21. chapter 21

Last time

Mirabel said with a smile and Dolores nodded even if she could hear Mirabel's heart and how it was beating fast over Dolores's actions*

Mirabel"being grabbed like that. that was like one of those novels Luisa loves to read"

Mirabel thought with a bit of a blush as she walked ahead of Dolores a little bit embarrassed that her body is reacting this way*

Now

Mirabel and Dolores version of that day

Mirabel and Dolores made it to the bar, Dolores was frowning still not liking the fact that her little cousin. And as much as she's still against the idea, her future wife singing in a bar, filled with drunk men*

Dolores:Mirabel, I really think you shouldn't do this

Mirabel: your complaints have been registered and accounted for Lolo. But I have to do this

Dolores:why? Why do you have to do this

Mirabel:because if I don't. She'll call Mariano and I'll be damned if I let that hack outshine me!!

Mirabel said with a angry huff. Dolores eye started to twitch looking at the real theater kid of the family*

Dolores"Camilo, Bruno, you've got nothing on mirabel's"

Mirabel:oh I forgot here

Mirabel took a pair of earmuffs from her satchel and gave it to Dolores. Dolores looked at it and then looked at how exited Mirabel looked. She forced a smile and placed it on*

Dolores:thanks I really...

Dolores flinched and looked shocked, her eyes becoming as small as pin needles. The sounds, they were gone, she couldn't hear alma screaming at a man for just wanting to cure her hangover, she couldn't hear Isabela screaming since she fell on donkey poop, she couldn't hear anything but the world around her. She felt Mirabel grab her shoulder and she looked at her*

Mirabel:how are they?

Dolores flinched again and looked at a smiling Mirabel, Dolores mouth opened and closed but no words came out for a bit*

Dolores:m...my super hearing...h.. how...

Mirabel:well, one night I couldn't think so I just kept looking at the ceiling in you're room then I got an idea, if the candle gave you the power, what if I took a bit of the candle to block your powers. So I went to abuela's room and cut 2 tiny pieces from the candle on the bottom, after that a made the earmuff with the candle wax inside of them. So did it wor...uff!!

Mirabel said as Dolores crashed in to her hugging her tightly crying a little*

Dolores:I...I..I can hear normally. T..thank you Mirabel, thank you so much!

Mirabel grew a soft smile as she hugged Dolores back, they stayed like that for a long while until Dolores felt better and let go*

Mirabel:ok, let's go inside my public must be dying to see me

Mirabel said with a big smile walking inside. The two woman made it to the bar and Mirabel waved at Jeanette*

Mirabel/Mariano:hey Jeanette, I'm ready to sing

Both Mirabel and Mariano said at the same time. They froze smiling and then looked at each other*

Mariano:Mirabel

Mirabel:Mariano... what to you think your doing?

Mariano: Jeanette asked me to sing today

Mirabel:she asked ME to sing today

Both looked at the older woman looking at her schedule desperately*

Jeanette;oh dear, I'm so sorry I asked both of you on the same day by mistake

Mirabel;oh then I'm sure Mariano can come back later. After all I'm the main entertainment

Mariano:ha! Please, the people prefer my deep soothing voice from your underdeveloped voice any day of the week

Mirabel:what you say you stupid giant?!

Mariano;you heard me you dwarf!!

Mirabel and Mariano started to bicker with each other, both ignoring Dolores at the back who was surprised never seeing this side of Mariano*

Jeanette:hm. Well here's an idea how about a little competition! Winner gets to sing for the rest of the month

Mirabel/Mariano:deal!

Jeanette; fabulous! Give me 20 minutes to set everything up

Jeanette left for the back while Mirabel and Mariano glared at each other smiling, determination behind both there eyes*

20 minutes later

Jeanette:ladies and gentlemen! Today we have a bit of a treat! A musical entertainment battle!

The crowd started getting excited while Dolores was off on the bar having a glass of wine*

Jeanette:you all will decide which one of these two will be your musical entertainment for the rest of the month! Will it be Mariano Guzmán? Or will it be Mirabel madrigal?!

