Broken Girl Chapter 8, a camp rock fanfic

Hello my dear fans and readers! I know you might complain I don't update regularly but that's because my mother had a major operation two days ago so I've been visiting her and I don't feel comfortable without knowing my mum is ok even though we text and call each other when I'm at school. So enjoy this chapter because until my mum comes back, I won't be updating as much. So thanks for understanding how I feel. So here's something for you and to thank you for your reviews!

Today is New Year's Eve and I'll be preforming in Madison Square Garden with Mitchie and Connect 3 in 10 minutes. We'll be singing a group song then we'll do solo acts. I still haven't made up with Nate but I think we need the break, seeing that he's leaving for tour in three days.

I saw Mitchie pacing and the guys over at the buffet table. "Mitchie Moo, calm down! I'm the one who should be pacing, it's my first year!" I exclaimed. Oh yeah, it was hers too.

"Then pace with me!" She said. She grabbed my hand and starting walking up and down with me. I saw the boys' faces wearing humour. "And you three can stop laughing at us!" She said, stopping to face them then again pacing.

"Mitchie!" I said, whining. "I don't want to pace!" I said. She let go and continued pacing herself. "Hey where's Sander, I need him for this song in two minutes!" I said, while the stage crew gave me my microphone.

"I don't know. Hey, wait, there he is!" Jason said. We all turned to see Sander run up.

"Where have you been?!" I screamed. He hugged me and apologised.

"Sorry, my mother was giving me kisses and hugs and good lucks. Moms, eh?" He said. I nodded and smiled. My Mom did that 10 minutes ago.

"CAITLYN WYNWOOD AND S-TUNE IN 10 SECONDS" Called stage crew.

"Come on." I said, pulling him up on stage. We heard the boys and Mitchie scream 'good luck's. The song started and I breathed in and sang to the screaming crowd.

I love the way you make me feel
I love it, I love it
I love the way you make me feel
I love it, I love it

[S-Tune]
Say, I'm thinking 'bout her every second, every hour
Do my singing in the shower
Picking petals off of flowers like
Do she love me, do she love me not? (love me not)
I ain't a player, I just crush a lot (crush a lot)

[Caitlyn Wynwood]
You give me that kind of something
Want it all the time, need it everyday
On a scale of 1 to 10 I'm at 100
Never get enough, I can't stay away
If you want it, I got it, I got it everyday
You can get whatever you need, from me
Stay by your side, I'll never leave you
I ain't going nowhere cause you're a keeper

[Chorus]
So don't you worry, baby you got me
I got a bad boy, I must admit it
You got my heart, don't know how you did it
And I don't care who sees it babe
I don't wanna hide the way I feel when you're next to me
I love the way you make me feel
I love the way (I love it, I love it)
Baby I love the way you make me feel
Oh, I love the way, the way I love you

Oh, so crazy you get my heart jumping
When you put your lips on mine
And honey, it ain't a question (quick question)
Cause boy I know just what you like
So if you need it, I got it, I got it everyday
Be your lover, and friend, you'll find it all in me
Stay by your side, I'll never leave you
And I ain't going nowhere cause you're a keeper

[S-Tune]
Uh, I make you feel so fine, make you feel so fine
I hope you hit me on my celly when I sneak in your mind
You a princess to the public, but a freak when it's time
Said your bed be feeling lonely,
So you're sleeping in mine
Come and watch a movie with me,
American Beauty or Bruce Almighty, that's groovy,
Just come and move closer to me
I got some feelings for you,
I'm not gonna get bored of
But baby you an adventure so please let me come and explore you

I love the way (I love the way)
Baby I love the way (I love the way)
Oh, I love the way (I love it)
I love the way (you make me feel)
I love the way (I love it)
Baby I love the way (you make me feel)
Oh, I love the way, the way I love you

The way I love you, you, you, yeah, the way
I love the way you make me feel
I love it, I love it
I love the way you make me feel
I love it, the way I love you!

"Thank you, New York City!" Sander exclaimed and ran off stage. I waited for a while and the lights all went off. This meant that Mitchie and Connect 3 were coming on. We sang a song all together and when we finished the crowd went wild. My friends left the stage and I was alone with my piano to sing 'You Gotta Be'. The audience went quiet for me to start and I started playing the notes on the ivory keys.

Listen as your day unfolds, challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears, stand up and be counted
Don't be ashamed to cry

You gotta be
You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day

Herald what your mother said
Reading the books your father read
Try to solve the puzzles in your own sweet time
Some may have more cash than you
Others take a different view, my oh my, heh, hey

You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger
You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm, you gotta stay together
All I know, all I know, love will save the day

Don't ask no questions, it goes on without you
Leaving you behind if you can't stand the pace
The world keeps on spinning
You can't stop it, if you try to
This time it's danger staring you in the face

Remember, listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears, my oh my heh, hey, hey

The audience were quiet for a while until they erupted in cheers. I laughed into the mic and smiled and waved at everyone.

"Thank you, New York City! You've been a ultimate pleasure to sing to. Enjoy the New Year countdown in one minute. Can every act come up on stage?" I said, into my mic standing up. Connect 3, S-Tune, Mitchie and a couple of other acts came up on stage.

We all stood in a line; I was holding Nate's and Mitchie's hands and Mitchie was holding Shane's who was holding Jason's who wad holding Sander's. We waited for the countdown with big grins on our faces.

