Best Halloween EVER!

This is a blog from oct. 31, 2010 posted on 11.1.10

At approximately 3:00 I decided to slip into my Hippie's costume. I set my head piece (Whattver it's called), then put on my red high-tops. I did my make-up colorful, and I was ready.


When I was ready I left the house, this time with a clean non-mess house.

I arrived to the party SUPER late, Why?

Well in the way I spotted:

a magician failing at his tricks.
An hot dog stand
A ice cream truck
a store with cute shoes (I didn't buy anything)
And a store that only sold bracelets (Bought 2 only...)

When I arrived the party was already started. The decoration outside of my friend Josey's house was awesomeeee.

It was scary, but not too scary. Wrapped in fake spider webs and mummies.

I stepped in side to see a room of full of people in crazy costumes.

"Hey it's Bella!" A girl pointed towards me.

My eyes widened.

A unison of BELLA! BELLA! Suddenly started, annoying me.

"Hey Bella!" Sophia came up to me.
"Your pretty famous now." She said.
"No, I'm not. No." I disagreed.
"Bella , do you not want to be famous?" She asked.
"No!" I walked away.

I went to get some punch and got distracted by the cute Halloween cupcakes.

While I was pouring punch, something grabbed me, I let out a chilled scream.

I looked at what was grabbing me, it was someone with a mask.

I kicked his/her leg leading HIM to let out a loud OUCH!

"It's me!!!" He said, talking off his mask.
"RODGER! Don't ever do that to me!" I stormed off.

"Bella I'm sorry, I didn't know..."He apologized.
"NO." I said.
"Bella, I'm sorry." He said again.
I looked at his brown eyes and smiled.
"Whatever." I said, wanting to say "it's okay."

Next activity was apple bobbing.

We all surrounded the table with a huge jug of water containing floating apples.

I was close to the table.

"Hey, Bella want to bob some apples?!" A girl voice asked, pushing me and taking my neck dipping my whole head in the water.

I gasped loudly as I took my head out of the water.

I shoved my cold wet hair out of my face and looked at who did this.

It was Margaret.

I wouldn't talk, I couldn't.

"Why would you do that!?" Rodger argued.

Josey gave a towel.

"Leave this to me, egghead." A girl said and stood in front of hi,/

"Okay, Margaret... You went WAY to far. Your just jealous of... well you know." She said.

"Shut up Gianna--" Margaret said.

"It's GABRIELLE!" The girl said or, Gabrielle said.

"Yeah that, I don't care if I went to far. I can go as far as I want. All I wanted was you awesome wallet and well, your jewelry and purple nail polish." Margaret said.

Gabrielle gasped.

" Oh and, all that stuff you gave me. Thanks... Now I've gotten enough so I can stop acting like I like you. Ha." Margaret said walking off.

Gabrielle started crying, and ran outside.

I broke out from Rodger's hug and followed her.

"Gabrielle! Gabrielle wait!" I followed her.

She stopped not looking at me.

" I'm so stupid.Why did I want to be popular? Why did I think Margaret was my friend? Bella, I needed you not her." She hugged me and cried.

She let go.

"Don't ever trust her again." I added.

The door opened.

"Brownie you have to get inside, you're gonna get sick." Rodger grabbed me.

I looked at Gabrielle, she gave me a small nod.

I went inside where they gave me hot chocolate and extra towels.

I have been shivering from the cold water dripping down my face and hair.

"I'm gonna go check on Gabrielle,k?" Sophia said leaving the hug.

I was left alone with the crowd, in Rodger's hug.

"You're really cold." He said.

"Reaaaally?" I said sarcastically.

"Follow me Bella." Josey said.

I followed her into a purple room.

"Sit here, I'll blow dry your hair." She said.

I sat down in the seat, and I waited until my hair was fully dried.

"Thanks" I said.

I left the room to the party.

" Hey, Is Gabrielle okay?" I asked Sophia.

"She's REALLY upset." She said.

I walked off but something grabbed my arm.

"She's gone." Rodger said.

"What?" I asked.

"She left. She said she needed time. She also said she's sorry and she wants to start over." He said.

"Did she really mean it?" I asked.

"I don't know." He said.

"Oh okay." I said.

"PIZZA IS HERE!" Josey's mom yelled as she set the long table with pizzas.

After we ate, the party was over. Suckish, right?

Everything was a mess.

"I can help..." I offered as I picked up garbage from the floor.

"NO. Don't, please." Josey said.

I dropped the garbage.

She started crying.

"Omigawsh Josey what's wrong?" I asked.

"This was my first Halloween party ever. And it's also the worst in the generation of worst Halloween parties. " She said, crying.

"It was the BEST halloween party EVER!EVER!" I tried cheering her up.

"No, not for me. "

They're was silence.

"My boyfriend broke up with me." She whispered.

"I'm so sorry... I really am." I said.

"C'om Brownie. You ready?" Rodger said as he came out of the bathroom.

I looked at Josey.
"Bye Josey. Best Halloween ever." I repeated to her.

Then I went home with Rodger and Sophia.

He hugged me and repeated I love you, to me.

Confort to Bethie.

( This was found in the Bella dictionary)


Sal Thomas ( Sah-al To-mas)- A charming, cute, boy who knew how to react to a girl's feelings. Also, a loving person that can be the "perfect" boy. He likes running through your hair,hugging and holding hands. But also a Jerk that cheated on a girl and was spotted making out with a girl the day it was over.

Jerk: (JERK) Sal Thomas.

Bethie Cole: (Be-th- Coal) A nice, pretty girl who loves tortillas. A girl who is nice,loving,understanding, and warm-hearted. A girl lovely polite girl who does not deserve a jerk.
Note from Bella: Also a girl who should slap Sal in the face if Bella doesn't do it.


