The Cheetah girls: fuego

After about two hours, Aunt Marie came to pick Holy and Kevin. She was looking pretty stressed. Today was a pretty hectic day.

"Mom, you're late. You said you'd come and pick us up at four and it's five." Holy said. She didn't like to be grumpy, but when it comes to boredom, she couldn't help but be. Kevin had been watching cartoons. Not that Holy didn't like cartoons. She only liked the girly once which her brother hated.

"Where's Bea?" Aunt Marie asked ignoring Holy's grumpiness. "Bea!" she yelled

Bea rushed down the stairs after hearing Aunt Marie calling her.

"Hey Aunt Marie." She said with a smile giving her a hug

"Hi Bea. Is your dad home?" Aunt Marie said

"No." she said. Tom was obviously at work.

"Well thanks for watching them. We better get going."

Tom came home a few hours later at around eight. He was really worried about Bea since last night when she told him about her dreams and visions. He was a bit upset that he was one of the last people to know about her situation. 

Bea really appreciated to have a caring father like him. But sometimes, he could really over do things. In other words, he could be too protective. Tom had gone up to her room when he arrived to check up on her.

"Are you okay?" He asked

"Yah dad. It's not like I have a disease." She replied

"Well if you need me I'll be downstairs."

Bea took out her lap top and put it on the desk. She found a bunch of messages from her friends.

Carly: Hey girl. Need your advice. What do you think of changing the way Cloe dresses? Not that she dresses terribly. But if she wants this guy Nick to notice she exists, she has to change her fashion sense.

Cloe: Hey Bea. Can you believe Carly wants to change my fashion sense? I just got a text from her about me having to look hot for Nick to notice me. Is there something wrong in the way I dress?

Carly: I was thinking about the reason Cloe always freaks out when she approaches Nick. It's simply because she thinks too much. She isn't supposed to think about what he thinks of her. Actually, she isn't supposed to think at all.

Cloe: Great!!!! Now I am not even supposed to have a brain for Nick to notice me. I think Carly has lost it. She's taking this I-like-Nick situation way too far. I'm starting to doubt her advises are even going to work.

Thursday: At green of high

"This is hopeless." Carly said to Cloe "I told you, don't think."

"I'm confused." Cloe said. "How do you expect me to speak if I am not thinking?"

"Don't think about what to speak. Just speak." Carly said practically yelling. She really liked being the girl that knows all there is about boys. Cloe knew that sometimes Carly took this I-know-a-lot-about-guys thing a bit too far. 

Sometimes Carly said thinks that didn't make any sense about how to get a boy to notice you exist. But somehow, someway, the advices always end up working. Cloe squinted to show confusion and how the thing Carly was saying where silly, and not logical.

"Don't give me that look." Carly said in an annoyed way. She was getting bad tempered which was unlikely of her. "Okay. Maybe I am taking this a bit too far." She said calming her-self down."

"Hey." Beatrice heard a girl saying. She looked up and saw Melissa, the girl that had the necklace of transformation. She was wearing black as usual, and had a pink lipstick on. She looked pretty, Bea thought. But don't people ever get tired of her fashion sense? It's always black.
