As soon as I woke up in the morning, I quickly went to my bedroom and messed my bed up to make it look like it had been slept in. Then, I went downstairs and got a glass of juice and made my way out front.

The beach was deserted which made it look kind of scary. It looked like one of those scenes out of those horror movies when the heroine is running and ends up at some deserted place with the killer after her. What if I drowned? No one would even be there to notice. I just stood there at the top of the stairs on the front porch staring at the blue water, aimlessly. I did that for half an hour and didnt even notice my legs were tired from standing up for so long even though I hadnt moved an inch from my positon.

I decided that I wasnt exactly all that happy with Shanes movie coming out. Yes, I was happy that he was moving forward in his career, but I didnt want that if he was going to be around Cheryl. Call me shelfish, because I am. I'm also a little jealous. Okay, yeah I'm very jealous. This stupid movie meant that Shane wouldnt be in Miami as much, I mean he would have to be because he has to teach at school, but maybe they'll get a substitue or something, since Shane and the rest of the gang would have to be in LA for its promotion.

LA was the place where Cheryl was. His crazy, pycho bitch of an ex would be around him and they'd have to act like best buddies smiling in pictures, TOGETHER! What if they made them do some stupid PR thing where they'd have to act like they're together? I would throw a fit, I dont know how I would feel, but the throwing a fit part was confirmed. Actually, Forget the throwing a fit part and the jealousy part, my main reason was that I was afraid he'd forget about me when he got around Cheryl.

Maybe I could tell Nate everything and he'd spy on Shane for me. Would he actually do it, considering the fact that Shane is his brother? What if Nate and Jason dont even go at all? I mean Shane is the main character in the movie and Nate just started school, or is about to start school and Jason is going to be the only other member of Connect three left to teach. What if they both stay behind and Shane has to be alone with bitch Cheryl? Here comes my fit again....I hate her no matter what I may say to Shane. He knows that but I'd never tell him that I'm afraid he'll forget about me. It would hurt my ego too much. End of discussion.

While I was still in my mental conflict Shane came down and asked if I wanted to go church with him. I dont usually go to church. Its just something I dont do. I'm not religious at all, in fact, growing up the only times I remember going to church was at someones funeral or at someones wedding. There would never be those Sundays when mom or dad would wake up and say lets go to church kids! Not one. I still agreed on going though.

By the time we reached there, it was still to early for anyone to actually be there. The shops across the street form the church had just started to open and we manged to go, pray and come out without being noticed. I hadn't really expreianced much of the craziness stars have to go through because of thier fans, other than the death glares I used to recieve at school or the one or two that still come my way occasionally.

Both of us were stupid enough to leave our phones back at the beach house, it wasnt like we needed it so we weren't too worried, but when we got back from church, hoping that everyone was still sleeping, everyone had already gone on that stupid ship. Everyone but Silver. I didnt know what time we were supposed to be leaving so dont blame me here. It didnt even seem like we had spent so much time at the church, but apparently we had. And apparently they all tried calling us, but our phones weren't with us and they had to leave, because the longer they took to leave, the later they would return at night, and Caity and I had to be back home by tonight.

School tomorrow! Its Nate's first day, I might even take my digital camera to keep the memories. How thoughtful of me.

Silver said Caity was mad at me because of my non-exsistance in the morning and I knew I was in trouble. She stayed behind so that there would be someone at the beach house whenever we returned. She didnt seem pissed and I knew she wasnt interested in seeing the coast or whatever, but she knew. She knew about Shane and me. I'm guessing Caity did too, thats why she was supposedly mad I guess. I was happy she was gone because I didnt want to face her at the moment.

Silver on the other hand hadnt been so harsh on us, but she did catch us off guard.

"Hey Mitch, I have this great idea for a game." She said as I made my little smoothie again, this time in their kitchen. Shane was too busy making some calls outside.

All this time since we came back I was surprised she wasnt saying anything about us. I was waiting for something. "What sorta game?"