Now Bethie do you really need Sal? I've gotta admit, you guys were SO cute together.
Let him explain what happened, you decide from there.

~BELLS is a FAVORITE

P.S. When I'm over-excited, I like things COLORFUL

P.P.S: Bethie's name is written in a color close to the color of TORTILLAS!

Post # 25, Jammies and Gabrielle.

After an tiring day at the arcade, I was home for the rest of the day.

My attempt at teaching Coconut how to play dead failed.... if you were curious.

I did 1/4 of my homework cause I was bored...

Then, I tried to teach Tina how to roll over, epic fail.

Then I tried on my hamster Jazz, well I had no hopes for her either soo......

I texted Sophia 10 times. texts like:

Hey!

whatcha doing?

eating what?

Really, that sounds good.

No, I won't stop texting you.

Because I'm bored.

What are you doing tomorrow?

I never carved a pumpkin before.

Yes, I like coconut cream pie.

Then I tried making fun of AG knock-offs...

I looked for scary stories....

I even send a letter to Ag factory....

And I hear a soft knock coming from my door.
I looked through the peep hole and saw... Black hair?

I dared my self to ask "who"

I heard in a low soft voice...
"It's me."

At this point, it's starting to sound like a scary story....

So daredevil me looked at the peep hole again...

The black haired-head looked at the peep hole, blue bright eyes.

"Gabrielle?" I said as I opened the door.

She looked at the floor.

"What are you doing here?" I asked as I kicked one of the dogs toys from the middle.

"Why hello there coconut, hey Tina! Oh I came to give you this." She greeted the dogs and gave me a plastic bag.

It had my MUSIC tee and my jammies in it.

"Thanks... I guess." I said, awkwardly.

"I have something for you too... Some where... Step in...." I said.

Her flats clicked as she walked into my wooden floors and quietly sat down in my bean bag.

I scattered through the top shelf of my closet that contained a box with all the pictures and things Gabrielle gave me, my old clothes and mostly stuff that Gabrielle gave me including paintings and crafts.

I got a plastic bag from the kitchen and quickly folded everything into the bag.

"Here... Just your jammies and some clothes." I passed her the plastic bag.

"Thanks. You were awesome that day...." She said.

"Thanks!" I said.

When the kim possible sound (You know that sound when she gets a message) played, I got a text.

Gabrielle spotted my phone...

"Rodger? Haha! Brownie? Pathetic! I can't wait to tell Marga-" She stopped and giggled.

"Good-bye Gabrielle." I said, mad.

"It's Gabbie now. Not "Gabrielle" Or "Gabbie-L" Whatever you use to call me." She said.

I slammed my door.
Mad Again.

Now Margaret is going to hate me x10000.

UGH I hate Gabrielle Amber Taylor.

Yet, I wish I had her right now.

~BELLS mad that she's in love

The arcade of loooooove

I was home all bored, empty-minded, trying to teach Coconut how to play dead.

Which was totally not working...

Then I got a nice little text from Rodger.

Rodger:
U ready? I'm picking you up in like.... 10 minutes

"WHAT?!" I said to myself.

But then I remembered Rodger asked me to go to the Arcade with him.

So I rushed through my closet until I found a nice navy t-shirt with a white sweater.

I was almost ready until I forgot I didn't have shoes on, so I slid on some socks and navy converse.

And, I also did my hair.... Okay I just brushed it but It looked fine...
Then I rushed out of my apartment with a floor full of clothes, refrigerator opened, and my glass of juice still half-filled. Nice huh?

So I rushed out, Rodger was there.

"Hey there, mess" He said.

"WHAT?! What's wrong my hair, I forgot to do my hair again!? Wait, my glasses? WHAT'S WRONG?!" I asked, worried.

" Nothing, I was joking." He laughed.

"You ready" He asked.

"Only if you are." I said.

We walked to the arcade. We spotted a blue (YES, blue) poodle tied to a pole waiting for it's owner.

And we headed to arcade.

Where I won enough tickets to buy a green ring, a sheet of cheese stickers, and a lollipop.

Rodger laughed at me.

But he won a big fat bear, almost my size.

"Our first date gift to you." He said.

"Really!?" I said taking the bear from him....
I thought for a minute....
"Umm.... Here for you!" I gave him the sheet of stickers.
"What I always wanted!" He placed a cheese sticker in his forehead. I laughed. He place one in my forehead, too.

"I love you." He whispered into my ear as he hugged me.

I didn't say anything.

In school, halloween for us is on Monday.... So we're dressing up....

"What is your Halloween costume?" He asked.
"I'm gonna be a 60s girl. You?" I answered.
"I'm going to be batman." He joked.
"WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO BE!?" I said.
"A toilet" He said.
"REALLY?!" I laughed.


We walked home together.

"Bye brownie" He said, getting closer... Much more closer than usual.

My eyes widened.

No,no,noooooo..... But, I can't just walk away....

"Bye Rodger..." I said and turned around, making him fail at his kiss.

A night under the stars of love

Tonight was a solo stars dinner.
I slipped into my black dress inspired by Emma Roberts's red carpet dress.

I hummed along to Pony(It's okay) While I did my make-up.

I gathered my long layers of dark hair to my back and twisted in place with a clip.

I couldn't decided which shoes so wear, My silver flats or Red Ankle straps.

For a matter of facts, I would usually just go with a sundress and my converse.

But today, I felt like I wanted to be glamorous.

I was still curious about what Rodger wanted to say to me. So I texted him

Bella:
Rodger, what did you want to tell me?
I know you were upset when you couldn't talk.

