Ok i have had writers block for over a year, so this is my first attempt at writing again, so apologies if its godawful.
Please review, will be greatly appreciated :)

If you love something, let it go. And if it comes back to you, then you know it's meant to be.
Mitchie Torres had always believed in this rule. She'd heard it once when she was 10 years old. Her great aunt had sat her down on the floor and told her the story of her and her husband. They had met as teenagers, and fallen completely and totally in love, only to be separated by their lives, her aunt Mary had college and David had found a well-paid job abroad. 12 years later Aunt Mary was the maid of honour to her best friend's wedding and found him standing there at the Altar. Thankfully only as the best man. That night they had completely reconnected and came back together, and married 3 years later. Aunt Mary had let Uncle David go into the world and experience all it could give him, and eventually fate brought him back.
Mitchie Torres hoped that maybe one day fate would side with her too one day.
Because today was the day she ended it with Shane Gray.
'You have so much to give to the world Shane, all your music... you don't have time for me.'
'Mitchie-'
She held her pillow tightly as she lay on her bed, turning her music up loudly to try and block out the conversation which had decided to play in a loop around her head. Over and over again.
'How am i going to do this Mitchie? Without you? You're leaving me so i can concentrate on my music? How can i do this knowing that you aren't here anymore, that you aren't waiting for me, how can i, when i have to get on that stage and sing almost every song where all i can do is think about you! Every Single Day i will be in front of thousands of people, singing our song and the only face i will want to see in that crowd is you. Only you.'
'And that's why i have to leave.'
It would get easier, he would think less and less about her, and the band would get more attention. "Heartthrob Shane Gray" would be single and the female fans would suddenly start paying even more attention knowing that he was available to them. Their record sales would shoot up.
Mitchie swallowed loudly, trying her best to keep her emotion away. Not now. She will not cry now. She was stronger than this.
'Mitchie sweetie, dinner's on the table.'
'Be there soon Mom.' She replied, carefully sounding each word as to make sure she didn't falter.
As she stood up she heard her phone buzz on her bedside table. She picked it up and flipped it open.
It was Shane.
I miss you x
Mitchie sighed, letting out a shaky breath as she typed out her reply, placing her phone back on the table. Running a hand through her hair, she straightened out her top, and opened her bedroom door, now composed and ready to go down for dinner.

I know Shane. And that's why you need to forget me. X
Shane closed his phone, pushing it across the bed and watching Nate and Jason jam on their instruments without a care in the world.
He won't forget.
He couldn't even if he wanted to try.
