Ch5: Decorating a tree at the Knights.
"Hey Jazz?" Lola asked slowly eating her popcorn.
"Hmm?" Jasmine replied without looking up from the magazine she was reading.
All girls were at the knight's house waiting for the Carlos and James to bring in the Christmas tree. Kendall and Logan were left out cause James and Carlos had made up some kind of weird bet.
"What did your mom mean when she was lecturing you about not wearing your scarf today?" Lola asked.
"That I should wear my scarf." Jasmine replied turning the page and continuing to read.
Lola rolled her eyes. "Yeah I got that part but why was she making such a big deal about it everyone forgets there scarf sometimes right?"
"Oh that." Jasmine said slowly putting the magazine away. "Well my family is known for having weak longs." She replied casually. "My aunt had it real bad and James has asthma."
Lola blinked. "Asthma?"
"Yeah your the smart one remember? That's when you have weak longs and easily gets breathing problems it runs through the family and that's why we sing."
Lola sighed. "I know what asthma is Jazz I just meant that I didn't know James has asthma and yes I know singing is good for your longs so please don't go holding a speech about it."
Jasmine chuckled slightly at that. "Fine."
"Aren't you worried that he'll have an attack during hockey or all the sports he does?" Lola asked adjusting the hold on her glasses.
Jasmine shook her head. "He hasn't had an attack in years."
"Besides." Katie added. "Kendall always secretly brings an extra inhaler just in case."
"Psh I do not!" Kendall denied.
Katie ignored her older brother's protest. "He always has it with him since he was seven." Katie grinned as she told her friends about one of the few things the other BTR members didn't know about him. "It's kind of sweet actually. He always worries over his friends." Katie said grinning.
"You would worry to if you watched one of your best friends nearly choke to death!" Kendall defended. "We were just playing hockey one day and suddenly he collapsed to his knees not being able to breath normally. He had forgotten his inhaler that day and he had to be hospitalized." Kendall shuddered. "Men that was a real scary day."
Logan patted his shoulder. "It's okay dude I'll tell you something... Me and Carlos have an extra inhaler after that day too."
"Katie hit sensitive spot?" Carmen asked.
"Yeah she did." Jasmine nodded. "Though I think it's really sweet of them." She then grinned at Carmen. "And it's good to see that your English is getting better Carmenlita."
Carmen let out a little laugh. "I have good teacher."
"Yeah but we got to work on it a little bit." Jasmine chuckled. "But you have to admit we made record time."
Just then Carlos rushed in wearing a fake white beard and a Christmas hat. "Feliz navidad young ladies!" He yelled then turned to Kendall and Logan. "Oh and to you to guys."
"Carlos don't you think this would go faster if you like.. help me and bring this three in!" James yelled at him.
"And are you sure that big tree is supposed to go inside right?" Jasmine blinked still not getting this Christmas tradition.
"The tree at the Garcia's is bigger remember?" Katie reminded her.
"I still can't believe you never celebrated Christmas or at least Hanukah." Carlos said in a whiny. "I mean I know James's is Jewish but... come on you have to at least celebrate something!"
Jasmine shook her head. "No not really anyway my mom and I were mostly on the road but we sort of celebrated Hanukah in a way I guess." Jasmine shrugged.
"Well you can enjoy our 'help mrs. Knight , Kendall and Katie decorate their Christmas tree tradition'." James as he and Logan carefully put the tree down.
Jasmine nodded excitedly. "And exactly how does that work?"
"Well first we try to untangle the lights which never goes right." Logan said going through the lights looking slightly annoyed.
"James and Carlos make a fool out of them self playing with the garlands." Kendall said watching James and Carlos throwing the garlands at each other like lasso's. Kendall crossed his arms grinning. "Right on schedule."
"Then we're all aloud to decorate the tree the way we want." Katie said as she started to dig through the boxes.
Carlos grinned. "And the greatest thing is..."
Mrs. Knight walked in holding a tray of fresh baked cookies.
"Christmas cookies!" All four band members cried running over to her.