He didn't text back in 40 minutes.

I took my hand bag, put on my fancy black-n-white jacket and said bye to Jazz,Coconut,and Tina and left.

I walked to the school quickly to find about only 10 of the 20 solo stars.

"Oh Isabella, There you are." Ms.Terry announced.
" Ma'am it's Bella only. My real name is Bella." I said.
" Okay, Every one huddle." Ms.Terry said.

I felt the warmth of everyone's breathing.

" This is the OFFICAL solo stars. 10 dropped out."

Every Whaaaat?-d
Including me.

Ten? Really? Wow.

She showed us the ten rings.
I could see the disappointment in her face.

" I'm so sorry,Ms.Terry. But I sure we're all here and going to stay here."
"But it's also a good thing. At-least for you guys... If theirs only 10 of you.... I'm paying the trips to Ohio!!!!"

Every one cheered.

"So is everyone here?" I looked around. No Rodger.

"Ma'am Rodger isn't here. I'm gonna text him now."

Bella:
Dude, where are you?

I was focused in my phone when I heard
" I LOVE you jacket. And you shoes."
I looked up and saw a pretty tanned-skin girl with gorgeous light brown hair.
"Thanks. I love your dress. And shoes." I complimented back.
" Your Singing was Great! My name is Miranda." She said.
"Bella." I said Extending my hand.
"Yeah, I know." She shook my hand.
"Oh my gosh I LOVE your nails!" I said when I saw her spider-web nails with a pink spider.
"Thanks, I did em my self!" She said.

When I heard.
"I'm so sorry I'm--" It was Rodger voice.

I felt like running up to him and hugging him.

"Dude where were you?!" I asked.
"Hey, that's my job. What took you so long?" Ms.Terry Joked.

"I'm sorry I'm so late I took a nap and I had to--" He looked up, still breathing hardly.

She looked at me. She shook his head and looked at Ms.Terry.

"And I to get ready." He finished.

We took a cab to the restaurant.

It was SO fancy.

I ordered they're fancy chicken soup which came with a side of fancy onion bread and something else that looked like macaroni and cheese, just better.

Everyone else ordered either fish or something else... Then we all ate quesadillas.

After we ate, we were aloud to walk around. First I went into the girl's room. It was SO fancy. The toilets were GOLD (Not real, obviously just colored gold.) They're was even a small sofa in there. It was AWESOME!.

Then I went to the court yard. It was a pretty cement-spot with benches and a small fountain. It was surrounded by yellow roses.

I looked at the fountain filled with pennies.

"Need a penny?" A hand with a penny appeared in front of me.
"Sure, as long as you have one" I looked at Rodger.
"I have one right here." He scattered through his pockets.
"1,2....3!" We counted together.
A tiny drop splashed in the water.

I wish for world peace.

I was stupid enough wish for that.... But I think it was a good wish.

"What'd ya wish for. " Rodger asked me.
I smiled brightly.

He gave and said.
"You know you look much better with out uniform." He said.
"Thanks you too" I said.

He walked towards the benches. I followed him.
"What did you want to tell me today?" I asked.
"I... Bella..."
He stumbled with his words.
" Bella, I know were best friends." He said.
I sat down with him.

"But, you're beautiful. Not only outside but inside too."

I looked down at my feet.

"Bella, your name describes you. Bella... I don't know how to say this..." He stopped.

I remember my name means Beautiful in Spanish and Italian.

"Rodger, bring it out." He muttered to himself.

"Bella I Love you." He said. His eyes looking at me like:
I just said something stupid but I mean it kinda of look.

"Tell me you love me too." He said.

He hugged me.

"Rodger, I love you too." I finally said. Tears coming out of my eyes.

"Don't cry, you don't want your make-up to ruin. But your look pretty with or with our make up."

We went inside.

"Hey Bella." Miranda came up to me.
"Hey!" I said back.
"Have You seen the girl's bathroom?" She asked hanging by my arm.

I looked at Rodger and he gave me a small nod.

Me and Miranda went to the girl's bathroom.

"Yeah I saw it. It's nice!" I said walking in the girl's room.

"I mean, who was sofa's in there bathroom!" She said.

We laughed and fell into the sofa.

"So you like to sing?"I asked.

"Yeah, and dance."

"Cool! You have to teach me how to dance. I suck." I said.

We talked and talked until we got called back to the table.

"What would you like for dessert?" the waitress asked.

"I'd like a vanilla-mousse strawberry cake please" I said.

It was Delicious!

We took a taxi back to the school.

" Brownie." Rodger called behind me.
" I can't walk home with you I have to go home... But do you want to go to the arcade?" He said.
"A first date,huh?" I joked.
He looked embarrassed.
"Sure." I answered.

He hugged me and said good-bye.

"Bella, wait up!" Miranda called catching up to me.
" I go this way too." She said when she got up to me.

We talked and talked, turns out we live in the same building.

Then I went home, took of my make up, un-did my hair, and took off my dress into my jammies.

Right before I turned off the lights, I got a text.

Rodger:
Good night, my love.

~BELLS in love.

In front of them, in front of you, my love.

"Hey Brownie" Rodger's voice struck me behind me.

He called me "brownie" Because of my famous brownies... and my brown eyes.. Weird right?

I slammed my locker
"Hey, I hate that nickname." I said, turning around.

" What's up?"He asked.
"The roof. You doing anything for the no talent talent show?" I asked.
"Noooooope. You?" He answered.
"No! Heck...no!" I said.
" You HAVE talent. You just don't admit it."

It was quiet for a second. I didn't say anything.

