Leila's POV

I laughed hard when Michael stood up accepting the karaoke challenge obviously embarrassed but at the same time he's having a good time.

"I'll pick the song!" LM exclaimed appearing from nowhere.

Isaac followed behind with bunch of barbeques wrapped in a large paper bag in his arms.

"MAKE SURE YOU PICK ENGLISH!" he yelled as he walked past his brother.

"I KNOW THAT! DUH!" LM yelled back, gash this kid is such an imp.

Michael chuckled shaking his head.

Then LM picked a number from the song book.

Swift as a lightning he pressed the karaoke machine's button almost smashing it before pressing enter.

"THERE!" he exclaimed excitedly before moving aside giving the floor to Michael.

3 2 1 then the music started, it was his and his brothers' song "I Want You Back".

"WHOO! ORAYT!" People around the house exclaimed with excitement while starting to move with the rhythm.

He looked at LM with embarrassment before shaking his hand again.

LM in the other hand seems like he's having a good time, and motioned Michael like come-on-go-for-it.

He busts a few move and the crowd went wild cheering while my girly cousins squealed in ecstasy.

He began to sing at the microphone.

*Singing*

When I had you to myself, I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd

He sang while pointing at me and my cousins nudged me squealing and nudged them back.

But someone picked you from the bunch, one glance was all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look

Oh baby, give me one more chance

He lend the mic to the crowd.

(To show you that I love you)

Then back at his mouth.

Won't you please let me

My uncles served as the back up singers.

(Back in your heart)

Oh darlin', I was blind to let you go

(Let you go, baby)

But now since I see you in his arms

(I want you back)

Yes I do now

(I want you back)

Ooh ooh baby

(I want you back)

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

(I want you back)

Na na na na

(I want you back)

Instrumental came and he finally broke free from his shyness and danced along with the crowd. It was the first time I saw my father dance also, he's so funny.

Trying to live without your love is one long sleepless night
Let me show you, girl, that I know wrong from right
Every street you walk on, I leave tear stains on the ground
Following the girl I didn't even want around
