Kiara's Point Of View: Walking down the steps of the plane me and everyone went to go inside the luxurious van dad bought for the tournament.

With Dad, Uncle James, Aunt Kacy, and Mom in the front seats driving and talking in the front. The rest of us are all talking in the back.

Half an hour later. Winter brings a suggestion."Let's have a playlist contest. Whoever has the best playlist wins and gets to ride the car they suggest from anyone in this group to school. Jamal doesn't try to use this on our parents. We all know they won't let us use theirs even if we begged for our lives."

Jamal rolls his eyes. "That was only 5 times ok to get over it."

"5 time do you hear yourself sir?" Coco leaned back incredibly.

"Shut up Coco!" He embarrassedly yelled at her.

She held her hands up in protest. "Alright alright Mr. 5 times... 5 times but don't get no dime..."

"Coco...

"I'll stop!"

Lake speaks up. "Fine you girls are one boy against girls who is going to go. There can only be 3 boys and 3 girls."

The twins sit out Joy shrugs. "I don't feel like it."

Winter raises her hand. "I'll show mines."

Rain raises her hand. "I'll do one."

Silias and Brian raise their hands. "We'll do it. We like listening to Shawn Mendes and Ed Sheeran."

Coco sits next to the twins, "I don't feel like showing my playlist so y'all can go on." She says shooing her hand.

Jamal calls out. "I'll show one."

Lake breathes out a relieved sigh. "I don't think y'all was ready for this anyway."

"There's nothing to get ready for-

"Rain..." Lake looked at his mate lovingly. "Please don't embarrass me. I was feeling myself right now."

She rolled her eyes. "Whatever boosts you confidence mate."

Sunflower backs up. "I don't wanna be showing either. I'll judge tho."

Everyone then shifts their gazes to me and Amera.

I look at Amera who still has her head buried in her phone and back out.

"I don't wanna show you guys probably go on without me."

Rain looks at me confused. "You should really show this time Kiara. Every time we ask you to shut us down. Don't think we don't hear you singing those songs when we are sleeping."

I stopped singing when my parents died. I thought they were the only ones who deserved to hear my voice. But I still sing to the girls... they still get nightmares. And besides it's been so long since I sang in front of people. I don't wanna sound horrible and I'm still kinda scared.

I shake my head. "Ya I don't feel like it but I promise the next time you guys ask I'll do it. But not today, I will record this so our parents can judge." Taking out my phone I get ready to record.

Amera looks up hearing our conversation. Rolling her eyes she agrees. "Fine I'll show." She looked through her phone and showed her top songs.

• Love and War Tamar - Braxton
• Unbreak My Heart - Toni Braxton
• Dangerously In Love - Beyonce
• Rain - SWV

Coco stared at her for a minute. "Isn't most these songs so heartbreaking?"

Amera shrugged. "It's more easier to listen to these types of songs when you have no attachment to the meaning beind them."

Coco shrugged. "Yea you right."

Next is Jamal who bring his top 4 out.

• Say you won't let go - James Arthur
• Forever - Lewis Capadi
• Youngblood - 5 Seconds of Summer
• all the kids are depressed - Jeremy Zucker

"I'm debating between labeling these depressing or just simply pop heartbreaking." Sunflower said quietly.

Jamal rolled his eyes at her. "Music is music."

"I know." She then took his phone and hers with a smile. "That's why I'm adding them on my playlist." As annoyed as Jamal was I think he was happy his mate was fine with his music taste. You can tell by the small smile spreading on his cheeks.

Winter shows hers.

• Growing Pains - Alessia Cara.
• Send My Love (To Your New Lover) - Adele
• Normal Girl -Sza (clean she doesn't like alot of swearing)
• Lay Me Down - Sam Smith

"I respect the second and third songs on that playlist right now. Big vote from me." Amera claps loudly. "You've done me proud."

"I'll freeze your toe if you don't sit down."

Let's just say I think Amera must really love her toe.

Silias is next who thrusted his phone out excitedly..

• Dive - Ed Sheeran
• Photograph -Ed Sheeran
• Ordinary People -John Legend
• U Move, I Move - John Legend & Jhene Aiko

"I actually like every song on this playlist..." Coco pointed to his playlist. "These songs are so random I play them all the time."

• Everything I Wanted -Billie Ellish
• Water Under the Bridge -Adele
• Posion - Beyonce
• The Kids are Alright - Chole & Halle

"I object!" I pointed to her playlist. "I'm baffled who I should give my vote too. This playlist good."

Rain squinted her eyes at me. "Did you just say baffled."

"Yes."

...

The last one is Brian who just placed his phone on the table..

"There."

• Mercy - Shawn Mendes
• When you're gone - Shawn Mendez
• Locked Out of Heaven - Bruno Mars
• Talking to the Moon -Bruno Mara

"The last two songs." Rain held her head annoyed. "Why did you add them?!"

Winter looked at her confused. "Those songs aren't bad-

"EXACTLY! I don't want to give him my vote."

"Why?"

"Because I don't like you."

"Aaaannnddd done!" I smile finishing the video. My hand hurts so much from holding the phone. Never thought I'd get tired from holding a phone.

I pass the phone to Lake. "Here's the phone Lake send it to the adults so they can judge.Tell us what they think."

Lake walks to the front seats and comes back 13 minutes later. Mom and Uncle James gave their points to the girls while Dad and Aunt Kacy gave their points to the boys. So they played some rock-paper-scissors to see who one and the winner is................ SILIAS,JAMAL, and BRIAN!!"

Jamal fist bumps. "SORRY GIRLS!" He playfully tugged Winter's and Lovely's hair. "YA SNOOZE YA LOOSE."

Joy and Amera rolls their eyes. "Next time when Kiara plays she'll woop all y'all!"

Brian smirks. "Ya ya we'll see."

Aunt Kacy walked towards us. "Guys, we are getting off the bus now. Grab your things so we can go to the mansion. School is tomorrow on Monday be prepared."

Lovely groans, "Ughhh I'm so not ready for school!"

Sunflower looks at Lovely confused. "You and your sister will be in the 9th grade. That's HIGHSCHOOL. YOUR SKIPPING 3 GRADE LEVELS and YOUR COMPLAINING?!"

Joy huffs in her seat. "You can't blame us. How would we have known that being so smart will have made us skip 3 grades. We are supposed to be in the 6th grade. But instead we are in high school."

Amera whined. "You girls are lucky I'm supposed to be in the 8th grade... I'm in the 11th GRADE."

Coco rolls her eyes. "You girls chill. At least you'll be able to experience high school things early. You girls already know how to drive so this shouldn't be a problem."

The adults taught the girls to drive. They also taught them more things and stuff. They have learned a lot from our parents.

Dad yells from the front seats. "Kids come to the front and let's go!"

We grab our stuff and get off the van.

Silias yawns. "I'm hungry and sleepy." He smiled brightly. " Let's eat."