"Hey!!" We heard from a distance.
We turned around to see the beautiful green eyes of Sophia catching up to us.
" Hi!" I said.
"Hey are you doing anything for the no talent talent show?" She asked.
"NO!" Me and Rodger answered together.

Then the bell rang, we all got to our classes.

I had classes with Gabrielle next.

I sat next to her in EVERY class. Except for Science and Literacy.
Great, huh?

But it was like this everyday, quiet. Quiet except the sound of her soft breathing.

Then came lunch. I enjoyed a nice turkey sandwich. Then we headed to the auditorium to see the NO talent talent show.

We watched plays, listened to extremely not funny "jokes", watched weird dances, crooked modeling and much more.

Until .... It was quiet. Everyone listened carefully to the people arguing back stage.

Then Ms.Terry ran down the stage.
Then she headed to my direction.
" Bella! Bella!" She whispered loudly.
I looked at Sophia and Rodger and headed towards Ms.Terry.

Ms.Terry and I walked towards the exit.

"What wrong?" I asked leaving the auditorium.
"We need you to stall." She said quickly.
"But-No..-But..." I got cut off.
"Do you have you guitar?" She asked.
"Yeah it's in my locker but--"
" Run to get it Bella. Please. We need you to stall. A girl's costume for the play broke. Mrs.Johnson will be able to fix it, she just needs some on to stall. PLEASE BELLA."

I stared at her for a second, and shook my head slightly.

Then ran off to my locker.

Mrs.Johnson had the Fashion crew.

I took my guitar out and quickly ran back to the auditorium.

"Come through here." Ms.Terry said, leading me some where.

She opened a door that led to the backstage. I felt weird. I felt like a star.

"We've got the staller!" Ms.Terry announced.

I don't think "Staller" is a word. Oh well.

The quickly put make up on me, did my hair, and some tuned my guitar.

I felt rushed, as if I were late for something. I felt unprepared and that feeling you get when you realized you didn't do your hair and your halfway to school.

But I knew I looked beautiful.

They rushed me to a seat in the middle of the stage, placed two mics in front of me.

"What am I going to sing?" I asked nervously.
"Ummm.I Don't know.... That song you sang for the auditions... you still remember it?" Ms.Terry said.
I nodded yes, and she said "you'll be great" And walked away.

And up went the curtains.
Revealing the tiny heads of the huge crowd in front of me.

I got even more nervous.

I felt sick.
I looked to the side and saw Ms.terry mouthing "Bella, do it!" Or "Please, Stay."

I looked down at my guitar and then at the audience, who was waiting for me.

The I stared playing the notes of a year without rain.
And I sang.
I saw The brightest blue eyes in the audience, Gabrielle.
Her mouth dropped. Then she stood up and ran away.

My eyes followed her.
I felt like stopping, and running after her.

But I didn't. I kept on.

When the song finished, Gabrielle wasn't there.
I looked to the side and Ms.Terry's big smile pointed towards me.

The curtains went down and I ran backstage.
I put my guitar in my case and gave a loud good-bye to everyone and never thought of what I just did again.

I slowly walked to my locker, put my guitar in my locker.

I roamed through the lonely, quiet and creepy hallways, until I got to the auditorium.

Then I sat in my seat, awkwardly. Everyone staring at me.
Rodger and Sophia smiled.
I gave them a weak smile back.

After the talent show ended, I ran off to the bathroom.

I removed all the make up And looked at myself in the mirror.

"Need this?" Sophia's reflection scared me in the mirror.
"Thanks" I said taking the hair band she offered me.

I tied my long layered hair into a ponytail.

"You were great up there." Sophia said.
"Thanks... Don't mention it."
I said, and left.

And by the end of the day, This is What I got:

"You were AWESOME!"
"You have a really nice voice."
"Can you teach me how to play the guitar?"
"Where'd you get that shirt."
" Do you.... Want to go out sometime"

Yes, I got asked out like 3 times. All no-nos.

It was the end of the day.

"Brownie" Rodger ran up to me.
"Hey" I said.

We walk down the stairs not being able to say a word because of:

"YO bells! You were good!"
"BELLA!!!!"
"BEEEEELLS!!!"
"YO BELLS. HOW YA DOING?"
or
"You free tonight"
All said my the football team...

"So where you going to say anything?" I asked Rodger, when we finally got outside with peace and quiet.

"Yeah.... I was going to say, well you know that we'--"
"Hey!!!" We got cut off by some girl.
"Hi! Is it okay if I ask you for your autograph?"
"Sure?" I said awkwardly... I'm not even famous..
"Well you know, your not famous or anything...But I'm sure you are going to be... So when you become famous I'm going to be like 'totally, I got her autograph before she was famous' and every one going to be like NOOOO WAY! you know?"She blabbed as I signed her paper.

"Sorry you were saying" I said to Rodger when the girl left.
"Bella!!! Wait up" Another girl said.
"Forget it. I have to go." He walked away.
"Wait Rodger!!" I said. He ignored me.
The girl talked and talked but I ignored her and walked away.


I knew he was lying. I knew he was upset.

Creeeeeepy call.

I was in my sitting in my comfy bed, playing games on my turquoise laptop.

When the catchy ring tone started playing.

I looked at the screen of my phone and I saw a weird number, but I decided to pick it up....
B: bella
S: Stranger

B:"Hello? Hello?"
S:"Hallo?!"
B:"Helloooo?"

The background was the sound of weird men.


S:" I am hiding. I am hiding."
B:"Who is this? HELLO?"
S:"I will be safe. I just need to hide! I'm hiding.

The loudness of the background faded until I heard nothing.

