Nate's Pov

"Bye Nate" Shane and Mitchie chorused.

"Bye guys" I called out after them before closing the door, I couldn't bear to watch them. I knew I couldn't have done anything more to make Mitchie mine. I did all that I could.

I don't think she understood what I was feeling when I told her I loved her. I really loved her. It wasn't a cheesy teen romance kind of I love you. I really knew what I was saying.

I wanted Mitchie to take a chance.

But it was the same story all over again. It was a weird feeling to tell her she was amazing, that I didn't want her to be with Shane, that I thought there was a chance that we could be together. I just had to get her mind off of Shane.

I wasn't afraid to cry, yet I didn't want to hurt myself further. Not when I had more to say. I had one more thing to tell her, the only catch was… it was going to hurt to say. It wasn't going to hinder me from telling her though.

I tried to tell her how I felt without personally telling her. But it didn't work that way, not with Mitchie. I wanted to avoid telling her.

'That girl's too good for me. That's why I can't have her' I thought. I knew it was true.

I refused to see the truth, but now that Mitchie's with Shane again, I'm forced to forget her. Or at the very least remember that this can't go on forever. It's impossible.

Because forgetting that smile, those eyes, that innocent whisper, and that amazing voice… that was impossible. I want to tell her that I miss her already, but hide it from Shane. But from now on, they'll never be apart.

''Just because it feels wrong doesn't mean it is wrong' is the one thing she said that I swear I'll never forget. But just minutes earlier, I'd lost my chance with her.

But I think I would have lost my chance with her if I had said something though. Shane would have made sure Mitchie didn't want to be with me; and I didn't want her to hate me. But I'm not sure if she'd hate me for something like that.
