Right From The Start {Book 1}

Let's Celebrate The Good Times

- - - - (LEON'S POV) - - - -

Right now I am at the track practicing for an upcoming race. Andres is suppose to be helping me keeping my times and writing down the statistics, but all he seems to care about is landing a date for tonight.

Forgot to mention, tonight U-Mix is presenting a party for the studio. Our music video has over a million hits. Marotti says that it is the most views U-Mix has seen within the quickest time from uploading.

"Andres! I need you to be helping me. Write down the times per lap and show them to me as I pass the checkered line." [Leon]

"Leon it's important for me to find a girl to take as my plus one to this U-Mix party." [Andres]

"If you are not going to be any help, why don't you just leave?" [Leon]

"Alright I will help you. Then when you are done could you help me find a date for tonight?" [Andres]

"I guess. Now get setup, I have very little time left to practice." [Leon]

Just as I thought I was able to get Andres to work, he has to take a call. He is my best friend and I'm glad he is here, but at times he is not helpful.

"What was that all about?" [Leon]

"Pablo called everyone to let us know that we are going to perform at tonight's party. I have one question, what is a disco party?" [Andres]

"You dress up from either the 70s or 80s. Now can we please get back to work." [Leon]

"No can do my friend, I have to find a date and I only have an hour before I have to get ready." [Andres]

Ughh...Andres! At this rate it is pointless for me to continue for the day. I went to go to the lockers to change, but Lara stopped me at midpoint.

"Leon, you are done practicing already?" [Lara]

"Andres was no help and I have an hour to get ready for tonight's party. Speaking of, shouldn't you be packing up shop?" [Leon]

"I have nothing else to do later tonight." [Lara]

"Are you sure? Did you forget that your my plus one tonight?" [Leon]

"I would love to go with you tonight, but I still have a lot of work here. I can't skip a day or even a half a day. Maybe some other time." [Lara]

"Alright. I am going to miss you." [Leon]

Before I continue my way to the lockers I plant a kiss on Lara's cheek as for my goodbye. Lara has seemed a bit distant from me lately. I know that she doesn't have that much work to do, it was an excuse for her to simply decline my invitation. She has been like that after the day of the shooting the music video. And it's making me worried.

Right now I can't be dealing with that, I have about a half an hour to get ready for the party.

The girls came over this afternoon so we and help each other get ready for tonight's party. I am so excited, the music video went really well and U-Mix wanted to do a little celebration for us. We even get to perform. The guys have decided through text that we will do a short version of Be Better which I thought would be perfect.

Soon enough it was time to go and party. It is incredible; the lights, music loud as if walking into a club, has a juice bar and huge dance floor. There is even a mini stage where we are going to perform. Everything was simply perfect. Immediately the girls and I hit the dance floor, but it wasn't too long until I saw him.