Jeanette walked out to stand next to Dolores, Mariano and Mirabel walked out both dressed to the nines. It made Dolores almost spit wine out of her nose the light shined on top of Mirabel and her mic*

Mirabel:Anything you can do,

I can do better

Mariano:ha!

another light shined on top of Mariano as the band started playing*

Mirabel:I can do anything

Better than you.

Mariano:No, you can't.

Mirabel:Yes, I can.

Mariano:No, you can't.

Mirabel:Yes, I can.

Mariano:No, you can't.

Mirabel:Yes, I can, Yes, I can!

Mariano leaned his arm on mirabel's shoulder looking at his nails*

Mariano:Anything you can be

I can be greater. Sooner or later, I'm greater than you.

Mirabel pushed Mariano from her and jabbed her finger on his chest*

Mirabel:No, you're not.

Mariano:Yes, I am.

Mirabel:No, you're not.

Mariano:Yes, I am.

Mirabel:No, you're NOT!.

Mariano:Yes, I am.Yes, I am!

Mariano turned around and made a finger gun shooting it at Dolores making her blush*

Mariano:I can shoot a partridge

With a single cartridge.

Mirabel did an air bow an arrow and shot it at the crowd giving them all an adorable wink*

Mirabel:I can get a sparrow

With a bow and arrow.

Mariano:I can live on bread and cheese.

Mirabel:And only on that?

Mirabel said sounding and looking shocked. Mariano smirked and puffed his chest*

Mariano:Yes.

Mirabel:So can a rat!

Mirabel said with a smirk making Mariano back to arch down*

Mariano:Any note you can reach

I can go higher.

Mirabel:I can sing anything

Higher than you.

Mariano:No, you can't.

Mirabel:Yes, I can.

Mariani:No, you can't.

Mirabel:Yes, I can.

Mariano:No, you can't.

Mirabel:Yes, I can.

Mariano: No, you can't.

Mirabel:Yes, I CAN.

Mirabel pitched got so high a wine glass shattered, Taking everyone by surprise*

Mariano:how do you sing that high?

Mirabel: I'm a girl!

Mariano eyes went wide in surprise and Mirabel kicked him in the chin for acting as if Mirabel's a boy. Mariano chuckled and kept singing*

Mariano:Anything you can say I can say softer.

Mirabel:I can say anything Softer than you.

Mariano:No, you can't.

Mirabel:Yes, I can.

Mariano:No, you can't.

Mirabel:Yes, I can.

Mariano: No, you can't.

Mirabel:Yes, I can. YES, I CAN!

Mariano grinned as he won that won, he walked down and grabbed a bottle of booze before going back up*

Mariano:I can drink my liquor

Faster than a flicker.

Mariano took a shot of booze and passed it to Mirabel. Mirabel was about to drink it but the glares Jeanette and Dolores were giving her made Mirabel flinch and give the bottle back to Mariano*

Mirabel:I can drink it quicker And get even sicker!

Mariano:I can open any safe.

Mirabel:Without bein' caught?

Mariano:Sure.

Mirabel:That's what I thought you crook!

Mirabel grinned at Mariano who chuckled *

Mariano:Any note you can hold I can hold longer.

Mirabel:I can hold any note Longer than you.

Mariano:No, you can't.

Mirabel:Yes, I can

Mariano:No, you can't.

Mirabel:Yes, I can

Mariano: No, you caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Mirabel:Yes, I can

Mariano:n't

Mirabel:Yes, I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-

Dolores, Mariano, Jeanette were surpsied looking at Mirabel hold the note, until her face became blue*

Mirabel;can!

Mirabel coughed and breathed heavily. Mariano got on one knee and pointed at Mirabel with both hands*

Mariano:YES YOU CAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!

Mariano got up and patted Mirabel on the back*

Mariano:where you keep all that air?

Mirabel:phew

Marino and Mirabel started tapping there feets and Dolores eyes widen*

Dolores"where the hell did they get tap shoes?!"

Mariano:I can jump a hurdle.

Mirabel:I can wear a girdle.I can knit a sweater.

