Chapter 6:

Connie had taken the news about her ex-husband pretty well, considering that he had caused both her and her daughter a lot of pain and grief. Of course she had given Mitchie the whole 'be-careful' speech, because she didn't want to see her daughter hurt again, she didn't deserve to be treated the way her father had treated her. Connie doubted that Steve had changed, but for Mitchie she was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, even if she would never be able to forget what he had put them through.

The rest of their day together had been great- they had cooked lunch together and talked about all kinds of things, from Mitchie and Shane's careers to Connie's new recipes. Mitchie was really happy to have her mom around again, even if it was only for a few hours. She missed having her around all the time, but she was also happy to share her apartment with her boyfriend.

In the evening it was time for Connie to go home, as she had to get up early the next day to cater for a wedding.

Connie hugged Shane goodbye "Bye Connie, it was nice to see you again, Mitchie really missed you," he said while hugging her back.

Next, Mitchie hugged her mom tightly "Bye Mom, have a safe drive. Te quiero Mamà," she said.

"I will. Te quiero también, mija," Connie replied and gave her daughter a kiss on the forehead.

On Monday, Mitchie had an interview and a live performance scheduled and decided to let her stylist try something new with her hair.

While her stylist and friend from Camp Rock, Ella Pador, was dyeing her hair and doing her make-up, Steve sat down with Shane in a room next door.

"So, are you two living together?" he asked Shane.

"Yes we are, since last year," Shane replied with a smile.

"I'm guessing you two are having sex?" Steve asked with a stern glance.

Shane's smile vanished "Excuse me?" he said.

"I take that as a yes, but let me tell you this- if you dare get her pregnant before marriage, I will have your head," he threatened, making Shane swallow nervously.

"I never said that we were having sex, but I also think that it is none of your business if we are. I respect your wish and I don't think that you need to worry about that, but should it happen, I'm sure it wouldn't be something we couldn't handle," he tried to assure Mitchie's dad, but at the same time made sure to emphasize, that he and Mitchie had the right to make their own decisions.

Meanwhile Mitchie had, with the help of Ella, decided to go for an ombré look on her dark brown hair, so that the tips of her hair were a light shade of brown. She had also decided to let Ella dye a few strands from her lower layers in a slightly dark teal color.

"Mitch, you look gorgeous!" she squealed and clapped her hands as she admired her handiwork.

"Thanks Ella, I really love it. It's something really different, but not too over-the-top," she said with a big smile and hugged her friend.

When she had finished changing in her outfit, she decided to join her dad and Shane in the other room to wait until she was called on stage.

"So, do you like my new hair?" Mitchie asked while twirling in front of them.

"You look amazing Mitch, I really like your highlights," Shane said, making Mitchie smile widely.

"Thanks, Popstar," she said and turned to her dad, who had yet to comment on her new hairstyle.

He nodded "It looks nice, although I don't understand why you needed to add the blue to it," he said.

Mitchie smiled "Well as long as you don't think it looks horrible."

A stage-hand entered the room and told Mitchie that she was supposed to be on stage in a few minutes and had to wait behind the stage before being called on set.

"She stormed the charts last year with her debut album "This Is Me" and is here for an interview and a live performance of a brand new song, please welcome Mitchie Torres!" the host introduced.

Mitchie, hearing her cue, walked around the corner to greet the host of the show. After shaking hands they sat down.

"Mitchie, it's so nice to have you here," she said with a friendly smile.

"Thank you for having me," Mitchie replied.

"Alright, before we talk about your music, I have to ask you about your relationship with Shane, as you two have shocked a lot of people when you announced that you've been dating for the past two years, correct?" she asked.

Mitchie blushed slightly "Yes, that's true. We just wanted to keep it private because we're both very private persons and it's just something that only concerns the two of us and those who are closest to us- we weren't going to deny it, but we also didn't want to make it public."

The interviewer nodded "So, what made you decide, or rather Shane decide, to tell the public?"

"Well, we both agreed that our fans deserved to know and we were also sort of fed up with having to sneak around, I just didn't know what he had planned when he called me on stage and was totally unprepared," she said with a chuckle.

"Was it great relief to finally tell the world?" she asked.

"Kind of, I mean it's only been a few days, so I haven't really experienced everything there is, but I'm really grateful for my, our fans- they've been really supportive so far and to see that they accept us just makes me really happy," she replied with a smile, hearing the crowd cheer.

"That's great to hear, now you're performing a new song after the break, can you tell us a little bit about it?"

"Sure, it's called 'Give Your Heart a Break' and basically about telling someone, that it's okay to fall in love and that you don't want to break their heart."

"Are you working on a new album or is it just something that you really wanted to publish?"

"Uhm, right now I'm not specifically working on an album, but I've got a lot of songs that I think would do great on my next record. I'm actually focusing on planning my first tour, I'm really excited for it," she said with her trademark-smile.

"Wow, that's great to hear, I bet your fans can't wait," the host said, making the crowd cheer. "Our break is coming up, but stay tuned to see Mitchie perform her brand new song 'Give Your Heart a Break'."

"The day I first met you, you told me you never fall in love..." she finished and smiled at the crowd, that was giving her a standing ovation. "Thank you so much!" she said before leaving the stage.

When she arrived back at her dressing room, Shane enveloped her in a big hug, telling her that she did great. Steve also commented that it wasn't bad. Mitchie felt happy in that moment, everything seemed to be getting better and better- her mom hadn't reacted too bad, Shane was still the most amazing boyfriend and her dad was finally back in her life.
