Chapter 21! Say what?!!

~*~*~*~**~**~***~*~*~*~*~***~*~*~**~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~**~*~~*~*~*~*~*~**~~**~

Shane's POV.

"Shane…

Do you remember that one time that those two fans of yours logged on into a chat and were talking to us?"

I nodded my head signaling her to continue, but I have to admit I was definitely confused.

"Well…I uh…I received an I.M. from one of the girls yesterday. And she happened to know that we are dating. She also happened to know a major secret that I have that I'd rather not talk about."

I don't like where this is going…

"She said that if I didn't break up with you, she would tell my secret to all the paparazzi and dish about our relationship to all the magazines and stuff."

I finally jumped in, in complete rage.

"MITCHIE! SHE'S BLACKMAILING YOU?"

"Well…yeah. Unfortunately."

I tried to calm myself down. This time I spoke a lot softer…practically a whisper. It was a dramatic change from the anger that just came over me.

"So……she…wants us to break up?"

"……Yes…otherwise she'll spill."

I thought I was going to have a mental breakdown at that point. What could be so bad that Mitchie would end something so beautiful that we have…and in addition…not even want to tell me about? Does she not trust me? How does this random fan even know something about Mitchie that I don't?

I tried to stay as calm as I could taking extremely deep breaths without sounding like an idiot.

"Oh…

Look Mitchie. I know it's really not your fault and there's nothing you can do about it. I would never want to put you in a situation where reporters would follow you everywhere and that something that's extremely important to you be all over magazines and who knows what. I completely understand that you want to break up with me."

"Shane…"

I cut her off by grabbing her and giving her the most passionate kiss I possibly could because basically I knew it would be my last. I kissed the poor girl like it was my last day on Earth. But fortunately, she didn't pull away…until…well, of course oxygen became a slight problem.

"Shane…"

I caught my breath and then continued where we left off, but this time she pulled away quickly.

"SHANE!"

Caught off guard and kind of hurt I backed off, because I had a strong feeling that what was going to come out of her mouth next was not going to be something I would ever want to hear in my entire life.

"Shane…I'm not breaking up with you."

WHAT?!

I literally pinched my arm and Mitchie giggled at me. God, I love her laugh.

"Umm…sorry what?" I said in disbelief.

"I'm not breaking up with you!"

"What? Why?"

"I am not going to let some random girl ruin what we have. It's too special and it means way too much to me. If she wants to tell my secret, she can. It doesn't matter to me. Who knows what she would make me do? She would hold it over my head for everything. I really don't care what she says. I am not going to let go of you."

"Mitchie…I want you to be as happy as you possibly can."

"And I will be…with you."

We leaned in once again, but this time she didn't pull away.

~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~***~***~*~*~*~***~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~**~*~

We ran down the street back to Mitchie's house and went straight up to her room.

"Mitchie…don't EVER do that to me again!"

"What?"

"You scared me! I thought you were breaking up with me!"

"Well you didn't even give me a chance to speak…you were a little occupied with something else…" she said giggling. "By the way, you have lip gloss smeared all over your face." She said trying to rub some of it off.

Breaking up the awkward moment she immediately grew a huge grin on her face an exclaimed so fast that I could barely understand her…

"ISTARTEDASONGIWANTYOUTOHEAR!"

I couldn't help but laugh at that one.

"Okay, okay…go grab the guitar…" I said still laughing.

We went and sat on her bed and she tuned up her guitar. This was basically our usual routine when either of us had a song for each other.

"It's only the chorus…but I still really want you to hear it."

we gotta let it grow
like a flower under rain
like a child's first day
like a story's first page
watch our love come to life
love is not a thing to rush
it's a feeling you should trust
it'll be that way with us
watch our love come to life
come to life come to life
watch our love come to life

"What did you think?" she asked me.

Without even giving her an answer, (it was pretty obvious what I thought) I just pushed her down onto the bed as she set the guitar aside on its stand and kissed her passionately. Surprisingly, we rolled over so that now she was on top of me. I guess my expression showed that I was caught off guard because she giggled softly for a moment and smiled. I leaned closer to her, if that was even possible whispering in her ear.

"I love it when you laugh."

And with that, we closed the gap between us once again. Between us rolling around and moving on her bed we almost knocked over the guitar, so laughing, Mitchie got up off of me, off of the bed and moved the guitar. I quickly jumped up and pushed her up against the wall. I think I scared her but I could tell she didn't mind it. She started laughing her signature giggle again.

"God Shane…" She said giggling at my fast movement.

"It's your laugh that does it to me."

I kept her up against the wall and brushed up against her lips, but then began placing kissed across her cheek, to her ear and down her neck and bit down. She moaned a little bit, but I felt bad because I immediately knew that there would be a mark in a few hours. Not exactly the impression I would want to make on her parents, but they were out until tomorrow afternoon so later I would help her cover it up, and they weren't here anyway so I figured we could still have some fun.

I put my hand on her lower back underneath her tank top rubbing circles on her back as we slowly came away from the wall. Mitchie put her tongue into my mouth, and I was again surprised at how outgoing she was becoming. Great. Now Nate's going to give me an entire lecture on how I'm going to turn a sweet girl like Mitchie into a devil, blah blah blah.

Anyway, she pulled away for oxygen but she started giggling which of course made me laugh, even though I had no clue why she was laughing. Her giggle is just contagious like that. It turns out she was laughing at all the lip gloss I had smeared across my face. I looked in the mirror and I saw exactly why she was laughing. Half of my face was shiny and half of my face was covered in sparkles. I couldn't help but laugh at myself but I really didn't care.

"It's okay…I'll just clean it off later." I said brushing it off and smiling.

Next thing I knew she was pulling lip gloss out of her pocket and putting more on.

"Mitchie…!" I whined.

"Shane…!" She whined mocking me but smirking.

Mitchie's phone starting ringing so she took it out of her pocket to answer it. She mouthed to me that it was Caitlyn.

"Would you two get a grip?"

"Caitlyn's here?" she whispered to me. I just shrugged my shoulders.

"Yes I am!" She answered obviously hearing Mitchie.

"Remember…we were supposed to hang out today?" She said clearly annoyed.

I motioned for Mitchie to hand me the phone which she did, but reluctantly and confused.

"Look, Caitlyn how can I put this nicely…uhh……LEAVE! NOW!"

"What? No way!"

I had to do something.

"Oh…I (ckkkkk) can't (ckkkkk) un-d-der-stand you (ckkkkkk) your break (ckkkkk) ing up! (ckkkkk) Bye!

I hope it wasn't bad! I hope you guys liked it! Once again sorry that it was a complete Smitchie chapter. I'll put Naitlyn in the next one. P.S. The song was called Come To Life by Marie Digby =] REVIEW! =]
