I wake up the next morning to Chris Brown blasting through an iPhone dock.
“NORMANIII! TURN IT OFF!” Lauren groans from at my feet, stuffing a pillow over her head. A collective groan runs through the group of disgruntled girls. we all stayed up extra late last night, then around 4 in the morning we all crashed. Since there were only two beds in the room, we were all scattered in various places. Me and Lauren took the bed closest to the window, with her sleeping across my feet and me at the top, while Camila fell asleep on Dinah on the floor and Normani and Ally shared the bed. What we had forgotten was that Normani had set her alarm to wake us up at 9. I rolled over, the bright white light streaming into the room and nearly blinding me. I get up and basically trip over Camz’s curled up body and turn off the stupid music player, then stretch my body. I was so busy trying not to kick Lauren off the bed last night that now my entire lower body was stiff.
I lean over the bed and shake Mani, “Get up, oh Queen Normani.”
She smiles, sleepily rubbing her eyes, “I like the sound of that.”
I laugh, waking Camz up, “Huh? What? Darn it to heck, Paige! I finally got the pizza!”
“Um… what?”
The Cubana shakes her head, “I was in the middle of a really good dream.” she pouts, sitting up, but the yawn that arises from her prevents her from pouting properly.
Normani shoots her a look, “...About pizza, Mila? Honey…”
Camila shrugs, “Why don’t you go take a shower and get dressed so I can get the girls up?” She says to me after sort of fully waking up.
I take her advice, since I’ve seen a few of their interviews, I know that on tour, showering was their biggest argument. I grab my chosen outfit for the day, a black crop top with black high waisted jeans and a red cutoff plaid shirt along with all the necessary bathroom items and head into the bathroom.
Fifteen minutes later, when I come out dressed and whatnot, the other girls are at least functioning...all except Dinah, who is still asleep.
“Good morning, shortstop,” Lauren says from her spot on the couch where she’s attached to her phone. What is she doing?
I sit on the edge of the couch that isn’t occupied by her and try to peek, “Hi, Lauren.”
She smiles, switching tabs, “You’re not low.” she states simply.
“I’m hungry.” I announce suddenly, getting up and grabbing the bowl of cereal that we grabbed from Walmart last night. I sit at the table and start eating and one by one, each girl slowly joins. I guess the smell of chocolate cereal gets them up. Even Dinah wakes up. Either that or I chew really loud...
“So what do you want to do?” Camila says the last one to sit at the table with her cereal, a huge bowl of Peanut Butter Captain Crunch.
“I don’t know,” I shrug, shoveling a spoonful of Reese’s Puffs into my face, “What about you?”
Camila grins, “The zoo!”
“No,” Dinah mumbles from her phone, “there is no way I’m going to sit in the sun with a bunch of animals.”
“But DJ, it would be so fun!” I say, giving her puppy dog eyes, I know that she can’t resist them from me. She tries not to grin, but the sides of her mouth are starting to turn up.
“You like animals, right Ally?” Normani asks, getting a nod from her, and then turning to Lauren who gives a huge nod. Everybody was too busy shoveling food into their faces to talk.
The six of us look a complete mess; apparently, nobody does any type of prepping before food comes into the picture. Camila’s curls are all over the place, and she’s wearing a grey V-Neck top that stops just before her knees, Lauren has her hair in a messy bun and she’s wearing trainer shorts and a black lacy tank top, Dinah had on a pair of Victoria’s Secret sweats, her hair up at the top of her head and a sports bra, Normani had on a pair of pink pajamas with clouds on them and her hair thrown lazily in a ponytail, and Ally was dressed as ‘Boyfriend Ally’ with a huge shirt (no doubt Troy’s)and her hair loose. She resembled a little lion.
“Pleeasee?” We all say at once, turning to the defiant brunette in the room.
She rolls her eyes, “Ughh, fineee! You’d better be glad I like you guys. But we gotta get dressed if we’re gonna beat morning traffic. And for the record, I’m only doing this for the pandas.” she sighs dreamily, most likely thinking about the fat, cuddly animals. I have the greatest idea all of a sudden. I nudge Mila, “Pst, I have the best idea.” I mumble low enough so that only me and her can hear.
“What is it, bubby?” she mumbles back.
“We have to prank Dinah.”
Her eyes, go wide, “Yasss! Give me your phone.”
At first I’m confused, but then I realize what she’s doing and fork it over. She types in my password (how did she…?) and adds her, Lauren,Normani and Dinah’s numbers in and then starts a group chat with everybody minus Dinah. She types, “Prank wars are back on!! Dinah’s gonna get it todayy :P”
As everyone gets the message, and replies come back, Mila hands me back my phone.
PaurenakaLo<3: What up short stuff?
ManiMonkey: 0.o if you get us killed chick…
MyQueenAlly: ...I’m interested…
I reply back: Dinah says she’s only in it for the pandas, I say she gets up close and personal with a panda…
TheBae(Mila): LOCK HER IN WITH A PANDA!!!!
PaurenakaLo<3: OMG
ManiMonkey: Or a creepy guy dressed like a panda
TheBae(Mila): I know the perfect guy!
MyQueenAlly: Austin??
Me: Does he follow you guys everywhere…?
TheBae(Mila): No… -_-
PaurenakaLo<3: Just camz, shorty, just camz. who was it tho?
TheBae(Mila): ...Austin :(
Me: LMAOOO
ManiMonkey: Not surprised. How r we gonna do this tho??
PaurenakaLo<3: Okay, so we can get austin to dress up like a panda and basically stalk us for a day
ManiMonkey: He already does… but anyways. If Dinah asks, we’ll say we didn’t see anything
Me: We should get “panda” to write her creepy messages!
TheBae(Mila): Austin says he’ll meet us @ the zoo around 11 and he’ll do the messages.
MyQueenAlly: Okay, then we have to get ready to go… Leave no traces of these messages!!!
ManiMonkey: We remember nothing…
I delete the thread and go back to eating my cereal. When everybody was done, I washed dishes while the girls took showers and went through their daily routines and whatnot.
“Okay, all set to roll out,” Dinah announced, standing in front of where I was drying my hands off, “you ready?”
I look behind her at the girls who are wearing their evil smirks, “Yep… Are you?”
