Chapter Two

Bailey sprawled across the read magazines, deserted packages of food, and once played Rubix cube that she gave up on, and a laptop, that covered her bed. She threw herself into a seating position and looked blankly at her screen. Notifications screamed at the top of her empty screen. She glanced at them. 46 unanswered comments, and 12 helpless private chats. She looked at the followers bar. 578 accounts decided to follow her, her and her DoRkYQUE fanfics. DoRkYQUE. That reminded her to check the latest videos. She opened another browser to distract her from her writers-block. A little notification showed that DoRkYqUeEnGaMiNg uploaded a new video. She squeaked out of happiness and instantly clicked the little button with DoRkY's face on it. She squeaked even louder when she saw it was with AppleBarbequeVlogs. She smiled and was about to click play, when she heard her phone . RING RING, was the sound the interrupted Bailey's watching. She grabbed it and flipped it open, only to be blasted by the sound of Miranda. "SUP DAWG!" Miranda screamed into the receiver. Bailey flinched and said back, "What the h-" when she was interrupted again. "DID YOU SEE THAT DORKY UPLOADED A NEW VIDEO!" To prevent herself from being permanently deaf, she said back, "I was going to, but you called. What do you need anyway? I'm trying to write." Also watching YouTube but that wasn't the point. Bailey asked. She could hear Miranda's giggling, and the Mr. What theme song playing in the back. Mr. What. Miranda and Bailey loved that show. They'd spend Saturday nights staying up at Miranda's hours just to watch it. "What do you need anyway?" Bailey replied. "Oh! Do you want to swim? I thought that would be like the best way to spend the first- wait no- second- if you count that yesterday we got out of school-" Miranda rambled on, "I'll ask my mom," Bailey said. She put the phone on her chest and screamed, "Mom! Can I go over to Miranda's!?" Bailey's mom replied, "Sure! Tell her family I said hi!" Their families were close. "My m-" she was interrupted by Miranda "I could hear you ya know. See you in a few! bye!" "Who was that?" Fiona asked, from her bed to the right of Bailey's. "Yeah? Like Grace or something right?" Sarah said from her bed on the left. "No it's Amanda!" Fiona stated. "Miranda. It's Miranda." Bailey said in between the two, flopping off her bed. She went to the foot of her bed and opened her trunk dresser. All the girls had a trunk that served as a dresser at the foot of the bed. The wall parallel to their trunks was desks that had bookshelves above them. Then the third wall was were Fiona, Sarah, and Bailey's extra storage and makeup stations. The last wall had two doors. One to their bathroom and the other to the hall. Bailey yanked a swimsuit and her towel out of the trunk. She shoved it into a bag that also had her phone in it. She ran out the door saluting to her sisters, and into the hall. She ran downstairs and then outside and saw Frank mowing the lawn and Garret and Patrick playing soccer. They looked up at her and Garret spat. Patrick then laughed. The two of them had blond hair and were on the chubby side. Frank stopped the mower and looked at Bailey. Frank looked exactly like Fiona and Mr. Newinton. They all were tall, thin, muscular, and had brown hair. Mr. Newinton's was buzzcut-ed, Fiona's long and in a pony tail, and Frank's short and wisp-ed to the side. "Have fun!" he said, and then Bailey ignored him and went to open the garage. It was a disaster. Bikes were tossed everywhere and lost helmets decorated the floor. Tools and her brother's sporting items were discarded everywhere. Bailey yanked out her bike and found her helmet behind a trash bin. She hopped on her bike and rode a couple blocks down to Miranda's house. Bailey parked her bike in the driveway. Miranda jumped out of her perfect, expensive house, in her perfect, expensive bathing suit, past her perfect, expensive car, and looked perfect and thin. At least to Bailey. She looked at Miranda's appearance. Skinny with smooth hair the perfect shade of auburn. Bailey looked in the mirror of the expensive car at herself. Her short, dirty blond hair that was knotted and frizzed. She was not thin, but not chubby. Just; curved. And she hated it. "Hey!" Miranda smiled. Bailey hopped of her bike and threw it in the grass with her helmet. "Any vlogging today?" Bailey asked, following Miranda into the back yard. Miranda was a YouTuber. She was known for her gaming, weekly vlogs, and fangirling videos. She was known as TheCagedGamer with 3,213 subscribers. "Yep! And Rubin!" She said with a laugh. "No! Not the whale!" Bailey laughed. The Whale, or Rubin, was a blown up dolphin toy. And when they walked back, Rubin awaited them, floating around in the giant pool. Behind the pool was a tiny building. "You can go into the pool house and get changed!" Miranda said, gesturing to the tiny building . Bailey scooted over, and got changed into her green and white striped suit, with black ruffles at the top. While doing so, Miranda climbed onto Rubin. She straddled him, and then began to tip. She threw herself to the side to avoid being drowned in the water. After completing her heroic event she smoothed down the ruffles on her bikini top, and yanked up her high-waisted swim shorts. She hugged Rubin, letting her chest and arms hang over Rubin's head. She felt the warm sun on her back. It was sore, and the heat felt amazing. Miranda ran track, and she pulled a muscle in her shoulder blades. Miranda did lots of things. Sports, music, theater, and she could go on. She did it for fun, but it made Bailey be jealous of her. She didn't want to stop her favorite activities, but she didn't want her best friend to have self esteem issues. Bailey always thought badly of herself, but Miranda couldn't find out why. She was then interrupted by a holler, and then Bailey flew into the pool. With the impact of the waves, Miranda flew backward into the pool, off of Rubin. She screamed, then climbed back on Rubin triumphantly. "I still can't believe we'er going to be high schoolers next year!" Miranda said floating around past Bailey, "We'er going from the top to the bottom. This is sixth grade all over again." Bailey wasn't in Eureka at the time so Bailey had no clue what Miranda was talking about. "Don't worry though! You have an awesome group of friends that will be there for you always!" Miranda then reassured. They were always looking out for each other. Bailey and Miranda were like sisters. Expect, not. "You know, high school boys are w-" Bailey began, but then interrupted by Miranda. "I told you! I don't like anyone!" That was half true. "Come on Miranda! You can't be lonely forever! And any guy in school would be willing to date you! You're Miranda Westerley! Most popular girl or person in school! Track star! Cross-country star! Good at everything! Perfect!" Miranda hated when people called her perfect. If only they knew. "Bailey! I told you! I'm not perfect! Remember gymnastics? The doctors still don't know how my bone doubled." Miranda now has an extra bone in her left arm. "Besides that." Bailey said while trying not to laugh. After 5 seconds of awkward silence, they both burst out in laughter. They had an unbreakable bond. They were the definition of BFF. After mindless hours of swimming around the pool, Miranda and Bailey decided to film. "Lets make a challenge video!" Miranda said. "What challenge would we do this time?" Bailey asked. "How about... CHUBBY BUNNY!!!" Miranda screamed while jumping up off the ground. "Sounds good!" Bailey said while also getting off the ground. "THEN LETS GOO!!!" They both picked up their towels and ran inside to get the camera and marshmallows. When she came back out, she turned on the camera. "Hey hey hey!" Miranda said, waving her hands at the camera, "It's me, the Caged Gamer and my best bud Bailey, also known as DorkAndAppleFanGirl on Wattpad!" Bailey put up peace signs and introduced herself with, "Sup." Then two did their challenge. After, they rambled on about their pool experience, and their plans for summer. "Bye guys! See you next week!!" Miranda said as her and Bailey dived into the pool to finish the video off. Miranda turned to Bailey and asked, "Want to watch that new video by Dorky? I saw Apple is in it!"
