AN: Keana, I'm not mentioning you in this chapter because you won't do school for me and because I'm mad at you. And you know why…
How many of you are tired of hearing that "All Summer Long" song on the radio? It was fine the first time I heard it, but then it got extremely popular and I even heard it on four radio stations at once. If you like the song, I won't hate you, I – never mind, I'm done ranting now.
Mitchie's Pov
"Mom, Dad, my boyfriend's coming today. I didn't think you'd like it if I was dating behind your back."
"You have a boyfriend?" My dad asked me.
"She's probably talking about her 'rockstar' boyfriend again." My mom said. I had to admit that the phrase 'I'm dating a rockstar' was a little bit unreal to me. I'm pretty sure I should have avoided the rockstar part when I first told them, now they don't believe me.
There have been many times where I felt like turning back time through this process. But if Tess hadn't revealed my lie, Shane wouldn't be meeting my parents.
"That's probably it. Mitchie's been acting way too serious about that."
I was about to scream at my parents, but I didn't feel like being disrespectful. I took a deep breath and felt a little bit better.
"I guess my wish on a star was actually granted."
I was going to be with Shane in an hour. But if my father didn't like him, I'd either be forbidden from seeing him, or if I declared right then and there that I didn't care about what my dad was telling me, I'd
be kicked out of the house. I was hoping for the best. I tried to prepare for the best. But I wasn't prepared for anything.
"Okay… your imaginary boyfriend probably won't be good enough for you by my standards. And I'd really appreciate it if you'd stop talking about him as if he were a real person." My dad said in the same tone of voice I remembered him using to tell me 'No boy will ever be good enough for my Mitchie' years ago.
"But I'm telling the truth."
"I'll believe you if he shows up today." My mom said, but she didn't realize I was trying to tell her a secret. "But honestly, a rockstar showing up at our house…?"
I was trying to make them believe me, but why they still didn't get it was a mystery to me.
"I'm with your mom on this one." My dad told me, but if he would just realize the truth in what I've been telling him, I wouldn't be the least bit annoyed.
"What can I do to make you believe me?"
"Bring him here." My dad had a point. I rolled my eyes and tried to think of a way to pass the time.
One hour later…
I was sitting there reading until the doorbell rang; I put the book down and raced to get the door. "Shane thanks so much for coming. It means a lot to me." I opened the door wider to let him in.
Shane greeted my parents before taking his place on the couch, next to me. I prepared for a long conversation between us. This must have been shocking to my parents. But still, my dad was going to throw question after question at Shane. This was going to be a long day.
"So Shane, tell me about yourself."
Okay, I can't decide whether or not to have the next chapter a continuation of this chapter and pick up where I left off. But I want to keep my readers interested so… what do you want to happen in the next chapter?