"10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1! HAPPY NEW YEAR!" We all cheered and screamed. Shane and Mitchie were locked in a kiss and Jason ran off stage to kiss Mara so I turned facing Nate. I smiled and locked our lips together.

"I'm sorry." I whispered as we came apart. He smiled and kissed me again.

"I'm sorry too. Truce?" He held his hand out.

"Truce." I replied, shaking his hand. I giggled and kissed him again. Best New Years Day ever! "Who knew at exactly," I looked at my watch. "12 a.m on Thursday 1st January, We'll make up?" I asked. He looked like he was pausing for a thought.

"Yeah, weird huh?" He said. I nodded and dragged him off the stage. All our kisses were probably going to be in the magazines sometime today but who cares?!

...

"Happy New Year, darlings." Mom said, hugging me and Cornie.

"Happy New Year, mama." We replied, kissing her cheek. I bet the paps got that picture because we were outside waiting for our limo. Mom was staying with us in New York at her favourite hotel for a while so she didn't have to drive for 2 hours at midnight.

Our limo pulled up a couple of minutes later and we got in. It was my mother's personal limo and with us in it was; Mitchie, Mara and Connect 3. "Your limo is huge, Ms Wynwood!" Jason exclaimed. CoCo and I rolled our eyes. We've been in here loads of times!

My Mom laughed, "Yes it is. Perks of owning a marvellous dance academy. Anyway, you guys won't make it for CJ's wedding." She said sadly. We all sighed.

"We could take like three weeks off. I mean, one for the wedding, one for Prom and one for Graduation. We don't really want to miss those. It will be like 5 months and 1 week tour. How 'bout that?" Nate suggested. My eyes lit up and I smiled.

"Seems like a very good plan. Shane, Jason will you mind missing three weeks for important milestones?" I asked. Mitchie, Mara and I got on our knees in the spacy limo. "Please?" We chorused.

The guys rolled their eyes and nodded. "Fine! I'm sure we can miss three weeks for our girlfriends..." Shane said and Mitchie kissed him.

"Get a room!" I said, looking away.

"Shut up Kitty Cat, we have to survive you and Nate snogging your faces off, leave them be." Mara said. Nate and I glared at her and she shrunk in her seat. "At least Jason and I don't." She whispered but we heard!

"I can't wait for your wedding, sis!" I exclaimed. "Guess where your reception is going to be at?" I asked, but I didn't let anyone answer because I said it. "Disney World's Magic Kingdom! I know a guy who knows the owner and he closed it for a day for you! How cool is that?" I said, taking a deep breath.

"Trés cool, Cat!" Cornelia said, hugging me. I giggled and hugged her back. "I love you Caitlyn." She said.

"I love you too Cornelia." I replied, smiling softly.

****Three Weeks Later****

"Oh my gosh! One thing I forgot to do! The person who's walking me down the aisle! How can I forget that on my wedding day, Caitlyn?!" Cornelia said, shaking me. She was wearing a strapless ball gown wedding dress with white pumps. I put my hand gently on her shoulders and stroked them.

"My dear sister, how about our dear mother, Rebecca?" I offered. Cornie smiled then kissed my cheek.

"Thanks! Mom, can you walk me down the aisle?" She asked. My mother came up to us and nodded grabbing CoCo's hands.

"I'd love to, sweetheart." Cornie looked at me and grinned.

"Please Cait? Will you walk me down too?" She asked me. My eyes widened and I looked around.

"Ok...?" I said, scared. But I shouldn't be scared, it was her wedding day after all. "Right, let's get to the church before Tim wonders where his beautiful, astonishing bride is. Thea, you ready?" I asked my close friend who had just gotten her hair done.

"Yup. Cait, your hair is a bit tangled." She said, fixing my hair. It was white-blonde with golden-blonde highlights at the bottom. I had it specially done for my big sister's wedding. When she was done fixing it we all went into the white limo which was taking us to the church.

When we got there, there was loads of guest and celebrities and the guys from Lava, including Michael and Sander. Connect 3, Mara and Mitchie were there and they all awed at my appearance. And of course, the bride's.

"Hey Kitty Cat. You look great. But I gotta say, your sister looks better. And love the hair." Mara said, hugging me. I hugged Mitchie and said thanks.

"Yeah, I do look better than my little sister. It is my wedding, isn't it?" Cornie teased.

"I think everyone should go in now. I'm walking my sister down the aisle." I gushed and suggested. They all laughed and went in. In the space of five minutes, the entrance was cleared and it just left me, Mom, CoCo and Thea. Thea went in first on her own, with her blue forget-me-nots in her hands. The door closed and I felt CoCo's body tense. "Hey, Cornie, you'll be alright. As soon as you see Tim, your fears and worries will melt away." I said. Our mother said this before, like yesterday to her because she was pacing.

"Yeah. Thank you." Cornie said, looking at me, smiling before turning to the door. The wedding march began and the door opened, signalling for us to enter. We joined our arms, holding our bouquets except Mom who's right arm was holding Cornelia's. We began walking in and I kept my eyes straight so I wouldn't be distracted.

