I know 2 chapters in one night. Well I am posting this at 2 in the morning so maybe not 2 in one close enough. Just to let you know the conversation between Mitchie and Declan near the beginning I wrote because I was a little bit hyper don't judge me. I just want to be loed. Anyway back to the story.
When we got to the mess hall we were still laughing so hard that our sides were starting to hurt. We got our lunch and sat down with everyone trying to catch our breath.
"What's so funny?" Caitlyn asked looking over at us wondering.
"It's nothing never mind." Declan said getting his breath back. I had calmed down now and started eating my lunch thinking that the lesson could have gone a lot worse then that. For example he could have realised who I was and that would have blow the whole keeping it a secret out of the window.
"Ok then. By the way two were laughing I don't think I really want to know what was going on." Caitlyn smiled at Declan who smiled back at her. Something was going to happen between them this summer I could feel it. But if they weren't together by the end of the summer I was going to have some serious words with my darling twin brother.
"You really don't." Declan said shoving pasta into his mouth.
"Pig!" I shot at him.
"Runs in the family!" He joked.
"You get that from dad." I laughed, "There is no way that mum was like that."
"I dunno from what grandma says about her..." HE started,
"But grandma's off her rocker. She is nuts." I said, "Last Christmas do you remember she rang us up asking us to come round and help her because she thought she had killed the turkey."
"Oh yeah that was a weird Christmas, I don't think I will ever get the sight of our grandma trying to revive a cooked turkey on the kitchen table." Declan said shivering at the memory.
After that we finished or lunch and when to the rest of our lessons had dinner then Caitlyn decided to show me the lake. It was getting late so Caitlyn decided to head back but I stayed back for a little. As I was staring out on the lake I couldn't help thinking that this was going to be the best summer that I have had in a long time. Sure I loved being Demi and I loved everything that came with being her but sometimes I wish that I never became her so my life wouldn't have became so complicated. Sure a year ago my life was perfect I had a fantastic boyfriend the only problem being he only knew one side to me. But anyway gone now, no point thinking on the past. I sometimes wonder if he still thinks about me and I hope that he regrets' how he treated me and he understands why I broke up with him.
I looked at my watch it was half 11 and curfew was at 12 so I made my way back to my cabin. I was so drowned in my thoughts that I wasn't looking where I was going and before I knew it I had bumped into someone and was lying on the floor.
"Ouch." I said standing up then realising that I had knocked the other person on the floor to, "Oh my God I am so sorry are you ok?"
"Watch were you are going will you!" The person said angrily. This morning was a one off then was it when I realised who I had bumped into.
"Oh don't worry I'm fine." I said sarcastically watching him pull himself up.
"I don't care if you're fine what about me?" He said, now I was remembering why I really couldn't stand him.
"What about you?" I said crossing my arms.
"You just better hope that I am not bruised or anything." He snapped.
"Or what you gonna do, set your lawyers on me." I laughed with no emotion whatsoever.
"Who do you think you are talking to me like that?" He said walking closer to me.
"A person and people have feeling you know and they don't like being talked to like that do they?" I said trying to make a point.
"Well you talked to me like that!" He stated.
"And did you like it?" I asked wondering if I got through to him.
"No not really." He said softly.
"Exactly." I said,
"Um.. I better go." He said walking away. He didn't even say sorry, well I wasn't going t let him leave without saying it.
"Don't worry about me then I'm sure there is no damage done." I said watching him stop and look at me.
"Sorry about bumping into you like that." He said smiling at me slightly before walking away.
I stood there in complete shock I honestly thought that it was going to take much more than that to get him to say sorry to me but obviously he was changing at camp and maybe when we both got back on tour he wouldn't be the jerk that he was. I turned around and went to bed thinking of Shane something I hadn't done in a long time.
The next morning started out the same me and Lola had to jump on Caitlyn again to wake her up. We were on our way to first class which was hip-hop today and I had just finished telling Declan about last night with Shane and he was as gob-smacked as me. That was twice in 2 days that he had said sorry and had smiled.
"So Mitchie, what does your family do?" Tess asked as she came up to me. Caitlyn had warned me that because I was fantastic in vocals class yesterday that Tess would make her move on me sometime in the next day or so.
"Um well my dad is Steve Torres and well my mum is dead." I said,
"Oh I think my gran listens to Steve Torres." She said completely ignoring the part about my mum, "So you get our singing from your dad then?"
