Chapter 8 (part 2)

*Long ass fucking chapter so enjoy! Also watch out for the reference for a dedication! Remember you have to NAME THE SONG...IMPORTANT if we can get this chapter to 50 comments and votes...I know a lot blah blah blah, I will update every day for a whole week eh, eh. Seem like a fair deal? This chapter is dedicated to TheWonderfulE they were the person closest to naming the song!:) So congrats and as usual I wanted to dedicate this to a lot but there is only one winner.*

Sunday finally came, and to say we are nervous in an understatement. We managed to come up with five songs for the gig tonight. The other night Kellin came down to watch us practice and surprisingly learned that he could also sing so we made a part for him to sing in a song we were hesitant on, but now it sounded perfect with his vocals. I'm glad Kellin was around, not just because he made good company, but because he made Vic happy.

What really gridded my gears was Mike. Ever since that night we cuddled he has been avoiding me like the plague. We've exchanged a few words here and there but it was about music or asking to pass the remote. Jaime was clueless about it but Vic would watch us sometimes giving me a knowing look. He'd try to talk to me about it when he had the chance, but I manage to get out of it.

There was an hour left before we had to go down to my work to set up stuff so we decided to practice the songs to make sure we had them down. Luckily, when we were playing was the only time I don't think about Mike. I've been talking to Austin a lot more to distract me from him too and he said he understood. I decided to tell Austin about everything I felt and he was there for me any time I needed him. I fûcking love Jaime, don't get me wrong but, it was easier to tell him stuff like this because he went through the same thing with his ex Giselle (idk how to spell her name). With Jaime I'd feel like he would make it was too obvious for everyone to know I like Mike.

After the last song was played my cheeks hurt so bad from smiling, but it quickly disappeared once I saw Marcy. I wouldn't have second guessed myself to tell her to go away but right next to her was her mom. She gave a big smile and wave so I decided to set my guitar down and suck down the little pride I had left from whatever Mikey has taken.

The air was knocked out of me once Stella (Marcy's mom) came and hugged the living crap out of me, "Awhh hijto, your mother told me about the little gig you guys were doing tonight! You don't mind if we come along tonight right?" she was pinching my cheeks a little to hard and quickly moved back a bit.

Jaime came over and mimicked Stella by grabbing my cheeks making little baby noises, "Liddo tony won't mind, huh? The more the merrier." He puckered his lips at me.

"Hello, Jaime," Stella crossed her arms giving him a disapproving look. They never got a long ever since Marcy's 12th birthday. The three of us used to be good friends when we were younger so Marcy and I waited before the party for Jaime to get done with baseball practice and once he came he went head into her birthday cake, eating the whole thing.

"Awh Ms. Desmon, looking ravishing as always," he leaned his elbow on my shoulder giving a sly smile.

"Jaime, what a nice...skunk detail you have there," she gave a sour look motioning to her own hair.

I snickered over at Jaime elbowing his side, "Yeah Stella you can come!"

She started clapping while yanking Marcy to her side; Marcy was rolling her eyes and looked over at me like I was her worst enemy. Oh well.

Stella lightly smacked Marcy holding her close, "Come one Marcy, be proud of handsome little Tony here-"she gave me a little smile, "you know tony, you two should go on a date. What a cute couple you'd make!" Marcy and I both scoffed at the same time. The day Marcy and I go on a date is the day hell freezes over.
