Everyone sat around the table to eat.

Jessie and Zuri sat at either side of Danielle.

Zuri was watching Ella videos.

Danielle felt weird seeing herself on the screen, she never watched her own videos after they were aired as a personal rule.

"Zuri, it's dinner time." Jessie said with a frown.

"But this makeup is really pretty." Zuri replied, holding her iPad up to show Jessie.

"Ooh that is good!" Jessie's eyes sparkled. "I love the peacock look with the eyeshadow."

Danielle took a bite of pasta, feeling self-conscious.

"Emma, is that homework, sweetie?" Christina asked her eldest.

Emma nodded with a sigh, slamming the math text book shut in front of her. "I don't understand most of this, and I need to learn it by next week's exam."

Danielle glanced over at the question sheet in front of Emma. "Oh, those ones are simple when you figure out the right method." She stated, she reached over and took the sheet and Emma's pencil. "Watch…" She flipped the sheet over to the blank side and started to solve the first equation.

"I'm a year above you, how would you know?"

"I'm just good with numbers." She responded, finishing answering the first question on Emma's work sheet. "Follow this method and you'll never get the answer wrong." She pushed the sheet back towards Emma.

Emma stared at the sheet in awe. "This is awesome! Thank you!" She smiled widely.

"No problem. If you need any more help with your math, come to me."

"I will!" Emma put the sheet down and began to eat her food.

Danielle got ready for bed. She went into her en-suite bathroom and clicked the light on before letting out a scream.

Luke jumped out of bed, hearing a high-pitched scream. Mrs Kipling got into Jessie's room, again didn't she? He grumbled and walked out of the room, to see Danielle backing out of hers. "Danny?"

Danielle looked to see Luke standing in the hallway in his pyjama pants. "Sp… spider!" She pointed towards her room. Why did it have to be him?!

"A spider?" He raised a brow. "Dude, you screamed like a girl because of a spider?"

"Please get rid of it?" She begged. "It's bigger than my foot!"

Luke laughed. "Fine." He went into her room. "Where is it?"

"Up in the top corner of the bathroom." She explained.

He went into the bathroom. "Whoa! That is a big one." He stepped upon the toilet seat.

She watched as he reached up to catch it. He's so brave… or stupid.

"Caught him!" He stepped down with the spider in his hand. "Open the window."

She nodded and cracked open the bedroom window. "Thank you." She breathed.

"No problem." He smiled, throwing the spider outside. "Next time, just send Mrs Kipling in, she'll enjoy the snack." He smirked, looking at her.

Her eyes glittered a little in the moonlight, shadows of her short hair cast over her flawless skin.

Looking closer, he's almost as pretty as a girl! He swallowed, shaking his head a little.

Danielle didn't notice Luke looking at her. She dropped down onto her bed. She gave a shudder, still thinking of the spider. "I hate creepy crawlies." She confessed.

"You are a really weird guy. You and Ravi are sure to become best of friends." Luke remarked.

Danielle met his gaze and raised a brow. "What?"

"Well, you're both nerds, you like lizards and such and you both scream like girls." He laughed.

Danielle looked away, hoping to hide her reddening cheeks.

"Well, good night." He left the room, closing the door behind him. Without those glasses… that dork could win over all my ladies…

Danielle covered her burning face with her hands and flopped back into the covers. That was so embarrassing!

She checked her clock on her nightstand. I need to upload a vlog… I have an album signing tomorrow. She sighed and went into the bathroom to shower and take off her wig.

She dried off and put on an oversized t-shirt and pants for bed. She threw a bathrobe over them and tied her wet hair into a bun.

She turned on her lamp and sat straight in her bed with her phone. Okay, just a quick one. She cleared her throat before clicking the live video button on her vlog. She clicked record.

"Hey guys! So here I am, in New York City! It's so exciting to be here. Also, the shower in this hotel is a-mazing!" She grinned. She reached to her nightstand and picked up a copy of her album. "Remember guys, I'll be at Times Square for an exclusive signing of my album. Each copy comes with a free I May Be a Little Insane T-shirt! They are utterly fabulous!" She thought for a moment. "Oh, yeah! You guys may get lucky and end up on my next vlog as I will be filming it at some point during the signing, so make sure you come with a smile." She checked the time again. "Okay, I'm gonna sign off, I need my beauty sleep so I'm refreshed to see all your wonderful faces tomorrow. Good night." She blew a kiss to the phone and hit the stop button.

She exhaled. "That went well." She shrugged off the bathrobe and dried her hair before putting a wig cap over it, just in case she had to quickly throw her wig on. Maybe I should have just cut my hair off and worn a wig for the Ella in me. She sighed and got into bed, reading the comments on her recent live.

"We love you, Ella!"

"Can't wait to see you!"

"Your new album is going to go platinum!"

She rolled her eyes. "I don't care about that… I just want people to enjoy my music." She mumbled. She locked her phone and turned over to go to sleep.

Danielle woke up early the next morning and packed her bag ready for Times Square. She sent a text her manager, asking him to send a cab to the building. Okay, you can do this… She opened her door quietly and slipped out.

She crept down the stairs and looked to the elevator. Too noisy. She took the stairs down to the lobby. She was lucky that Tony the doorman was asleep, so she ran past him and outside without being noticed. She jumped into the cab. "Thanks, I'm Danielle, my uncle booked you to take me to Times Square." She added.

The cab driver nodded and drove.

Danielle pulled off her wig and the wig cap, shoving it into her bag. It's gonna be a long day.