I saw Tim smiling in our direction in his black tux with a forget-me-not tucked in his suit. We got to the front of the church and gave Cornelia away to Tim. I took my place on the left side next to CoCo. "We are here today, to witness the joining of Timothy James Stacy and Cornelia Jacqueline Gellar Wynwood." The Priest began. I guess Cornie wanted Gellar there. Who was I to judge? I will skip the vows and stuff because I bet you want to get to the I do's and etcetera. "Do you, Timothy, take Cornelia Jacqueline to be your lawfully wedded wife?" He asked.

"I do." Tim smiled while putting the ring on her finger.

"And do you, Cornelia Jacqueline, take Timothy to be your lawfully wedded husband?" The Priest asked.

"I do." Cornelia replied, putting the ring on his finger. I could tell she wanted to say 'Damn right, I do!'. But it was a church and 'damn' was a swear word for the church.

"Well, I present you as Husband and Wife, you may kiss the bride." Tim didn't waste any time making out with my sister and I coughed a little and Cornie blushed a bit. Everyone stood up and cheered as we made our way down the aisle. CoCo and Tim went inside their personal limo while Thea, Mitchie, Mara and I joined my Mom in hers.

"You looked so cute walking down your big sister." Mara gushed. I blushed and grinned.

"That was an awesome moment. By the way, did you see Taylor Lautner and Brad Pitt?" I asked.

"Oh my gosh! Did you meet them?" Mara asked me and Thea.

"Did we meet them? We know them. But no setting up dates, we all have boyfriends!" I exclaimed. The girls giggled and we kept chatting till we got to Disney World. I saw the boys' limo pull up and we immediately got out of ours. I ran up to Nate and hugged him from behind.

"Hey Beautiful." He turned kissing me. "You looked great walking your sister down the aisle." He said. I smiled and kissed him.

"Thanks. I was scared to but it's Cornelia's big day, she should be scared." I replied. I greeted Shane and Jason with kisses on their cheeks and them telling me that I looked good with my best friends complaining with me assuring them. Jealous much girls? "Oh gotta take my place at the High Table. I'll see you guys after the speeches. Love you!" I called walking. They replied 'Love you too!' and I smiled.

Everyone took their seats and chatted for 10 minutes. I just chatted to Cornelia who I was next to and my Mom on my right. CoCo told me to say something and I declined but Tim and Mom urged me too then that brought Thea, Moira and Jimmi saying I should. Then that brought Tim's Best Men, John and Tom urging me too until I cracked.

"Fine, guys!" I whispered. They all cheered and everyone looked at us, smiling. I saw my friends and my boyfriend in one of the front tables looking at me. I sighed and stood up with my glass of non-alcoholic drink. I got my fork and tapped it a couple of times before putting it down after I got the room's attention. "Hi, as most of you know, I'm Caitlyn Alice, sister of the annoying bride..." I began, earning laughs from the room. "And I want to say a few words because everyone on the High Table told me to. So, let me start with this.

"I met Cornelia 18 years ago in a hospital when she was seven years old." I said. Cornelia nudged me a bit to skip the introduction. "But they need to know all that before I get to my speech!" I whispered. She whispered something rude and I looked taken aback. "Well, excuse me, but you forced me into this!" I whispered back. Everyone was laughing at our little argument and it snapped us back to reality. "Sorry everyone,apparently I should skip some parts and get to it. So yeah, I remember when we were kids planning our dream weddings, but at the time, she was a teenager. We used to have fun doing this and I am really happy she got her dream wedding.

"She is the best big sister I could ever ask for and I wouldn't change anything about her even her flaws. So, congratulations big sis and I hope you and Tim have many happy years and lots of nieces and nephews for me and Thea, ok?" I concluded and everyone laughed. I sat back down and Cornie hugged me and I kissed her cheek.

...

"So you guys are going back on tour." I said. Shane, Jason, Nate, Mitchie, Mara and I were outside the reception tent in the garden chatting as the night grew darker. The boys nodded solemnly.

"Don't worry, we'll be here, waiting for you to come back." Mara smiled. Jason took her hand in his and kissed it. I smiled softly at the gesture and thought they were really cute together.

"Don't forget, you're coming to Prom and Graduation, no excuses!" Mitchie said. We all laughed and sighed.

"We have to put another month on if we are missing a couple of weeks, though." Shane said.

"At least you're going to see us." Mitchie said. The boys nodded.

"So instead of June, you'll be back at the end of July?" Mara asked. The boys nodded again. Thea and her boyfriend Roy came out a couple of minutes later and caught sight of us. They made their way to the table and squished on a side.

"What's up, my homies?" Thea said, trying to be urban. I laughed and told her to stick to English.

"Nothing much, just chilling, my sister!" I said. Thea and I were officially sisters-in-laws-in-laws, if you get what I mean.

"Awesome. Anyway, this is Roy, my boyfriend." She introduced us. "And Roy, this is Caitlyn, my sister-in-law's little sister." She said. I smiled and greeted him by shaking his hand.

"I saw you at Madison Square Garden. You were cool. Thea says you have an amazing voice, and so do you, Mitchie." He said, taking notice of a famous singer sitting with us.

"Thanks." Mitchie and I chorused. Cornelia came out and spotted me walking down to me.

"Hey Caitlyn Alice, Mom's boyfriend wants to see both of us, so, can you get your fucking ass up and come with me?" She asked as sweetly as possible. My friends laughed and I rolled my eyes.

