Daydream Believer

Chapter Seven

DONNA'S POV
Today is the day we leave for Hawaii, I can finally show off my clothes I brought back in September, for some reason I feel nervous to know that The Monkees are there now, it's just so crazy.

Honestly I never thought that Jen and Georgie would agree so easily, it normally takes a few hours and up to a full day to convince one but that's just one of them, it's normally Jen that falls first, and then it takes a full day to convince Georgie, she's the most stubborn out of us all, but she always comes around in the end, she's the mother of the group, always taking care of us, keeping us out of trouble, like a real mother would.

But what she's gone through in her life made her mature quick enough, nothing was easy for Georgia growing up, by the age of 14 she was working in the local cafe earning £4.50 an hour, and by 15 she was working two jobs, the cafe was a weekend job and wasn't enough for Georgia, she picked up a job in the local shop after school, me and Jen barely saw Georgia, her spare time, her spare time had been taken up by her jobs.

But by the age of sixteen when everything had struck home, Georgia had to work harder, she only had her sister left, with her mother gone when she was only ten and her father gone by the age of sixteen, becoming financially independent was Georgia's only hope.

She got there.

And my gosh she got there, paying rent, taxes, national insurance, bills. All at the age of sixteen. I certainly couldn't do that, I struggled to become independent, that's why I started theatre, building my confidence by going out onstage, it helped me a lot, once I was confident I found a job.

Jen never got a job, getting paid for singing at bars helped her gain money, everyone bar wanted Jen, she looked very happy onstage those nights and now she looks even happier now she is getting ready for the album.

The boot of the car slams shut as Georgia places the last bag into the boot, my stomach swirls with excitement as Georgia climbs into the drivers seat. Lucky it's quite early in the morning and there are fans around otherwise we would probably miss out flight and would be very disappointed.

"Okay before we set off is there anything else you need?" Georgia asks before putting the key into the ignition and the engine roars to life.

"Nope" me and Jen reply, clipping our seatbelt on.

"Okay then let's go" Georgia drives out of the street, the roads quiet for a winters morning in Manchester, normally the roads are very busy, but this morning it's silence in the air.

"Do you think we will have a chance to meet The Monkees?" The questions flies out of my mouth before I can get the chance to stop it.

"Maybe but it depends what part of Hawaii they are at, do you know where they are playing at?" Georgia says with a bit of hope, does she want to meet The Monkees too?

"They are playing at Honolulu International Center Arena, they might be in the same hotel as us" excitement overtakes me, I've always wanted to meet The Monkees, Mickey is my favourite monkee, his cheeky smile, his funny jokes, glistening eyes, soft looking hair, hmm so dreamy.

"I'm glad our fans don't know where we are going, finally have some peace for us" Jen stresses, placing the right side of her forehead up against the window.

"It's also good that our fans don't that we are going cause number one they are gonna think that there is something going on between us and The Monkees, and number 2" Georgia explains.

"Haha, number two" Jen chuckles at what Georgia was saying, making Georgia give them a motherly glare.

"Anyway, as I was saying, The Monkees will be there cause they are performing for the first time and that is gonna draw a lot of attention and young crazy teenage girls around, try not to get in the spotlight to much, The Monkees should get the attention, after all, they get attacked in the press about not playing their instruments" Georgia rants out truthfully, I nod at Georgia's rant.
