Summary: Gabriella Montez and her younger sisters Selena and Reva are the hip teen pop star and movie star sensations. Living life in glamor, money, attention, and fame seems like it would be well, glamorous, but when you had all of that glamor since you were five-years-old, it gets a little hectic and annoying and stressful. Sometimes, these three sensations wish they could be normal girls for once instead of big celebrities at young ages. Not the Montez Trio, the amazing teen actresses and singers. So, what happens when they experience life in a normal suburban city in New Mexico? Love, friendship, and a normal life.

Chapter 1:
Things Would be Alright
Gabriella Montez and her sisters were never nervous. It was just a fact that embedded themselves on their bodies. But, as they stood backstage of the wonderful Madison Square Garden, nerves were raking their bodies full-on.
"Oh, jeez, I think I'll throw up," Reva, the smallest and youngest of the Montez Trio, complained. "There's like, what, a thousand people out there?"
"Or maybe one hundred thousand," Selena muttered. "Plus the millions of people that will be watching on TV."
"Selena, shut up," Gabriella ordered. "You're scaring her." She looked around herself and sighed. "And me."
"Okay, girls, are you ready?" Rayline Montez, the Montez Trio's manager and mother, questioned as she walked cheerfully up to the girls. They all threw her worried, nervous, and petrified looks. Rayline frowned. "Oh, girls, you're scared, aren't you?" She pulled them all in for a big hug and sighed. "Well, think on the bright side," she said as she pulled out of the hug and looked at them. "You guys sold out Madison Square Garden! That's tough and amazing."
"Yeah, well you try and stand on a huge stage and sing in front of millions of people," Gabriella muttered, crossing her arms.
Rayline sighed. "I already did, honey, and it was amazing. It made me feel so powerful. Sure, I was worried and scared mindless at first, but as soon as I stepped out onto that stage and everyone cheered me on and I blasted into a song, all of it was gone. It felt wonderful."
"But what if we forget the lyrics?" Reva asked, wrapping her arms around her stomach. "Because right now, I don't even think I know my own name."
"That's just the nerves talking, Rev," Rayline said. "You should be proud, sweetie. You're only fourteen and you're already singing in Madison Square Garden." She turned to Selena next. "And Sel, you're only sixteen; that's young, too. Won't it be wonderful to be on that stage knowing how powerful and amazing you are?" Lastly, she turned to Gabriella. "Gabi…the leader of the group…my oldest daughter. You're going to be leading them tonight. Isn't that awesome? Guys, this is a chance of a life time? I mean, I didn't even get Madison Square Garden sold out and that tells me just how amazing you guys are."
Gabriella smiled. "Thanks, mami. We really needed that."
Selena nodded along with Reva. "Yeah, thanks, mami. I guess we're ready now."
Rayline grinned and hugged her trio once more. "You'll do great. I just know it. Te amo, my sweet daughters." she whispered.
All together they said, "We love you, too, mom."
"Ready in twenty seconds," the stage director instructed and the girls nodded. They gave their mom one last hug before each running off to their elevators to enter the stage.
"One," Gabriella whispered, clenching the necklace her father gave her.
"Two," Selena whispered on the other side of the stage.
"Three," Reva whispered lastly and she was lifted, along with her sisters, up onto the stage. Cheers erupted in the crowd as the stage shook.
The nerves washed off of the girls as they grinned.
They felt powerful and wanted. This was definitely not so bad.
One week later…
"Hurry, Reva," Gabriella demanded, pushing her sister through the car with one hand while the other tried to block the heavy flashes and questions from the paparazzi. She plopped down into the limo and rested her head against the soft, expensive leather seats. "Sel, you okay?"
"I think I'm bleeding," she complained, pulling at her lip. "My lip is busted. The camera has claws."
"I hate the paps," Reva exclaimed, throwing her head back like Gabriella did. "They get on my damn nerves."
"You and me both, sis" Gabriella said, looking over her to see Selena's lip. "It's just a little bump and blood. It'll clear tomorrow, hopefully. We seriously don't need any rumors."
"I am going to coop myself up in my room for the rest of my career," Reva announced. "Because if I see another camera, I might scream."
"You can't," Selena said. "Remember, we have an interview tomorrow."
"Oh shit, I forgot."
"You forget everything," Gabriella said. "Almost home…thank the Lord."
"Hey, when is mom coming back from Philadelphia?" Selena asked, reaching for a tissue.
"Tomorrow, right after our interview," Gabriella answered.
"What will I wear for the interview tomorrow?" Reva questioned.
"Rev, you have, like, a thousand dresses in your closet," Selena said, rolling her eyes. "What won't you wear is the question."