"Seriously?! You insult me, tell me I'm a cool sister after saying nice things at your wedding then you call my ass fucking?!" I asked. Cornelia burst out laughing and so did I. Everyone stopped and looked at us weirdly. "Sister...moment." I gasped. They all nodded and laughed. "Be right back, my homies!" I said, leaving the table. I tried to but a thread of my dress got stuck on the nail. "Oh shit...My dress got caught. Nate can you be a darling and take it out please." I asked my boyfriend. He kept tugging at it and it ripped. "You didn't!" I exclaimed.

"Sorry..." Nate apologised sheepishly. I started whining and managed to get out. The boys laughed and my friends and Thea gasped.

"Is it bad?" I whined. They nodded. "Nathaniel, you are so dead. You better start running and I'll give you ten seconds because I am going to kill you with my bare hands." I said, taking off my earrings and my heels. I saw Nate running for his life and I ran after him everyone cheering me to go. "Nathan! You're so slow...!" I said, laughing. Jason and Shane caught him and turned him to face me. "Hello, my dear boyfriend. Now I am going to explain to guests why my dress looks like something Madonna should wear. Speaking of which, she's in the tent. I am going to kill you now." I smiled. I slapped him and he moaned.

"Ouch. Hate much?" He asked. I scoffed and told the boys to let him go.

"Hmm, I don't know. Rip your girlfriend's bridesmaid dress silly much?" I laughed, following my sister inside the tent. I met my Mom's boyfriend, Peter and chatted for a while. He was an accountant and had a son from a previous marriage. His son was called Oliver and he was around somewhere. He was twenty years old and had brown hair. He came through the crowd and greeted us.

"Hey, I'm Oliver. And I guess you, are Caitlyn." He said, with one eyebrow up and leaning into my personal space.

"Yes. I am. Oh, there's my Natey." I said, seeing Nate walk up to us. "Oliver, meet my boyfriend Nate." I said. They exchanged pleasantries and Nate and I walked off.

"Who was that?" He asked. I shrugged.

"It was Mom's boyfriend's son." I replied. He nodded and we went back to our table to chat to our friends.

"Nate, that was Michael on the phone, we have to go now." Jason said, getting up.

"Awh!" Us girls said. "We'll miss you!" We then said. The guys laughed and kissed our cheeks. Well, our boyfriends made out with us.

"I'll see you in five months, Caity my little Tiger." He said, wrapping his arms around my waist and leaning our foreheads together.

"I'll see you in five months, Natey my little Wolfie." I giggled. "I love you."

"I love you too." He smiled. We kissed again and let go of each other. I waved bye as he and his brothers got into their limo. I hugged Mitch and Mazz and watch their limo exit the park.

"They'll be back." Mara said. Yeah, they'll be. They're even taking time off for us.

Mitchie and I decided we'll make a song. We had it ready and everything so all we needed to do was record all my songs including that and do the music videos. That's how Mara, Mitchie and I found ourselves at the record label. Mitchie and I waited in the booth for Yvonne to give us the heads up. She did and the song started.

[Caitlyn:]
Drivin' down Sunset on a Saturday night
It's gettin' kinda crazy under the lights
But we don't care we're passing our time
Watchin' those L.A. Boyz roll by

[Mitchie:]
In their droptops, Harleys, Escalades too
A hundred different flavors to vary your view
There's one for me, and there's one for you
Watchin' them L.A. Boyz roll through

[Caitlyn and Mitchie:]
Lookin' so hot down in Hollywood
You know they got, got the goods
So let's give it up for those L.A. Boyz
Ridin' the waves up in Malibu
They really get, get to you
So let's give it up for those L.A. Boyz

[Bridge:]
Give it up, give it up
You don't have no choice
Give it up, give it up
For the L.A. Boyz

[Caitlyn:]
West side, East side, everywhere between
Rockstars jammin' the promenade for free
Flippin' their skateboards on Venice beach
L.A. Boyz come play with me
Turn it up
Turn it up
And come play with me

[Mitchie and Caitlyn:]
Lookin' so hot down in Hollywood
You know they got, got the goods
So let's give it up for those L.A. Boyz
Ridin' the waves up in Malibu
They really get, get to you
So let's give it up for those L.A. Boyz

[Bridge:]
Put your number in my phone, oh, maybe I'll call you, maybe not
What you doin' all alone?
Come show me what you got, boy
Show me what you got, got boy
What you got boy show me what you... GOT!

We finished the song and Mitchie left the booth so I could record my other songs. When I was finished we were prepped for the music videos. When I was done with that we all went to my apartment because Cornelia and Tim were on their honeymoon.

We had fun and had chinese takeaway and were mimicking our boyfriends and texting Thea at the same time. "Hey turn on Hot Tunes." Mara said, lying down on her belly. It was Saturday, so we can't enjoy ourselves? Mitchie turned the TV to Hot Tunes and there was a story about my boyfriend.

"Seems like Nate Gray had a great time touring England with Mandolin Fairhurst yesterday. The Connect 3 singer and the up and coming new actress were seeing 'hanging out' and going to the movies. Then after the movies the two were seen hugging and kissing each other's cheeks. Seems like Nate has some explaining to do with Caitlyn, Rebecca Wynwood's 18 year old daughter. I am Jessica Bonne and this is Hot Tunes, stay tuned!"

