Haley's p.o.v.

It was Opening Night Jam. I was suppose to be having a blast with my 3 closest (not to mention only) friends, but my eyes kept wandering back to Mitchie. Emma said that she seemed sweet and to leave her alone, while Rikki said I should give her a piece of my mind, and fist. Cleo like usual, was in-between, saying she could see how each one was thinking. I love her to death (no I'm not gay), but she just cant make a decision on her own. So while Rikki was pushing me to them, Emma was holding me back. Then Emma and Rikki got in their usual fight over who was right.

Cleo just rolled her eyes. I giggled, the walked over to her and the punch bowl.

"So what do you think I should do?" I asked.

"Like I said, I can see both points of the argument, but for now I think you should leave her alone. Just don't tell Rikki I said that." I giggled. (FYI: I giggle Shane chuckles, and yes, there is a difference)

And that was that. I decided for now just to leave Mitchie, excuse me, Bitchie alone. Its not that I let my friends make decisions for me, but I only wanted to know Cleo's opinion. At first Rikki and I were the closest because of our similar attitudes, but then Cleo and I started getting closer. I think it was because shes been through this before.

Maybe a year ago her mom left them, and her little sister Kim died in a car crash on the way back from a concert with her friends. (car crashes are a very popular way of death) So she knows how I fell because basically she did the same thing. At first she pushed away her friends and Lewis, then rejected the world. Although I have to say, I am doing a better job at being a bitch than she was. And whenever her father would go on a date, she'd do whatever she could to sabotage it. But then she eventually opened back up to us and Lewis. (but at that point the was dating Charlotte) And then the normal events took place. Lewis found out Charlotte was a psycho, and dumped her for Cleo. Yada yada Yada

Eventually she let her dad date again (something I will never let Shane do, that will last). And he ended up getting married again to Catharine Kollins, a single mother with an adorable 6 year old son. Cleo, Rikki, Emma, and I all got to be brides maids. And don't let me get started on her dress, it was so beautiful, and really complimented her body. But yet, so simple. Just a plane beach wedding dress. (link on profile, FYI: so is the Tess's custom made red Prada dress) (the model is Cleo's step mom)

I had to admit that she had a pretty good life now, but there was no way I was letting anyone else in, or allowing Shane to have a relationship.

The Jam finally started with some horrible singing by a girl called Joslyn I think. I considered singing, but decided against it. So instead I just hung out with my friends. At 9:30 my friends and I decided to go for a walk. We were having fun until I ran into the obnoxious girl with a horrible voice.

"Ugh, watch where you're going, loser." the bitch said.

"Me, the loser? At least I have enough sense to know not to cross blue with purple." I said glancing at her equally horrible outfit.

"News flash bimbo, purple is the new black, and black goes with blue." the idiotic girl said. I mean seriously, purple and blue do not go together. And she called me the bimbo.

"That just means that purple is now the new popular color, not that it will go with most colors." God this girl was really stupid. Hey! I just thought of a great name for her that I will now refer to her as. ElStupido. Its Spanish for stupid person, I think. Oh well, it will still work.

"Whatever" she said in defeat because ElStupido knew I was right.

"Wow, that has got to be the lamest comeback I have ever heard, bimbo." I said.

She turned around. "What did you just call me?" Was she death too? But before I could respond Emma stepped in.

"She said you're a bimbo. You know, a really, really stupid, normally pampered, rich girl with no brains what so ever." Wow, how knew Emma could be so mean.

"I'm not a bimbo!" she shouted.

"Lets run it through the check list, shall we?" Rikki said.

"rich?"

"check" Cleo said.

"stupid beyond belief?"

"check?" Emma said.

"terrible comebacks?"

"check" I said.

"major obsessor over someone who will never, ever like you?" Rikki said glancing at her 'future Mrs. Gray' shirt.

"check" we all chimed in.

ElStupido just grunted and ran away before we could insult her more. Oh if only someone could of seen us tell her off. Little did they know 2 people saw them

Alex's p.o.v.