"Actually, I only have three hundred fifty-seven dresses, thank you very much."
"You counted each one?"
"Of course not. I made this obsessed fan count the receipts. He took it willingly. He even asked if he can have one of my receipts."
Gabriella rolled her eyes. "Don't use your fans like that, Rev."
"I'm not," she protested. The limo entered through the gate of the Montez Mansion and down the long driveway. Gabriella sighed as she peered out the tinted window. The house was so big. Like twenty acres. What would it be like to live in a normal suburban house in the city? Surely better than having cameras everywhere and worrying about if someone tries to come and kill them or break in. She spotted a security camera in a bush and sighed. So much better.
The chauffeur, Henry, opened the limo door for the girls and gave them each a polite and professional smile. "How was the ride, ladies? Not too jumpy, right?"
"It was great, Hen, thanks," Gabriella said, stepping out of the limo with her sisters who agreed.
"That's good to hear. Have a nice night, ladies."
"Thanks, Henry," they said to him and waved as he moved out of the driveway and out of sight. The trio quickly entered the house. Gabriella smiled when she saw their home school teacher, Rosaline, sitting on the couch watching TV.
"Hey, Rosie."
She looked up and grinned at them. "Well, if isn't the girls who sold out Madison Square Garden. Oh, I wish I could've seen you all in person, but I had to go to Albuquerque and visit my sister and her kids."
"It's fine, Rosie," Gabriella assured her, putting her bags down. "You've been to all the other ones, one can be let go."
Rosie grinned and got of the couch. "So, how was the movie?"
"Great, but after, it was horrible. I hate the paparazzi."
"I know," Selena exclaimed. "One of those damn cameras hit me in my lip. I should file a lawsuit."
"Selena, shut up," Reva said, pushing her sister. "Look, we'll be upstairs fixing Selena's problem. Talk to you later?"
"Yeah." Gabriella nodded and the girls left to go up stairs. Rosie and Gabriella plopped themselves down on the couch. "I am dreading the interview tomorrow."
"Oh, come on, it'll be fun," Rosie assured her.
"They'll ask me these questions I don't want to answer. Most of the stuff they ask is personal. Like, if I love someone or something like that."
"That was when you were going out with Justin Bieber that short two months," Rosie said. Gabriella sighed and her head snapped towards the door when it opened. She looked to Rosie for a short second before standing and walking slowly to the door. Rosie was right behind her.
"If those stupid paparazzi people keep asking me questions, I swear…"
Gabriella grinned and threw her arms around the person. "Mama! You're home early."
Rayline grinned and wrapped her arms around Gabriella. "Oh, sweetie, I missed you these past three days. You were watching the girls alright?"
"Yeah, they behaved. Sel got a busted lip though when a pap hit her accidentally with a camera."
"Oh, where is she? I want to kiss it better."
"Right here, ma!" Reva and Selena came barreling down the steps and into their mothers arms. Selena pulled back and pulled out her lips with her index finger and thumb. "Don' you 'hink I 'hould 'eport a lawhoot?"
Rayline laughed and kissed Selena's head. "Honey, go put some ice on it, it'll swell down." Selena walked away towards the kitchen and Rayline turned to Reva. "Hey, Rev. How are you?"
"Well, on the bright side, I don't have a busted lip," she replied and Rayline grinned.
"Hey, mom, can I talk to you for a second?" Gabriella asked, looking towards the floor. "It's important." Rayline looked concerned. She and Gabriella walked into the dinning area. "Okay, what is it you need to tell me?"
Gabriella looked up at her and sighed. "You know how I've been a celebrity since I was five, same as Reva and Selena?" Rayline nodded and Gabriella bit her lip (it's a habit that she does when she's nervous). "Well, you see, I've been thinking how amazing being famous was and that I love it so much, but…mom, we're kids. We're still very young and none of us experienced life as a normal kid. No normal friends or school. Not a normal house or ride. Nothing normal. I'm not saying I hate being famous. Because I love to sing and act. It's just…" Gabriella trailed off, not knowing where to finish her thoughts.
"It's just so much to take in and that you'd love to have a break to be normal?"
Gabriella nodded. "Yeah…that. If I could, I would disguise myself like Miley Stewart did in Hannah Montana. That way, I could have the best of both worlds," Gabriella joked.
Rayline laughed, but it died down quickly. "Gabriella, I get it. I didn't get into fame as fast as you and your sisters did. And I know it must be hard to grow up around all of this. But, honey, you're a celebrity. Celebrities and regular lives don't mix. Like, if you go to school. I'm afraid you and your sister will get hurt, Gabs. It's not that I don't want you to be normal; I do. I just don't want you to get hurt."
