I am so incredibly sorry for the Nate Gray mistake. hopefully this part will have less mistakes. ENJOY some Smitchie =]

Disclaimer: I only own Justin Rastelli and the story, nothing else.

Caitlyn literally jumped to Mars as I expected. I needed to cover her mouth to stop her from screaming and attracting attention. I dont blame the girl who wouldnt do that after finding out that the Grays are her best friends neighbour, her best friend had gone to their home and Nate Gray had come over to hers....and Shane.....she couldnt stop blabbering on about him. She thinks that he likes me, I wish!

"Hey Caity, I forgot to tell you something" I said as I sat up on the counter near the sinks. "Nate said that you'r beautiful."

"WHAT!? Aaaahhhhhhhhh" She screeched. I think she lost her voice there. "What the fuck???" She asked in disbelief. I guess not then, after all how could Caitlyn lose her voice? The Caitlyn that cannot stop talking 24/7. So much for me thinking that.

"You heared me" I smirked, trying to get her annoyed.

"Mitchelle Emily Torres, you spit everything out now or I'll drag your little butt out of the school premises to my house and kidnap you, and dont think I'm afraid of using third degree cause I will if necessary! I wanna know everything missy, word-to-word even if it takes all day, even if you have to miss music class with Mr. Shane gorgeous Gray.

I laughed so hard I could feel tears running down my cheeks. "Isn't it the police that uses thrid degree, not kidnappers?" i joked between breaths.

"Shut the fuck up girl, and speak!" She ordered and I obliged.

It took the whole of first period to explain what had happened and to keep Caitlyn under control. I swear, if I wasn't there she would probably run around screaming in the hallways "Nate Gray thinks I'm beautiful!", yeah I know, my friend's a little crazy........so am I.

As soon as the bell rang for second period, my heart raced much faster than a normal humans does, I could feel my palms get sweaty and my face flushed with redness. My first class with Shane Gray as the teacher starts now. This is going to be fun. Not.

I had to drag Caitlyn out of the bathroom otherwise she would have sat there all day in her own utopia.

"Come on Caity, music is in like three minutes we cannot be late in the first class we have with them." I reminded.

"Hold your horses, I'm comming."

I spotted Justin in the hallway on my way to music.I ran upto him from behind hugging his back. "Jus, you'll never guess what." I said.

"Shane Gray asked you to marry him?" He joked.

I hit his arm with a smile on my face "No, not yet, but maybe sometime in the future Mr. Rastelli, but for now he's my new neighbour!"

"how come you're not...."

"How are we not getting late now Miss. Torres?" Caitlyn asked cutting Justin off. "Jus, we'll talk to you at lunch, music time now!"

"More like drooling time" He shouted behind us.

The class was full by the time we got there. I had never seen so many people in music class before, normally there would be a few familiar faces and thats all, but today the room was packed with over enthusiastic students gossiping about the Grays. I heared a girl say they smiled at her, another girl said they said 'Hi'. I swear that girl was going to faint soon....dont wanna sit anywhere near her. I dont blame them I would take any subject in the world if I knew the Gray brothers would be my teacher.

"Hey come on, there are seats over there" Caitlyn said as she pointed towards the back of the classroom.

I sighed in grief. I hated sitting at the back during music class and I'm not saying this because the Grays are teaching, honestly I hate sitting at the back during music cause I love it so much I want to learn more and more about it not sit at the back and stare at peoples heads.

Before I could complain the whole class came to a sudden silence. I turned to find the three heartrobs standing behind me. As usual my heart beat increased to 100 beats per second and my breathing got uneven.

Nate threw a huge grin my way, I swear it was the size of America. I could hear some girls whisper "Bitch" at me, under their breaths while the whole class gasped. I didn't dare look at Shane because I knew I would go weak in the knees and have no power to utter a single word, but Shane was smiling I could sense it without looking at him, he did seem a little surprised that I had music though. Maybe he though I was like half of the class who signed up for music just so that they could stare at Connect 3 all day, but I wasn't I hope he knew that. I just returned a smile to Jason and Nate and quickly took my seat next to Caitlyn.

Now that I was stable and in my seat I looked up at him and for the first time in two days noticed what he was wearing. He looked enticing in a simple white T-shirt and dark blue skinny jeans. He looked good in anything her wore, wait, let me rephrase that....he could make anything he wore look good. That sounds more like Shane Gray, right?

I could see most of the girls drooling over them. Caitlyn was blushing and I looked over to the front to see Nate staring at her. Real smooth Nate....real smooth.

"Good morning guys" Jason started. "So. from now on, till the end of the year we will be your music teachers."

" is still in charge of music, but we'll be taking all the classes" Nate announced. was our old music teacher and I loved him, he was great!

