"You're uploading it" Robbie asked Cat. They were on the balcony of Cat's house, overlooking Hollywood and could see the roof of their school being walked on by builders trying to fix the leak that had issued them the day off of school. They were'nt doing much, browsing the internet and searching for lyric videos to their favourite show tunes so they could sing along to Robbie's guitar.
While Robbie had been called downstairs to bring up some juice and snacks for them both, Cat had started to upload her cover of Rolling In the Deep, by Adele. Cat smiled then questioned as it reached 98% uploaded, "Is it good enough?" Robbie had listened to it as soon as he arrived and had thought it was perfect, he replied, "When is your singing ever not good enough?" She smiled again and silently thanked him for being such a good friend. Cat closed off her laptop once the upload had completed and resumed her game of scrabble, moving a letter A to complete the word 'star'.
After their game, Cat walked Robbie home seeing as it was such a beautiful, hot, sunny day and they listened to music from his PearPad, using an earphone each. Robbie hummed along to his favourite song and she joined in, making them both look like humming fools walking down the street. Cat felt a buzzing in her pocket, it was ringing, so apologised to Robbie as she took her earbud out and popped it inside his empty ear for the time being. The number was unknown... "Hello? Cat Valentine here, are you my mother?" She asked, intrigued at who the mysterious caller was. She looked again at the screen of the phone as red as a fresh stawberry to check if it was infact her mother but she was right, it was unknown. The voice speaking to her as she replaced the phone to her ear was water. It was clear and fresh and it made her mouth go dry the more the person spoke, it was making her tongue scream and beg for... Bibble.
Mason chimed back in his English accent, "How is my bibble crunching, red headed kitten? Its Mason Thornesmith, Neautronium Records." Cat quickly switched the phone to speaker and tapped Robbie's arm furiously for him to pay attention. He took out the earbuds and listened to the phonecall with Cat.
"Did you get the Bibble ban revoked? Did ya? Did ya?" She stammered in desperation.
Mason chuckled, "No Cat but-"
"Darn it!" She shouted angrily, now craving Bibble even more...
Mason continued, "I just saw that new video you uploaded, it was amazing! Already it has..." Cat and robbie could hear him tapping on his computer keyboard, "-3200 views and its only been online for 2 hours!" Cat stammered, "Thirty two... Oh my gosh Robbie!" She squeeled and let Robbie lift her up in the air excitedly and twirl her around. They laughed and Robbie turned up the phones volume as he led Cat over to a bench, having a feeling Cat might possibly faint if the news gets any more exciting.
Mason proposed, "How would you like a conditional record deal with Neautronium?" Robbie squeeled and caused Mason to move his phone slightly away from his ear. Cat looked at Robbie as he kissed the top of her head and started to do a weird celebratory dance. However, Cat wasnt looking as happy as Robbie was and was still talking to Mason, "-Will i have to do all the stuff you made Tori do? Change my image? Personality?"
"No my dear, i've moved on from all that! Come by tomorrow if you can, Tori'll be here too at around 12 so maybe you could sing together and we can go from there?" Mason seemed to have planned everything out! Cat nodded happily, "Okay!" And the phone line hung up. Robbie updated his slap profile while Cat put her phone back in her pocket to 'With a superstar! Feeling- Elated :D', then wrapped his arm around her shoulder and she rested her head, thanking that te bech was under the shade of the tree. Cat's conscience was talking to her like it often did but this time it was showing her two paths...
If she went left, she'd ignore the phonecall, remove the video and continue in life. She'd hopefully pass all her exams witht he required grades and get into a performing arts university or have a job in music or acting. She'd love to be a singer but eventually all groups split, boybands break up and singers shatter until they do something crazy and get back into the media. She was just saving herself dissapointment.
If she went right, she'd accept the offer, get a life changing deal, money, fame and get invited to major events, maybe even televised! The Oscars... MTV Awards... The Grammys... She'd maybe even get a fanbase! The kittens? Maybe she'd get a celebrity boyfriend? Go to parties, see the world...
"I'll do it." Cat stated, sitting up from Robbie's shoulder. She had cut Robbie off mid sentence, he looked confused and shocked, "You'll rub my Grandfather's feet?"
"What? No!"
Robbie defended, "I was saying how he makes me massage his feet every first Tuesday of every month then you said, 'I'll do it!'" Cat laughed and got up from the bench, pulling Robbie up by the hand and they continued their journey to Robbie's house. Cat explained, "I meant the record deal. I want to be someone, i want to be a singer and this might be my only chance... It might also revoke my Bibble factory ban..." Robbie looked amazed at the thought of a Bibble factory and insisted she took him there when they arrived tomorrow.
