Chapter 1:Birthday Surprise
Disclaimer: I don't own btr
"HAPPY EIGHTEEN BIRTHDAY CARLOS!" I heard my mom yell out as she opened the door to my room.
"Ugh mom what time is it?" I replied as I tried to get out from under the covers.
"Its already twelve in the afternoon," she started as she turned on the light , "now get up so you can eat the birthday waffles I made you."
"Yum. I love your birthday waffles mom."
"I know sweetie now get dressed so you can come down okay."
"Okay." she gave me a warm smile and kissed me on my cheek before she left and closed the door behind her.
I can't believe that I'm finally eighteen and about to start my senior year of high school. I got up and went inside my walk in closet and choose my outfit for the day which consisted of a plain black t-shirt and some skinny jeans with my black and white high top converse. Once I made myself look presentable I headed down the stairs to finally eat the birthday waffles the were waiting for me.
When I got to the kitchen I kissed my mom on the cheek before I sat down in font of a plate of waffles topped with wiped cream and a strawberry. My mouth watered at the delicious sight in front of me.
"Carlos, sweetie, your drooling." my mom chuckled
"Sorry it's just that they look so good. Can you please pass me the syrup."
"Here you go honey."
I drowned my waffles in syrup which would end up being a bad idea having all that sugar running inside my body. I took the first bite of the waffle and they were just amazing. We only had them twice a year. Once in my birthday and the other on my moms so I ate them as slowly as possible savoring the taste.
"So since I have the day off and your friend Dustin is out of town I was thinking me and you can go to the carnival and spend the day there. What do you think mijo?" mom asked.
"Sounds like fun" I answered excitedly.
After I finished eating my amazing breakfast and my mom got ready, we both headed to the carnival in town. When I got there I was bouncing excitedly in my seat like a little boy about to get a bag of candy. I guess it's all the sugar I ate before we came here. Today was going to be awesome just me and my mom. Its been a while since we both spent a day together so I had to make this day last.
"Come on mom lets get on the Ferris wheel first." I said as I dragged her toward the line.
The sun was setting and it was finally time to go home. The ride back home was full of my mindless chatter about all the rides we got on. We got on every single ride at least twice. Then we played carnival games where I won a bear for my mom. This day was just amazing.
"This was the best birthday ever! Thanks mom for everything." I said as I pulled my mom into a big bear hug.
"You don't have to thank me mijo I did it because I love you now what would you like for dinner?"
"Do we still have nopales from yesterday?"
"Yes would you like me to reheat it up for you?"
"Yes please I love your nopales."
It only took up ten minutes to get the food ready. I went to sit on the table right across from my mom.
"Carlos I need to tell you something." my mom said hesitantly
"What is it mom?"
"Well your father and I have been talking-"
"WHAT! You still talk to that asshole after everything that happened!"
"Carlos! Just listen to me first," she started, " as I was saying your father and I were talking and your going to be staying with him your senior year. You're already enrolled in the school by his house and everything-"
"WHAT! Mom how can you do this to me? You know how much I hate that man! And don't I get a say in this? How come I'm only finding this out now! Huh mom why!"
"Look I know your still mad at him for cheating on me but that was two years ago. Our marriage was falling apart and we were bound to get divorced anyway. Now Carlos I just want you and your father to started talking again its been two years honey I think its time you forgive him."
My whole body was shaking with rage I want to tell her so bad that my so called father cheated on her with my ex-girlfriend and I know he did it on purpose to. I loath that man that made my mother cry. She locked herself in her room for two weeks and would only come out to eat and to go the bathroom. Those were the two worst weeks of my life and it was all because of that horrible man. I remember hearing my mom cry herself to sleep at night and I hated it, so much. I don't understand how she could just forgive him but she was a woman that didn't hold grudges against anyone.
"Mom, please don't let me go I'm begging you." I said as I got on my knees.
"Sweetie please just give him a second chance. Its been two years."
"He made you cry mom. I hated seeing you lock yourself up in the room. I hated hearing you cry yourself to sleep at night asking yourself why you weren't good enough. My heart broke every time that happen. And I was so mad at him because he was the one who did that you mom. Please let me stay here with you I promise I will talk to him on the phone if it means I get to stay here with you and protect you." I hugged her as she put her head on top of mine.
"Oh my baby. I didn't know you felt like this," she said as she held me close, "Look Carlos I'm going on a business trip to Europe as I was trying to say before , but you would never let me finish" she chuckled at that, " and I didn't want you to stay here by yourself. Your father and I are in good terms now and I believe its time both of talk to each other and now that I'm going to be gone will be the perfect chance."
"Can't I just go to Europe with you instead?"
"Sorry sweetie but I want you to finish school first. Please Carlos do it for me."
"Fine I'll go live with that man but that doesn't mean I'm going to like it." I can't believe I just gave in, but I wanted to make my mom happy and if talking and living with my father made her happy then that's what I'm going to have to do.
"Thank you sweetie."
"Yeah whatever. When is he going to pick me up?"
"On Monday. I love you sweetie. You know that right?"
"Yeah yeah I love you too mom."
With that being said I got off from the floor and made my way toward my room. I can't believe that starting Monday I was going to have to start living with that man but I guess I'll just have to make the best of it.
There was the first chapter to radio :D I was craving waffles so that's where the beginning came from:p I hope you like this and tell me what you think by leaving a review you get hugs if you do.