"I will be taking singing and song writing class, where as Nate.." Shane said looking towards his left "will be teaching you guys piano andd Jason the guitar." He spoke, his voice music to my ears. I hadnt noticed till I looked at myself that I was grining like a idiot, seriously. I needed to tell my cheeks from grinning, but they wouldnt listen.

"Today it will be singing and you'll be given a assignment at the end of class, so we'll start off with some warming up.." Shane said. "and guys, I'm as human as you guys are, so please dont hesitate or be shy to ask questions" He smiled. Oh that smile......I swear I felt like screaming at the top of my voice when I saw that smile, I just needed to get my enthusiasm out.

With that Nate and Jason left the classroom. Great, now all I had to do was stare at him, just great! I tried real hard to listen to what he was saying, I really did, but I couldnt. I got too engrossed in his golden brown eyes I felt like I was in a land of my own, somewhere where there was only Shane and I, somewhere where there were no screaming fans, no distraction, only us. Hah, so much daydreaming isn't good Mitchie. I heared my mind say to me.

After a fifteen minute warming up session I felt like my voice was 10 times better thatn it had ever been. This really was working. Joe wanted to see what he was working with this year so he decided to call everyone one-by-one at the front of the classroom to sing. I could feel rivulets of sweat fall down my forehead and my body shiver. I didn't want to do this. I knew I would blow it, I just wasnt ready to sing in front of him. I really didnt care about the whole class hearing me, most of the old students had already heared me sing a thousand times so it wasnt anything new performing infront of them it was just him that I was worried about. Most of the class was rubbish other than a few old students. Hey, I'm modest here.

Shane praises everyone, good or bad. I liked him even more now, if that is possible.

I didn't want to make a fool out of myself while singing in front of him, not so soon.

He called my name "Mitche Torres." He smiled and I felt my heart beat stop for the 5th time in two days, or was it the 6th? I've stopped counting now. This boy definately had the most powerful effect on me, it's like he has me hypnotised, just by his mere presence. Not good, not good at all.

All heads turned towards me and I smiled my best smile at him and got out of my seat, still trembling.

"Blow him off his feet Mitch." Caitlyn whispered in my ear with a huge smirk on her face.

I smiled weakly at her and made my way to the front of the class where Shane greeted me with yet another smile. Dont do that Shane you're making me nervous. I whispered in my mind, but it was like he could hear me and he stopped. Thank you.

"So, Mitchie what are you going to sing for us today?" He asked in the most melodius voice.

I stuttered for a few seconds staring at Caitlyn who was smiling so bright, she could put the sun to shame.

"I'm singing one of my own songs." I declared. I was confident now.

He looked impressed. He had that look on his face which said oh-so-she-writes-songs-too-?. I couldnt help but let out a little laughter at his expression as I picked up one of the many guitars stacked at the side of the classroom.

I chose a song I had written a few years ago for him. I actually remember laughing when I first wrote this song that it would be so amazing if he ever got to hear it, and here I am today standing a few feet away from the guy I wrote this song for, holding a guitar ready to show him what I'm made of.

I strumed the guitar and started singing.

"I'd never gone with the wind,

just let it flow,

let it take me where it wants to go,

till you open the door,

there's so much more,

I'd never seen it before,

I was tryin' to fly,

but I couldnt find my wings,

you came along,

and you changed everything.

You lift my feet off the gruond,

spin me around,

you make me crazier, crazier,

feels like i'm fallin',

but im lost in your eyes

you make me crazier, crazier, crazier..."

I shot a quick glance at him from the corner of my eye as the whole class roared in applause, but I didnt care. All I wanted to know was did he like it?

"Mitchie, that was great!" He praised. ofcourse it was you idiot, it's about you. "I've never heared anything like it. It was full of emotion and feeling. keep up the great work."

I felt like I was on cloud nine. There starts the goofy grinning again. I couldnt concentrate on anyone else as they each came up and sang. The two hours seemed to fly by so quickly and I didn't think I got enough of Shanes eyes, I needed to stare at them more, they were entoxicating and I was addicted to them.

"Okay, so guys I'm going to be giving you homework today." He announced and the whole class immediately sighed in greif. "Dont worry guys, its nothing really. I just want you guys to write a song. No biggie. I want to see how much talent yuo guys have hidden in there." He smiled. Oh, stop doing that Shane, yeah I want you to smile and be happy but your really making it hard for me to have any self control over here. "and remember, song writting is not anything that can be taught its feelings and you cant learn how to feel something. Just grab a diary, journel, or even a tissue and write down how you're feeling, try and make it rhyme, if it doesn't its not a problem, but just try."

The bell rang for fourth period and it was like chaos. The whole class sprinted for the door, papers flying everywhere and noise once again.