"Oh this little thing I like to call 'how about Shane and Micthie stop pretending they're not dating.' Whaddaya say, Mitch it sounds pretty cool to me, you wanna play?" I knew she'd come out with some sort of a witty remark like that. It was typical Silver.

"Are you talking about a dream you had last night because as far as I know Shane likes you and I like Greg. Thats how it works..." I smirked at myself, happy with my answer.

I knew she knew and she knew I knew, but I didnt want her to be the first person that I told. Dont get me wrong I like Silver, but Caity is my best friend. I'd like to tell her first.

The gang got home by 10pm and no one said a word about us ditching, no one. Not even Caity. They were all busy dancing and discussing about how much fun they had or how much fish they caught. Caity didnt seem mad. She seemed the same, happy and jumpy. She didnt speak about me ditching either. And somehow I thought it was a concious decision. I dont know and I didnt want to ask her about it because after hiding it from her for so long I'm afraid of telling her the truth.

Okay, so lets just rewind here a little.

I'm afraid Shane's gonna forget about me once he's in LA promoting the movie with crazy bitch and I'm afraid to tell Caity about us. The next thing I'm gonna say is I'm afraid of candyfloss.

On our way back home Jason insisted on driving because apparently he did not trust the rest of the three teens that were with him. How nice of him to offer, right? I didnt mind though even if it was my ride. I made Caity and Shane sit at the back together while I sat in the passenger seat next to Jason, just to make sure I didnt give Caity anything to talk about. Jason on the other hand was blabing on and on about how much he enjoyed seeing the ocean and how awesome the ship was.

Honestly I didnt care. I had other things to worry about - this stupid movie coming out, Cheryl woodcoff and why the hell Davide was blowing up my phone calling so much. I swear he called like thirty times in the past eight hours just to ask how I was. Dude, I'm alive, that should be enough!

After dropping Caity off, Jason drove all three of us home where we all parted saying our goodbyes.

I went straight to bed, excited for school the next day after showing my face to mom and dad assuring them that Jason and Shane hadn't kidnapped me or murdered me yet. Parents.

Nate offered me a ride to school the next day, you know to save gas since we live in the same area and since not much of it will be left by the time our children will be our age. Okay, more because Nate wanted to come to school looking cool and all because I am so awesome and I have this rep for being so popular. Not. Mostly because he didnt want to go to is first day of highscool with his brothers, who also happen to be teachers there, even if they are the same age as some of the students. And he didnt even have to make an impression on everyone as someone cool, he was Nate freaking Gray for crying out loud - a memeber of Connect three! With those two tags he was cool without even being born, but I guess he was starting to get the highschool air where all you wanna do is fit in, even if you are a world famous, millionair rockstar, so he turned to me, the ever so dependable Micthie Torres. So much for saving gas while his brothers also went to the same destination as him in a different car.

"Nate smile please!....at least in this picture!" I urged as he kept his eyes still glued onto the road.

"Do you know the percentage of teens who die each year just because they had their eyes off the road for a mere second?" I rolled my eyes, pressing the capture button on my phone. Me being me forgot to take my digital camera admist all of this excitement. I felt like I was driving my son to his first day of school, like a proud mommy. Okay, I didnt feel like that but you get what I mean right? So its mobile phone camera to the rescue.

"I dont know how Caity deals with you."

"I dont know how Sha-Caity deals with you either." He threw at me.

Oh dear lord. He knows? Maybe I'll just take that as a slip of tounge by Nate and pretend I didnt hear that he nearly mentioned Shane.

"Whatever." I rolled my eyes again, shoving the camera in his face. "Smile!"

Nate shook his head, finally giving up and looking my way, boasting a sarcastic smile on his face. "So here we are!" I exclaimed happily as he pulled into the already packed school parking lot. A lot of people were roaming around just to check out how Nate turned up on his official first day at school. I think most of them were standing in the parking lot just to see if the rumours were actually true and to see if he actually did turn up. It didnt stop me from being me though. I was still busy taking pictures of him taking the keys out of the igniton, carrying his school bag on one shoulder and getting out of the car. Maybe I should make a scrapbook out of all the pictures I took and title it "Nate's first day at Highschool." Okay, yeah now I sounded like a mom. At least I was proud mom!

