Disclaimer: I don't own anything to do with Camp Rock.
AN: Nate's chapter - sorry they are taking so long! Thanks to everyone for reading and reviewing!
1. When he was younger, he wanted to be a doctor. All of the other kids at school wanted to be famous singers and pop stars but he always wanted to be a doctor. His parents even bought him a toy stethoscope and he played with it for few days before his brother broke it. He still wanted to be doctor though, and that's what he said to everyone that asked him.
When he was six, he fell in the playground and scraped his knee and when he looked down at it, he threw up at the sight of blood. He changed his mind that day, deciding that he would be able to sing in front of thousands of people but he wouldn't be able to stand the sight of blood.
2. His parents had forced him to go to Camp Rock. They thought he was really talented and he would do really well there. He had been really cynical at the time and he told them that they thought he was talented because they were his parents. They made him go anyway.
He hated the first two weeks and he was so annoyed at his parents that he wouldn't even talk to them on the phone. But then, he accidentally made friends with Jason and Shane because they were all so different and even though he didn't admit it to his parents, he loved it after that.
3. When Connect 3's manager talked to him about sending Shane back to Camp Rock for an attitude adjustment he agreed almost immediately. Not because he was getting sick of Shane, but because he missed his best friend and he knew how much Shane loved Camp Rock. He used a whole mixture of techniques to convince Shane to go, including lying and telling him that he had a problem with him.
He didn't regret it one bit when he was talking to Shane on the phone and Shane mentioned that the duet with the winner was a good idea.
4. He was really excited to meet Mitchie Torres because she was the girl that changed Shane and he didn't know why but he already had an image of her in his head. He expected her to be confident and out going.
He was slightly shocked when Shane introduced them, not because she seemed nervous and timid, but because she wouldn't stop staring at him and stumbling over her words until her pretty friend nudged her.
5. He loved arguing with Caitlyn and he had never, ever won an argument against her. They fought about anything and everything - from what type of hair product was the best for curly hair to what kind of beat would go best with Shane and Mitchie's duet. He loved the smirk that Caitlyn would throw his way after admitting defeat.
Mitchie once accused him of cheating, and letting Caitlyn win their arguments. He smiled and said he didn't know what she was talking about.
6. Sometimes when he was feeling down, he wished he could be a bit more like Jason - able to ask anyone for a hug just to cheer him up. Instead, he would sit in the corner of his room with his guitar and avoid everyone as much as he could.
It took Jason a week on their very first tour to figure it all out and he pretended that he was missing home and asked Shane and Nate for a group hug. Nate knows he was lying; he appreciates even more because he was.
7. When Jason told him he was dating Tess Tyler, he wanted to laugh. He had never imagined that two people, so different from one another could ever work.
But he spoke to Tess after that, and when she told him that she loved Jason, he couldn't help but think they might possibly perfect for each other.
8. Everyone missed their parents on tour, but the one person that Nate spoke to every single day, was his little sister. It was the only thing he ever regretted about being famous - that he couldn't spend enough time with her.
They were coming to the end of the tour when he called her and she answered the phone crying. He got on the next plane back home to see her.
9. The only time he had ever really wanted to hit someone, was when his sister told him her boyfriend had broken up her. In a rage, he had marched down to the boys house and had shouted through the door until he opened it.
Once he had, he found he didn't really want to hit him and instead settled on some very strong words. He cringed as he walked away from the house, thinking he probably sounded like his Dad, but he smiled when his sister hugged him to say thanks.
10. He couldn't ever work up the courage to ask Caitlyn out, even though he really liked her and in the end, fed up of him taking forever, she decided to ask him out instead after a lot of encouragement from Shane.
It was hardly a surprise when, six years later, after he messed up a couple of proposals, it was Caitlyn who knelt down on one knee and asked him to marry her. Shane teased him about it for ages but he didn't really care.