"Wow, that's my roommate?" I asked Amanda. When we heard the argument going on between the girl and the other group, we crouched below bushes to watch the drama.

"Yeah, unfortunately." Amanda said.

"Great, I can wait to get back to my cabin now." I said sarcastically.

"Oh really because I'm pretty sure you can go now." Amanda said with a smirk.

"I was kidding!" I practically shouted.

"I know, but you left the door wide open." She said with another smirk.

"Whatever, lets just go in before we're caught." I said as we stood up, and walked to the entrance of the Mess Hall.

Haley's p.o.v.

We all walked to our cabin in laughs over our successful stand-off. Alone we were pretty good at comebacks, but together lord have mercy on the victim. I had no idea how tired I was. As soon we got back to our cabin, I crashed on my bed and fell asleep.

The next morning I woke up to the sound of Emma's alarm. Rikki and I both groaned. I never, ever used an alarm, and I got the feeling she didn't either. Emma laughed at our unwillingness to get up. But we finally got dragged out of bed by Cleo and Emma. Cleo chose me because she was the only one I wouldn't slap silly.

After 45 minutes in the bathroom, I came out fully dressed ready for the day. I was wearing a cute light purple baby doll top that was more like a shirt/dress, my favorite navy blue jeans, and my black and purple converse. I was also wearing my locket, (like the other girls' lockets, but with all three stones combined), charcoal earrings, and a denim jean navy hat. My hair was flattened, with small random curls at the bottom.

Cleo, Rikki, and Emma went to the Mess Hall to eat, but I wasn't hungry so I decided to stay in the cabin. I got bored and started to flip through my old song book and landed on a song I wrote almost 3 years ago. I walked over to Katie (my guitar) and started to strum the notes, and before long, started to sing.

You don't know my name. You don't know, anything about me. I tried to play nice. I wanna be in your game.

The things that you say. You may think, I never hear about them. But word travels fast. I'm telling it to your face, I'm standing her behind your back.

You don't know how it feels, to be outside the crowd. You don't know what its like, to be left out. And you don't know how it feels, to be your own best friend. On the outside looking in.

I sighed as I place my precious guitar on my bed. That was how it used to be. I was the outsider, the nobody, the girl everybody picked on. Then I met Emma. She was kind and introduced me to her 2 friends. Rikki was a little prickly at first, but then eventually warmed up to me.

One day while we were walking down the hall, Olivia (my old arch enemy, also known as miss popularity), poured a bottle of water on my head. I darted for the girls bathroom. Not thinking, I didn't lock the door, and soon Cleo came in to check on me. At first I thought she would freak out, but instead she had on a 'I so knew it' face. She soon revealed her and her 2 other friend's secret, and that afternoon we all went for a swim together. Then a highly annoying voice that I had come to know as Miley's rang through the air.

"Oh my god cus! That was amazing! So much different than your songs now." she said coming over to me. I guess she was spying on me while I played. It looked like she was about to hug me, but then though better of it.

"Smart girl" I thought. Anyone (except Shane and my buddies) who hugged me got slugged. Nate and Jason had to learn the hard way before people got the message. Lets just say Nate had a broken nose, and Jason had to wear a lot of make-up over one eye for the next 2 weeks. Since then nobody has been brave enough to hug me.

"Could you play the full song for me?" she questioned. What is up with all the stupid questions?

"Of course, absolutely…." I said then paused. Miley had a really annoyingly stupid grin on her face. "NOT!" I finished. Her smile quickly faded.

"Maybe some other time then." she said before exciting.

I smirked before putting away one of my most prized possessions. There was no way I was ever singing that song in public. Not even to Shane. Maybe Cleo, Rikki, and Emma since they understand my unpopular beginning.

I glanced at my watch. I had 10 minutes to get to class. I just laid back on my bed. Brown was my first teacher, and he wouldn't mind if I was late. All he could do is look at me disappointedly. I smirked at the thought.