B:"HELLO!"
S" Bella?"
B: "Mhmmm?"
S:" If I don't reply to you e-mails or phonecall I am sorry. But I have to hide in... A scary place. Or else I will be taken. Bare with me!"
B:"Who is this?"
Then noise started again.
S:" Bare....Bare with me.Wait no! I gotta a go! Oh uh."

Then I heard men screaming in terror.

And then BEEEP.

My heart beat fast. I stared at Coconut,confused.

Then I heard Beeeeop. (The sound that plays when I got a text)

I look at my cellphone screen, terrified.

Rodger:
Hey, I'm gonna walk my dogs. Wanna go to the dog parks.

Bella:
Sure.

I replied.

Then I quickly intructed coconut and Tina to get out.

Then I went to the dog park. Quiet and confused.

Not wanting to go back home...

Who could that be?

Any detectives? Emmi?

~BELLS

Big concert?

"Settled down dudes" Ms.Terry joked.

I sat down, next to Rodger. As always.

"Okay, so I told you guys that what it said in this room, stays in the room. You guys have been following that very well. Anyways, you guys are probably wondering about that "big concert" We are having in November. Any guesses where it is? The sky the limit."

I raised my hand quickly.

She called my name. The microphone boomed. ( Again, every time.)

"Virginia?" I guessed.

"Nope. Hint: Were flying there!!"

Every one cheered. But no one guessed right.

"Okay, Nuff with the guesses... Were going to OHIO!!!!"

I was the one that cheered first, of course.

I heard Ohio was tons of fun!

"Okay guys, settle down. So, here's how the contest goes. All of you with do a song together, only . You will be against a schools from , Ohio,Virginia and California."

Every one cheered. AGAIN.

"But one thing..." She began.

The room suddenly got quiet. You could feel the nerves in the air.

" Not everyone will go."

The room was quiet. Once again.

"I will decide who will go with us tomorrow. You guys will be here at 9:00 sharp."

We did a song. It sounded great. Well, I'm just saying that because I was main guitarist for the song. xD

But I didn't walk home nervous. I was confident.

For once, I felt confident.

I felt..... great.
With out Gabrielle.

Solo stars

Today, was the day that could change my life forever.

I could become famous.

My heart pounded fast and I took slow steps, pushing the heavy school doors.

Suddenly the guitar case hanging in my back felt heavier.

Then so did my heart.

Because if Gabrielle was still my best friend, She would be here. She would have made me breakfast. She would have cheered on to me.

I lined behind a blonde girl waiting for my time to audition.

I sat on the cold floor, worrying.

I took out my guitar I checked if it was tuned for the 8th time today.

I listened quietly to see if I could hear the auditions.

Until it was my time to shine.

"Next" The security said.

I stepped inside the huge auditorium and took long to get to the stage.

I took my quitar out of it's case and quickly checked if it was tunned... 9th time.

I saw the teacher's blue eyes that reminded me of Gabrielle's.

That made me stronger, but in some way weaker.

When the notes of "A year with out rain" started playing out of my guitar.

I was only 20 seconds thru when the teacher interrupted me.

"Beautiful" She started.
" Perfect, amazing. Can you sing a little for me?" She asked.

I panicked.

" I-I'm afraid I can't ma'am. I don't think I very good at it" I spoke into the microphone.

"Go ahead, try" She said.

"Okay." I whispered into the microphone.

The noted once again began.

" Can you feel me, when I think about you?"

The teacher smiled and I continued.

"Bravo, Bravo!" Her loud claps echoed in the huge auditorium.

She scribbled somethings in her notepad as I left the stage.

I don't know if I did good or not.
I'm worried.
What if I don't get in?

In two hours of waiting I did:

Bought a sandwich, juice, a pack of Swedish fish, And a pack of gum.
Practiced 5 songs in my guitar 3 times each.
Played tennis in the gym.
and called Sofia.

When every one got called in stage.

The teacher walked up the stage.

"82 students signed up, only 48 came to the audition." She started.

" Thank you for coming. You probably are wondering what are there boxes laying on the table."

I glanced at the navy boxes lined up at the table.

"If your name is called, you will receive one. That means you are in solo stars!"
Everyone cheered.

" Oh and if you get one DO NOT open until I say so."

She called a bunch of names.
One shocked me.

"Rodger Lucas." She announced

"Rodger?" I whispered loudly to my left.
He smiled at me as he came by.

She called more names. I was getting worried. She wasn't calling me.

"Oh, gosh. Almost forgot, Bella Flynne!" She said, the auditorium boomed as she spoke into the microphone.

I smiled brightly all the way up the stage and received my navy box.

Then she announced the last few names.
"For the rest of you, thank you for competing. You can try again next year, or if some one drops out you can enter. If you didn't receive a box, please exit the auditorium."
A load of people left the auditorium. The remaining people got closer.
Rodger sat next to me.

" Hello, Solo stars!" She said.
Everyone cheered loudly. Once again.

"You may open your boxes."

I opened mines the second she said OPEN.
It revealed a silver ring that said "STARS LIVE TO GIVE SOME SHINE TO THE NIGHT SKY"
It was a band ring. It made a smile to my face.

As soon as every one opened they're boxes, the teacher announced
" Now, they're is an even amount of students here, right? Now stand up, and get into two lines, ten students each."

We followed her instructions. I stood next to Rodger.
" Now with the person next to you, switch rings, and put them on to each other."

We did as so, It was so awkward with Rodger, I mean it felt like a wedding! xD

He slipped the ring into my fingers, and said "This is crazy"
I did the same to him.

Then she dismissed us.