"Okay okay okay....my last picture for the next three minutes, Nate!" I announced as I made my way to the front of the car where he already was, waiting for me to join him. He didnt seem to care that half of the school population was starting at us, well him and I was revieving the death glares I missed so much from half of the girls. You'd think that after having Connect three in your school for a couple of months already you'd be used to them, but apparently not.

"Okay, make it quick I dont wanna be late to my first class on my first day of highschool." He jumped a little excitedly at the last part and I couldnt help but giggle at my friends excitement.

"Hold your horses son, your proud mother wishes to be in the picture too!" I joked as I stood next to him, extending my hand out and taking a picture of the both of us. I could have easily asked any of the two hundered students staring at us to take the picture but they'd probably just steal my phone and sell all of my pictures to some gossip site. No thank you.

"Welcome to the most scandalous place after Hollywood, we like to call it Highschool"

Caity made Justin flirt with the lady who works at the school office so that she made sure all of Nates classes were either with her or me or Davide - with at least one person he knows. That was kind of sweet of Caity though....you know to look out for her boyfriend like that. Luckily for Nate, most of his classes were with moi. More than with Caity actually. I was happy that I had someone at Haisen's Spanish class who would understand all of the tourture I endure from her. One can only understand when they're going through it. Hah...you know my motto, If I'm going through hell might aswell take a Connect three member down with me.

Caity was waiting by the lockers for us to arrive, greeting Nate with a kiss while I didnt even get a hug. Way to go Caity forget your best friend when your boyfriends around. They were offical, meaning the magazines can snap pictures of them and they wouldnt get into trouble. I'm jealous just to let you know. Well, at least I was sharing m death glares with Caity now. Score!

"So, Mitch did you have fun with Caity on saturday?" Davide asked as I took another bite of my grilled chicken sandwich. Yes, no fries for me today. I deserve a prize for resisting my temptation for fried food.

"Yeah.." I said, absentmindedly as I took another picture of all of us at the lunch table. "Hey, guys smile!"

"Mitch, are you planning on selling those pictures to People?" Jus asked, amused.

"How much do you think I'd get?" I asked interestedly.

"A couple of thousand grand." Nate informed, drinking his lemonade.

"Like seriously?" I exclaimed, a little too loud for everyones liking because our table was already the center of attention and my screeching just made us center stage. "Like seriously?" I asked again, my tone lower.

"Yes. And thats like for a couple of pictures."

"So you mean I have pictures worth a million dollars on my phone?" Sorry I was having a teenie moment here. I may not have money problems at home and I may get nearly everything I want but this was exciting. I had like a thousand pictures of myself with Connect three or just random pictures of them I took doing silly stuff. This could be my first income, guys!

Not like I was really planning on selling them to People, but the thought was exciting.

"Only if they think the pictures are gossip worth." Nate said, finishing his lunch and wiping the sides of his lips with a napkin.

"Well thanks for ruining my moment there Nate. I love you. Like they're gonna want pictures of you guys playing football or making a peanutbutter sandwitch. Can you guys do something interesting so I can take a picture and send it to them?" I asked, excitedly. "Maybe something scandalous." I finished with a mischevious smile.

"Did you eat sand or something?" Nate asked,

"I think its all the walking..." Caity agreed.

"No. Hey, guys!....Make out." I ordered. Nate and Caity looked at each other with confused glares and then back at me. "You heard me....make out or something so that I can send in a picture."

"You're crazy."

"Anyway Mitch..." Davide cut in.

Why was he acting so annoying these days?

"Yup?"

"So you know since you weren't free on saturday?..."

No. No. No. No dont ask me out again

No.