Mitchie quickly changed the TV channel to some cooking show. I was hot and fuming inside. I grabbed my iPhone and dialed Nate's number. It was probably 1 p.m in England. "Hello?" Nate said.

"Hello Nathaniel." I said in monotone.

"Oh, hey Beautiful. What's up?" He asked, cheerfully.

"Hmm, I don't know. Maybe the fact that my boyfriend may be cheating on me." I said, coldly. I heard Nate sigh and groan.

"Look, Caity, Mando is only a friend. I saw her at the mall yesterday and decided to hang out with her. I've never been to England and guess what? She's British and had lived here all her life. So babe, don't be jealous ok? Oh wait..." He said. I heard a girl laughing and raised my eyebrow at Mitchie and Mara. I put the phone on loudspeaker and told them to listen.

"Nate, put the phone away, we're not done yet!" Mandolin said. Mitchie and Mara's eyes widened.

"I'm on the phone to my girlfriend. I haven't talk to her in weeks, Mando. We'll finish that later." Nate said. I smiled at his defence.

"But...You haven't talked to me in minutes. Let's hang up...and finish this game." Mandolin said, seductively. Oh shit, my boyfriend is being taken from me and I'm listening to it.

"Caity? I have to go. Our agent just called us. Love you." He said. I sighed and looked at my friends to say, 'Look who I'm dating? Yeah, he's a jerk.'.

"Hmm, she sounds a lot like she's seducing you. Don't bother calling, Nate. We're done." I said, hanging up. I took a deep breath and started crying. Oh no...

It had been three weeks since our breakup and it was now March. Cornelia and Tim were back from their honeymoon and I was really depressed. I called in sick most days and did my homework and gave it to Mara or Mitchie to hand in. Apparently, I was off with a serious syndrome. Something to do with depression. Oh yeah, post-natal depression. I will sulk all around the house. Until, today, which was Saturday. I decided to go bar hopping with some older friends. Well, Tim owned this night club with his friends Tom and John so I decided to go there. I wore a sparkly silver strapless short dress with silver matching heels and my signature wrap-around bow which was silver too.

I got in my car and drove down to 'Forever' night club. I was easily let in because I pulled the, 'I am the owner's sister-in-law, I have proof.' I met my friends at the bar and hugged them. "You made it!" One of them said.

"Yeah, I am the owner's sister-in-law!" I shouted over the loud thumping music. I ordered gin and tonic and down it in one go. Then I ordered some more drinks and more and more until my head was ringing and my vision was blurring. I didn't know who I was dancing with but I didn't care. It was 2 a.m on Sunday and I wanted some fun. The guy I danced with pulled me to an empty room and pushed my against the wall and started making out with me. I reluctantly kissed back. He moved me to the desk and started slipping his trousers and pants down. I didn't know what was happening because my vision was still blurry.

He pulled my pants down and I gasped and blacked out.

...

Next thing I knew, I was in my bedroom and my clothes from last night was still on. Oh my goodness, I've been raped again. I was sobbing hopelessly until Cornelia came in and hugged me. "Tim said that he got a call from John saying that you were there then the next dragged into a room. Oh baby, shh, don't cry no more." Cornie tried calming me down. When she succeeded, I showered and dressed into denim shorts and a white tank top with a white cotton net tank top completed with white converse.

I went down and saw that the time was evening. I called over some guy from yesterday who I hung out with and asked if he wanted to go out and he agreed. I looked into Tim's drink bar and got vodka and whiskey and mixed them together and downed it. What? I need something to help me get over the fact that I got fucked again. I still had a hell of a hangover but who cares? Robin came over, finally, and we left to a nearby club and got in easily. I pulled my famous status card again and Robin was 22 so yeah.

We did shots and had a couple of drinks on the side. It was 9 p.m and I left the bar with Robin laughing and barely being able to walk in a straight line. We linked our arms and walked slowly in order to get our visions fixed and walk in a straight line. Luckily, my house was near this place so we could walk. I saw a flash and a couple more and the paparazzi surrounding me. I heard Robin trying to get them to back off and I covered my face because it was too embarrassing. I didn't want my mother driving up for 3 hours just to get her underaged daughter set straight.

We ran into the apartment building and let security deal with them. Robin left and kissed me goodnight and I smiled. I didn't feel sparks or fireworks like I felt with Nate but who cares. He and I are done. I think.

Nate's POV:

I turned to Hot Tunes on my hotel room's TV. Surprisingly, the was a story about Caitlyn. I sighed and highered the volume. Shane and Jason joined me and we all sat there listening to Jessica Bonne tell us what little ol' Caitlyn was doing.

"Seems like this good girl's turned bad and knows how to have a good time! Caitlyn Alice Wynwood was seen partying and drinking in brother-in-law, Tim Stacy's nightclub. Apparently, Tim knew nothing about his wife's minor sister drinking in his club because he was home with wife, Cornelia Jacqueline and said Caitlyn told them she was going to a friend's party. When we questioned him, he said 'No Comment'. Caitlyn was seen a few hours later being carried home by Tim. And today, the wild party cat was seen with a unidentified man drinking at a bar near home. Seems like Nate Gray of Connect 3 has broken Rebecca's Golden Child. I'm Jessica Bonne and this is Hot Tunes, stay tuned!" I sighed and turned the TV off. Shit, what did I do? I did sleep with Mando but that was a big mistake. And now, Caitlyn's probably going to get arrested and hate me for the rest of her life.

