31 Christmas Break (2)

*SLAP*...

.

.

I'm shocked because if it could my jaw would be hitting the floor, I just saw Cora slap Ashley not hard enough to leave a bruise or anything just enough so she can feel it. I quickly got in between so nothing else happens.

"Why? Why would you use Alexander like that! The least you could have did was give him credit and you didn't even do that!"

Ashley was just last looking at the floor seemingly ashamed of what she's done but then she quickly looked up glaring at both of us.

"Why should I have to give him any credit it's my video, I don't have to do anything, he's already mr. popular so I don't care about him or his stu-" She quickly closed her mouth when she saw his sad expression and her eyes Got watery, it hurt him when she said that.

I looked at her and I couldn't believe how much things have changed she used to follow me around and look at me like I was some kind of superhero, we were so close and now she's changed in to this.

I said with a shaky voice a the start "Why... Why do you hate me so much-"

"I-" she was shaking her head while trying to interrupt me and I wasn't going to have that.

"No, let me finish what I want to say. Ashley we used to be so close, what happened? When I try to talk to you, you ignore me and it's like I don't even exist and now you stand in front of me and insult me and what I love to do" I sighed and I shake my head "I tried, but if your just going to talk bad about me and use me for your own gain I'm not sure I can trust you anymore. I still love you your family but it's going to take awhile and effort on your part before I can trust you again Ashley." Cora stood by me and held my hand to provide support and I felt it and I'm grateful she is with me.

Ashley stood across from then tears flowing down her face and filled with so much sadness. She didn't mean what she said the truth is she did care about him and she missed her older cousin so much. She realized that what he said was true and now she felt like a total bitch for using him.

As Cora and I started walking back inside i looked at Ashley

I said "do what you want with your channel I don't care anymore."

(Inside)

I closed the back door after we all walked in Then we walked towards the living room. When we walk in I saw Jason and Jared's parents walking through the front door which means they're around here somewhere I greet them then me and Cora go look for them.

(Outside)

We walked past my grandparents and a few volunteers serving food and past the stage then we find them sitting at a table eating. I sit next to Jared and Cora sits next to me and Jason and Natalie are sitting on the other side.

I asked "why'd your parents go inside if your out here?"

Jason says "she's upset with Me and Jared because a club from England's EFL league Two contacted me this morning about Jared. They wanted to know how they could contact him, that's when I said he was actually my brother. They instantly started talking about how they sent a scout to the US and luckily they saw our first game in person and that they want him to sign with them. I told them I would call them back then I told Jared and my parents because he still needs their permission since he's still underage."

I yelled "What! That's great news why is she so mad?"

He said "she wants him to finish school here but we told her he could finish his education over there while in the youth academy but she wouldn't listen, she then brought up my injury and what would happen if he also got something like it and I get that she's afraid but this is a big opportunity so we are still arguing about it" I looked at Jared and he looked sad and angry at the same time.

I put a hand on his shoulder and I said "what about your dad has he said anything about it?"

He shook his head no "well then try to convince him first if he hasn't said anything then he might be on the fence about it, then your mom might eventually give in" Jared instantly perked up and had a smile on his face.

He said "yeah, your right I still have a chance. Now let's go Party!" He got up and made his way to where everyone was dancing and made his way to a few girls and started making a fool of himself and I couldn't help but laugh Everyone else at the table laughed to and like the negative energy gone, for the most part and we started enjoying the party and We all joined Jared on the dance floor after we finished eating tamales.

(Towards the end of the party)

The music was turned off and we all looked towards the stage and I saw my grandpa on the stage grinning and I instantly knew what he was planning.

Alejandro said "Ladies and gentlemen tonight we have some live entertainment for you-" I sighed but I smiled because I love music And performing it " My grandson Alexander!" Everyone started clapping and whistling and I walked towards the stage, when I got there I took the mic and I said "does anybody have a guitar?" Somebody in the crowd yelled "I got you!" and we waited while he ran across the street and came back with a Acoustic guitar that was older then mine by at least a decade but still in great condition. I put it down by the DJ I would use it later, I told the DJ witch instrumentals to play and I stood in front of the mic and I decided I would sing some songs in Spanish first then play the song I played for Cora Last. I nod to the DJ and I sing and everyone is having a great time and my grandparents are dancing together and Cora, my mom and Birdie are in the front dancing next to each other when I finish there was very loud clapping and cheering I felt happy.

I said "I have one last song for you" I picked up the guitar it was still odd singing the girls part since that's how I remembered it, 'which reminded me I would have to find someone to sing that part soon or maybe if I sign they'll have someone.' I stood in front of the mic again I started to play the guitar then I started singing while looking at Cora in front of me and she's looking at me while everyone else slow danced behind her including my mom who managed to drag my dad to the dance floor I saw Ashley sitting where her family and was looking at me sadly.

When I finish everyone clapped again and then people started yelling "Encore! Encore!" I smiled brightly and sang the song one last time, and everyone that knew him personally smiled when they saw him smile.
