 "I was lounging on my couch just chilling in my Snuggie, click to MTV so they can teach me how to dougie, 'Cause in my castle I'm  the freakin' man-" I groaned as te lovely sound of Bruno Mars woke me up. It wasn't that I didn't like the sound of Bruno, I just didn't and eight o'clock in the morning. I turned of the alarm on my phone, and stood up and stretched in my sweats and t-shirt.

I tiredly walked downstairs to pour myself a bowl of Lucky Charms, but the doorbell rang just as I was reaching for a bowl on the top shelf of my cabinet.

"I'll get it!" I yelled to my parents. I know, I'm nineteen years old and still living at home. At least I didn't have to cook, because I would end up burning my house down on the first attempt to cook myself a meal.

I opened the door to reveal my sister Perrie, which was like a mirror image, except she was looking amazing in a pair of studded high-waisted shorts and a light blue peter-pan collared tank top.

"Perrie! Hello, mum will be so excited to see you!" I said and hugged my sister. It was true, it seemed like my parents loved Perrie more. It was like I was a disappointment compared to her. We walked to the living room where my dad was watching the news and mum was reading the news paper, like they do every morning.

As soon as mum looked at us, her eyes just lit up, as well as dad. Mum got up quickly and hugged Perrie. "How long are you staying love?" She asked as soon as my parents were through hugging and welcoming her.

"I'm actually only here for a sort time, I just needed to talk to Paige for a short moment." She said and mum looked disappointed. I raised my eyebrows as she pulled me upstairs into my room.

"What's up?" I asked.

"I can't do this anymore!" She said. "You can't do what anymore?" I asked.

"This! Having people following you everywhere you go, being judged, and all the stress! Paige, I need a favor. A quite big one, really. Paige, I need you to switch with me. Like we used to do in school. Just for a couple weeks. Please, Pay." She pleaded.

"I can't sing! How am I supposed to be you when I sing like a dying animal. And, your dating Zayn Malik. I can't do that, I can't lie to the fucking world!" I said.

She smirked. "Little Mix is taking a break from singing and touring, and you can pretend to love Zayn. Please Paige, It's not forever!"

I sighed. "Fine, when do I start?" I asked.