"Why, Nate?" Shane asked. He was staring at the blank TV screen and I could see his jaw was tensed. I shrugged and sighed.

"Shouldn't you be asking Caitlyn that question?" I asked back. Shane stared at me before taking his phone out and dialling a number. It was Mitchie and he wanted her to check if Caitlyn was alright but Mitchie said she wasn't and that she barely talked to her or Mara for weeks and that she's been depressed lately. See, still my fault.

"We need to do something. This is probably going to be the worst Prom ever for Caitlyn." Jason said. Caitlyn could take that guy she was with, can't she?

"Whatever. She's moved on." I said, sighing.

"Nate, she had to. She heard you sleeping with Mandolin, you idiot!" Shane said, smacking my head. I groaned and left the room. I got my phone out and dialled a number

"Hey Mando? How would you like going bar hopping tonight...? You will? Ok, see you then!" I hung up and sighed. Let's play dirty, Caity.

Caitlyn's POV:

I hate Nate, I hate him! How dare he goes out with her? They even flew back here and he took her everywhere we went. The restaurant where we had our first date. And when I say everywhere, I mean everywhere. He took her on a one-week holiday to Hawaii, just because she'd never been. That's where he spent that one week off. He wasn't coming to Prom, you see. I sighed and continued reading all the shit about Nate. Oh my goodness, he even went surfing with her and watched the sun set and picked her up bridal style. He's mimicking everything he did with me to her. Call that denial or what?

It was June and Prom was next week. I wasn't going and I wasn't intending to. Mara and Mitchie were going with Jason and Shane and Nate will be in Manchester in London writing songs for the band. I flipped over on my bed and stared at my ceiling. Was I really a alcoholic? Was I a whore? Tears escaped my eyes. I want my Wolfie. When he looked at me, all my worries and fears just left me. I looked at the Promise Ring he gave me for Christmas and took it off. It was no use now. He's gone and got himself another slut. I got my guitar and started saying words as they left my mouth.

Uh!
Mmm, yeah.
La la la la laaa
Uh!

Hey, boy you never had much game
Thought I needed to upgrade
So I went and walked away way way
Uh
Now, I see you've been hanging out
With that other girl in town
Looking like a pair of clowns clowns clowns
Uh

Remember all the things that you and I did first?
And now you're doing them with her
Remember all the things that you and I did first?
You got me, got me like this
Uh
And now you're taking her to every restaurant
And everywhere we went, come on!
And now you're taking her to every restaurant
You got me, got me like this
Uh

Boy you can say anything you wanna
I don't give a shh, no one else can have ya
I want you back
I want you back
Wa-want you, want you back
Uh
I broke it off thinking you'd be cryin'
Now I feel like shh looking at you flyin'
I want you back
I want you back
Wa-want you, want you back
Uh

Please, this ain't even jealousy (jealousy)
She ain't got a thing on me (a thing on me)
Tryin' to rock them ugly jeans jeans jeans
Uh
You clearly didn't think this through
If what I've been told is true (is it true?)
You'll be crawling back like boo hoo hoo
Uh

Ohhh, I thought you'd still be mine
When I kissed you goodbye uh oh uh oh
Ohhh, and you might be with her
But I still had you first uh oh uh oh

Ohhh-Oh-oh-oh
Boy you can say anything you wanna
I don't give a shh, no one else can have ya
I want you back
I want you back
Wa-want you, want you back

I broke it off thinking you'd be cryin'
Now I feel like shh looking at you flyin'

Wa-want you, want you back
Uh la la la la laaa

(Let me know)

Ohhh, I want you back
I want you back
Wa-want you, want you back
Uh

Life was just dandy, wasn't it? Whatever...

...

****Three Weeks Later****

Oh my God, it's Graduation day. I was standing in a long queue with Mitchie a couple of spaces ahead of me. Mara was in the 'P' section because her surname was Paves. My Mom, Cornelia, Tim and Thea were out there supporting me. I know what you're thinking, a) Thea's here? Yup, she graduates next week. And b) Is Nate here? Because Shane and Jason are. Well yes, Nate is here. His brothers forced him to come. Apparently, he didn't want to see the 'bitch' again. I smiled at his new nickname for me.

Student after student went and got their diplomas and when it was Mara's..., "Mara Hannah Paves!" we all screamed and cheered for her. I giggled as she looked at me and Mitchie shaking his diploma from hand to hand. Mara, the bird-loving, clown, girl who's awesome.

Twenty people later, it was Mitchie's turn. "Michaela Tatiana Torres!" I screamed and cheered for her. She waved at the audience and at me. A couple of people later, it was my turn and I felt absolutely scared. I took a deep breath and waited till our principal called my name. "Caitlyn Alice Wynwood!" I stepped on stage with my white Converse and smiled to the crowd. My Mom was embarrassing me by screaming 'Caitlyn's my daughter!' and Cornelia was embarrassing me by screaming 'That's my baby sister!'. Thea and Tim cheered for me and I giggled and accepted my diploma. I joined my best friends on the other side of the stage and we did a happy dance.

"I was scared to death!" I whispered. Mara and Mitchie laughed.

"Me too, but it all kinda just went when I saw my Mami and Papi cheering for me." Mitchie smiled. Mitchie is Spanish, if you didn't know. And Mara's Chinese.

