The Acapulco Vacation (3/5)

Alexander has felt a new strange feeling he hasn't felt ever since he came on this vacation.

He felt an enigma on this vacation. It was expected for that to happen, the feeling was going to happen either way.

At this point, he felt happy and excited, but he also had the same thought he always had: He wasn't supposed to have come on this vacation.

It was strange how weeks have now gone by since they first came to Acapulco. The whole vacation was nothing but fun and excitement for all of them.

Selena was even joyful to know she had fans in Mexico. In every place they went, dozens of fans approach her for an autograph.

Heck, even Alex and Chris have gotten asked for autographs since they were the inspiration for people who were starting to play guitar.

This was going to happen. Even if it was in a different era–like his own–there wasn't anything different. Selena seemed to be growing faster along with her popularity than in his era.

The band had to be cautious whenever they were leaving the hotel to go to any place around Acapulco. It seems they were now recognized in Mexico.

They knew it was going to be sooner or later that they were going to tour Mexico.

Many things have happened in Acapulco in a couple of weeks.

Alex had gotten to know A.B on a personal, he would sit down and listen to the stories A.B would tell them about his past life.

He has gotten to learn many facts that he never knew in his era. Such as learning that when Selena Y Los Dinos first started, they had to use peach cans as lights.

Another one was where no one wanted to listen to Selena on stage since the Tejano music was mostly dominated by the male side which got Alex upset.

But, seeing how she broke the barrier and was growing by the second made him smile again.

Karma sure was nice against those who don't believe you.

And speaking of a certain someone. Alex had become one of the closest friends to Selena, she would always hang out with him whenever they went out somewhere with the band.

Selena would often ruffle Alex's hair just to get him annoyed. She knew he disliked having his hair being messy.

"Why do you always do that?" He would say.

"I like it when you have messy hair," She would respond with a laugh.

Alex always wondered how he became best friends with Selena. But, he would instantly dismiss that thought. He became great friends with her because of who she was.

Selena had even said it, that the reason she trusted him was that he was different than a bunch of guys who only went for one thing.

He was different since he was calm and an understanding person that understood Selena for who she was.

That was one of the things that have been happening with Alex during this vacation. A very special bond was being born.

Alex grunted as he stood up from the ground, his knee was already tired from kneeling too much.

His face we covered in sweat as it dripped from his forehead to his already sweaty shirt.

The pants that he bought a month ago were stained with mud and dirt along with his shirt, which was his favorite.
