Chapter 4
"Ella! Ella! There are some strange people in the living room!" Kim shouted from the living room.
Ella got up. Stupid preteens. She quickly got into the other room. Kim pointed at the strange men sleeping in her living room. "Kim. That's Ishtar, Will and Jack. They are our drivers for a few days."
"Oh." Then she pranced back into her room. Ella looked over Jack and Will. Strangely enough, they were wearing jeans and t-shirts. Jack has his hair tied behind his head. Will had his hair untied and laying long. They were both totally unrecognizable.
Ella slid into the kitchen. She took out the five different cereal boxes. Then took out thirteen bowls and laid everything on the table. Today is definitely a free-for-all day, Ella decided.
She soon left the room, hoping to get dressed. But before she could even reach her room, she was interrupted. Gee started screaming.
"Coming Gee!"
Ella ran down the hall and into Gee's room. She picked Gee out of her crib.
"Hello Gee!"
Gee giggled. Her eyes were still read and puffy, but atleast she was smiling. Ella rocked her back and forth as she headed for the kitchen. Ella strapped Gee into the highchair. Gee fussed, but soon forgot about her highchair when Ella put some cereal on her tray. Gee played with the dry cereal and giggled when they stuck to the ceiling.
Ella rushed into the bathroom and changed quickly. When Ella came back into the kitchen, Jack was holding Gee. The weird thing is, she wasn't crying. She was laughing and pulling on Jacks hair beads. He smiled at her, but then noticed Ella. Jack got up and handed Gee to Ella.
"I think she likes me, the little one."
"She has a thing for piracy. At least I think she does."
"Now, why do ye say that?"
"I sing A Pirates Life For Me all the time for her and she seems to like you."
"Really now? Ye sing?"
"Yes."
"Well, don't just stand there, SING!"
Ella was just about to sing when the rest of her cousins came into the kitchen, demanding breakfast.
"Maybe later." Ella replied. She handed Gee to Jack and went to sit her cousins down. She quickly sat everyone down and passed the bowls and cereal around. There was a lot of noise. Everyone was yelling and screaming at each other. Gabby was hitting Steffy. Steffy pulled Gabby's hair. Andy was hitting Mike and vice versa. Kim hid under the table trying to avoid it all.
Finally, Ella couldn't take it anymore. "SHUT-UP!"
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Ella in surprise. "Now we will quietly finish breakfast. Then we will neatly stack the dishes in the sink. Then we will get dressed and get in the van to go to the park. Am I very clear?"
Ella's cousins nodded. Soon they were all done. They quietly stacked their bowls and went to their rooms to get dressed. Jack looked at Ella weirdly.
"Luv, remind me to never get on the wrong side of that temper of yours."
Ella smiled at him innocently. Jack hands Gee to Ella. Soon, everyone is up. Hermonie was the last one to come in.
"So what did I miss, besides the fact of our unexpected guests?"
"ELLA IS A CONTROL FREAK!" shouted Jack
Ella picked up a tissue box with her hand that was not holding Gee and hit Jack upside the head with it softly.
"You're lucky I'm your friend and you're holding a kid that I won't hit you back." said Robin looking up from her cereal.
Jack stuck his tongue out at Ella. "I'll hit you again, Jack. Don't try me."
Jack pretended to pout. "Sorry, luv. But it is so fun. I can't resist."
Ella made a face.
Ishtar smiled. "Did I mention how cute you look when you are angry, little sister?"
Everyone laughed. Ella shot him a look. "I'm not your little sister and yes, you have mentioned that MANY times."
Ella slipped into the other room and turned on a Sponge Bob Square Pants video for the kids. They all for some reason have an obsession for the stupid cartoon. Ella sat Gee on the couch. Gee watched the screen with interest. "'Ponge Bob!" Gee said excitedly.
"That's right Sponge Bob. Now stay here. Kimmy will watch it with you in a minute."
Gee sat on the couch not saying a word. Soon, all of Ella's cousins were watching the movie. Kim watched the kids while Ella and her friends got ready.
Ella played with Elizabeth's hair one last time, trying to tie it in a ponytail. Elizabeth was wearing black jeans and a purple shirt, both belonged to Ella's aunt Elizabeth. Robin and Hermonie were in the kitchen doing the dishes.
"I can't believe Jack is actually here!"
"He is. So believe it, Birdy." Robin winced hearing the annoying nickname Hermonie gave her on the way here.
"Will you stop calling ME THAT?"
"It's fun to annoy people. You should know."
"I know. But I don't like to get annoyed. I like to be annoying."
Hermonie sighed. No wonder only Jack understood her. They were exactly alike.
Soon everyone was ready. Everyone piled into the car and they were off to the park. Ella sat in front fiddling with the radio. The kids were sitting in the back making a lot of noise. Ella finally got on to Radio Disney.
"This is Radio Disney, playing the number one song 'Notice Me' requested by Melinda Jones." Said the DJ
Ella squealed with delight and started to sing along.
Here's a story of a girl,
Living in the lonely world,
A hidden note,
A secret crush,
A little boy who talks too much.
Well, I'm standing in the crowd,
And when you smile I check you out,
But you don't even know my name,
Your too busy playing games,
And I want you too know,
If you lose your way,
I won't let you go.
[Chorus]
If I cut my hair,
if I change my clothes,
Will you notice me?
If I brighten my lip,
if I say hello,
Will you notice me?
What's it gonna take for you too see,
I want you to notice me,
I'll get you notice me.
Got your heart up in the clouds,
Tell me when your comin down,
No I don't wanna sink your ship,
It's not about the scholarship,
And all the friends that follow you,
Tell you things that just ain't true,
I'm the girl you never see,
I'm the one you really need,
so don't get me wrong,
you better make your move,
before my love is gone,
tell me
[Chorus]
I'm not like the rest,
I don't care if you're the best,
You see it, it's all the same to me ,
You just be who you want to be,
It's all the same to me,
Ohhh don't get me wrong,
You better make your move,
Before my love is gone,
Tell me
If I cut my hair,
If I change my clothes,
Will you notice me?
If I brighten my lip,
if I say hello,
Will you notice me?
If I cut my hair,
if I change my clothes,
Will you notice me?
If I brighten my lip,
if I say hello,
Will you notice me?
What's it gonna take for you too see,
I want you to notice me,
I'll get you to notice me...
I'll get you to notice me..
I'll get you to notice me...
Everyone clapped after she was done. Jack looked at her weirdly. Ishtar smiled at Ella.
"We're here!" Ishtar announced. Everyone piled out of the car and was ready for a day of fun at the park...