"Yeah...Nate cheered really hard for you Caitlyn." Mara said. I looked at her shocked then looked at Nate who was next to his brothers and caught him staring at me. I quickly looked away and blushed.

"He's staring at me." I whispered. The girls 'subtly' looked in his direction and made it to look like they were looking and waving and smiling at their boyfriends. Who waved and smiled back to keep up the 'stare'.

"Ignore him." Mitchie said, rubbing my arm. I shook my head and sighed.

"I can't, I still love him." I whispered. Mitchie was about to say something till Jeanette came to us.

"Hi Caitlyn! Your Mom is there and I managed to talk to her. I'm thinking of dancing instead of singing, you know?" She said. I nodded and smiled.

"Well, I hope you get in because the bars are raised high now. Not just anyone can get in. Only the best. One flop and you're out." I said. Jeanette's eyes widened and she fanned herself with her hand. She nodded and left us. Mitchie and Mara burst out laughing.

"Wow, are they really?" Mara asked.

"Yeah... That's why she'll never get in." I smiled. Hugging my friends, we made our ways to our families. Mara went to hers and Mitchie went to hers too so I did the same thing.

"You were gorgeous up there, Kitty C." Thea said hugging me. Mom and CoCo hugged me too and Tim gave me a handshake before pulling me into a bone crashing hug. When he let go, I smiled and giggled. I saw Nate heading my way and quickly went and joined Mara and Jason who were with Mitchie and Shane.

"Hi guys!" I said, hugging Shane and Jason.

"Congrats." They said. I smiled and shrugged. No biggie, right? Nah, I'm kidding, big biggie. Nate joined us and tried to stand as far as possible away from me. I didn't care so I flicked my white-blonde, golden-blonde hair and smiled.

"Caitlyn Alice! We want to take a picture of you and your diploma. Come!" Cornelia said. I smiled and told them I'll be right back. I took a couple of pictures and joined my friends. Wow a very eventful beginning of the year.

"So, party at mine? Everyone, including your parents are invited! Just to celebrate, us Graduates." I said, leaning my elbow on Mara's shoulder. Mara got my arm off and smiled at me.

"I ain't missing a party that has my name on it!" She exclaimed. We laughed and I waltzed around with her.

"Hey, it's mine too!" Mitchie said, joining us. We were three eighteen year olds waltzing around the school's yard.

"I guess, it's a plan." I shrugged, twisting Mitchie around. I twirled and twisted Mara around, too. We fell and giggled. The boys just watched us as if we were silly. But who cares? I obviously don't.

...

Our party was in full swing and many students from our school were here with their families. My Mom and my sister were around serving drinks and food. I stood and chatted and looked up to see the banner which said, 'HAPPY GRADUATION, CAITLYN, MITCHIE, MARA AND EVERYONE!' which my mother had specially ordered.

I went around trying to find some drinks and I bumped into somebody who I so did not want to bump into. "Congratulations." Nate sighed, trying to step away from me but failing.

"Thank you." I smiled and sighed. "Can we be civil?" I asked, not looking into his eyes. I had the courage to and saw him smiling at me. I smiled back and he nodded. We hugged briefly and he went to the stage where my piano was. I was confused at first then saw Shane and Jason go up too.

"Ok, this is the first time we'll be singing this song so, we hope you enjoy it." Shane said into the microphone. I found Mara and Mitchie who wore curious expressions on their faces and we all turned to watch the boys sing.

There's a storm coming up
and I gotta prepare myself.
'Cause this feeling's
getting stronger everyday.

Something's creeping inside
everything is about to change.
Gotta face the fact
that I can't walk away.

This is critical,
I'm feeling helpless.
So hysterical, this can't be healthy.
I can't eat or sleep
when you're not with me.
Baby, you're the air breath.
This is critical, yeah.
So stuck on you.

Used to have everything figured out
but it's different now.
When you came, you saw
you conquered my heart.

It's your laugh and your smile;
wanna stay for a little while.
I don't wanna go,
I just want you in my arms.

Used to run and hide.
Used to bend our love.
But I can't escape this time.
Oh no.

This is critical,
I'm feeling helpless.
So hysterical, this can't be healthy.
I can't eat or sleep
when you're not with me.
You're the air breath.
This is critical, yeah.

Baby it's so critical,
it's so critical, yeah.
It's so critical,
it's so critical, yeah

Us girls gasped and then the room erupted in cheers. You could hear my claps louder than the rest. This is when I decided to sing my song that I made. I had sang it to Mitchie and Mara and they burst out laughing so I got them to sing with me. We all made our way to my stage and I smiled, adjusting the mic.

"Hey people!" I shouted, the room cheering. "I made a song and the beats and edited on my good ol' laptop, Rihanna. I know right, Rihanna? I named her that 'cause I'm cool." I said, the room laughed. "After, I'll sing another song with my best friends, so, enjoy!" I said and with that I strummed my guitar and sang into my mic.

Uh!
Mmm, yeah.
La la la la laaa
Uh!

Ohhh, I thought you'd still be mine
When I kissed you goodbye uh oh uh oh
Ohhh, and you might be with her
But I still had you first uh oh uh oh

(Let me know)

Ohhh, I want you back
I want you back
Wa-want you, want you back
Uh

The room cheered and I giggled. I started the next song and had a friend of mine on the drums. She was really good. I was lead singer, Mitchie was guitar and Mara was bass. "Alright! Here's, 'Here's to never growing up'!" I said.

