I have finally had the time to write this chapter. Thanks for the long wait and the reviews.

Chapter 19 Part 2:

After a forty five minute bus ride, with Mitchie bouncing up and down in her seat every few seconds, the beautiful view of Alfea caught Mitchie's eye. She squealed like a 4 year old child. "We're here!" She cried out, gripping at her friend's arms in excitement.

Each of her 4 other friends had to stiff their giggles as they watched their friend acting all weird and childish like. To them, it seems though Mitchie had not been to Alfea at all as her first reaction to the school was exactly the same way as it now.

The bus rumbled to a halt at the bus stop a stone's throw away from the school. Mitchie eagerly and literally ran down the steps, (and almost tripped if not her friends were right behind her.)

Mitchie sighed contently as the familiar waves of peace and happiness rushed through her. Alfea was exactly the way she left it. Only now there was neither sadness nor loneliness within Mitchie Torres.

"Come on Mitch! Everyone's waiting!" Tori called out, beckoning her friend to come over. Mitchie rushed into the gates of Alfea and quickly scanned her card, her friends' right behind her.

She then swiftly pushed the doors to Alfea opened. As the door slowly opened, only one thought was racing through Mitchie's mind. I am finally home.

People stopped what they were doing when the huge Alfea doors opened. The news that Mitchie was at last returning had traveled around the school quickly. Everyone cranked their necks to catch a look at the well liked Mitchie Torres.

Hilary was one of the first people to see her and rushed over, pulling her into a great big bear hug. Mitchie squealed and hugged the head girl back. "Nice to see ya Mitch!" Hilary commented. The 18 year old laughed. "Ditto."

After much hugs and welcomes, the four girls headed towards the common room. On their way there however, they met up with Lindsay. The queen of the school smirked. "Well well, welcome back Itchy, Bitchy." She snarled, blocking their path at the top of the staircase.

"Don't call her that." Malory immediately defended Mitchie. Lindsay laughed and tusked. "Michelle, you need your friends to stand up for you. Poor weak little thing." She said, knowing how much Mitchie hated being called by her full name.

And sure enough, Mitchie winced, but not a lot. "Get out of the way Lindsay." She hissed, suddenly getting really bold. She in fact, was furious on the inside. She had just been discharged and had been very elated, but she had to deal with Lindsay drama already?

Lindsay snorted. "And what if I don't Torres?" She challenged her voice high. Mitchie could have slapped her, if not for her friends holding her back. Mitchie felt her temper rise and her patience wearing very quickly.

"Get out of my sight now Cyrus or you'll regret it." Mitchie answered, in a dark, firm and threatening tone. Caitlyn and Ella were stunned upon hearing their best friend speak like that. They had never seen this sight of Mitchie very often.

Lindsay seemed to be a little afraid and shocked as well, fro she hurriedly back away, but not before muttering, "This is not over Michelle."

There was silence for a couple of seconds before loud cheers erupted in the hallways. Mitchie Torres had just stood up to Lindsay Cyrus, the queen bee! Mitchie, upon realizing what she did, just lowered her head in embarrassment and blushed crimson red.

Tori and Malory patted her on the back, grinning from ear to ear. They all quickly made their way to the common room.... where something was waiting...

"SURPRISE! WELCOME BACK MITCH!" 15 voices chimed in unison as Mitchie and her friends entered the common room. A moment later, clapping and cheering was heard. The brown haired girl could only gasps in total shock.

The common room was so beautifully decorated with streamers and balloons. Her friends from 6B were all standing there, goofy smiles on their faces. "It... It's amazing! Thanks guys!" Mitchie spoke up, finally finding her voice. Then, group hugs were exchanged and welcomes too.

Caitlyn, Ella, Tori and Malory also filled their friends in on what had just happened despite a very red faced Mitchie's protests. This earned another round of claps. Liana turned to Jenna and Alexia. "I think those snacks cook promised us are ready; do you think you guys can collect them?" She inquired. Her 2 friends nodded and dashed off.

20 minutes later, the two girls returned, panting and with a few baskets of snacks. While they were gone, the music player was taken out and every one was having fun, dancing to the beat.

When Sally saw her friends and the sight they were in, she quickly turned off the music player since she was close to it and hurried over to them. "What hit you guys? A tornado?" Darrell inquired. The girls shook their heads, still panting heavily.

After a few minutes, their breathing stabled and they looked at each other. Then, Jenna and Alexia looked at the group seriously.

"I think you should hear this..." Alexia said quietly, looking at each of her friends in turn, but her gaze landed on Mitchie for a while longer.

Flashback:


Jenna and Alexia did as they were told, and exited the common room. They swiftly sprinted down the Alfea steps and dashed into the kitchen where the cook was there, placing some items into baskets. The aroma of the food was great! The girls could smell muffins, cookies and cakes!

"Mmmm.... That smells heavenly cook." Jenna commented, sniffing the air and sighing contently. It was then when the cook spotted them and a soft, motherly like smile spreaded onto her face.

"Good afternoon gals! Here are your snacks, all done and ready." Cook indicated to the few baskets on the table. "Thanks cook!" The two girls chorused in unison, before skipping off with the baskets.

Both girls made their way up the stairs. They were walking past one of the 6A girls' room when suddenly; they heard a voice saying something inside.

"Yes... I have a plan to get Bitchy Mitchie heartbroken and away from Shane." The voice announced loudly. The two girls stopped in their tracks and glanced nervously at each other. Slowly, they tip-toed towards the door and strained their ears to listen.

"Yes sis... yes, that's it! You have got it! So when should we put our plan into action?" The voice paused for a moment. Neither Jenna nor Alexia could hear a response from the room hence they assumed that the person was talking on the phone.

It was pretty obvious on who was on talking. It was dear Lindsay Cyrus, clearly talking to her famous sister, Miley Cyrus. (A/n: No offence to Miley Cyrus or anything.)

The girls shared a hard look. What were they going to do to Mitchie with regards to Shane?

"Okay sis, Sunday it is. Hehe... I can't wait to see the look on Bitchie's face! Thanks a lot sis, you're a lifesaver!" The voice squealed and it seemed to come closer and closer towards the doorway.

"Make a dash for it!" Alexia commanded, getting up quickly. Like a bolt of lightning, the girls were off! Barely 5 seconds later, Lindsay opened the door and sashayed out of the room, a large smirk planted on her face.

End of flashback.

"And that's what happened..." Jenna concluded, sighing sadly. The group all turned to looked at their poor friend. Mitchie was paling quickly and her head spun. Caitlyn and Ella immediately escorted her to a chair.

"What is she going to do to Shane...?" Mitchie muttered out, a feeling of dread and worry flooding her mind. Gaby went over to her friend and patted her shoulder. "Don't worry Mitch. We won't let her hurt you." She said firmly.

"Agreed!" The 18 other girls chimed in. Mitchie smiled weekly and muttered her thanks.

"We just have to be more careful these next few days." Caitlyn stated. The group nodded their heads, dreading on Sunday and what Lindsay could be up to.

Okay, so that's the end for this. I wrote this awhile back. But my computer is a bit wonky, so I cannot post this at that time. Anyways, please read and review!