Before I knew it, it was time for class to start. I slowly walked to class. When I finally arrived I was 10 minutes late. Brown gave me the look that I imagined. Of course that only made me giggle.

"You think arriving to my class late is funny?" he asked, trying to be serious. He was failing miserably. And that only made me giggle more. After being elbowed be Emma, Rikki got up from her seat to lead me away before I did anything I would regret. The whole way back I couldn't stop giggling.

"In future, be on time for my class, Mrs. Gray." he said. Ugh, I hate it when people call me that! It makes me feel so old.

"Yeah, yeah, sure." I said. He just shook his head and continued. I zoned out for the class. It was a bad decision giving me the seat by the window. Then Brown snapped me back to reality.

"Haley?" he said picking me.

"Yeah, what?" I asked wondering what was going on. The kid in front of me laughed. Big mistake. I kicked his back, sending him out of his chair.

"OWWW, Brown, she kicked me." he said pointing to me. What are we, in kindergarten? If he was going to be immature, so was I.

"No I didn't!" I said crossing my arms.

"Do we have to start the violence this early in the morning Haley?" Brown asked me annoyed.

"Yes" Cleo responded for me. Sending the whole class into laughter.

"Whatever, what was the question?" I asked.

"It wasn't a question, I volunteered you to come up and sing for us."

Then I saw Miley turn around and look at me. Oh great, she probably told Brown that I was singing an really old song and she wanted to hear all of it. Well I was going to sing alright, it just wasn't what they wanted. I quickly shot Miley a dirty look before walking up to the front of class. This time Brown smirked.

You're hot n you're cold. You're yes and you're no. You're in and you're out. You're up and you're down. You're wrong when its right. Its black and its white. We fight we breakup, we kiss we makeup. You don't really want to stay, no. But you, you don't really want to go. Cuz you're hot n you're cold. You're yes and you're no. you're in and you're out. You're up and you're down.

I smirked at Miley and Brown. They wanted an original, I gave them an original, just not the one they wanted. I walked back to my seat. 5 minutes after I sat down I started to zone out again. But once again Brown snapped me back in reality. This time it was with the words 'you're free to go'. He didn't have to say more, nor did he have time to say more before I was out the door. Soon the girls caught up to me as we walked back to our cabin for the 15 minute breaks we got in-between classes.

The rest of the day went by smoothly, well for me. I gave my teachers hell. So much of it that they decided I wasn't worth the effort and allowed me to zone out like I wanted to. Only Nate (who was also a counsler this year) tried to get me involved in the stupid pitch class. I already knew how to control my tempo, so I refused. Finally he gave a sigh of defeat and moved on.

By the time lunch came I was starving. When my friends and I came into the Mess Hall, I spotted Miley, Shane, and the others signaling me to sit with them. I didn't feel like being with the weird kids, and my brother, so I chose an empty table for my friends and I to sit at.

The next period we all had different classes, so we had to split up. As I was walking to my next class I ran into Miley. Then out of the corner of my eye I noticed an insanely hot guy standing next to her.

"Hi Haley! This is my friend Thomas." she said gesturing to the hunky guy standing next to her. (picture Lucas Till)

"Yeah, hi" I replied as I normally would. Just because he was hot didn't mean he got special treatment.

Miley's p.o.v.

When I introduced Thomas to Haley, she didn't seam like she cared. However, I couldn't help but notice how he was staring at her. Hmm, maybe there was a future for them. An evil smile played over my face. This summer I was going to play matchmaker.

"Well bye." Haley said before walking off.

"Yeah, we better be getting going." I said gesturing Thomas to our next class.

As we were walking away out of the corner of my eye, I saw Thomas look back at Haley. He didn't seem to care about her rudeness. Well that is just lucky, because most people do.

Mitchie's p.o.v.

