My Life as a YouTuber

Chapter 11

The next morning when I woke up, I was greeted with a text from Shay, asking if I could watch the girls again and take them to an appointment. Usually, I don't watch them this much, but being back home and done with Playlist Live, I don't have a bunch of stuff to do so I agree. Rolling out of bed, I go into the bathroom and refresh my curls, putting on a little makeup, and changing into a basic outfit that I know will work for chasing kids down. 

When I got to Shay and Collette's apartment, I parked the car before heading up the elevator to pick up the girls. They both run forward, hugging me and talking a million miles a minute, excited for their appointment. Collette comes out from around the corner, telling the girls to go get ready so that we can leave. While they do that, she explains what the appointment is, sending me the address.

Before I know it, Avia, Emmi, and I are out the door and in the car. Their appointment isn't until 10:30, and it's around 8:00 now, so I decided to run some errands while we wait. We arrive at our destination, Whole Foods, and get out of the car, grabbing a cart and picking up all of the groceries we need. It was a little hard as I don't usually shop at Whole Foods, but it was on the way. By the time we've checked out, packed up the car, and gotten home, it's almost time to leave for the girl's surprise.

Per their parent's request, I vlog everything. Blindfolding the girls before driving them to their destination. When we pull up, I tell them to take the blindfolds off and they see their surprise, a photoshoot just for them! They get out of the car and walk down the red carpet, posing for the few "photographers" on the side, fully playing into the idea that they're famous. You can tell that this surprise was exactly up their alley.

When we get inside, they freak out over all of the things they can do. There's a recording studio where they can record a cover of a song, and a makeup and hair artist ready to get them glammed. They also have plenty of outfits to choose from, a whole wardrobe covers one side of the wall. Instantly, they run over, picking their outfits and fighting over who gets what. Typical sister behavior. Once they decide, they go and change before sitting in the makeup chairs.

The artist does their makeup to their liking, not going too heavy. They both love it. After, the hair stylist asked them what color they wanted in their hair. You can see their eyes light up at the idea, one picking purple and the other picking pink. After they choose their hairstyles, the stylist gets to work and before I know it, they're all ready to go. They rush over to me, excitedly telling me about their choices.

"You guys look beautiful," I say, cupping their faces and sending them a big smile, "Now you have to make a decision, do you want to record a song or model for photos first?" At this, they look at each other and together, they decide they want to sing. They each pick a different song for a solo and then decide to sing "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" by Taylor Swift as a duet.

They weren't half bad for two kids who had never had singing lessons. Once they're finished, the worker explains that they're going to put the songs on a CD that they keep to take home. In the mean time, the girls get their photoshoots done. They looked cute and we're obviously having the time of their lives. Before we knew it, our time was up, and were gathered their photos, and the CDs and headed back to their house.

The whole ride they couldn't stop talking about how it was the best surprise they'd ever gotten. Little did they know that I had something else up my sleeve. Once we arrive back at their house, they rush upstairs, showing their parents and siblings what they have and explaining each little thing. We listen to the CDs and then I sit them on the couch, ready to tell them their surprise.

"Okay girls, I have a big surprise for you. I've been planning this for a while and your parents have been keeping it from you. Tonight, we're going to the Taylor Swift concert!" The girls scream in joy, running over and tackling me in a hug. They keep thanking me and before we know it, the whole family is in a limo on our way to the concert. We enjoyed the concert and by the time I got home, it was 1:00 am. 

I walk into my apartment, groaning and throwing my keys on the counter before flopping onto the couch. I start to fall asleep before I wake myself up, getting ready for bed and settling in to edit the vlog. When I finish, I crawl into bed and snuggle under the covers, thinking about how great of a day it was and how the girls loved every second of it.
