Passion for Paris - A GEM Sisters Fanfiction

Chapter 4: Phone Calls!

Giselle's POV:

A day after we found out that we were gonna be spending two weeks in Paris with our cousins, Mom and my still-mopey Dad made us talk on the phone with them.

I'm actually pretty excited that I'll be spending some time with Lauren, she's great fun. But what if she's changed? I mean, the last - and only - time I saw her was when we were both 9. Nah, I'm sure she'll still be the same!

Mercedes on the other hand, is kinda annoyed. She thinks that Paris will be ruined by 'Geeky' Gabi and her obsession with school. But Mom says that because they're both the same age, they'll get on fine. Parents have no idea, though...

Evangeline is pretty excited. I don't know why though. She doesn't even remember Trent, because last time they saw each other was when they were 4. Oh, and she thinks that Trent is actually a girl. Yep, you read right. The only thing she can remember about Trent was his wild, long hair - so she's assuming he is a she... Dad said we shouldn't burst her bubble though, because then she won't wanna go to Paris.

Anywho, me and my sisters waited while Mom finished talking to Aunt Danielle.

"Yes, yes. What was that? The line isn't the best right now? Hmm, I can tell. What? Lauren wants to speak to Giselle? Alright," Mom looked over. "Giselle, come here please."

I hopped off of the coach and took the phone from Mom.
"Hello? Hello- Oh, hi Lauren! How are you?" I smiled.
The line was pretty bad, but I could still hear her.

"Hi Giselle! I'm doing great! Sorry if you can't hear me, the line is basically dead. It's 'cause it's raining here in Paris."
"So the weather isn't that good, then?"

"Kinda. Sometimes it's sunny, other times it's rainy. France has such a bad sense of weather!"
"Still, I cannot wait!" I squealed.
"I know right? I'm dying to see you guys!"
"Same! I-"

"Giselle!" Evangeling whispered, tugging me at my shirt. "Let me speak to Trenta!"
Trenta? Oh...
"Ok," I sighed. I put my ear back against the phone. "Lauren, Evangeline wants to speak to, erm, Trenta."

"Trenta? You mean Trent, right?" Lauren replied in a confused tone.
"Right," I whispered. "Just go along with it."

Lauren understood and I could hear her calling for her sis- I mean her brother. I gave the phone to Evangeline and me, Mercedes, Mom and Dad - who was slightly sulking - listened in.

"Trenta! Hi, it's Evangeline! What... I can't hear you that well! Hey, do you like Roblox - I love it! I play Minecraft too! And I don't mean to boast, but I'm... Hello?"

We heard a beep as Mom move forwards and grabbed the phone.

"The line's dead. We'll call them tomorrow because we're busy for the rest of the day."
"Yes!" Mercedes jumped up. "I don't have to speak to Gabi!"
"Mercedes," Dad said sternly. "Anyways, we need to go film a video for Youtube."

"What?" I asked, confused. "But we just uploaded Lazy Summer. I thought we weren't schedueled to film until next week?"

"Change of plans," Mom said. "We're gonna start filming Passion for Paris."
"Huh?" Evangeline scrunched her nose.

"Passion for Paris. It's the Vlog !t of you three going to Paris. Without us... We're starting Part 1 today, basically all the info and the getting ready for the journey parts." Dad informed.

"Ohh!" Mercedes said. "Neat! We haven't done a vlog for a while."
"Well then, what are we waiting for? Let's go!" I cheered.
