Nate's Point of View
"Natey!" Alex squealed.
It was the day after Mitchie had left. Shane was in a bad mood, Jason was in a bad mood and so was I. But Alex was just peachy! She had just woken up and kissed me. ew. She tasted like sour grapes. Not like my Caity, well not my caity anymore. Caitlyn tasted like sweet Cotton candy. yum. Oh how I missed her. She left and the tour went down hill from there. The past 4 concerts had been our worsts yet. I mean, even worse then the one when I fainted and later found out it was because I had diabetes. And that was a bad concert...
I also felt extremely guilty that Shane and Mitchie had broken up. Shane hadn't told me why, but I was sure it had to be something along the lines of me and caity.
"Morning" I mumbled back unenthusiastically to Alex. She frowned a bit then went to have a shower. I walked into the kitchen to find Jason watching TV and Shane staring aimlessly at a picture of him and Mitchie. I sighed, I was making my friends lives living hell. "Shane, dude. Can I talk to you in our room?" I asked. This was it. The guilt was eating me alive and I needed to tell someone the truth.
"Uh, yeah. Okay." he said and followed me to the back room.
I closed the door once we were both in the room and looked him straight in the eye.
"I have some questions and some things to tell you" I stated simply.
"Ask away." he groaned as he flopped onto his bed.
"Why did you and Mitchie break up?"
"I could ask you the same question about Caitlyn."
"I asked you first. I'll answer your question after."
"Fine...I walked in on her cutting herself. I said I couldn't deal with a suicidal girlfriend."
"You Ass!" I interrupted.
"Your one to talk! And let me speak! She promised she would stop and the next day I caught her again. And that was the final straw. Told her I couldn't have a brother and a girlfriend who were depressed." Shane said emotionless.
"IM NOT DEPRESSED!" I exclaimed. "I have Alex to love..." I said quietly.
"Nate I'm not an idiot. I know you don't actually like Alex. You don't act the same way you did around Caitlyn, who you really loved, with her."
"Your right. I broke up with Caitlyn because of Alex though..." I sighed guiltily.
"I thought you told her you'd never do that!"
"Well, Alex sorta blackmailed me."
"How so?"
"She said she would tell Caitlyn we had sex and she was going to-" I started but was cut off by Shane's yell.
"YOU WHAT!?!" he yelled at me.
"What the crap dude..." I said defensively.
"HOW COULD YOU, HOW THE HELL COULD YOU!" he said, his face swelling and turning red as a tomato.
"It was a slip of judgment." I said sadly.
"I cant believe you Nate. You broke our promise. The one promise we all said we would never break."
"Im sorry shane, but-"
"How do I know you didn't and aren't going to break others?"
"I promise I-"
"Nate you just lost my respect."
"dude-"
"I can never trust you again."
"WILL YOU PLEASE LET ME SPEAK!" I yelled at the top of my lungs, way passed my boiling point.
"Go ahead, no ones stopping you" I rolled my eyes at him.
"Yeah...no one at all. Anyway, it was a mistake-"
"One you could have told us about"
"I was afraid you would react like this"
"You could have tried. Not waited...how long ago was this?"
"A year"
"A YEAR!"
"Yes, please stop treating me like I'm 3. I'm six god damn teen." huffed agriliy.
"Nate, if you had confided in us we would have understood."
"Yeah right. All you 2 ever did was use me for writing the songs, take credit for them, and leave me in the dust!" I yelled finally letting me deep down jealousy of Shane and Jason out.
"What?"
"Shane, I didn't mean it like that I-"
"No, you meant what you said. That's fine, take your little songs and go. Connect 3 is officially over."
"SHANE! You cant just do this! Not to the fans, not to our families, our friends, everyone whose worked hard to get us to where we are today."
"I guess you have a lot of explaining to do. If you had just told the truth in the first place Alex would have nothing on you, you would have Caitlyn, I would have Mitchie and we would still be a band."
"Its not that simple Shane. Theres more to it than that..." I muttered.
"Have fun explaining that to the press!" Shane exclaimed and slammed to door shut as he left the room.
Connect 3 was officially over. Smitchie was officially over. Naitlyn was officially over. And it was all my fault.
