My Past and My Future Collide

Chapter 7: Finally Happy, for now

Mitchie woke up around 6:30 yawning after a long sleep. She didn't dream even though her mind was racing with many different feelings. She smiled as she sat up and rubbed her eyes. She had decided on something. Right now it was the best thing for her. It might change later on but right now this was going to be what she would do. She got up and walked into the bathroom to shower before her friends got up.

She had her shower then got out of the shower looking at her face. Today was the first day it looked like her face. There were no dark circles around her eyes. She also had a natural smile placed on her lips. She brushed her hair and then tied it up in a pony tail. She got dressed into a pair of green and white shorts going half way to her knees. She put on a white tank-top and wrapped a green scarf around her hips as a belt. She sat on her bed and just rested her head against her headboard.

Around 7:30 Lola and Peggy had left well Mitchie waited for Caitlyn. She also had to tell her something. She knew Caitlyn would not be as sure about what she was doing but knew that she would be happy that Mitchie would be. Caitlyn hated the last few days when Mitchie wasn't herself.

"Hey Mitchie, thanks for waiting" Caitlyn said as she came out of the bathroom dressed in Jeans and a t-shirt.

"You're welcome. I actually wanted to talk to you" Mitchie said and Caitlyn sat down

"Sure what's up?" She asked

"Okay, well you know how I have been bummed and such" She asked

"Yeah, definitely" Caitlyn agreed

"Okay and the thing with Trevor you guys told me and stuff" she asked again

"Yes I remember it all Mitchie get on with it" Caitlyn said

'Well, I like Shane I know that. I'm starting to like Trevor okay. With him in my life, and here well I'm getting happier so I'm putting Shane in the past. It may not last but I'm focusing on now, which is Trevor who may be my future. Right now I need you to support me growing my friendship and forgetting about Shane okay" Mitchie said and Caitlyn hugged her

"Of course I will. I'm glad you're smiling" She says happy and Mitchie laughs

"Well let's eat I'm starving" Mitchie said and they left for the mess hall.

They get to the mess hall. They walk in laughing and Trevor smiles as he sees Mitchie smile and walks in sitting beside him.

"Hey Trevor" Mitchie said sitting down grabbing her piece of toast and buttering it

"Hey Mitch" He said smiling and sipping his juice he had got

"I'm going to get breakfast" She said standing up

"I'll come" Trevor said walking over to the breakfast line with Mitchie

Meanwhile at the table Caitlyn explains the situation to Peggy, Lola, Sander and Baron.

"Okay so Mitchie talked to me this morning. She is going to focus on building a friendship with Trevor and we need to support her. She is happy being herself without Shane. So let's not mention him and let the chips lay where they land okay?" she asked

"Sure" They all agreed and continued to eat as they had got their breakfast already

"So Mitchie what you having" Trevor asked

"I don't know. Omelet" She said scoping some of her mom's cheese omelet onto her plate

"Sounds good, and you would know" He says winking getting some as well, well Mitchie lets out a soft giggle

"Definitely" Mitchie agreed moving forward getting more food.

They went back to the table. Mitchie had cheese omelet, bacon, hash browns, and an orange and apple juice. Trevor has the same but sausages instead of bacon.

"Hey guys" Mitchie said sitting back down deciding to eat

They were about to get dismissed to their first classes when Dee walked in and got the attention of all campers.

"Campers, Important announcement" she called and everyone faced her "Whoever has Brown's class first it is cancelled. He had to deal with a family issue. If you have him the class right before lunch or right after it will be ran as scheduled thanks" She said then left whispers filling the room.

"Guess it's really important for him to cancel class" Mitchie said and everyone agrees

"More time off" Trevor said "Want to go hang out Mitchie" he asks

"Sure, later guys" Mitchie says and walks off and out of the mess hall with Trevor

"You think its Shane?" Peggy asked quietly

"Possibly" Caitlyn said

"That's so sad, if only Mitchie knew, but she's happy we can't tell her" Lola said and the guys looked at them confused

"He quit the contract and singing all together" Caitlyn said and their jaws dropped

"Shut your mouth and don't say anything" Peggy said and they nodded

Mitchie and Trevor walked to Mitchie's cabin and they sat on her bed. She leant against the headboard well he was at the end of her bed.

"So Mitch, are you singing at campfire tomorrow?" Trevor asked

"I think so. Not sure yet, are you?" he asks

"Yes I am" He smile "It's the full one I sand in class" he confirms and she smiles

"I don't know I have a few to choose from" She said lifting her song book up then putting it back down

"I love writing about all kind of feelings. I personally have a song book too" He laughs "I know It's cheesy"

"I'm cheesy to then" she laughs and hits him playfully and catches his glance as he catches hers.