"Ummm....yeah." I replied in a low tone.

"I was wondering if you were today. I mean you did say another time so..."

Shut your big fat italian mouth up Now Davide!

"So?"

Why was he doing this? How embarrassing will it be for me to turn him down infront of all of our close friends and with the whole school pretending to eat lunch but actually video conferencing whats happening on our table.

"He means are you free tonight because he wants to take you to dinner." Justin chipped in making it easier for Davide and harder for me. Thanks bitch.

"Umm...yeah.." Davide cleared his throught and a chuckle escaped Nate and Caitys at exactly the same time. "I mean if your not busy 'cause you're not with anybody now and..."

"Yeah Mitch, you're not with anyone right? Cause like you'd never hide it from me cause I'm your best friend. She'd never hide it from me..." Caity announced, smiling at everyone. "She's free tonight."

Thanks Caity but he asked me if I'm free not you.

"So umm...are you?"

I am but I'll pass because I'd like to go on a date with my real boyfriend first, thanks.

The tension in the table kept building untill the silence we were letting out seemed deafening. All of the other people in the canteen may have been howling and crying about how the new Chemistry teacher made a fool of themselves or how Nate turned them down - yes, Nate turned a lot of girls down today. You know since now he isnt a teacher and is a student just like them, their guts seemed to have increased a lot, because a whole lot of girls were asking Nate out and throwing themselves at him. Hah....I feel sorry for you Nate. Not. Anyway, even though the rest of the world was busy with themselves everyone on our table had their eyes glued to the wonderful me. I know I'm you're favourite guys, but stop staring its rude! Okay, maybe not staring they were all glaring at me, waiting for my reply.

"Um yeah...Okay. Yeah I'm free." I breathed out.

What else was I supposed to say in front of all of our closest friends and the other people who were eavesdropping on our conversations? No thanks Davide, I dont wanna go. Not because I dont like you, because I do. You're my friend but you're becoming very annoying thses days couldnt you have asked me that in private? Yeah, in private would have been better Dave, thanks anyway. Bah-bye!

It wasnt gonna work like that.

Everyone seemed happy with my reply. Justin was jubliant, Caity was happy and Nate just kept staring at my face like he couldnt believe I said Yes. I couldnt either buddy so you're not alone.

I could tell Davide that I wasnt interested when he was alone, but then that would hurt him and I dont want that. Or I could just go to the freaking dinner and tell him I want to be just friends because if I told him that now and we both didnt go to dinner everyone would suspect something is up. I dont want everyone to know, not now after seeing how Caity was being treated by the other girls, I didnt want to be like that. One girl actually stood behind her with a pair of scissors and tried cutting her hair off while we were at P.E and another one came to threaten her to stay away from Nate. Both were sent to the principles office and are history now, but you get what I mean right?

The other thing was how was I gonna tell Shane that I'm going on a 'date' with Davide. It's like telling your boyfriend that you cheating on him. Oh yeah! I am cheating on Shane if I go.

Maybe I wont tell him at all.

Good idea.

NOTT! Who else thinks that isnt a good idea either? Hands up please? Hhaha so I did say there would be drama and let me tell you this is just like a tiny two second trailer of it the main picture will be out in the next chapter! So yeah stay tuned for that my lovelys!

Yayyyy! Nate finally started highschool! I think it was long overdue for the guy. Couldnt tourture him anymore LOL. What do you guys think about mitchie going on the 'date' with davide? Oooo how will shane take it? Will she tell him? Wont she tell him? Will Shane be mad? When will she tell everyone about her and Shane grogeous Gray? What's up with Nate and Caity? And who wants to punch Davide? haha

Mitchie is letting the jealous bug get to her right now. Who wants to see her throw a fit? I know I wanna!

Yes, I know lotssss of questions...oh yeah! Silver knows too.....dont worry you all dont have to answer them. I'm a nice person :P this coming from the same person who has been giving u guys evil faces for the past two chapters LOL but really I am nice.....haha
