Chapter 25

"Brittany? Talia?" I said as I walked down the stairs. "What are you doing here?" I asked as I ran up and hugged them.


"We need your help..." Talia said.


"Sure. With what?" I asked.


"We need your planning skills." Brittany said.


"What type of planning do you mean?" I asked.


"Criminal type." Brittany said.


"What? Why?" I asked.


"Because we can't pick locks." Talia said.


"So." I said. "I'm not going to jail!" I whispered.


"You won't Barbie doll. It's me and Talia breaking in. Not you." Brittany said, acting all calm.


I looked into the kitchen to see if Victoria was in there. She was.


I pulled both of them upstairs. And into the hall.


"Are you serious?" I said. Trying to whisper scream but failed.


"Um yeah." Brittany said.


"Are you stupid?" I said.


"No!" Talia barked at me.


"Wait. Why are we letting her lead this conversation? We are older than her!" Brittany said, to Talia.


"Are you going to help us?" Talia asked.


"Or are you going to act like you have something to lose and be a wuss?" Brittany asked.


"If you haven't realize, I'm kind of watched by the Beckham's and I'm followed by the paparazzi." I said, trying to convince them to leave me alone.


"Are you in Barbie doll, or are you out?" Brittany asked.


Romeo started to walk down the hall, he had a bowl of popcorn in his hands. He walked right next to us and stopped.


"Hey. Phoebe. Brittany. Friend?" He said, not knowing Talia.


"Cousin. And her name is Talia." I said to Romeo. I honestly was still processing what my cousins were asking me.


"Nice to meet you Talia." Romeo said, smiling at Talia.


"You too!" My brunette, pretty cousin Talia said, her face started to get really pale... That's what happens when she doesn't know what to say/do.


"Anyways... If I can get you girls anything, just tell me." Romeo said, turning around and starting to walk away.


"What a gentlemen." Talia said.


"Hold it you." Brittany started, talking to Romeo.


"Here we go." I said, putting my face into my hands, scared of the next couple words that would come out of Brittany's mouth.


"I need two things from you little boy. Just two things." Brittany said. Looking at Romeo.


"Name them." He said, acting like he was interested.


"Don't name them." I said, giving Britt a death glare.


"1 I need you to cover for us when we... We... Get my sweatshirt from my locker in my soccer... Sorry football academy." Britt said.


I was scared what she was going to ask for as the second one.


"And 2... Your popcorn. I'm hungry." She said as she grabbed the bowl of popcorn out of his hands.


"Um... Okay. And fine. I'm in, what time?" He asked.


"Wait. Are you serious?" I asked, looking at Romeo, surprised.


"Anything for my... Girl... Friend... Anything for my friend and her family." Romeo said.


Was he going to call me his girlfriend? I asked myself.


But I guess the comment went right by Britt and Tal so whatever.


"Meet us at 7." Brittany said, smirking.


"Well thanks Romeo, you are a great friend." I said as I smiled at him.


He turned and walked away.


"So are you in? Golden boy is..." Brittany said, looking at me.


"No... I can't... I won't." I said, looking at the ground.


"Boo you whore." Brittany said as she threw a handful of popcorn at me.


"Okay. Okay. 1, this is not mean girls. 2, fine... I'm in. But we can't get arrested!"


"Welcome to the dark side." Talia said. Smirking.


"You guys suck." I said, laughing and hugging them.


This would be a disaster, and I could already tell.
