Chapter 5 - Star Academy Here We Come!
Cece and I looked nervously at my mum. She brought out the pasta, which was in a big container. Obviously she was expecting us to eat a lot.
That made the situation better.
I stood up nervously, and turned to face my mum. I decided the only way to tell my mum that we'd eaten from McDonald's was to say it in a way she wouldn't understand.
"Well, err, here's a funny story! Me-and-Cece-was-coming-back-from-Star-Academy-and-we-was-really-hungry-so-I-bought-us-some-McDonald's-and-we-ate-a-lot." I muttered quickly, and then I sat on my bed again.
Now, I wasn't going to lie, my mum was a very smart woman, so no doubt it wouldn't take time for her to understand what I'd just said. She was silent, still thinking. Then her calm expression turned into an angry, quite scary one.
She opened her mouth, but before she could say anything Cece jumped up and she wrapped her arms around my mum's waist. My mum looked down at her in shock. After a few seconds, Cece let go of her and looked up at her, keeping her hands on her hips.
"Listen up, mum. Before you start ranting about how junk food is bad for you, let us defend ourselves! I was starving, but looking forward to see Star Academy. Then Unique tells me we need to leave. How do you think I felt? But then she says that we could take something to eat on our way back. Wouldn't you agree? Be reasonable here!" She said. Mum was astonished. So was I. Did my innocent 6-year old sister just say all of that? I knew she could talk, but not like that! My mum sat down on the sofa.
"Okay, I have to admit that you're right, but next time tell me first before you decide to eat that junk." She said. Cece and I nodded, smiling.
She ate the pasta while Cece and I watched SpongeBob on the TV. Yes, I, a 16 year old girl watched SpongeBob with my six year old sister. Don't judge.
Anyway, soon it was time to go to bed. My mum switched off the TV and we all climbed into our comfy beds. That night I dreamt about SpongeBob and how cool it would be to live in a pineapple with a pet snail called Gary.

"Wake up Unique! WAKE UP!!" Shouted someone in my ear, presumably Cece. Then it was silent again. I opened one of my eyes then regretted it instantly. Cece had pulled all of the curtains apart, making the light shine directly in my face!
"Ahh, the light! Cece, close the curtains now!" I shouted. Instead of listening to me, she just stood there, giggling, as if the light blinding me was funny.
Soon my eyes got used to the light, so I decided to get out of bed. I walked into the bathroom with the clothes I would wear today and took a quick shower, then I tied two towels tightly around me, dressed up in my outfit and walked back into our room. Cece was sitting on the couch playing with her very expensive dolls. I looked at what she was wearing.
She was wearing a cute, little, pink, sparkly tank top with some black shorts and pink flip-flops. I was wearing a pretty blue t-shirt, light blue jeans and my flip-flops. I combed my hair, letting it fall loosely past my shoulders.
Suddenly, the door opened and my mum came in, grinning. To me, it was creepy, because my mum didn't grin.
Like, ever.
"I've got amazing news!" She said, still grinning. "We're moving into our house on Monday, so we won't have to stay in this Hotel anymore!" She told us. Cece and I just stared at her in silence. My mum had an expectant look on her face.
What did she expect us to do, cheer or something?
I decided to break the awkward silence. "Um, that's great news mum!" I told her, forcing a smile. She just glared at me in return.
Rude much?
Then she said, "How about you and Cece go to Star Academy again? I still have some arrangements I need to do, so while I'm gone you to could go there! I've heard they're doing another tour for the people that missed it yesterday!" She said.
Oh, now I understood.
I looked at Cece, who was smiling and nodding her head. I shrugged and said, "It's fine with me, as long as we can get some McDonald's on our way back!" I grinned cheekily when mum glared at me.
"You won't do that, because I have some left over pasta for you two." She told us. I sighed and took my satchel.
"Let's go then." I muttered to Cece, and we walked out of the room.

Hello again!
You know, I have a feeling that this chapter is short. I know, crazy! This chapter couldn't be like only two pages, right? Okay, okay I'm joking. Sorry about the short chapter, ignore any mistakes and chapter 6 will be coming soon!
Also, I've got an idea for the cast. I want Selena Gomez as Unique, even if she had brown eyes and not blue!
PEACE!! :P
