Chapter 14

Weeks had gone by since Luis left Harmony, everything at home was empty without him. Everyone missed him especially Mel. She was driving everyone crazy.

It was the third time someone had knocked Sheridan's room. Everybody was except Sheridan. She was so tired and didn't want to get up. Ethan decided to wake her up his way. He knocked on the door and heard Sheridan say "Go away, leave me alone"

Ethan chuckled and said "Sheridan, its Luis on the Phone. He wants to talk to you"

As soon as she heard Luis' name she quickly got up, went to the bathroom, and came downstairs. She went to pick up the phone in the living room but there was no one there then she heard everyone laughing in the kitchen. She instantly knew it was their way of waking them up. She went to the kitchen, sat down, and heard Miguel say "Finally someone woke up"

"Shut up" She said as she got her coffee from Pilar.

"Don't forget you have two days left till your game" Antonio reminded her.

"Yeah I think Whitney said she and you are practicing together." Theresa told her.

"Yeah we are, Couch Russell said that I can practice with her instead of Amber. She always acts like a bitch."

"Well before you got practicing you have to go running with us" Antonio said chuckling knowing the response she would get from her.

Sheridan frowned and said "Ughhhh! Not again, not with you. I hate going running with you. You make me run for two hours. For God's sake, I'm a human being Tony
she said making a face. As much as she loved him, he drove her crazy some times.

"Too bad sis, you have to be ready for your game." Said Paloma.

"You guys drive me nuts" she said looking at everyone.

"We're supposed too. Its' our job" said Miguel.

"What do you mean it's your job?" Sheridan asked confused.

"Luis told us to keep you occupied" Ethan said laughing.

"I need to have a talk with him. Btw, did he say when he's coming for my game?" Sheridan asked hoping he would come soon.

"I don't know" Liz answered.

"Well he better be there, without him I will loose"

"Hey, don't you dare talk like that." Said Pilar and Martine.

"Hey Aunty Sherry, I don't drive you crazy right?" Melissa asked

"Of course not, they all do but you make me feel good." Sheridan told her favorite niece and it was true when Sheridan was sad Mel would bring a smile to her face. When she didn't want to talk to anyone, Mel would be the one who would talk to her and make her feel good.

"And Miss Melissa, you're my little couch/manager right?"

"Yep, I'm going to make you win your trophy" She said adoringly

"Ohh right, she's your everything and we're nothing, we just drive you crazy right?" Miguel jokingly made a face.

"Mind your business will ya and leave my favorite niece alone?" Sheridan jokingly replied back to him glaring.

Everyone finished eating breakfast and went to do their own things. Miguel went over to Bennetts. Theresa, Ethan and Paloma went to Book Café, Pilar, Martine went to the restaurant, and Liza, Antonio, Mel and Sheridan went running. Antonio and Liza came home after dropping Sheridan and Mel off at the tennis court where T.C Russell and Whitney were waiting for Sheridan.

"Morning Couch, hey Whit" Sheridan greeted as she picked up the ball to start playing.

"How are you Sheridan?" T.C asked.

"I'm ok Couch, I'm just so tired." Sheridan said hitting to ball to the wall.

"Well are you ready to beat Whitney today?"

"I think so…" Sheridan said as she took her place on the court.

"All you need to do is relax. Don't stress and you'll do just fine."

Sheridan nodded and starting playing with Whit. White was just helping Sheridan practice. Sheridan had done a great job with all the previous games and everyone was sure that She'd win the big final game too for the trophy. They all had faith in her. They knew she could do anything she put her heart in to.