"Mom, I won't get hurt" Gabriella assured her. "I'll watch out."
Rayline sighed and ran a hand through her hair. "Okay, but I have two things to say," she said. Gabriella's eyes went wide and she nodded. "One, you have to look out for your sisters while you be 'normal'. And second, I will not be going with you."
"What do you mean?"
"Honey, remember, I'll be on tour. For months. Rosie will have to go with you. It'll be best if you go to Albuquerque. That's where she used to live."
"Albuquerque? You mean, like, New Mexico?"
"Yes."
Gabriella grinned and threw herself at her mom. She pulled her in a tight hug and sighed. "Thanks, mami. You're amazing."
Rayline grinned and hugged Gabriella back. "I know."
"When will we be leaving?"
"Well, in depends. It depends on what's planned. Like, you have an interview tomorrow and we have to find you all a place to live in."
"Rosie's house?"
"Well, first we have to talk to Rosie about it first…"
"I say yes!" Rosie exclaimed loudly, stumbling into the room. She fell and Reva and Selena toppled on top of her. Gabriella smiled and Rayline nodded. "Okay, well, I guess we have it settled."
"Yes!" Selena was the first to jump up. She threw the ice to the floor and did a happy dance. Reva was right behind her. "We're going to go to regular school and live in a regular house and won't have the damn paps following us everywhere."
"Uh, Rev, the paps will still follow us," Gabriella told her. "We still look the same, we're still famous, but we are going to try and be normal."
"Yes, girls. When you walk in the street people will recognize you," Rayline said. "And when you get to school…it'll be the same."
"I can't wait!" Selena exclaimed. Rayline smiled. "Well, Rosie and I need to talk about this little arrangement. Meanwhile, you all go to bed; you have an interview tomorrow."
The three girls groaned as they trudged up stairs to their rooms. But Reva followed Gabriella instead of going to her room.
"I know you're following me," Gabriella said, stopping and turning to her sister. "What's wrong? You haven't followed me to my room since you were nine because you thought there was a monster under your bed."
"Well, I obviously got over that," Reva said. "But…there is something wrong."
Gabriella grabbed Reva's arm gently and pulled her into her room. She closed the door and they both plopped down on the bed. "What's wrong?"
"I'm kind of scared for this thing, you know? You and Sel got into this business when you were both five. I was five months. I don't know how to deal with being normal."
Gabriella scooted over and grabbed Reva in a tight embrace. "Dad would always tell me sometimes you'll be excited for something, but not truly ready," Gabriella said. "But, you're Reva Montez. You're always ready for anything."
"Try saying that to Madison Square Garden," she mumbled.
"You were scared, but you did it anyway, right? We all get scared, Rev."
Reva sighed and wrapped her arms around Gabriella. "Tell me about dad."
"Well, dad, he was an amazing hero. He was so brave and he encouraged me and Sel to keep dreaming and reaching for the stars," Gabriella said, smiling. "When I performed in front of crowds, dad was always there, cheering me on right next to mom and Sel. When I was scared to get on a stage, dad told me to never give up. Mom does that now, but how he did it…he cradled me close to him, gave me a kiss on the cheek then did one of his famous Alejandro Houdini tricks. He rolled his palms together and there was a pretty white lotus flower waiting in his hands. Lotus flowers became my favorite flower. They still are; they help me remember him."
Reva sighed. "I love that he wanted to be a firefighter and hero, but I wish he didn't die because of it. I wish I got to see him at least one more time."
Gabriella pulled her littlest sister close to her and closed her eyes. "Dream big, catch a star. Being strong will get you far," Gabriella recited.
"I feel so much better," Reva announced. "Thanks, Gabi. You're the best sister. Don't tell Selena, though."
Gabriella giggled and sat up straight. She gave Reva's shoulder a squeeze and said softly, "You going to be okay?"
Reva nodded and slipped off the bed. "Yeah. Thanks, Gabi. I love you." The two sisters wrapped their arms around each other before Reva left and closed the door behind her. Gabriella sighed and sat down heavily onto her bed. Her hand reached up to grip her lotus shaped necklace. "I love you, daddy," she whispered before lying down and curling into a ball. Things would get better, she thought to herself. Things would be alright.
I haven't been here in a long, long LONG time. That's because my computer has a virus and the internet isn't coming up. So while I wait for my internet, I will be writing a story called Glamorous. I started this like four weeks ago and I already have thirteen chapters. I'll give you those chapters now and you guys tell me what you think.
