Chapter 512 The Grammy Awards 2

Jake was enjoying the Grammy a lot, but he couldn't help but be worried about the prize that Kate was competing for, the Grammy continued and Ricky Martin performed with a performance singing "The Cup Of Life", which would make him even more recognized in the world of music.

Afterward, Ricky Martin also won the Best Latin Pop Performance award for "Vuelve", Celine Dion of whom Jake was also a fan won the Record of the Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance awards and sang along with Andrea Bocelli the song "The Prayer".

Lauryn Hill who was the great Grammy star sang the song "To Zion" with Carlos Santana, Lauryn Hill also won Best Female R\u0026B Vocal Performance, Best Rhythm \u0026 Blues Music and Best R\u0026B Album, with the album The Miseducation.

At the end of the Grammy, she would still win the Album of the Year award, being the first hip-hop singer to achieve that, but Jake was more interested in the Best New Artist award, so Kate could compete for that award, Natalie Imbruglia had left the contest for that Jake remembered.

So the contestants for this award were the country music band Dixie Chicks that had won 2 awards that night, the group Backstreet Boys, Andrea Bocelli, Lauryn Hill and Kate, reason why Lily had spoken the Album and Kate's music could compete with others awards that night, but the record company decided to put all its efforts into winning it.

Jake was waiting for that moment and started to get anxious, soon the contestants were introduced, when Kate's name was called, people at the Shrine Auditorium applauded quite like the favorite singers.

"And the Best New Artist is Kate Annesley."

When the presenter of the award spoke Kate's name, Jake couldn't resist and stood up to applaud, with Jake standing up to applaud some other people also stood up to applaud him.

With Jake standing up to applaud first it was natural for Kate to see him, she was really beautiful in a white dress as she liked to wear with some parts of the dress is blue which made her even more beautiful.

Jake didn't want to stand out, but he ended up standing out too much to applaud, as Lauryn Hill would win 4 Grammy awards nobody would complain about if she didn't win the Best New Artist award, Kate was very happy when she received the award and went to give a speech fast.

"I'm really happy to have won this award, I didn't expect it even if I really wanted to win, Lauryn Hill is really an excellent singer and deserves all the awards she won and I hoped she would win this one too."

"I want to thank my fans who have always supported me at all times in my career, I also want to thank my manager Lily, and thank everyone who has supported me until today."

"I wanted to thank my label, the musicians and producers who participated in my music and my albums."

"I wanted to dedicate this award to my parents who cannot be here, thank you."

While giving the thank you speech Kate looked several times at where Jake was, so if someone was watching them see if they were dating after this award they would be pretty sure.

Jake was embarrassed because he was sure Lily would be mad at him, so at the end of the Grammy when Lauryn Hill won the Album of the Year award Jake was the first to get up again to applaud and again several people stood up as he did.

The Grammy ended and Jake was very happy that Kate had won the award, Jake thought he was lucky that he didn't know many people and he was one of the first to leave the Shrine Auditorium, some people would come looking for him to go to one of the parties he had after the Grammy, but Jake was not interested in participating.

After all, besides having to be discreet, Jake had to rest because he had a game the next day, besides, he couldn't drink even then he would have to stay at the whole party refusing the gifts of the other guests.

When Jake got home he changed his clothes and called his mother to tell the good news, Eva was also watching the Grammy on television so she already knew that Kate had won, she also celebrated a lot like Jake and was very happy for Kate have won.

"I hoped she really won, Jake, you know how talented Kate is and she deserved to win this award, I hope she still wins many awards like that in her singing career."

"I expected it too, mom, but the other artists who were competing with Kate were so good that I was worried and anxious, even Kate wasn't sure she could win."

"I understand that I saw how anxious you were as you were the first to get up to applaud when they announced that Kate had won, Hahaha, you were filmed on camera and everyone saw it."

Jake didn't expect him to be filmed, now he was sure that Lily would be irritated with him, Jake didn't care if they found out he was dating Kate, and with Kate winning this award they would have less trouble taking over the relationship that they had.

Jake talked a little more with his mother and then went to watch some movies at the cinema he had at his house, Jake would wait a few hours because he wanted to try to talk to Kate on the phone.

But Jake knew that Kate should have gone to one of the parties as most artists also had to go, she should have to go to her label's party or the party of some more well-known artists.

After a few hours Jake watched 2 movies and called Kate if she couldn't answer he would have to go to sleep because he would have a game the next day, Jake waited awhile and luckily Kate can answer the phone.

"Hi, Jake, I'm glad you called me."

"I didn't know if you were busy after Grammy, so I waited a few hours before I called you, I wanted to congratulate you for winning the Grammy, you deserved it, Kate, for your hard work."

"Thanks, Jake, I was very happy to see you when I won the Grammy, I really wanted to say your name in my speech, but know that I spoke of you indirectly when I made my speech."

"I understand, then, that this will be a motivation for you to win another Grammy in the coming years, so you can say my name in your thank you speech."

"Hahaha, I will try to win another Grammy to say your name, but next time I want you by my side at the awards."

"I will be there, I hope Lily is not too angry with me for what I did at the Grammy, I tried to be discreet, but I couldn't do it when I heard that you won the award."

"She was a little upset, but Lily knows the great effort you had and the understanding you had to not disrupt my career if everyone knows it can be better this way because we won't have to hide it from anyone else."

"I also don't like to hide it, but I understand that it is the best for your career, don't worry, at the beginning of next year Lily said that we can announce that we are dating, it won't be that long."

Jake talked a few more hours with Kate before he had to hang up because he had to sleep, Jake was very happy with everything that had happened that day, so if the Los Angeles Lakers team managed to win the next day he would be very happy.

The next day Jake woke up very early and ate well to prepare for the game he would have later, the game would be in Los Angeles so the other players were also able to return home after Jake asked for a day off to go to the Grammy.

The housekeeper Mary brought Jake back to the newspaper from the previous day's news, Jake searched the newspaper and saw the news about the Grammy that happened the day before, in the newspaper it said "The Night of Divas", it talked about Lauryn Hill, Madonna, Celine Dion and also talked just a little bit about Kate.

Even so Jake was happy that Kate won the award and so maybe she could get even more fans, in the newspapers that Jake read nothing spoke about him, so he was happy that there were not many rumors about him.

After that Grammy, Kate would go back to doing her shows and would be very busy for the rest of the year, Jake would also be busy with the NBA and they could just meet up and talk over the phone.

Jake went to training with the Los Angeles Lakers team, when Jake arrived at the training place he saw that Dennis Rodman had already arrived, he would not play in that game, but would start training with the team because the next day he would play.

Coach Bill Bertka was not annoyed that Jake missed training the day before because he was around when Jake asked the former team coach for permission to have a rest day, Coach Bertka didn't imagine Jake already knew Coach Harris could be fired.

Even if Coach Bertka knew that he still wouldn't care because he knew that Jake was in great physical condition playing the 48 minutes in every game, so missing a day of training wouldn't be a bad thing.

Jake went to where Robert Horry was, Jake could imagine how bad it was to have a health problem and have to stay several games without being able to play, of course, Horry appeared sometimes in training and the players talked to him, but in games as a visitor that the team had they could not talk.

"How are you, Robert? He recovered from his illness."

"Not completely, I'm not in my best shape yet either, but I can go back to playing for a few minutes in that game."

"It's good to hear that, I hope you recover completely soon, the team needs you."
