.) It was up on the back of her door because her Dad had given it to her one day with the statement "All teenage girls seem to like him so I thought you probably do too."
She didn't bother correcting him and telling him that her favourite band was 'The Fray' because it was first time in her memory that her Dad had got her something without asking for her Mom's help. And after all, it was thought that counted.
2. Her best friend isn't Sierra. It isn't even Caitlyn. Her best friend is her Mom, because she knows she can go to her with anything and no-one knows her better than she does.
Even after Camp Rock, when she has more friends than she has ever had in her whole life, her Mom is always the first person she'll talk to for anything.
3. It was actually Sierra who had heard about Camp Rock and she had given Mitchie a brochure. It was also Sierra who had first heard Mitchie singing and convinced her that her voice was special.
Mitchie hadn't believed her but when she saw the Camp Rock brochure she was tempted. She didn't think she was that good but Sierra managed to convince her that she should consider going. She will always be grateful to Sierra because that summer was the best summer of her life.
4. When all the girls in her school fawned over Shane Gray, she couldn't quite understand because her favourite member of Connect 3 was Nate. He always came across smart, polite and down-to-earth in his interviews when Shane came across as a jerk.
When she met Nate for the first time, she nearly had a fan-girl moment and Caitlyn and Shane have never let her forget it. They probably never will.
5. Her second summer at Camp Rock, her Mom hadn't been able to make it. Her Gran hadn't been well and her Mom had offered to stay with her until she got better. At first Mitchie had been excited because she didn't need to worry about things like her Mom seeing her with her boyfriend.
Two weeks in, she broke down crying when the cakes one afternoon had plain icing on them and they weren't decorated with music notes. She didn't realise how homesick she was until then, and that night she spent an hour on the phone to her Mom. She felt even worse after that, but it was a conversation with Jason that cheered her up.
6. She could never understand the relationship between Shane, Nate and Jason. She knew they were best friends but they weren't normal best friends. Shane and Nate spent most of their time bickering and Jason just managed to wind them both up.
Shane told her to give up, that she wasn't ever going to understand it and when the three of them came home one day having spent the day at Disneyland by themselves, she gave up.
7. She scoffed when people told her that knew she was going to get together with Shane because how on earth did they know that when she didn't?
It wasn't until she saw Caitlyn and Nate talking did she understand what they meant and it was her idea to organise a betting pool for when they would together – the fact that Caitlyn told her everything had nothing to do with her winning it.
8. Everyone thought Shane was the commitment phobe in their relationship but in reality it was her. When Shane asked her to move in, she started hyperventilating and said no because she couldn't believe they had got to that stage in their relationship.
She still hasn't forgiven Shane for how he did convince her to move in. He had started by asking her to stay one night and then another and so on until he pointed out it would just be easier for her to move in.
9. Part of her never forgave Tess for making her feel so horrible after Camp Rock and she always held it against her.
When Jason told her he was thinking of proposing, she called Tess over for coffee because she knew she had to get over her feelings. She had been pleasantly surprised to discover Tess's 'new' personality.
10. The only time she had a fight with Caitlyn was when she told her that she wasn't her best friend. Caitlyn didn't talk to her for three days after that and it was Nate that convinced her that Mitchie didn't mean t in a bad way.
Caitlyn called her to apologise and it was only when Mitchie told her that she was more a sister to her did her voice sound more cheerful.
