Prologue

"Auntie can you please come get us?" I spoke into the phone.

"Bella where are you?"

"Listen, I know I said I was hanging with the twins at Luka's but I lied." I told my Aunt.

"Bella, I swear if you did something Beyoncé related I'm gonna beat your ass! You so doggone hard-headed." She yelled into the phone. Wait, she actually just hung up on me.

"Bella what she say?" Sydney asked.

"Yeah is she coming to get us?" Simone questioned.

"She didn't say anything...just hung up and she's out of town anyways." They all smacked their teeth.

"I told you Bella she wasn't-"

I held my hand up for Luka to stop talking. He's the one that got us into this mess anyways. All we could do is hope someone comes to bail us out.

~~~~~~~~

What a weird introduction to my life, huh? Lemme take you to how it all began...

*Few Days earlier*

Bella
Monday, 8:15am

The late bell for first period rung and I'm already ready to go back home.

"You know Ms. Z is gonna give you detention if you skip her class today." My bestfriend Luka said. Ironically, he's already skipping her class right now, and I have her for third period.

"Luka, you the LAST person that should be lecturing me about skipping class." I said laughing.

"Whatever. You see Thing 1 and Thing 2 at breakfast?" He asked. I rolled my eyes as we stood in front of my locker. No one is in the halls right now.

"Nah. They texted me and said they're not coming today. Something about their mom." I said. Knowing Sydney & Simone, it could be a number of reasons why they're ditching school and I guarantee Auntie Sanaa doesn't know about it.

"Mr. Luka and Ms. Bella. I'm not gonna waste my breath. Gone and take this slip and head to class." Mr. Cole, our annoying school security guard, gave us. He swear he famous because he appeared in five episodes of Martin back in the day.

We took the slip and I headed to class. Luka....well, he's probably headed to the art room.

My life kinda sounds boring right? Well trust me, it gets interesting. My name's Bella Knowles, and you have no clue who I am. All you need to know is that I'm a junior in high school and I love to sing and dance. I actually attend a performing arts school and even though I hate school, the arts is what keeps me excited.

My favorite singer is Beyonce Knowles, and if you haven't noticed we have the same last name. I swear we're cousins. She just don't know it yet. My dream is to meet Beyoncé one day to tell her how much she means to me. If you know me, you know I can't go a day without mentioning something about Beyoncé.

*After school*

I walked over my besties' Sydney and Simone's house, as I do everyday since we live across the street from one another. We've grown up together all our lives, and it's because of my aunt and their mom. Their mom is actress Sanaa Lathan and my aunt is actress Niecy Nash.

It's funny how people expect us to live in Calabasas like the Kardashian's since we're "celebrity kids" but we live modestly. Auntie Sanaa and my Auntie Niecy make it very clear to us that they're rich, and we're not. We don't live in the hood, but our neighborhood isn't like the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air either. We're hood adjacent.

I rung the doorbell and waited for someone to open the door.

"Heyyyy Bella!" Simone greeted me. She's the youngest of the twins & the most lovable. Sydney is more like the firecracker and clapback Queen. I hugged Simone and immediately went to the kitchen. Their house is practically my second home. I even have my own room here. That's how close our families are.

"Why y'all weren't at school today?" I asked Simone. She shrugged her shoulders as we fixed us sandwiches. Sydney walked in and got her a snack too.

"Did we miss anything today?" Sydney asked.

"Uhhh, I'm not sure about first period because I was hanging with Luka before Mr. Cole caught us but it was just a review day all around." I said.

"Cool. Did you hear that Beyoncé is going on tour?" Sydney asked. We're all Beyoncé stans but I take it up a notch with my stanning.

"Nah. I don't really fall for rumors like that because they said the same thing last week and nothing happened." I responded.

"True but anytime there's speculation about a tour that comes out of nowhere, it gotta be some truth to it." Sydney said. We all nodded our heads in agreement.

"I know we're gonna have our money ready in case Beyonce does go on tour, but how you gonna get yours?" Simone asked me.

"I may have to do a few girls hair this weekend just to be on the safe side. You know my Aunt trips about anything Beyoncé related." I said. Just thinking about the last time I asked my Aunt for Beyoncé tickets makes me so mad. I ended up at the nosebleeds section dealing with her while the twins got floor seats. It's almost as if Aunt Niecy personally hates Beyoncé, and I have no idea why. You'd think Beyoncé stole her man or something.
