"Ok, settle down" Dee La Duke, the camp director spoke into the microphone. The noise died down, but the anticipation and excitement of the campers were as high as ever. Every person there wanted to know who the special mentors were for the summer. Besides Suzie, who was standing in front of the stage, trying not to burst into tears.
"So camp rockers, its time for me to introduce our special guests. Please give it up for Connect 3!" screams filled the air and the 'special guests' practically waltzed onto the stage. Even though there was 3 boys in the band, Suzie only had eyes for Nate. She knew she was staring, her eyes not leaving him. Caitlyn nudged her in the ribs.
"Ow, what was that for?" Suzie rubbed her side.
"If you don't want people to know, stop staring at him like he's a sex god" Caitlyn whispered.
"Ok then" Suzie said and the girls laughed.
"Shhhhhh, they're about to sing" Mitchie hissed.
All the campers listened inventively to the boys on stage. Shane gestured for Nate to start talking. He moved up to the microphone and cleared his throat.
"Hey we are Connect 3 obviously and we are so delighted to be here! This is where it all began, the place where we started, so if you try really hard you can make it. Any questions?" he asked, skimming the crowd. Dozens of hands shot up, and Nate sighed. After a few minutes, there was only one arm left in the air, which belonged to Mitchie. Nate knew her face because his brother, Shane didn't stop talking about her after her mentored at camp rock the year before.
"Heya Mitchie, what's your question?" Nate said, moving towards her and her friends. Nate's heart stopped when he saw her. The girls' heart he broke, but never meant to. The muse behind all the smash hits he had written was standing right in front of him. The girl he was still in love with. It's Suzie he thought. Their eyes met for a second, then Mitchie started talking, which broke them both out of the daydream.
"Hey Nate, this is Caitlyn and that is Suzie but of course you know that"
Suzie gave her a look that would put Satan to shame.
"My question is do you have any regrets?"
"I actually do. Only one though. There was this girl I used to date. We went out for around 3 years, she was my world. But when I formed Connect 3, I totally abandoned her. I don't want to think I lost her forever, but I want her to give me a second chance" Nate concluded, looking straight at Suzie and smiling. That smile made her weak at the knees.
"Which brings me to the song we are about to sing. It's called 'Staying With Me' and yes, it's about that girl" he continued.
In unison, Shane and Jason walked up to the microphones on either sides of Nate.
"And a 1,2,1,2,3,4" Shane counted in. a slow beat echoed through the camp, and Nate's angelic voice oozed out the speakers.
"All she wanted was love,
I didn't try at all,
All I did was make her cry,
Sorry didn't cut it no more.
But I love her so much,
She just needs to see,
Baby by just Staying With Me'
Everyone started to cheer.
"what an amazing song" Caitlyn said in awe.
Suzie couldn't contain her emotions anymore. She started to sob quietly. Nate realised and looked into her eyes but even he couldn't calm her down.
"I CANT TAKE THIS NO MORE!" she screamed, stopping the band in their tracks. Suzie stole one more glance at Nate, she made her way through the crowd then ran off to her cabin to cry.
It's getting interesting now, so stay tuned! Tomorrow is Australia day, just wanted to let you guys know. I have written the next 4 chapters to this in my book, but im totally stuck now. I want Caitlyn to have a bigger role. Any ideas? Hit the big green button!! Peace (yn)
