"Dela?" Shangela knocked on Dela's hotel door. It was their second day filming episode two of All Stars, the Divas Live challenge, and Dela hadn't come out of her room yet. Being the first person up at the crack of dawn was normal for her so when Milk commented on Dela's disappearance at breakast everyone was concerned. Apart from Shangela. Well actually she was a little worried but she knew that she'd come out soon if the group gave her another five minutes. Everyone knew the queen had always been good at keeping time! Five minutes turned into ten. Ten minutes then turned into half an hour and before she knew it it was twenty minutes before they had to leave the hotel to start filming. 

"Come on guys she's probably absolutely fine!" Shangela protested as Thorgy and Bebe walked with her down the hallway whilst partway through the apple she'd been attempting to eat before she got nominated to see what was up with the queen. "Also, why does it have to be me exactly?"

"Because everyone else is still half asleep I guess." Thorgy shrugged before gently pushing Shangela towards the door. 

"Let us know if she's dead yeah?" Bebe said half-seriously, trying to conceal the smile she had on her face.

"Very funny Bebe..." Shangela rolled her eyes as she knocked on the door, the other two queens walking back to the others. But there was no answer. Silence seeped out from the room. Was she even in there?

"Dela I'm coming in okay?" Shangela now said as she tentatively opened the door. Quickly she slipped into the room and shut the door behind her. The first thing she noticed was that the room was pitch black. The only shred of light was coming from the curtains, shining onto the bed. "Dela?"

"Go away.." Dela mumbled, her voice so muffled that Shangela had to strain to hear it. 

"Baby we have to go to filming in 20 minutes, come on." Shangla sighed and sat down on the bed, the bed sinking slightly underneath her. "Everyone else is up already!"

"I don't feel well." The silhouette of Dela's head peaked out from the top of the duvet, barely distinguishable in the darkness. Shangela leaned across and flicked the bedside lamp on, before looking back at Dela. She really didn't look okay at all.

"Oh- Oh." Shangela fell silent for a few seconds, racking her brain for what to do. "We could ask if everyone could have the day off today?" She saw the older queen shrug her shoulders lightly.

"I suppose.. I don't want to hold up everyone though." The queen chewed on her lip, sitting up and rubbing her eyes. Shangela shook her head at the remark.

"Nope! I'd rather have you well enough to kill it tomorrow than have you mess up today." Sliding off the bed with ease, she walked out of the room and down to where production were. "Dela doesn't feel the best, can we all have today off or something?" One of them nodded.

"Sure, will she be okay with company?"

"Oh I'll be with her!" Shangela flashed them all a smile and ran back up to Dela's room. She was glad- very glad.
