Tessa

“Tessa!” Tulisa smiles as I walk in, spinning around.

“TUUUULLLIIISSSAAA!” I yell, dancing a bit.

“Wow Tessa, you’ve really got the hang of last week’s dance routine.” Tulisa smiles, her eyebrows raised.

“IT’S SOOOOOOO GOOD, ISN’T IT?”  I ask her.

“It really is Tessa.” Tulisa smiles again.

“Tessa!” George runs in.

“MONKEY!” I yell, “WHAT ARE YOOOUUU DOING HERE?”

“I’m really sorry Tulisa,” George apologises, looking a bit scared.

“HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!” I laugh manically.

“What’s so funny?” George asks.

“MONKEY IS SCARED OF TUUUULLIIIISSSSAAA!” I howl with laughter.

“What have you given her?” Tulisa asks.

“Jelly babies.” George smiles.

“BABY, BABY,

WHY DO I LOVE YOU SO?

MY FRIENDS TELL ME I’M CRAZY

BECAUSE I LOVE YOU SO,

I WISH I KNEW HOW,

TO NOT EAT YOU IN ONE GO

BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH YOU’RE A JELLY BABY

I LOVE YOU SO.”

George

Tessa suddenly stops laughing. I look at her.

“You’re awake.” I smile at her.

“I’m awake?” Tessa asks, confused, “I thought I was awake already…”

“Tessa, you’ve been laughing in your sleep since half six.” I tell her.

“Really?” Tessa gasps, and then laughs again, “Is that even possible?”

“I don’t know, but you were doing it,” I smile again, “What was this dream about?”

“You were there,” Tessa looks thoughtful, “I was talking to Tulisa and then you walked in and all the way through I was absolutely loopy.”

“No change there.” Jaymi walks in.

“JAYMI!” Tessa yells.

“Have you always been this mental?” Jaymi asks, hugging her.

“Love you too Jaymi.” Tessa rolls her eyes, “How long have you been watching me sleep George?”

“That’s a bit Edward Cullen.” Jaymi says, walking out. He’s a big twilight fan.

“Ella got a bit worried when you were laughing so much so she pretty much woke up everyone. I stayed in here because…” Because I love her. Because I don’t want her to be hurt. Because I don’t want to wake up and she’s gone.

Tessa’s phone beeps. She looks at it and jumps up.

“Tulisa,” She tells me, “I have to go and practise.”

“So do we,” I tell her, “We could all ride together?”

“Yep,” Tessa smiles, “Good idea.” Wow. She’s not that crazy today.

“MAMA MELANIE!” She screams, walking out in her penguin onsie, “MAMA MELANIE!”

“Hello Tessa.” Melanie smiles at Tessa.
