Chapter 4~Talk Shows!

Selena was rummaging through her suitcase to find her gold studded western hat. She finds her egg shaped ring that Yolanda once gifted her.

When really it had been from her fans not from that liar. She tosses the egg shaped ring into the bottom of her suitcase. Not giving that awful ring another thought. She had not worn the ring since the day she had been shot.

She finds her hat over besides Chris outfit that was hanging up. She walks over and gets her hat. She then gets her cowboy boots on as well. A pair of leather black ones.

She applies another coat of red lips stick. Mac brand. Her all time favorite. She tosses the lipstick back into her Caboodle. Now she was ready. Physically she was ready. Mentally she was not as ready as she thought. She had even gone over what she wanted to say on a pad of notebook paper.

"Selena you wanted to see me?" Suzette questions suddenly as she knocks on the hotel door. Selena allows her to come in.

"I have an outfit I made. AB won't wear his. But you will support me right? And my clothing business? Wear my outfit on the show? I designed it for your body type" says Selena.

She hands Suzette an outfit. It was somewhat like her own.

"Really Selena? You created a outfit for me? Let me see it" gushes Suzette joyfully.

She takes it from Selena. Then opens it on the bed.

"Selena wow, you really outdid yourself. But should I save this for the Grammy awards?" she jokes.

"No wear it tonight. I am sure it will bring business to my store back home" answers Selena.

"Good thinking. Like dad" laughs Suzette.

"I do think business. It is dad's fault" laughs Selena.

"I will go get dressed be right back" Suzette says to her before leaving the room with the outfit.

Selena smiles. She could hardly wait to see Chris in what she made for him.

"Selena I am not sure this is me" Chris argues from behind the bathroom door.

"Please Chris wear it on the show. Do not be like AB" groans Selena.

"I do not know about this Sel" Chris mutters. "It is really flashy"

"Please?" she whines. "Please please please?" she begs.

"Do not whine Sel" he laughs.

"Come on Chris let me see it" she wants to know. She had to see her creation on the love of her life.

"This might be better fitted for someone else to wear. IT is that flashy" he laughs.

"Who else? I made it for you" she groans.

"Michael Jackson. I dunno?'" he chuckles.

"Come on out of there" she demands. She swings the door open. There was Chris looking handsome in her outfit she made him.

The rocker did not look comfortable or pleased with her creation. It made her feel badly inside. She wanted him to wear it. But she did not want him to look uncomfortable on the show.

♥☆♥

"Go ahead. Change!" she gives him. She lets him go get his clothing.

"Thank you! I owe you one" he gratefully declares. He rushes over and gets a new outfit out.

"You, are as bad as AB" she states.

"I love it, Selena. I do. I support you all the way. But that was not made for me. Were you thinking of someone else when you made it?" he asks as he gets dressed.

She was listing to Michael's new album that came out.

"No" Selena lies.

A blush comes to her cheeks. Did she make that for Michael in mind because his music was playing on her radio? She used to have a mad crush on the man when she was younger. He was her first crush ever. Chris gives her the outfit back.

"This feels like me" he says with a grin. "I can breathe" he laughs.

"I am sorry you do not like it" she pouts.

"Selena do not do that" he begs. "please you will make me feel bad"

"Good!" she snaps.

She sets the outfit on the bed. She glances over at it. It was gold. It was pretty flashy. Maybe she was making it for Michael. And not Chris. Not meaning to though.

Chris pulls her into his arms for a hug.

"I do love your work" he tries to tell her.

"Sure you do" she mutters.

He kisses her lips. "I do" he promises her.

There is a knock on the door.

"Selena we have to get going" her mother demands.

Selena walks over and lets her family in. Her parents were wearing the outfits she gave them to wear. All but AB and Chris. They were not team players. Suzette comes over to them looking pleased.

"So what do you think?" she asks them.

"I love it" Selena praises her.

"I love that on you so cute Suze" her mother gushes with joy.

They head on their way to the show. Butterflies flutter in the pit of her stomach. She was going to be on live tv. The last time she had been was on the Veronica Show.

That was a Mexican talk show. This was different. This was as good as being on the cover of a People Magazine cover. She could do this. If Yolanda could lie on 20/20 she could go on here with the truth. Her fans needed to know what happened.

"Selena?" someone says behind her as she waits to go sit on the stage.

She whirls around to see Oprah Winfrey standing in front of her.

They shake hands.

♥☆♥

"I am so pleased to be here" she tells her.

"I am happy to be the first to have your story" she tells her. "I can't wait to hear it"

"The fans need the truth. They will get it from me" Selena promises her.

Soon they all head to sit down. On set. Selena sits beside Suzette. Chris sits beside AB. Her parents were seated together. They looked very nervous as well.

The music soon plays. Cameras were all around them.

"Welcome, to Oprah! Today we have a wonderful singer you all know from Texas. She is known as the tex mex queen. Give a warm welcome for Selena Quintanilla" announces Oprah.

They all clap for her. All Selena could do was focus on the camera that was pointing to her.

So many were watching her. Millions were watching. Who knew who was watching on the tvs back home. Her heart races in her eardrums.

She feels Chris take her hand into his.

"You okay Sel?" he whispers to her.

She nods. "I am fine" she promises.

They watch on the screen what was taped before. Of her dad telling how he discovered that money was being stolen as well as how Yolanda hid things from them for years.

Then Selena was speaking.

"I know some fans are thinking that I stole from them. That I did not deliver what was promised to them. To the photos. To autographs. I am here to right wrongs today. Share my story. I never would not give my fans something back to them. Because without my fans, I truly am nothing without them" Selena speaks on the stage.

Everyone was silent. Truth time. It was all going to be out in the open now. There was no going back now!