"Mitch, I have History"

"Math for me"

"Ohkay then, see you at lunch Mitch" and with that she left the room.

There were only a few people left in the room. Four precisely, Shannon, Shane, Tess and I. I hate Tess, she's such a drama queen and always trying to attract everyones attention, bitch. The bitch was talking to him. I hated seeing him with her it made my blood boil and my whole face turn red in anger, I know he is well out of my reach, but hey, I'm human, I dream.

"Hey Mitchie." Shane called after me as I made my way towards the door. Did he just call my name, or was I just hullucinating? I turned around just incase my mind wasnt playing games on me and saw him looking at me...Oh, so he did call me. All my anger vanished the instant I saw his beautiful face, my eyes lost in his once again.

"Shane, I see you later honey." Tess said in a seductive tone. It disgusted me. I officially hate her much more than it is humanly possible to hate anyone I said to myself.

Tess walked out the room with the other girl leaving only the two of us. I smiled at Shane weakly as he approached me. He was so close I could smell the mixture of his cologne and own body smell burning into my nostrils. I think i forgot how to breathe for a good 10 seconds before her spoke agan.

"Mitchie are you okay? you suddnly dont seem too good." Ofcourse I dont, I'm standing so close to you duh.

"Yeah, im good. Alive and Kicking" I joked.

"You were amazing today, the best out of the batch and I'm not supposed to have favourites, I'm the teacher." He laughed. "I had to acknowledge your talent, Mitchie. You are insanely talented and you have such a great voice.....it eases the pain."

"Eases the pain?" I asked with one eyebrow up. What did he mean? "I'm sorry for asking, you dont have to tell me if you dont want to Shane.." I absent mindedly put my hand on his elbow, reasuuring him that everything would be alright eventhough I, myself did not know exactly what had happened.

"Maybe some other time Mitchie...dont you have class now?" He asked, smiling that fake smile again. I wanted to tell him to cut the crap, I know your not happy dude so dont fake being happy infront of me, but that would be too intense since I have only know him like, what? 23 hours? yeah not very long of a time.

I shot another undersatnding glance at him, still smiling and left for Math.

I knew I was late for lunch when I stepped into the canteen. I had so much to tell Justin and I felt I'd blurt it all out to the first person I could find if i didnt tell him soon.

I looked over at our table and instead of the normal two people sitting there, there were five. Yes, Connect 3 were sitting at our table talking away with Justin and Caitlyn, well Caitlyn mostly talking to Nate. I sat at the side of the tabe next to Justin and opposite Shane.

"Hey Mrs-" Justin blurted out forgetting we were sitting with the Mr. of the Mrs he was talking about.

"your so dead after school, Jus" I whispered in his ear.

"Hey Mitchie!" They all greeted.

"Hi guys, whats going on?" I asked curiously dipping some ketchup into my fries. Yeah, I know fries yesterday and fries today, you must have guessed by now that I'm not a healthy eater.

"By the way Jason, this is Mitchie" Nate introduced.

"Mitchie, it's so nice to finally meet you. I have heared wonders about your voice." Jason stated.

I looked at Shane who seemed as embarrassed as I was.

"We were just talking about dinner today, you commin' Mitchie?" Shane asked.

"It depends on who's going"

"Everyone but Justin here, he says he has football practice" he exclaimed "You sure dude? It would be nice to have another person with us"

"I'm sorry guys, next time okay?" Justin apoligized.

____

I drove home with a huge grin plastered on my face. I was going to go to dinner with Shane, well, technically with Connect 3 and Caitlyn, but what the heck? He was going to be there.

As soon as the reached the front gate I saw the whole family at the front porch. Oh shit, I totally forgot dad was going to Europe today for a meeting and possibly finalizing a new deal. I jumped out of my mustang just in time before Moe, our driver was going to drive dad to the airport.

"I thought I wouldn't see my little princess before I leave." My fathers face liting up as soon as he saw me.

I hugged him tight. "I'm sorry dad I, completely forgot otherwise I would have some home early."

"It's okay honey, you got here just in time." My mother assured.

"Yaaa Misheeee, daddy no gone yet." Macy exclaimed playing with my mothers locket while in her arms.

We all did a group hug and dad was gone. I looked over to see if the Gray brothers had arrived yet, but I couldnt see their car, so I guess not.

After eating I sat around in my room waiting for the clock to turn 5:30pm. tick tock, tick tock, tick tock it trailed off, but 5:30pm did not seem to come any closer. Finally when It turned 5:30pm I opend my closet in search of something good to wear. I had already mentally planned out what I would wear, but I still looked around to see if I could find anything better.

In the end I decided to wear what I had first planned, Black skinney jeans and a simple royal blue T-shirt with a beige jacket on top. I straighted my hair which was actually just wasting electricity since my hair was already extremely straight and would refuse to go any more and applied a nude shade on my lip and some lipgloss.

