Chapter 16: Taking Things Too Far

Morning came and when Lavanya came out of her room she saw Kevin on the couch still asleep. She looked at Kevin and smiled softly. She went into the kitchen and decided to boil water to make tea.

"Kevin which do you prefer, coffee or tea?" Lavanya asked smiling. Kevin rubbed his head and smiled gently at her.
"Coffee, baby." He answered then Lavanya began to make coffee for him.

Lavanya looked in her cabinet and pulled out the tea tin can and then she took out a package of instant coffee. When Kevin woke up he saw a mug on the coffee table along with a note. He opened the folded piece of paper and all that was written on the paper was the words "Thank you". Kevin smiled at the note then he took the mug and took a sip out of it.
"Heh... She remembered that I don't like anything in my coffee." He said as he continued to drink his coffee.

"Okay, everyone! Welcome to day four of rehearsal!" Steven announced as everyone gathered around.

"Okay we only have three more days until the play begins. So far, everyone is doing really good on their lines, especially Sour Cream. Let us begin song rehearsal. Lavanya, would you like to start?" Steven asked then Lavanya smiled as she walked to the stage. She then took a deep breath and looked at the crowd.

Que bonitos ojos tienes
Debajo de tus dos cejas,
Debajo de tus dos cejas...
Que bonitos ojos tienes...

Y decirte nina hermosa
Qu'eres linda y hechicera,
Qu'eres linda y hechicera...
Malaguena salerosa~

Yo no te ofrezco riquezas
Te ofrezco mi corazon,
Te ofrezco mi corazon
En cambio de mi pobreza

Y decirte nina hermosa
Qu'eres linda y hechicera,
Qu'eres linda y hechicera...
Malaguena salerosa...

Malaguena salerosa

Everyone applauded and cheered then Lavanya bowed smiling sweetly.

"That was lovely, Lavanya." Steven said as Lavanya came down from the stage.
"Lets now do the singing for Jack and Georges please." Steven said then Sour Cream and Ronaldo walked up to the stage. Lavanya sat down next to Jamie while Steven watched Sour Cream and Ronaldo sing.

"How's your leg?" Lavanya asked then Jamie blushed looking at her.
"O-oh... I-it's still a little sore... But thank you for worrying about me." Jamie said blushing a bit.
"Y-you know... Your singing is really incredible. I had no idea you can speak Spanish."

"Oh, actually I just listened to the song many times and tried my best to sound out the lyrics..." Lavanya admitted, blushing lightly from embarrassment. Suddenly, Jamie felt a shiver going down his spine; glancing behind he saw Kevin sitting behind him and Lavanya glaring at the mailman.

"Come on, Lavanya. Why don't we go get lunch together?" Kevin asked as he casually wrapped his arms around Lavanya's shoulders. The blonde hair girl looked at her ex-boyfriend then pinched his hand.
"I'd rather starve then go eat together with you." She said bluntly then Kevin pulled away and rubbed his hand.
"This is the kind of treatment I get for saving your life? Maybe I should've just left you to drown." Kevin said then everyone in the theater heard a loud slap. They all turned and were shocked to see Lavanya on her feet and Kevin's cheek slightly red from when Lavanya slapped him across the face. With tears in her eyes, Lavanya grabbed her things and left the theater in a rush.

"Lavanya!" Sour Cream called as he rushed out to find her. Everyone looked at Kevin with disgust and upsetting looks as the teen covered his cheek.

"When will you learn that some things that come out of your mouth hurt others?" Jamie asked in a low voice as he glared at Kevin.