They stare into each others eyes until she shifts her eyes. "So you like camp?" she asked

"Absolutely! It's amazing, it's gorgeous, peaceful, lots of friendly helpful people and a great and wonderful way to meet knew people and possibly life long friends." He concluded

"Yeah it definitely is" She smiles "Caitlyn was instantly my friend it was very easy to get along with her" She says "You found one yet" She asks

"I think so" he said smiling and sat horizontal letting his hand rest on top of hers and this time she let it happen and didn't remove it

She was letting this relationship grow. She knew he wanted more then friendship. She was starting to think of it that way too. Maybe that would happen. If it did she was sure it would be before Final Jam this time. She smiled and rubbed his palm and then they linked fingers. She shifted over and sat beside her leaning against the headboard as well beside her.

"I think a found another one" She said giggling smiling back

He smiles "Guess we both have then" He says quietly almost a whisper and she nods "Look Mitchie I really like you and I'm sorry if this is fast" he says needing to say it

"No Trevor its fine, I'll stop you. I'm starting at liking you to" She confirms and they sit there

There was now 10 minutes left until second class and they walked out of the cabin. They walked to the dance cabin together as it was Mitchie's next class.

"I'll see you later?" He asks

"In Piano" She smiled and they shared a quick hug not hearing the snap of a camera and she walked inside the dance class

"I cannot believe you, you little tramp" Tess snarled stopping Mitchie in her tracks

"What are you talking about Tess" Mitchie said bored

"Being with that dude and Shane at the same time" Tess said

"Never would I do that. News flash Shane isn't here and we aren't together. So get over yourself Tess. I'm over Shane" She says that was a lie but he kept fading "You have nothing on me"

Mitchie walked away not hearing what Tess had to say. She was happy and Tess could not spoil that for her. Maybe not for her but she could for someone else. Tess took out her phone and looked at the picture she had recently snapped. Maybe she was over him but she knew he wasn't. Tess sent the second picture. She knew it could ruin Mitchie's chances. What she didn't know was that it wasn't. It was hurting Shane making him wanting her more. He was too weak to fight and when he saw this one it might just torture him to his breaking point. The pond would be flooded and he would break.

That dance class Mitchie did better. She was better under pressure like Shane's class but this was getting better. She remembered the steps and did the best she could. Not as good as Caitlyn as she was trained but yeah. After class they finished and walked out of the cabin.

"So Mitchie" Caitlyn said "What did you and Trevor do" She asked and Mitchie's cheeks turned a little pink "Okay blushing tell me" Caitlyn said excited

"Nothing much" Mitchie states

"Come on!" Caitlyn exasperates

"Fine" Mitchie said and began to tell the story. "We went back to the cabin and just chilled out on my bed. We talked about camp how peaceful and gorgeous it was. We said how you can make life long friends I told him how you are mine and asked him if he found one and he said possibly and placed his hand on mine" she stated and Caitlyn gasped "Anyway I liked it, it felt right so I let him and then we intertwined are fingers and he sat beside me. We sat in silence and agreed we might have found another one. He told me he liked me I said I was starting that too and well yeah. We walked to my class hugged then he went to his" She finished

"No way, really" Caitlyn asked surprised

"Yeah, something wrong with that?" Mitchie asked

"No, I'm happy for you" Caitlyn said and smiled

"I know you might not agree with it, but its making me happy and I'm hoping to keep that way for the next few weeks" She smiles as they keep walking

"Yeah I know. I also agree to some point about everything that happened" She states

"Okay, well I have to go I'll see you at lunch" She asked Caitlyn

"Sure bye" Caitlyn stated and they parted ways to their different classes.

Mitchie got to piano and sat beside Trevor. "Hey, how was your dance?" She asked

"Fine, I prefer writing, playing and singing though" He confirms

"Same. Dancing is fun but not my forte." She giggles "Are we doing a playing assignment today" She asked seeing if he knew

"We are using keyboards and computers today to put together our voice and playing I believe" He says

"Awesome I do that at home so yeah" Laughs and smiles

He smiles "I have the odd time. I believe she is giving us example of last summer performances. A Shane Gray one I think" he says she cringes a little

"Oh okay cool" She said praying it wasn't the duet with her. Caitlyn mixed it with her and she didn't mind them using it for examples but she didn't think she would be here without Shane crushing on Trevor oh god! She drops her head nervous as the teacher walks in.

