--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Can I have 2 cokes please?" I smiled politely at the bartender. "Comin' right up sweetie," he winked back.
"Oh.. My.. Gosh. You are a full flirt!" Shane accused. I burst out laughing, "That's rich coming from you!" He pouted and batted his eyelashes, "Don't you like it Michie?"
I just ignored him and took the drinks to a table by the pool. The hotel was beautiful, and everyone was so friendly. I couldn't wait to get my new bikini's on and relax for a whole 2 weeks.
Shane and I sat in silence for a while. That's was one of the things I liked about Shane, he was comfortable in silence, he didn't feel the need to talk constantly. I began to scan the poolside taking in the sun kissed bodies and sun hats, smiling as a spotted a cute couple in the pool splashing about and flirting with each other. They had their back to me, but even from my distance I could tell they had a deep connection. Quite like Shane and myself, I thought, but we're not a couple, I quickly added sighing.
"Something wrong?" Shane averted his gaze from the same couple I was just watching. His deeps brown eyes seemed to look right into my soul and I felt butterflies in my tummy, making my grin. "Nope, everything is good." He grinned back, keeping his eyes locked with mines for a moment longer than necessary before glancing back at the couple in the pool. I followed suite.
I was watching the couple but my mind was somewhere else, imagining situations of Shane and I together, like a proper couple. Walking down the street he would entangle his fingers with mines and my cheeks would stain pink. He would hold me in his arms and never let go, afraid that if he let go of me, I would disappear. He would hold my face in his hands and gently but passionately kiss me, and I kiss him back, it would get deeper and more heated and…
"Wait a minute!" I was forced out of my haze of fantasies and turned to Shane with a questioning expression on my face. He looked towards me with clear confusion in his face. "That couple." he pointed to the boy and girl in the pool. "Do you know them?"
I glanced towards the couple whilst muttering, "I don't think so." I squinted my eyes to get a better look and it became clearer and clearer that I did recognise them. In fact, I don't know how I didn't the first time I saw them. "Oh my gosh!" I exclaimed. The boy had a mess of curly brown hair and deep brown eyes, similar to Shane's. The girl long curly brown hair that bounced on her shoulders when she walked. He eyes a clear blue and bright with excitement. I turned towards Shane again shocked at the scene before me. He looked back at me, his eyes mirrored my shock, then it turned to hurt, pain. Why didn't they tell us? How could they keep this a secret? Didn't they know how important this was?
"I'm outta here" Shane muttered, his face full of wonder and hurt. It was clear he wanted to be alone to think about this. I wasn't about to stop him, I need to think about what just happened too, about why I had to find out like this? Suddenly my hurt turned to anger. They should have told me! In fact, How could he have done this to Shane? His own Flesh and blood! And my so called Best Friend? How do you like them apples? Fumed I stood up and marched back towards my hotel room to search for my mobile. She was going to tell me. Of course she was.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How could he do this to me?! My own Brother! Not only was he my brother, he was my Best Friend. He should have told me. I couldn't help but wonder how long this had been going on. How long had they been together? Why had the done it behind my back? I was furious.
I slammed the hotel rooms door shut, making it obvious I wanted some privacy to a girl that had followed me to the room. I didn't feel like signing autographs at the moment. And damn right I should feel like this. I was shocked, confused, angry and most of all hurt. Why couldn't he tell me? He must have had a valid reason. It's so stupid! Why? That's the question that kept running through my mind.
I picked up my phone and dialled his number.
Ring… Ring… Ring…
He would tell me. I believe in him. This was all just a silly misunderstanding.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I rushed in the hotel room to find Shane sitting on the sofa on his phone. His brow was furrowed and his lips were in a think line. I tip-toed past him, trying not to disturb his conversation and nipped into our room and grabbed my phone, then disappeared out of our room to a place quite where I could think things through.

"Hey Michie!" the voice at the other end of the line called, "It's so good to hear from you. Are you enjoying your holiday?" she seemed excited.
"Oh hey . Yeah I am. Are you?" I quizzed.
"Well, I'd hardly call staying at my parents a holiday," she giggled
"Yeah, your parents," I muttered.
"Are you okay?" She asked.
"Of course!" I replied trying to sounds cheerful. There was silence between us for a couple of minutes before I plucked up the courage to confront her. "Caitlyn, is thee something you want to tell me?"
"Well…" she began, I got my hopes up, practically expecting her to tell me what I wanted to hear. "I got a new job just before I left for my parents. As of 3 weeks on Monday I will be n official music producer!" she squealed down the phone. I tried to act happy for her throughout the rest of our conversation but inside I felt betrayed. Why wouldn't she tell me? I got so worked up that just before the end of the phone call…
"So have you herd from Nate lately?"
She seemed to laugh t this comment, "Why would I have heard from Nate? Not texts no phone calls, no nothing since I left." She seemed to be giggling at their supposed inside joke. To be honest, I didn't find it funny at all.
"What's so funny?" I asked monotone.
"Oh nothing, just… How's it going on your holiday?" she changed the subject. A little too obviously for my liking. If I didn't actually know about her secret I would have let it drop. "You and Shane together yet?"
Well, if we were at least I'd tell you about it., I thought.
"Look Caitlyn I gotta go, I'll phone you later sorry." I hung up quickly before Billy Boy - a man who worked at the hotel - came to talk to me. She would surely have noticed the voice as I'd seen her talking to him earlier by the pool. Then it hit me. I had the best idea ever! Shane could help me. It would be our little secret. Who says truth is the best policy. Times have changed, and apparently so have I.