I was walking back home when I heard "Bella! Wait up" I looked back and saw Rodger running towards me.
"What's up" I said.
"Nothing much, you?"
"well, I just got into the awesome club called solo stars." I said sarcastically
"Really, say, I just did the same too!" He said, I giggled.
"So what do you play?"
"Guitar.You?"
"Really? Me too!"

And we chatted all the way until I had to stop in my building.

This is so cool.

Now I know I CAN live with out Gabrielle.

Club sign-ups

Today, was club sign ups.

Not so great... I think.

Homeroom was okay, I guess. Ms.Flokenberson made us write an essay on why we should not talk in class. Because the other students (Not me) Were talking in class.

Math has okay, All the girls payed much attention. They thought Mr. Erico was "hoy".

And all the other classes were horrible except the ones without Gabrielle.

In science (My best subject ever, but now suddenly failing) some things were very weird.

" Today, you are getting your lab partner for the project, they are going to be in this sheet." Mr.Boone annouced as he stapled a piece of paper in the bulletin board.

"This rather be good" I whispered to Sophia as every one started to pile around the board.

Less than 30 seconds passed and everyone was grunting and yelling about they're lab partners.

And that is when we decided to take a look at the board.
We stood up, and looked at the board.
I was with some girl name Joelina Valquez.

I was disappointed, I didn't know the girl, but I know it wasn't Sophia.

Then we went to literacy, my worst subject. And Gabrielle was there. Great,huh?

The teacher called her 5 times to stop talking, when she finally decided to be quiet.

Then it was lunch. I watched Gabrielle leave the table that she was sitting in. Getting away from her little "clique". I stood up quietly Not leaving my eye off Gabrielle.

"Excuse me, I gottsa go tinkle" I joked.

I silently follow little miss Gabrielle. Well I followed her until she stepped inside the bathroom.
I wasn't sure. I was ready to turn around when a cloud popped up in front of me with Bethie's head on it.
" Don't you dare go back into the lunchroom! Go inside the bathroom and talk to Gabrielle!" Bubble-Bethie told me.
I went inside the bathroom. Gabrielle was already in a stall. Which gave me some time to think.

Until I panicked when the toilet flushed.

I saw Gabrielle come out of the stall from the mirror.

She stood next to me and got her make-up bag out of her bookbag.
She started with mascara, as I started to speak.
" Gabrielle,can we please talk?"
"Go ahead" She mumbled.
"You mean a lot to me. I'm nothing with out you. Why can't we be at least friends?"

"Be--- Bella... Bella? Yeah Bella, I'm sorry but I'm much with out you. No, we can't be friends. I mean if you were a real friend, you would have told me about Ruthie. And about Anabel. But any who, we've both have started a new life here. Away from each other, And I'm sure it can stay like this for long." She answered polietly.

"No, I haven't started a life with out you. It's like a huge chunk of my like is gone. And I thought you knew anyways. I am a real friend. And I promise you that I will be everything you expect."

"Sorry, er. Bella. We are apart now. Besides you have Tina, And Anabel's dog Snowflake,Jazz, and most of all Sophia."

I shook my head in fake agreement. As tears came running down my cheeks.
I left the bathroom. "Good-bye" I mumbled my last words to Gabrielle.

I walked quickly back to the lunch room but bumped into someone.
" Watch out lil' fella- BELLA! How are you doin- What's wrong." He asked, it was Rodger, once again.

"Nothing I'm fine." I lied.
"No your not..."
"Yes, I am"
"Bella?"
"Okay I just had a big fight that's all." I finally answered.
"With Gabrielle again?"
"How do you know?" I asked, confused.
"Let's say a little birdie told me." He joked.
" Sophia." I guessed.
"Yeah, Are you okay?" He asked again.
" I think I'm fine, Thank you"

I walked away, leaving him hanging.
Lunch passed quickly, and so did my next classes

When It was club sign ups. They surprised us with a club fair.

We went to booths and signed up.

I signed for this awesome club called "Solo-Stars"
You can play an instrument if you want, so I though it was a good chance to show off my guitar skills.

They said they're was a HUUUGE show off with some other schools. So I'm pretty excited.
I also signed up for "Scrap-booking and much more crafts" club, pretty much self-explanatory

" Whadda ya signed up? ." A voice asked me. Sophia, of course. I turned around and half-expected to see Gabrielle.
" Solo Stars and Scrap booking and much more crafts"

"I signed up for Glee and Activities planners." She said.

"Cool! Glee? I never heard you sing, I know it's going to be awesome."
"Thanks! Oh and not to brag, I'm a pretty good singer. Tomorrow is Karaoke night at my house, could you sleep over? And Sunday is game night!"

"Sure why not, I have nothing to do." I answered...

Thought tomorow are the auditions for Solo stars. I know it's a saturday, but the teacher wants to see who could commit to the Solo stars. (As if being in ever show, even if it on weekends or breaks)

So I'll blog ya later.

I'm Hopeless. Please Help me Elizabeth Clara-Marie Cole.

I ran up the subway stairs out to the gum-filled streets.

I rushed home and dropped my bags got my purse and ran out the door as quick as I could.

I ran to the right, making a slight turn to the left.
And ran all the way to Gabrielle's building.

I listened carefully at the elevator music of Gabrielle's building.

Hey soul sister, Ain't that mister mister of the radio,stereo the way you move ain't fair you know.

As I stopped in the fifth floor, and turned to the right to Gabrielle's door.

I took a deep breath and aimed my finger to the cream button next to the door exposing a loud BEEEEP.

The blasting music stopped.

When the door opened to a blonde girl. She stared at me awkwardly.
Kinda like the Why-is-there-suddenly-a-weird-girl-at-my-door-kind-of-look.

