It was eleven forty-nine when they arrived in New York, and twelve twenty-
eight when they got to the hotel, Bunni Hills Hotel. Ren and Ruby said
goodnight to Sonny and Cher at floor two and made their way all the way up
to floor seven. Their room number was 736, with a balcony facing the city.
The room was immense with two queen size beds, a desk, a table with four
chairs, a couch, two chairs, a computer, a big screen TV, two bathrooms, a
VCR and a DVD player and Ruby's favorite feature, a Jacuzzi.
"Ruby, how long have your parents been saving for this trip?" Ren asked awe- struck. Ruby shrugged and dropped her suitcases at the door. Right away she walked into the bathroom left of the beds and closed the door. Ren sighed and put her suitcases into the large walking in closet. When Ruby emerged she was still fully dressed, and she walked to the beds. Ren grabbed Ruby's suitcases and threw them into the closet with hers. When she came back from the bathroom, Ruby was already fast asleep. Ren shrugged and hopped into the other bed, turning out the light.

Ruby was already awake when Ren got up, and the room smelt like bacon, eggs, toast, bagels, and juice.
"Room service!" Ruby said from the Jacuzzi. Ren rubbed her eyes and stood up.
"Where's the food?" she asked right away. Ruby pointed towards the front room and turned the stereo on now that Ren was up. On the table were endless plates along with a bunch of carts. "How much room service did you order?" Ren asked wheeling a cart out of the way.
"What can I say, the delivery boy was cute," she said. Ren sat and began to eat the food; it was still warm thank goodness.
"So what are the plans for today?" Ren called to the back room. Ruby was now in the front room wearing a towel.
"Well, I thought since it's the first day we just stay here and put our stuff away, go down to the café for lunch then take a dip at the pool. Oh and if there's time go to the all night gym!" Ren was fine with that and poured a glass of orange juice. It was eleven in the morning and they had quite a lot of unpacking to do. When Ren finished eating so took a shower and let her hair stay wet and combed down. Ruby took a shower to, but had to dry and curl her hair. It was nearly one by the time they started and only got halfway done because Ruby had grown hungry.
The café was located down on the main floor. Right away when she got downstairs people began to stare.
"They probably think you're Nicole!" Ruby said. 'Well duh!' Ren thought, annoyed with the small fame she had gotten. In the restaurant, she had to explain to the chef she wasn't Nicole Bunni and didn't want any special treatment. The chef nodded but Ren knew he didn't fully believe her. While Ruby was enjoying herself, they got seated at the best seat next to the window, where more people looked in a stared at Ren.
"This is so uncomfortable," Ren said covering both sides of her face. One or two paparazzi hung around by the windows flashing shots at Ren. Ruby gladly smiled and waved at the men, blowing kissed and giving thumbs up. The waiter brought them their food faster then he would anywhere else and Ren tried to eat as fast as she could.
"Come on Ren, they think you're famous. Just smile and wave at them and they'll go away," Ruby assured. Ren looked at them and smiled and waved then stopped. Apparently she did it for too long because even more men with cameras came running up. There was even a cameraman with a badge that said, 'Say hi to celebrities uncensored.'
"Lets get out of here!" Ren said asking for the bill. The waiter wouldn't expect her money and said Nicole Bunni and friends eat free. Ruby pulled her away before Ren could pull out her ID to show she wasn't Nicole Bunni.
"Ren this is great," Ruby said as they got in the elevator.
"No way! This totally sucks, we're going to have to spend our vacation hiding out in our hotel room!"
"Oh my gosh Ren, no way! We can go shopping and get tons of free things if they think your Nicole Bunni. Maybe even rub elbows with actual stars! Oh Ren, you just HAVE to pretend your Nicole Bunni!" Ren shook her head and Ruby was still begging by the time they finished putting all their clothes and stuff away.
"Ruby cut it! I cant do that, think of all the money those merchants will lose by giving me, an ordinary girl, free things. Just, no."
"But Ren, our room service was free because the bellboy that you were Nicole. He saw us get in late last night and questioned my parents. With them thinking they're Sonny and Cher they denied that they knew us! Oh Ren, please!" Ren stuck with her word but couldn't help but think how could it would be to get treated like royalty. Before they left for the pool, Ren put in all of Ruby's fake piercing and put temporary color streaks in her hair. To make he less noticeable she wore huge earrings that made her look like her face was extremely small and green contacts. To be safe she put streaks of brown all in Ruby's hair.
"Ready?" Ren said looking the mirror. She looked nothing like Ren Stevens. She looked like a punk gone wrong, but she didn't care what she looked like as long as it wasn't like Nicole Bunni. Ruby was mad about Ren disguising herself but she went along with it.
No one was out in the halls, Ren hoped they had all gone to bed and wouldn't be lurking around the pool and gym areas. No one was in the all night gym, not even a trainer. There were only two guests at the pool, but they stayed together in the shallow end making out most of the time.
"See Ren, there wasn't any need to get dressed up," Ruby said with her feet hanging in the water. Ren climbed in from the deep end latter and swam up and down the pool.
"It's warm, come in," she said going under, letting the color come out of her hair. Ruby sighed and jumped in.
"I still wish you would just pretend to be her, I mean you would also meet guys."
"Yeah, but they would only like me because they would think I'm Nicole and it would be an empty relationship." Ruby only shrugged and went under.
"This is dull, want to go work out?" Ruby said when she came up. Ren knew it was because the couple in the corner was getting a little to hot and heavy and Ruby didn't want to stare.
"But first we change at our room," Ren said. As she walked out she bumped into a girl and knocked her over.
"Sorry!" Ren said helping her up, but walked off before she could get a glimpse of her.
"Humph!" Nicole Bunni said as the clumsy average girl walked off.
"Ruby, how long have your parents been saving for this trip?" Ren asked awe- struck. Ruby shrugged and dropped her suitcases at the door. Right away she walked into the bathroom left of the beds and closed the door. Ren sighed and put her suitcases into the large walking in closet.