Singing Radiohead at the top of our lungs
With the boom box blaring as we're falling in love
I got a bottle of whatever, but it's getting us drunk
Singing here's to never growing up

Call up all our friends, go hard this weekend

If you stay forever hey
We can stay forever young

Singing Radiohead at the top of our lungs
With the boom box blaring as we're falling in love

Singing, here's to never growing up

We'll be running down the street, yelling "Kiss my ass!"
I'm like yeah whatever, we're still living like that

Singing, here's to never growing up

Oh whoa, oh whoa, here's to never growing up
Oh whoa, oh whoa, here's to never growing up

We live like rock stars, dance on every bar
This is who we are, I don't think we'll ever change (hell no!)

Oh whoa, oh whoa, here's to never growing up

I had got the whole freakin' room dancing to my beat. I laughed and thanked everyone and wished them well in the future and safe journies. I couldn't face Nate after I sang that song so I went straight into the bathroom. I locked the door and sighed. Thank goodness that this was one of the rooms that was sound proof. You couldn't hear anything outside and they couldn't hear anything inside. Unless you knock on the door, real hard. I started crying and I was really thankful that I left my makeup bag inside the cabinet.

Nate's POV:

I tried looking for Caitlyn but she disappeared. I sighed and went to get a drink when I smelt burning. It was rubber burning. I turned my head to the left and saw the amplifier on fire. Shrieks and screams and shouting filled the air as people ran out the door.

"Nate! Come on." Jason said, holding Mara and pulling me out.

"Caitlyn's in there! I gotta get her." I said. Jason told me that she probably went downstairs with her family. I sighed and ran down the stairs after Mitchie and Shane and people's families. I hoped Caitlyn was alright and downstairs. I couldn't cope if she wasn't.

We all fled downstairs and out the apartment lobby. I looked around and looked up. I saw the apartment in flames. I heard Cornelia crying about her house and stuff. I felt sorry for them. I had to find Caitlyn so I went and called her name. Firefighters were everywhere, blocking my way, causing me to weave through them.

Cornelia's POV:

I cried about my house and realised something. Caitlyn wasn't with us. I looked around and saw my mother talking to a student's parent and decided to find Cait first before worrying my Mom. "Caitlyn?" I called. "Cait, where are you?" I shouted, weaving in and out of people. I got to Mitchie, Shane, Jason and Mara and asked them, "Hey, have you seen my sister?" I asked. They suddenly panicked and shook their heads.

"Nate told me he needed to find her. He went that way." Jason said. I thanked him and ran to that direction. I ended up reaching Tim and saw Nate turning around looking for my sister.

"I cant find Caitlyn, Tim." I whispered, looking at him with weary eyes. He hugged me and shushed me, telling me she was around, safe. Only she wasn't. I looked up at the bathroom window and saw Caitlyn coughing and gagging, trying to call somebody to help. "OH MY GOD. Caitlyn! Don't worry we'll get someone up there." I shouted to the opened window. Tim and Nate followed my eyes and their eyes widened.

Caitlyn's POV:

I coughed and waved trying to catch someone's attention. I saw Cornie look up at me and gagged. I heard her say something and run away. I saw Tim and Nate telling me to calm down, but I couldn't I felt so faint and tired and my lungs felt like closing up. I tried breathing but I couldn'. I found myself having a panic attack and I heard a crack. I slowly looked to the left and saw a white painted wooden beam swinging fast in my direction. And before I knew it, I was knocked unconscious.

Nate's POV:

I shouted her name as the beam hit her and she collapsed. It all seemed in slow motion and I saw a couple of firefighters run in. Mitchie, Mara, Shane and Jason looked at where I was looking and looked at me, horror on their faces.

"Tell me, she isn't..." Mitchie whispered, her eyes filled with tears, falling down. I didn't say or do anything. I stared at the now flamed window. "Nate, did the fire kill her?" Mitchie whispered. I swore that I was crying because Shane and Jason hugged me and I let my sobs fall. Just because we had a messy breakup didn't mean that I still didn't love her anymore.

I heard someone yell for the paramedics and I turned seeing Caitlyn's body being carried by a firefighter. She had blood on her head and her arms were burnt. She looked dead. I saw Cornelia run up to the ambulance and cry for her sister. She was dead. I felt like my heart stopped.

Then, I saw the paramedic put the oxygen thingy over her mouth and nose and we all stared, looking for any signs that she'll be ok. We all hoped so. They pushed the gurney into the ambulance and Rebecca got in, and they drove away. Cornelia stood with Tim and Thea hugging her, probably consoling her. I just hoped, my Caity, my Tiger, my Beautiful, would be ok.

This was the longest chapter I have ever written in my fanfic life. Caitlyn will be ok. This is her story afterall?! Just one thing. You know Rebecca? I did not name her character after me. I named her after a show I watched and then I realised that I just loved my name so much, I'll use it. Anyway. My Mom is okay. She got discharged a couple of days ago, so I didn't update sooner. She's laughing and having fun. We even watched loads of movies today and yesterday. So now I am happy, hope for loads of chapters and please review. I love reviews, 'cause they make me so happy.
