Hey guys! So yeah, I'm back! I'm so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so sorry I didn't mean for the wait to be this long. It's been like-what?- 3 months? Anyways, the reason why it took forever is because I knew what I wanted to write, but I couldn't figure out how to write it out. And because I felt that Don't Forget's ending was rushed. And It kind of was. I mean, I wanted to finish it so I could start working on YBWM cause I didn't want that to be on hold or Don't Forget to be on hold either. But now, I'm so lost on what to write. I'm so so so so so so so so so sorry. Please forgive me :]
It's Not Too Late
"Shane…" I whispered. "Shane. I-I-"
"No Mitch." He cut me off. "Let me speak."
I nodded. His face was so serious. He hadn't changed much in the few months. Except he had shaved his hair. It was no longer shaggy like the way I liked it; it was now styled up, in a pointy kind of hairstyle, and it was cut. He now wore glasses too. But he was still Shane; my Shane. I didn't see anything wrong with his change though, since I had changed as well. My hair was curly and an orangish-blondish color with a little black still there. It looked great to me, though.
Ever since our breakup, I hadn't been in the spot light much. I just had a few concerts though, where I sang Don't Forget, Remember December, and La La Land. I had been working on a new song, called Catch Me. And another called It's Not Too Late. I wanted Shane to hear the latter.
"Mitchie, I love you. I still do. And I always will. I miss you. And Jason and Nate won't shut the hell up about you and the girls." He chuckled silently and I chuckled along with him.
"Shane. I- I love you too. But I don't think I'm ready to get back with you." I whispered. My eyes were already filling with tears. God, I'm such a baby.
"Mitchie. You don't get it. I won't leave you. I would never do what Britney sai-"
"I know," I cut him off. "My heart knows that. But my mind doesn't. I'm sorry Shane. But, I still want to be your friend. Just wait until I'm ready. Please. These months without you, they've hurt me so much. I just want you around, to help me be able to be with you again."
Shane had a look of deep concentration on his face. I didn't want to force him.
"Okay." he agreed. And then he smiled at me.
"Thank you!" I exclaimed, then threw my arms around him. And he hugged me back.
"I'm sorry." I pulled away. "Sorry. I'm not ready yet. Sorry. Sorry."
He chuckled. "It's fine."
"Listen, Shane. I wrote a song while we were… and I want you to hear it."
I took his hand and dragged him to the living room where I grabbed my guitar.
I sat down on the couch and faced him.
"Oh." I said, suddenly realizing that this song is not a song you sing you friend. "Wait. Sorry. I can't sing this song, yet."
"It's okay, Mitch." He said. "I have a song to sing you."
He took the guitar from my hands and began playing his own song.
If the heart is always searching,
Can you ever find a home?
I've been looking for that someone,
I'll never make it on my own.
Dreams can't take the place of loving you,
There's gotta be a million reasons why it's true
When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.
How long will I be waiting,
To be with you again
Gonna tell you that I love you,
In the best way that I can.
I can't take a day without you here,
You're the light that makes my darkness disappear.
When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.
More and more, I start to realize,
I can reach my tomorrow,
I can hold my head high,
And it's all because you're by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When I hold you in my arms
I know that it's forever
I just gotta let you know
I never wanna let you go
Cause when you look me in the eyes.
And tell me that you love me.
Everything's alright,
When you're right here by my side.
When you look me in the eyes,
I catch a glimpse of heaven.
I find my paradise,
When you look me in the eyes.
Oh
I smiled at him. "Wow, Shane. This is… amazing. It's beautiful. Though, it is a little too 'friendly'. But it's so beautiful, that I don't even care about that."
Shane smiled at me. "Thanks, Mitchie. It means a lot that you like it."
"So are you going to Camp Rock this summer?" I asked, out of the blue. I was really curious to know.
"Yeah, we plan on going. What about you?"
"Well I- Holy CRAP! Is that Jason? Oh my God! Hahahha!" I started laughing and pointing at my window.
"What? Wha- JASON! Get off that!"
Shane got up and ran to the window, which was open. Jason was dangling a piece of rope, signaling that he had been on the roof. I giggled at him. Nate was standing innocently behind him, with his arms crossed.
"Is everything good?" Nate asked me.
I smiled and nodded. "We're just friends, though. Just for now. Until I'm ready. But gee, I missed you guys!"\
So guys, I hope you liked this! It took me forever to find a song for Shane to sing though. But thanks for sticking be me guys! R&R
