5. Back To Reality

We had officially come back from Coachella. It was time to break out the party for Brea. She was leaving to do a summer project in a couple days. She would be going to Thailand to do a coral reef conservation project. For the whole summer. I was currently with Jay and Brooke at the bar in the house.  "So Brea seems to think that Hayes Campbell. The Hayes Campbell dedicated Closer to you. What do you think about that?" Jay asked me and I looked at her as I had a sip of my wine.

"I mean on one hand I think that she's crazy because who would that ever happen. But then on the other it could've been because of everything that happened." I said to them but I had never told them about what happened.

"So what did happen? I feel like we're missing this crucial part of the evidence here." Brooke said to me and I looked at her. Here we go, this was about to be all the truth. I then stood up from my stool and looked around. Good, no one was here.

"We kissed but it meant nothing. I saw Mateo and he saw me and I just turned to the closest person and asked them to kiss me." I said to them. That was the first thing off my chest.

"So you just kissed Hayes Campbell." Jay said to me like it was a casual thing.

"Well, I didn't know it was him. Not until I'd seen him on fans shirts and then it was confirmed when I was in his trailer." I said to them and that's when Jay and Brooke looked at each other and than at me.

"I'm sorry what?" Jay asked me and that's when Brooke looked at me as well.

"You were in his trailer?" Brooke asked me and this was going to be something they'd never forget me ever telling them.

"I thought it was the VIP bathroom but it wasn't. It was his trailer. He was actually really nice as well. He offered me a drink and asked me to stay." I said to them both and they looked at each other again.

"Yeah, Closer was dedicated to you. You're gorgeous and he's a smoke show so it makes sense." Jay said to me and I started laughing. There was no way this was our conversation.

"And if he didn't then he's crazy." Brooke said to us both as I finished my glass of wine. I could hear someone playing the piano upstairs. No doubt it was my tío.

"Isn't Hayes crazy into art as well?" Jay asked and I looked at her. So Brea was really trying to start something.

"He is Oliver mentioned it and Brea said about the exhibition." I said to them and that's when Brooke and Jay looked at each other. Two big smiles plastered on their faces.

"Then maybe he'll show up. You never know. That would be exciting." Brooke said to us and I heard someone come down the stairs.

"Y/n, what are you girls doing down here? Your hermana is looking for you." Mom said to us and I looked at her and smiled.

"Throwing our celebration drinks for the exhibit tomorrow. What better place to do it then the bar." I said to her and she shook her head at me.

"Can you come upstairs for your sister. She wants you there and you've just been here. Drinking our expensive wine." Mom said to me and I looked at her. She couldn't be serious.

"You said the wine was for a special occasion and it is. So it's getting drunk." I said to her and she shook her head at me. She knew this was a losing battle. She would never get me on her side.

"But come up. You girls too. She sees you as big sisters as well."  Mom said and she looked at the two girls beside me.

"I guess we can chill for an hour." Jay said and I smiled at them I'm glad I wasn't going up there alone.

"Well, she is like our little sister. So we really should." Brooke said and that's when I saw Mom smiling at that.

"Great. Now come on. Your Tío Hector is playing your sisters favorite songs." She said to us with a smile and when we went up there. She wasn't wrong. He was playing all her favorite songs. I could see Miguel dancing sleepily.

"Miguel, come here." I said to him. I crouched down and he walked into my arms. I then picked him up and he rested his head on my shoulder. I smiled.

"I'm sleepy." He said to me and I knew he would be. It was late. I then saw Brea come over to me.

"I'm glad you came up. I was starting worry you didn't want to come." She said to me and I looked at her and tilted my head to the side.

"I was always going to come. But first I'm going to put Miguel to bed. I'll be back." I said to her and she nodded. I then went up to his room and tucked him in before I went back to join the party. I saw Brea talking with Jay and Brooke.

"There she is. One of the women of the hour." Brea said as I walked towards them and I looked at her confusedly.

"What do you mean?" I asked her and she looked at me with a smile as she started handing me a slice of cake.

"Oh please, this is no longer just my leaving party. This is your exhibition party now." She said to me and I looked at her with a smile before I hugged her. "Don't tell Mom or Papa though." She said to me and I looked at her with a smile.

"I won't don't worry." I said to her and that's when I started eating the cake. This was probably the best thing to happen.

"I kinda wish we could make a toast." Jay said to us and I could see where she was coming from.

"Maybe we should leave that until after we sell some art." Brooke said to us and I was hoping we could sell at least one piece. That would make me happy.

"And I'm sure you will. The three of you are amazing and extremely talented. Someone will buy it." She said to me and I could see a glint in her eyes. "Maybe it'll be Hayes." She said to me and I looked at her and ruffled her hair.

"Don't be silly. As if he'll come to our little exhibit here in Los Feliz." I said to her and and she looked at me. How I would be retracting that statement in the next 24 hours.
