*Time skip. Chapter 7 happens on Sunday. Chapter 8 happens on the following Friday.*
Leo and Gabriel are now getting their tickets checked to enter the private event. There's only thirty minutes until the event starts. They enter through the top entrance that's next to the highest seats.
Thirty minutes pass and the seats are all filled. There must be around a hundred and fifty seats in the auditorium. There's nobody on stage still.
"They're late." Gabriel tells Leo.
"Yeah. The event looks sold out too." Leo responds.
In the front row, there was a VIP section of about fifteen seats. Of course it was only white guys in the front because nobody else was going to pay $50 for this event.
Twenty minutes pass and there's still nobody appearing.
"Oh I know them!" Gabriel says as he points to the bottom entrance which is connected to outside the building. Gabriel knows Miguel and Dani. They're pulling in a cart full of nacho chips and cheese and jalapenos.
"The president of one of the frats is also there." Leo points out.
"Which frat?" Gabriel asks.
"Beta Beta Gamma, I think. That's Pedro Ruiz."
"Oh yeah, him. He wrote about the white nationalist's trying to infiltrate the college."
"I didn't read about that. Wow. They really brought in Mexican representation for this event."
"What do you mean?"
"Those two other guys that just entered are the presidents of two other Mexican fraternities."
"I don't know why they made them wear those tight pants though. They're really stretching out those pants with their asses."
It was true. The pants that the five latinos were wearing were tight and were outlining those asses more than should be appropriate. Their black dress pants seem perfectly tailored to be as tight as possible without ripping. The waiters were also wearing a white dress shirt with a tight black vest over it. The servers went around asking how people wanted their nachos and it took a while until they reached Gabriel's row.
"I thought you weren't going to come?" Gabriel asks Dani.
"It was free for me. How would you like your nachos?" Dani asked.
"Just with cheese and no jalapenos."
"How about you?" Dani asked Leo.
"With cheese and jalapenos." Leo responded.
Dani goes back to the cart and brings the nachos as asked.
"It's finally starting." Gabriel said in relief.
Someone runs up the stage and begins to speak on the microphone.
"We are so sorry. We haven't been able to contact the President of the Proud Mexican Heritage Association. The Vice-President will be here shortly." The guy then runs backstage.
"Come on. I paid twenty bucks for this." Cries Gabriel.
"Yeah. What can you do though?" Leo tries to remain relaxed.
Five minutes pass and everybody has eaten their nachos. Finally, the Vice-President of the PMHA walks on stage and speaks on the microphone. He's 21yo 5'8" and slim.
"We're sorry. We couldn't contact the president. I didn't prepare well but I will try my best. My name is Julio Carranza and I am the Vice-President of the Proud Mexican Heritage Association." Julio makes his introduction.
The representative for White Colleges Matter also walks on stage and stands in front of the other microphone. He's a 20yo 5'8" preppy white dude.
"Hello! Hello! My name is Erik Smith and I am a representative of White Cohk-Colleges Matter." Erik introduces himself.