"I guess so I never really thought about that way before." I said really not wanting to talk to Tess. Luckily and I never thought I would ever use this sentence in my life, Shane walked into the room and turned on the stereo.
"Now you all did pretty well yesterday now I want you to pair up boy/girl. Mitchie?" He said walking over to me.
My heart jumped when he said my name. He had never said my real name before. "Yes?"
"How about you be my partner and show everyone what to do, because I know that you can dance really well." He said taking my hand and pulling me to the front of the room, I tried my best to ignore the tingling feeling that was going up my arm as he touched my hand.
"I don't really have a choice do I?" I said and he laughed and shook his head.
"Right then hold your partner like this and just follow me and Mitchie here." He said pulling me closer. I had to try and not look in his eyes so I focused on a spot behind him as we started to move to the music. Everyone copied and was pretty good. Declan and Caitlyn had decided to pair up and I looked at them with a big smile on my face.
"You know I really do think that I have met him somewhere before." Shane said jerking his head in Declan's direction.
"I think he would have told me if he had met you, seeing as he is my twin brother and all." I said still looking at the pair that were smiling at each other.
"He's you twin?" He asked looking at me then at Declan and back, "But he has blonde hair and you have brown."
"He dyes it. He says that he doesn't want to look like me." I laughed, "He is a nice brother wouldn't you say so."
"Yeah suppose." He said looking at me.
"What." I said getting nervous he was looking right me.
"Nothing," He said pulling away from me, I didn't realise that the class was finished.
Later that day I was in the practice room alone not wanting anyone to hear me. I started to play on of the songs that I kept as Mitchie.
I've always been the kind of girl
That hid my face
So afraid to tell the world
What I've got to say
But I have this dream
Right inside of me
I'm gonna let it show, it's time
To let you know
To let you know
This is real, this is me
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be, now
Gonna let the light, shine on me
Now I've found, who I am
There's no way to hold it in
No more hiding who I want to be
This is me
I sighed and walked out not realising that Shane was outside listening to me singing.
A few days later I had got into more conversations with Tess about my family and me singing. I really don't understand why she cared so much that she thought that she was better then me. I had never really heard her sing before but she was singing tonight at the campfire so I would see what she was like then. All the last classes were stopped because all the instructors needed to get everything sorted out for the campfire jam.
Later that night me, Declan, Caitlyn, Lola, Barron and Sander all made our way to the jam and got to the front. I wasn't really that bothered were we were but we were at the front anyway. In the middle of the stage was the campfire and it was already lit and letting off some good heat not that we needed the heat. Tess's backup singers Ella and Peggy made their way onto the stage and over to their mic that was in the back corner of the stage, then her backup dancers came on then finally she did wearing a gold glittery dress and gold matching heels. She looked awful in it to be honest.
I'm too cool for my dress
These shades don't leave my head
Everything you say is so irrelevant
You follow and I lead
You want to be like me
But your just a wannabe
love it or hate it
I can't help the way I am
Hope you don't misunderstand
Cause I'm too cool
Yeah I'm too cool
To know you
Don't take it personal
Don't get emotional
You know it's the truth
I'm too cool for you
You think your hot but I'm sorry, you're not
Exactly who you think you are
Can't tell you what you haven't got
When we walk into the room
I'm too cool for you
Lucky I'm so nice
Even I'm surprised
You are still allowed to be in my crew
Show you how it's done
If you want to be someone
Just watch me and you'll learn some
Me, myself, and I agree
You'll never catch up with me
Cause I'm too cool
Yeah I'm too cool
To know you
Don't take it personal
Don't get emotional
You know it's the truth
I'm too cool for you
You think your hot but I'm sorry, you're not
Exactly who you think you are
Can't tell you what you haven't got
When we walk into the room
I'm too cool for you
You see I'm all beauty, brains, and talents
I got it all
Well others have to try all their lives
Still they never get the call
That's the difference between you and me
Obviously
I'm a natural
I'm the real deal
I can't help the way I am
Hope you don't misunderstand
But I'm too cool
Yeah I'm too cool
To know you
Don't take it personal
Don't get emotional
You know it's the truth
I'm too cool for you
Too cool
Yeah I'm too cool
To know you
Don't take it personal
Don't get emotional
You know it's the truth
I'm too cool for you
Of course the song had to be all about her she was so self-centred. I clapped along with everyone else to be polite but I didn't like the song. I looked around and saw Shane standing over by teh trees with a nice smile on his face. Maybe he was changing after all.
