We arrived at the shopping centre and Marcus went to get the ticket. Me and Nims were sitting in the car, waiting for him to come back.

"We were thinking about adopting you, Ella" she says sweetly.

"Oh my god, are you for real? I saw your video and wondered what it was. I never thought it would be about me." I gasp in shock, and she chuckles slightly.

"I really like you so far, and you're really pretty too" She says and strokes the side of my face with the back of her hand. "I wish I had skin like this when I was your age" She laughs that made me laugh too.

"You two ready?" Marcus ducks his head into the car and sticks the parking ticket on the front window. We jump out and head into the shopping centre.

"So, where to first?" I ask and Niomi immediately replies.

"Top shop!" She squeals and claps her hands together.

"I love topshop too!" I say and link arms with her.

"Who doesn't?" She laughs and we begin to make our way to our favourite shop.

As we wander in a few viewers spotted Marcus and Niomi. They asked for pictures and I had to take them, but honestly I didn't mind. I was spending the day with my idols, I was the one they wanted to adopt.

Once all the photos were done they hugged and then made their way. Marcus went upstairs to Topman and me and Nimbob looked round.

"Oh my god I love these!" We both said multiple times, and in only 5 minutes our arms were full of clothes.

"Let's go try these on" Niomi laughs as we head for the changing rooms.

"How many?" The shop assistant says, and once she has given us our cards, we walk into changing rooms right next to each other.

"Come out and show me once you have an outfit on" Niomi says and slings her curtain back. I walk into mine and put on some white ripped At the knees Joni jeans, and a black and white stripey turtle neck crop top. I loved it already.

I walk out and after I say "Nims, I'm ready!" She struts out in the most gorgeous skater dress I have ever seen, with a pink background and blue and white flowers everywhere.

We stare in shock at how amazing each other looked, and Niomi rushed back into her changing room and came out seconds later with her phone.

"Selfie time!" She laughed happily and we made our way to the gigantic mirror. We posed and took a few mirror selfies and then went back into our changing rooms.

We tried on a few more outfits and loved them all. We walked out to see we had been in there almost 45 minutes, and gave in our tickets. Marcus was standing there waiting for us and greeted us.

"Nimbob sent me that pic, you both looked gorgeous" He looked down and slung his arm around my shoulder as we walked over to the cashier. We handed all our things over and Niomi insisted on paying, saying it was her treat to me.

We walked out and as we had been in topshop so long, we decided to go to Nandos. On the way we were stopped by a few more viewers, but I didn't mind. As Marcus posed for a selfie with one of the girls, I smiled to myself, knowing that that would've been me.

We got our table in Nandos and all looked at the menu.

"What you thinking of having, El?" Niomi asked and looked up from her menu to look at me.

"Maybe lemon and herb butterfly chicken with rice and corn on the cob" I said and folded up my menu before placing it back down on the table. Niomi and Marcus shared the chicken platter, with a side of fries each and we all ordered a refillable soft drink. Our food came in no time and we all dug in.

"I love it here, with you two" I smiled.

"We love it aswell, we think we're going to adopt you, Ella. Would you be okay with that?" Marcus said, concerned.

"Oh my god, yes! I can't believe this is life right now" I beam and they both smile before once again getting lost in the plates of food in front of us.