We all had planned that Caitlyn would come over to my place and we would leave from here.

"Whoa! Someones looking hot today." She screeched as she entered my room.

I smiled at her complextion. Her curls looking curlier than usual and her tiny frame wearing a casual hot pink dress.

"yeah, but Nate will have to call the fire brigade for you honey..." I laughed.

Caitlyns face turned the shade of her dress in embarrassment. 'It would have been great if Jus was here too though."

"Yeah.." I laughed as I remembered what I did to him after school. I pretened to hug him while I actually put a sticker on his back that stated 'I like guys who are not afraid to wear pink.'

I heared the doorbell ring and my heart simuntaniously started beating faster. "Mitchie, Caitlyn its for you." My mother shouted.

We walked down the stairs to see the three of them smiling upon us.

"ready?" Nate asked. I guess it was specifically for Caitlyn so I didnt bother reply, I just smiled. Hey. I'm good at that.

"You look pretty Mitchie." Shane complimented. Wait, did Shane Gray just say I look pretty?

I blushed in respnd as the other two brothers agreed. "Caitlyn looks killer though!" Nate exclaimed, but immediately covered his mouth, regretting what he just said.

"Did that come out too loud?" He asked, embarrassed.

"Yes, it did my brother. Yes it did" Jason said patting his brothers shoulder.

We all went in one car. Jason and Shane at the front while Caitlyn, Nate and I sat at the back. This was all surreal. Three days ago I would dream about meeting them and now I'm here going to dinner with them.

Jason parked infront of a Italian resturant and we all got out.I felt my hand brush against Shanes arm as Caitlyn pushed me out of the car. It was like electricity was pumping through my veins. He looked at me as if he felt it too, but I just smiled. Enough of that now Mitchie.

"Hey guys....." Nate said before we enetered the brightly lit resturant.

"Yeah?"

"I was wondering if...if..you..." He rambled and I couldnt help but laugh.

"Dude what is it? Dont be shy, im so hungry just hurry up and tell us what you need to." Shane ordered.

"Do you guys mind if Caitlyn and I...umm we sit on our own?" He asked, it sounded like for permission and I found it so cute. I looked over at Caitlyn who was blushing and smiled at my friend. She was happy.

"sure, you kids do what you like..." Jason cackled.

Every single soul in the resturant turned their head towards us as we entered. I could feel several girls glares piercing through me while others examined every inch of my body making me feel self concious and uneasy. Thankfully we sat at the extreme end of the resturant where most people could not see us. I sat by myself as Shane and Jason sat opposite me.

My uneasiness vanished as we started talking. I felt so comfortable with them feeling like I have known them for years.

"So Mitchie, are you a fan?" Shane inquired while we waited for the starter to arrive.

Wait, let me think. Am I a fan? Well I have a whole room stacked with Connect 3 goods, I listen to your music everyday and have bought every single album you guys have released. I dream of you guys, well mostly Shane every night and live to hear your music. Am I a fan? I think so.

"Yeah I am" I confesses twirling my straw in my coke.

Jasons phone started rining and he had to excuse himself for a while leaving the two of us, me crazy Mitchie with insamely gorgeous Shane.

"Hey guys I'm so sorry I have to leave I have some important work to attend to, I'm sorry Mitchie. I'll see you tomorrow at school okay? I'm leaving the car for you guys." and with that Jason came and left.

"Jason.."I heared Shane murmur under his breath.

"Is he always like that? you know, in a hurry?" I asked curiously.

"Yeah most of the time.." Shane laughed.

I looked around the resturant to see if I could spot Caitlyn or Nate, but with no luck. All I could see was over excited girls giving me deth glares.

"I dont think this is the best place to be, those girls look like they are ready to kill" Shane joked. "Lets go somewhere else..?"

"No, we dont have to. You can drop me home. I'll be fine." I insisted.

"No, Shane Gray does not take a girl out for dinner and drop her home without getting her anything to eat." He smiled.

I smiled back. "Where do you wanna go?" I asked.

"How about we get some food from Mcdonalds and then eat by the beach?"

"Sounds great!" I smiled.

Shane paid for what we had ordered and escorted me out of the resturant. Paparazzi were already lined outside and I could feel light bulbs being flashed at my face. He protectivly wrapped his arms around my shoulder as he opend the passanger door for me and I willingly sliped in, still blinded by the lights. He sat in the drivers seat and we drove off. Bliss.

Okay so this is a long chapter I wantedto include what happens in the beach but it would get too long so I posted this much. Stay tuned for the next chapter cause something big happens.

Like it? Hate it? Review and let me know!

would like atleast 5 reviews please!!!
