MITCHIE'S POV
I was walking in the halls before school when I heard, "Hey Mitchie," it was Ella, "Caitlyn is coming over to my house to swim on Saturday. You in?" she asked.
"Ya! I'd love to," I replied, "I'll be over at 1 o'clock. Is that cool?"
"Yeah! That's great. See ya then. Gotta jet."
"Thanks!" I yelled to her as she ran down the hall. I was so excited for Saturday.
…
"Bye mom! I'll see you later."
"Bye honey!"
I walked up to the big, brass knocker and picked it up. I let it fall back onto the wooden door. It was cool against my skin on the warm summer's day.
"Hey Mitchie."
"Hey Ella," I said, "Oh shoot! I forgot my towel in my mom's car. You go on upstairs and I'll find my way."
"Okay!"
I got my pink and orange towel and headed up the long, white, winding staircase. On my way up I encountered the guy from the first day at school.
"Who are you?" I asked. It sounded more demanding than I intended it to be.
"I'm Shane Grey."
"Cool! I'm Mitchie Torres. So whatcha doin here?"
"I um… live here."
"Oh. Really?"
"Yeah. I'm Ella's twin brother."
"I didn't know that Ella had a brother."
"She actually has three. Nate our younger brother, me and Jason our older brother."
"Oh. She never told me the. Well see you around."
"Yup! See ya"
I walked the rest of the way upstairs. When I walked into Ella's room I saw Caitlyn and Ella on her bed reading a magazine.
"So… Should I get changed now?" I asked.
"Yeah. You get changed and then we can go outside," Said Ella.
I walked over to the girls and flipped their upside down magazine that they were 'reading' right side up.
"Nice try." I said, "I'm not stupid."
I got changed into my orange bikini and navy blue halter cover-up dress, my towel and Dolce and Gabbona sunglasses in my hand. Caitlyn, Ella, and I each sat down on one of the many lawn chairs they had outside.
"So…" Ella started, "You and my brother."
"What are you talking about?" I asked innocently.
"We all know that you like Shane. It's kinda obvious." Caitlyn replied from beside me.
"Fine!" I confessed. "I'll admit that I like Shane. I mean how couldn't you? He's cute, sweet, sm…"
I felt a huge blast of cold water hit my body.
"Ahhhh!" we screamed in surprise.
We all turned around to see Ella's brothers. Caitlyn and Ella looked furiously at the three guys standing before them with smirks on their faces. I started into hysterical laughter. My laughter came to a halt when five pairs of eyes turned towards me. I knew that the girls wanted to get back at the guys so to help I took their water guns. The three guys were surprised but started to run away. Each of us chose a guy to chase after. Ella chased her big brother Jason, Caitlyn chased Nate and I chased Shane.
"Shane you're going down. You better," I stopped, "wait. How much did you just hear?"
"Well…"
"Oh no!" I started to blush.
"It's okay Mitchie." he pulled my chin up so that I could look into his eyes. "I feel the same way."
Really?"
Yeah."
Right then I remembered why Shane looked so familiar. It's because he was in the band Connect 3.
"Hey. You're in the band Connect 3 aren't you? That's why you looked so familiar on my first day of school!"
"Yeah. I am." His face fell.
"What's wrong?"
"Now you're only going to like me because I'm famous. Aren't you?"
"Of course I'm not. You're just like a normal guy. You just happen to be an amazing singer."
"You know you're the only one that actually gets me."
With that I sprayed him with water and we continued to run around with the water guns all afternoon.