Unfortunately I had most of the same classes with Haley, but she was to busy fighting with the teachers and day dreaming to notice me, I guess. The only reason she probably acts like that is because she knows she can. Being the fact the her uncle runs the camp.

Since Haley was ignoring me, my day went smoothly. That was until I ran into Joslyn on my way to class.

"Watch where your going, nerd." she said.

"Why don't you?"

"Excuse me?" she asked.

"Your excused, now I'm on my way to class." I said, but before I could walk away, she grabbed my arm.

"I demand that you apologize to me!" she said in a snobby voice.

"Yeah, and while I'm at it I'll go hang myself." I said sarcastically.

"You should." she said.

"You see I would, but then you wouldn't have a rope." I said.

"What?" she asked clueless.

"You'll need a rope out here. You never know when you'll need to tie up a trap or prevent a bear from getting you things."

"BEARS!?! NOBODY SAID ANYTHING ABOUT BEARS!" Was she really that retarded?

"Yep, I saw one in the woods, right by your cabin the other day." I said. Joslyn looked terrified. I quickly turned away before she could see my smirk. Joslyn was an idiot. I don't know how she has a 4.0.

My next class was Shane's, then I was free for the day. We did a hip hop routine, and this time he was a lot nicer.

As I was walking away, Shane caught up to me.

"Hey gorgeous." he said as he put his arm around my shoulder.

"Hey popstar." I said as he kissed my cheek.

"Its rockstar." he corrected.

"Yeah, sure." He just sighed and laughed.

"So, you up for a canoe ride?" Shane asked as we neared the dock.

"Why I would love one." I said all fancy. He laughed and we started getting ready to go on the lake.

10 minutes later we were out doing circles on the lake. That was kind of our thing.

"So how was your morning?" he asked.

"OK, but a lot better now." I said.

"I heard you had Haley in most of your classes. So what did she do, and be honest." Shane said.

"Oh where to begin? Well, she was 10 minutes late for her first class with Brown, zoned out of the lesson, kicked a guys back, and sang a song that was not what he wanted to hear, oh and she shot Miley several dirty looks." I said.

"Wow, who knew she could cause so much trouble?" he said, then added "don't answer that."

"That was only her first class. She refused to take part in anything, and by the time she got to her 4 class, the teacher jumped a little when she entered. When she asked why she did that, the teacher said there was a beware of Haley sign in the counselor's room."

"Oh yeah, I saw that, but thought it was a joke." Shane said.

"After that the only person who actually tried to get her evolved in the class was Nate. She refused and threatened to give him a dead knee if he didn't leave her alone. Finally he gave up and moved on with the lesson." Shane just chuckled and said "that's Haley for you."

"Yeah so I've heard. Is it true that if you hug her, she'll slug you." I asked.

"I think you should ask Jason's right eye and Nate's nose. Both could answer that question."

"Wow. Ok now I am officially scarred of your sister." I said

"As long as I'm around, you shouldn't be. I will never let her do anything to hurt you." he said.

"Really?"

"Really."

We started to lean in, but before we could kiss our canoe flipped over.

Haley's p.o.v.

I was walking down to the dock to go for a swim. We had been there for 2 days and I hadn't snuck a swim yet, I couldn't believe myself. I was about to dive in when I noticed Shane and Mitchie on a canoe. I glared at the 2. They seemed so happy, something I couldn't let Shane feel with any other girl but me. I quickly dove in the water and got as close to the canoe as possible without them seeing me.

I overheard Mitchie say "Ok now I am officially scarred of your sister."

I smirked, she should be. I couldn't hear what Shane said, but whatever it was it made her feel better and they started to lean in. I quickly took control of the water and tipped the canoe. At first I thought I won, but then they started laughing and having fun. Soon enough they were kissing. Oh she was going to pay big time for this. But before I could do anything else, I decided to get out of there before I was spotted.

Mitchie won……this round.

Hi guys! Sorry there hasn't been much Smitchie. I promise there will be more in the next chapter. Read and Review! Peace out,

Janet