But I recognized the flower picture I have made Gabrielle on her wall. So I decided to step in her house.

And the girl gave me the why-are-you-stepping-in-here-as-if-it-was-your-house-look

The place was quiet, only the sound of breathing and the smell of nail polish.
I looked around and the girl still had the door open.

Gabrielle's room door was open, revealing a bunch of girls sitting in the wood floor.
Including Gabrielle.
I stepped closer as I saw Margaret (EVUL!) and a bunch of other girls.

"Gabrielle. Can I talk to you?" I whispered loudly.

She gave me the go-ahead-look.

"In private?" I said.
She stood up and the girl closed the door and stepped into the room.
I closed the room door.

"What do you think your doing here?" Gabrielle asked.

" Gabrielle..." I started.
I heard giggled from the room.
"I'm sorry, I just don't know what happened. I don't know why were fighting, we belong together." I continued.
"I need you Gabrielle. Who's going to listen to my songs? Who's gonna help me with crafts hauls?"

" I DON'T need your non-sense." Gabrielle started.

" I don't want to listen to your stupid song from your ugly guitar, I don't ever, oh ever want to be seen with you at the mall."

"Gabrielle....What going in to you?" I argued in to you.

"Nothing. I'm just getting the idiot part of you out of my life."

Tears started running down my cheeks.

" And I still do 'craft'. Ahem, Much better then you, still. Now I deco my nails with gems. Make my bed sheets. But I don't any kid 'arts n crafts' thing. That's only for losers like you"

I looked down at her black n' white sparly-full-of-gems nails.
But I wasn't just gonna stay there and cry.
I'm gonna stand up for myself.

"listen, your the idiot here. You, stupid you, is hanging out with the girl that almost got you going to another school." I started.

" Excusemoi, I'm hanging out with the person that almost broke your knee. That was funny." She giggled.

"SHUT THE FREAK UP! Your the idiot because your calling crafts kid stuff and you actually did for your whole life!"

We argued some more, used a few "choice words" As Bethie calls it.

"I can't believe that I was ever your best friend." I exclaimed.

"And I'm glad I'm not. Your best friend with the geek *** what her face Sophia. And that ugly Anabel" She exclaimed.

"Anabel is NOT ugly, and Sophia is not a geek."

"Shut up and get out of here." She slapped. Yes she did.

I stormed out of her ugly apartment and slammed her ugly door.

And I hope it broke.

I rode down the elevator and realized that I'll miss the the smell, the feel of her apartment.

Oh, almost forgot her ugly apartment.

I took the bus to the pet-sitter and picked up my dogs and Jazz (My hamster)

Then I went home threw away the box that contained the friendship bracelet that I was going to give Gabrielle if we made up.

Then I got my cell and texted Sophia:
Bella:

I went to Gabrielle's house. And we Fought again. Now she's hanging out with Margaret and some other girls. I hate her.

Sophia:
Don't worry about her. I'm your friend.

Then I watched raindrop pounding against my window and listened to the thunder until I fell asleep.

The sectionals cannot be explained.

My heart beat was so fast.
As if I've been running for 10 hours.
As I stepped in the stadium, where Bethie and Sonali where.

Me and Sohpia's family pushed agaisnt the big crowd.

We gathered together in the stage area, it was AMAZING.

We looked around for seats, it was so hard.

"THERE!" I yelled.

We all headed to the seats that my eye caught.
I looked around and noticed the feet moving around from the bottom of the curtains.
The seats in front of us were reserved. Alot of them.

We waited till the show began.

Brick Stone High went first. They were very good.
Then it was Bethie.

She was amazing. Her voice struck me. I could of sworn I couldn't breath for a few seconds.

" That's Bethie" I whispered to Sophia (Who is Anabeth's cousin)
"She amazing" Sophia whispered back

The sound of Ruthie and Grace's voices were truly amazing.
And the three of then together... That was a sound I would never forget. EVER.

Bethie's sparkly blue dress, shined as the spotlight was on her.
It went so well with her eyes.

Ruthie has amazing curls.
Grace's red hair, just... Wow....

Then It was Mariposa.
Sonali was beautiful.
Her perfect-color skin, her beautiful wavy dark hair.
Her voice was so soft. Yet so loud, and stunning.
I sang along with the gleeks under my breath. I couldn't resist it.

I can see myself in the movies.
With my picture in the city lights.

When the stage cleared except for Sonali.

Her solo started. When two girls in front of us stood up.

"Wait!" They yelled, the music stopped.

I regonized them, it was Erin and Ruthie.

They struggled out of the audience and went up stage.

"SONALI" Erin yelled.

They argued, whispering.

" People, We have something to say."

Ruthie called Bethie up to the stage.

"Ruthie and I have made a mistake." Erin started.
"We have pulled these two apart. Elizabeth and Sonali have been best friends since forever started. We were both brutally jealous and tried to tear apart two BFFs that are like peanut butter and jelly. Ruthie, is not Elizabeth's best friend, Sonali. And Elizabeth, Annabeth is not Sonali's best friend. Make sense?"


Bethie and Sonali Made up, And everyone Aww'd and ooh'd

And even tears went down my cheek.

I remember Gabrielle...
I didn't hate her. I loved her. I'm nothing with out her.
But she hates me. I have no choice. I can't do anything to change her mind.

But A light bulb went up in my head. I'm getting advice from Bethie and Sonali!

They sang together. Then all the glee clubs came up.

It was Beautiful. A sight I shall never see again.

I'll post ya later about the advice from Bethie and Sonali.

~BELLS

Gettin' ready!

