AN: I've been told that I need to say this, so Keana, mentioned in this chapter, is my sister, my favorite sister (my only sister).
The limo finally arrived at their destination. Shane and Mitchie both felt a little bit nervous about the whole thing. Okay, a lot nervous, even kind of shy.
They got out of the limo, feeling just about every feeling possible.
"Wow!" Mitchie squealed. She felt so shy, only because of how much she loved him and wanted to be with him, and their first date was going to be a picnic on the beach, it seemed too good to be true.
"So my bodyguard will be here to keep people away from us if needed. But I picked this spot so we wouldn't have to deal with that." Shane said, taking her hand in his.
Shane liked what was happening. Mitchie saw right through the rockstar he was.
"Does all of this mean you want forever?" Mitchie had been trying to find out if all he'd been doing recently was a sign; she just had to know if that was really what he wanted. Every day something would happen that would bring them closer together. And nothing had pulled them apart just yet.
"Yeah, I do want forever, I kind of avoided telling you because I was shy, but yes, every day I dream about us together."
Mitchie smiled the smile that melted Shane's heart. They walked over to where Shane had everything set up. The first date was going to be perfect, but the only thing was… Mitchie's parents, they might not want their daughter, their only child, staying out all night with some boy.
"Okay, I want to know you better so I'm going to ask a few questions."
"Expect me to do the same."
Mitchie smiled as she asked "Do you have any siblings?"
"Yep, I have a little sister named Sophia, she's going to be a rockstar someday; I just know it."
"That's so cute. Did you want a little sister?"
"No, I was happy with being an only child, but I also wanted a twin brother."
"I used to want a twin, but I got over that pretty fast."
"Same here, okay it's my turn to ask you a question. When's your birthday?" Shane asked.
"August 20th"
"That's cool, mine's August 15th." Shane smiled. He finally felt close to someone that wasn't faking around him. And the best part about it was that she was really cute.
"So we're like exactly two years apart, that's really cool." Mitchie felt really close to him in that moment.
"So are you free tomorrow? I'm here all week." Shane was feeling nervous again, it was definitely real love. He performed on stage all the time. He was constantly on TV, yet one girl was making him nervous. Mitchie sensed his nervousness. She moved closer to Shane, making him wrap his arms around her, he was stroking her ribs, which he didn't know he was doing until Mitchie giggled.
"Well, what are you planning on doing tomorrow?" Mitchie asked. It really didn't matter what he was going to say, as long as they'd be together, Mitchie was happy.
"Well, what do you want to do? You should pick this time." Mitchie had to think for a few moments, according to Shane, it was almost as cute as when she smiled. That's one of the reasons he never wanted the night to end. But they were going to have to say goodbye tonight, it was still all too soon. It was a strange feeling for sure.
"Maybe you could meet my parents; I think they'd be mad at me if I didn't tell them."
"I could do that, but when do you want me to come over?" Shane asked. Mitchie answered almost immediately:
"11:30, in the morning obviously." Shane saw the start of forever with meeting Mitchie's parents. He was getting ready for the rest of his life.
"I'll be there." Shane said; inside, he was nervous about what Mitchie's parents might think of him, and hoped that they would see that he really loved Mitchie.
"Awesome!" Mitchie squealed before calmly asking "How are the other members of Connect 3 doing?"
"They're doing amazingly well; Nate's dating a girl named Keana. I haven't met her before but Nate's told me all about her. She seems like a good match for him. And Jason's just… Jason."
"Is Jason still asking you for that birdhouse?" Mitchie giggled. Shane thought it was adorable when she did that.
"Oh my gosh, yes! I wish he would stop asking me to make him one of those silly things." Mitchie laughed at Shane's outburst. He watched her, because of how cute she was being. He couldn't believe he had almost given up on her. But Cupid must have brought them back together again.
"I think the best way to solve that problem is by making him a birdhouse, and my dad can help you with that, and the more time you spend with my dad, the more he'll trust you. Or hate you." She said without thinking.
"I'd rather him trust me."
Shane looked at his watch – 1 hour left to spend with Mitchie. It felt so real to Shane when he was with Mitchie. It felt like he was in a different world without her, "It would be nice if he trusted you. I'd be begging him to change his mind if he ends up hating you. But my dad won't be the one to control who I love."