"Hey class, so today we are using computers and Keyboards" She smiles "We had an amazing duet last final jam and mixed by one of our returning students in the producing program and we had permission from all three to use this" She said smiling and Trevor smiled at Mitchie

She wouldn't have said yes if she knew this would happen. What would Trevor think? Her mind kept cursing over and over again. Please let Trevor understand

"It's this is me mixed by our own Caitlyn Geller, performed by Shane Gray and Mitchie Torres" She said as it started playing and Mitchie dropped her head and Trevor dropped his jaw looking at her listening to it.

After it was finally done and everyone had clapped knowing Mitchie was in the class she turned a light shade of pink and smiled a little. They started working on their computer and keyboard and she was sort of afraid to look at Trevor.

"That was amazing Mitch" He said and she turned slightly to see him

"I guess" She said remembering Shane wasn't their

"It was like a dream performance. You have a lot of potential" he smiles

"Thank I think you do, it was just a little embarrassing" She said blushing

"You shouldn't be, trust my if I was Shane I would be bragging to sing with a girl like you" He said and now she was really blushing

"Maybe we should make that happen" She says giggling and starts working again. Shane pushed to the back of her mind, all Trevor thoughts surfacing. Why were crushes and feelings so rollercoaster like?

"Maybe we should" He winks and they continue working on their piano and computer projects until class was over. They kept stealing glances at each other and laughing.

It was now lunch time and Caitlyn was alone walking towards the cabin when she saw Brown and Dee talking and kept walking until she heard the name.

"Is everything al right" Dee said asking Brown

"He'll be okay, we really should tell the camper" He said

"Do you think that's a good Idea?" Dee asked

"Yeah Shane is really important to the camp. Everyone should know" He said and Caitlyn dropped her jaw he couldn't tell Mitchie that would NO!

"Well when are you going to?" Dee asked

"Right now at Lunch" Brown confirmed

Caitlyn took off running to the mess hall she didn't know what to do maybe get Mitchie out of there. That wouldn't work everyone else would no. This is very bad. She went and sat down at the table

"Hey" She said anxiously rocking her knee

"Is something wrong Caitlyn" Mitchie asked

"Uh, no sugar rush" She said freaking out and chewing on her lip and Brown walked in and whistled getting all the campers attention after they had all got lunch.

"Okay, well we have a little bit of bad news." He started "A very good friend of camp rock was recently…" He got stopped by spaghetti hitting him and looked to say Caitlyn standing her arm reached out. She didn't know what else to do she had to stop him. She sighed knowing what she did was wrong. "Miss. Gellar" He shouted "Outside" he shouted and held the door as she left and he and Dee followed.

Everyone at their table where stunned. Caitlyn would never to that to brown on purpose. Last year with Tess well that's a long story what was up with her. It wasn't a sugar rush and everyone knew it.

Outside Caitlyn was standing their feeling really bad well Brown and Dee were looking at her angry

"Miss Gellar, what was that for" He asked sternly

"You couldn't tell them about Shane I had to stop you" She said and Brown was stunned

"How did you know" He asked

"I'm pretty good friend with Nate." She stated "I know it's selfish of me to do this but Mitchie is happy. She's herself again, without Shane here. You know there was something there she wasn't her self. I know he quit and it's a huge deal but she can't handle it and know it his partially her fault. I know I went about it the wrong way, and you will still probably tell all them I just want her to be happy" She finished and Brown sighs

"I know he quit and it will hurt her. I wasn't going to tell them that. He was rushed to the hospital about an hour or two ago" At this Caitlyn's mouth dropped

"What, please tell me he's okay" She begged

"Yes, but I guess I won't tell them" He said

"I know you should, but not only will it shock the campers I'm just Mitchie is my friend and I don't know if she would recover" She said seriously

"I should. I'm not going too. I know she wasn't happy. He didn't tell her I know that. I didn't think about it but some of this was do to him not coming back and everything I don't know the whole story though. Well yet anyway. I won't but never throw food again" He warned

"I won't and thanks, I just want her to be happy" She said

"I understand, I would want the same thing thanks for making me realize this and we can't let this affect any camper at all. All campers would be affected, Mitchie more but your right we need to focus on camp. Go eat" He said and walked away as Caitlyn sighed.

She was worried though. He was in the hospital it's even worse now. Can anything else get worse? She asked her self as she walked in the mess hall to see Mitchie's shoulder covers my Trevor's arm. She belonged with Shane but to be happy Caitlyn would have to let this happen. She sighed and sat down.

A/N: it wasn't that good I know. Its okay, next chapter will be different and hopefully better :). It's Tess sending the pictures. What will happen when Shane see's the next one? What exactly happened to him? Anyway last chapter didn't get many reviews as I thought I would but it's okay. Not everyone has time. I however would enjoy hearing your thoughts on this chapter. It took a long time, not the best but its okay please read and review. Keep reading! Sorry for spelling errors.