So since it was about 5 hours till the sectionals, I decided to go down to the spa.

Okay, It was only cause Sundays are free....

I wanted to go the sectionals with fresh face,feet, and hands..

I was about to do my feet when I saw a familiar face from the distance.

Her hair was wrapped in a white towel, like mine was too.

She had pretty green eyes...

She got closer, when my vision started getting clearer ( I didn't have my glasses. Who wears glasses at the spa?)

"SOPHIA!" I yelled running over for a hug.

" What are you doing here?" I asked letting go.
"What are YOU doing here?" She asked.

"Well I'm here so see the Glee sectionals." I answered
"Wait from our school, Clubs haven't even started!" She Asked, confused.
"Nope. From other schools. I'm there to see the Awesome Elizabeth Clara-Marie Cole!"
"Who's that?" She asked, Smiling.
" Oh she's a big blogger. She's AWESOME!!! So why are you here?"
" Oh well my cousin from canada has big show down. Or something like that..."
"Oh, I think your here to see the Sectionals. It kinda like A glee show down."
"Oh... Cool!"
We chattedd while we did our toes.

" So what's you cousin's name?" I asked politely.
" Her name is Anabeth."
" Oh. She's evil!" I said.
"Yeah- Wait how do you know?"
"She's been blogged about" I said
" What Elizabeth is from Canada?"
"Nope, but her former best friend is from there"
"WAIT A SECOND! SONALI'S GOING TO BE THERE! BETH AND SONALI ARE GOING TO SEE EACH OTHER AGAIN!" I exclaimed.
"Sorry, I'm just so exited!"
"You know, this Elizabeth girl sound really cool"
"Oh trust me, She is. And she goes by Bethie or Beth."
I said as we left the room with our feet fresh and polished...

Next we headed to the hand place, next the back scrub and massage and much more.

And I left the spa with french-tip toes, Turquoise(My fave color) nails, And fresh toes,hand and back.

And some beauty pain too.

Then we headed to the salon. I had my hair perfectly flat, with a half ponytail.
Sophia left with her hair in perfect-natural looking curls. My curls never look natural.

Turn out Sophie was a perfect make-up person (?) So we ended up doing our make for free.

We are offical fresh and ready for the sectionals.

I'm SO exited.

~BELLS

We were nothing

It was awfully quiet.

Today was the morning that I would of woken up at Gabrielle house from a sleepover.

But that didn't happen because of her over-dramaticness.

They're was no sound except for the mean wind that pounded against my windows.

I could already see life with out Gabrielle was going to be sad.
Sad and quiet.

She made my life exiting.

But those are all lies because we were nothing.

But I had a great idea to break the silence.
I dialed Sophia's number.
Sophia, was a real friend.

"Good morning" Sophia Answered.
"Good Morning Sophie. It's me Bella!"
"Oh Hello Bella I remember when I gave you my number."
"Yeah. So... Do you want to come over my house to hang out?"
" Sure, right now if that's fine with you."
"Sure why not?"


I gave her my address and she was on her way.

I hung up the phone when I caught my bulletin board with a picture of Gabrielle on it.

That was the moment I took down all the pictures we had together and put in a purple box.

That purple box I wanted to burn. I planned to.
But instead I hid the box under my desk.

I hid it a place where no one could see it.
Cuz we were NOTHING.

As of now

I was in Gabrielle's house.

When Gabrielle's eyes turned to me from her computer screen.

Her eyes, Blue as the sky blinked with tears and ran off.

I chased her until she locked her self in the bathroom.

I got tired from pounding the door, and went back to the spot I was in hoping everything was a dream.

Minutes past when I decided to look in the computer screen.

The page titled as:
Bella's Bubble Of Every-day Ups N Downs.

I was shocked because how can she find something offensive in there?

When I read Farwell, Ruthie.

Well, What about it? I thought to my self.

I went to the bathroom door and knocked.
"Gabbie?" I said.
" What's wrong?" I asked.
A few seconds past when I asked again:
"What's wrong with my blog?"

" What wrong with your blog?! You mean what's wrong with YOU!" Gabrielle swing the door open. She stood in front of me, Her blue eyes looking fiery and mean.
"What did I do?" I said trying to keep my calm.
" You didn't tell me anything. You didn't tell me anything about that ana Doll belle girl. Neither you did tell me about Ruthie! You didn't tell me Sunny was getting a new doll!"

"But-" I got cut off.
"You don't want me as a best friend. You want her." Gabrielle's words shocked me.

" NO I DIDN'T HOW WOULD I?" I said loosing my temper

"Be quiet!! You..." She stopped.
"You aren't my best friend ." The words I just heard come out Gabrielle's mouth struck me like if I was just struck By lighting.

"Fine" I said.

"Well if were not best friends, you would need this." I said pulling the friendship bracelet we made until it broke.

Gabrielle Gasped.
" Leave. GET OUT!" She said pushing me.
I grabbed my bag and got out.

" You ugly-" Gabrielle slammed the door.
I didn't hear the last word.

I hate her.

Farwell,Ruthie



No, Ruthie isn't retiring.
But we are not getting her, I'm really not that sad.

Sunny realized that she didn't really like her that much.
So she was browsing thru Americangirl.com
And found the girl she really wanted:
Introducing:
Anabel Roselle.
A typical Lolita girl.

What is Lolita?
Well, lolita is a style.
They're is sweet lolita and gothic lolita ( Anabel will be both) .
It's inspired by young victorian girls.
consider it necessary to look "cute," "beautiful," or "elegant" rather than "sexy."
Since they are inspired by victorian girls, if some makes a rude comment, they ignore or just smile back.

I can't wait for her!