Mariano:I can fill it better!

Mariano said flexing his muscles much to the enjoyment of the ladies and few of the men there. Mirabel not being one of them just rolled her eyes*

Mariano:I can do most anything!

Mirabel:Can you bake a pie?

Mariano: No.

Mirabel:Neither can I.

Mirabel and Mariano both grinned at there awful baking skills*

Mariano:Anything you can sing I can sing sweeter

Mirabel:I can sing anything Sweeter than you.

Mariano:No, you can't.

Mariano got a few whistling from the woman in the bar making him a bit shy*

Mirabel:Yes, I can.

Mariano: No, you can't.

Mariano and Mirabel walked closer to the other*

Mirabel:Yes, I can.

Mariano: No, you can't.

Mariano grabbed Mirabel by her waist and mirabel grabbed Mariano by his neck. Dolores looked scandalized*

Mirabel:Yes, I can.

Mariano:No, you can't

Mirabel Oh yes I can

Mariano started to squeeze Mirabel's waist as Mirabel started to choke Mariano's neck both grinning almost a step away from punching each other*

Mariano:No, you can't, can't, can't

Mirabel:Yes, I can, can, can!

They let go of each other but held hands as they both looked at the crowd and gave there big finished*

Mirabel/Mariano:Yes/no, I/you can/can't!!!

they bowed as the crowed cheered for them. Jeanette walked up to the stage and took one of the mics*

Jeanette:alright! Now that you heard them, please grab a piece of paper and pencil and make you're choice. Mirabel or Mariano?!

Mariano and Mirabel looked at each other grinning*

Mariano:may the best theater kid win

Mirabel:oh I plan to...~

Scene change

Dolores:here your strawberry scoop

Mirabel grabbed her ice cream with a depressed aura around her. We see her and Dolores sitting in a bench, Dolores was trying to cheer Mirabel up after having lost to Mariano. She sat down next to Mirabel*

Dolores:you sang amazingly Mirabel. You have nothing to be ashamed off

Mirabel: thanks Lolo

Mirabel took a few licks of her ice cream, the coldess helping her tired throat*

Mirabel:still can't believe I lost, that ass Is never gonna let me forget!

Dolores:still I'm sure it was very close

Mirabel:yeah, Jeanette showed us the results. he won by 1 vote

Dolores:o...oh really one Vote huh?

Dolores started laughing nervously. Mirabel squinted and looked at Dolores*

Mirabel:yeah 1 vote...Dolores who did you vote for?

Dolores flinched so hard her Ice cream fell on the floor.she got up and looked at mirabel's cold look with a nervous smile*

Dolores:w..what?

Mirabel:who did you vote for? Is a simple question isn't it?

Dolores:y..you know you're not supposed to ask people who they voted for

Mirabel got up and Dolores started backing up looking more and more nervous*

Dolores:that's why we folded our votes and out it on the jar. Y...you know like our forefathers did

Mirabel:how could you do that...

Mirabel said sounding legitimately hurt, she glared angrily at Dolores who squeaked like a mouse*

Dolores:l..look I just looked at the two of you and thought who had the better voice a...a...and who would fit better in that establishment!

Mirabel;shut up! I'm your family ! I don't care if my voice sounds like a dying cat, you have to vote for me! You voted on Mariano because you have a crush on him not because he was better then me! I made you those earmuffs, I risked getting caught by abuela and harming the miracle to help you and you voted against me?!!

Dolores gulped and tried to say something but no words got out. She felt horrible since tears of frustration started to come out of Mirabel's face*

Dolores:m.. Mirabel I'm...!

Mirabel took the earmuffs back and left running crying. Dolores felt even worse and tried to run to her but getting her super hearing back gave her a huge headache making her stop on her track and hold her head in pain*

Alma:hay gracias. Dolores tell the family we're eating at the Irizarry household today!

Dolores heard. She groaned as she looked at mirabel's disappearing figure and went to look for the rest*

Dolores"I'll get to her last, give her time to cool off. And to give me time to think of an apology before Luisa kills me"
