Poison in Wine [DISCONTINUED]

Chapter Two

I have woken up on 5 am in the morning, I stood up off my bed, stretching my arms up in the air.

It doesn't hurt to walk anymore. I thought. I was happy that I can walk without the pain again. My voice is still slightly hoarse, maybe all I need is just a glass of water.

I walked over to Zoe and Alfie's bathroom and turned the two knobs on the bath equally, for warm water. After moments of waiting for the bath to fill, I used a bath bomb Zoe have given me. I was amused by the art of the bath bombs.

I closed the door shut and locked it. Iciest dipped my foot in and then the rest of me. I felt relaxed and happy that I can have a nice, warm bath. After the bath, I changed into a white crop-top, black leggings, black ankle boots, and my little knapsack. I met with Zoe and Alfie, on my way to their living room.

"Hey, you're dressed! And you're walking." She said, hugging me. We let go of our embrace as I gave Alfie a quick pat on the back.

"I have a little meeting near here, I can just walk, but I'm going to see my best buddies, Joe and Will!" I said, cheerfully. "I'll take the train to Joe's place."

They both smiled and nodded. It was currently half past 7 in the morning, and I felt very awake and cheerful. The meeting was about a magazine and we're supposed to be planning my outfit for the photoshoot, so basically, we'll be pairing a bunch or clothing together and see which one's the best.

I went off and walked a few blocks away from Zoe and Alfie's place. I saw Dan, also known as, "danisnotonfire". He's part of the photoshoot. We both sat next to each other chatting about.

The meeting was great, I was supposed to wear a 'Lesoir' original in her album, 'François'. I was very excited in wearing that absolutely gorgeous dress.

I instantly sped to the train station, because I was supposed to be in Joe's house on 11 am, but right now, it's a quarter before 11. I'm the kind of girl who doesn't like to be running late, even though if I'm just going to be in a friend's house.

It felt like forever while I was on the train. But it didn't take as long as I thought. I jolted out the train and again, sped to Joe's house. I finally have found it after looking left and right everywhere.

I knocked on the door as I hear a, "Shut up, Will, I need money." And Will asked why and I heard Joe's voice saying, "For the pizza guy!" Joe opens the door and jaw to the floor in shock. He gave me a tight embrace, but I was gasping for air. I tap his back, telling him I couldn't breathe.

"Sorry, I just missed you, Soph! It's been ages." He said, smiling.

Will pushed him away and mumbling, "Piss off.."

"Well, well, if it isn't Dar-Darbee-Darbu-Darboshire!" I joked, pulling him into a warm embrace. He chuckled and welcomed me inside. I instantly crashed the couch and stayed there for a few minutes before Joe asked me why I was still there.

I reply, "You don't know what I've been through today." I sit up and sat on his lap like the old times and hugged him as tight as I can like what I used to do when I was around twelve. I'm twenty and he's twenty-three. He tapped my back as I let go.

"Have you met Caspar already?" He asked, I shook my head, no. Well. I've hugged him, but not talked to him, ever. So I guess I haven't met him. Joe led me to Caspar's room and just barged inside, which causing me to see a topless Caspar Lee. I turned my head around.

"Can you put a shirt on now, please?" I asked, ever so nicely. Joe nudged me, and messing up my hair.

"Us, boys, we don't like staying at home with shirts on. He didn't know you'd be here." Joe said, Caspar was still typing away on his laptop. I decided to sit beside him and messed up his hair, too.

"And you are?" Caspar asked, not even looking at me. I rolled my eyes in annoyance. I look at Joe and he waved goodbye.

"I'll leave you two alone." Joe stated, closing the door.

"I'm Sophia Cooper. And you must be Caspar Lee." I said, putting out my hand for him to shake, he took it. I was glad he's not being too rude as I thought he would be.

"Cooper, the model? The Victoria Secret model, the actress, and the 17 million subs Youtuber?" He asks, finally looking up at me. I looked down at him and all I could do is just smile and nod. He gave me a cheeky smile back, I don't know if that's his signature smile, or not.

"Hope to be good friends with you, Phia." He says, closing his laptop and setting it aside. He stood up and walked to his closet, getting a white t-shirt and he threw it over his head and set it onto his amazingly, muscly torso. Like Joe's but way better.

He seems different, not like the normal people I hang out with, he's just unique. I've never seen him before. As I saw on his laptop, he had a channel in youtube, having four million subscribers.

He jumped back onto the bed while I was still on. He decided to break the awkward silence and said, "I wanna know more about you. Can you tell me anything deep down? I'm trustworthy." He said, giving me another cheeky smile. I nod. I think I could trust this guys, he's best mate's with Joe and Will, so maybe Joe and Will gave him a good influence.

"Well, I was born on a plane, that was in the air, in between England and America. So I'm half British and American because of my birth and because my dad was American and my mum was British." I said, forcing a smile, thinking about my mum.

Kathryn Edith Monroe, mother of Sophia Cooper , me. She was a wonderful woman, only until I was eight. She started going to work and coming home very late. I became very suspicious on the door opening when it was about quarter past eleven at night, so I came downstairs and did the stupidest thing I can do and say "Mommy?". She glared at me and yelled and screamed. I saw the person she was kissing, and saw it was Jameson Drew, the person next to her in work. She threatens me everyday and started with oral abuse. But then, she started physically abusing me. That only happened when I was nine, and then straight to fifteen. And sixteen is the age when I left the house.

"Don't force a smile." Caspar's voice rang into my head, snapping me out of my horrid thoughts.

"I don't do fake smiles." I growled, giving him a half-second glare. He chuckled and lightly pat my back.

"Okay. What else can I know about you?" He said. I shook my head, implying that I am not going to tell him anymore.

I stood up and left the room, walking upstairs to Joe and Will playing FIFA, but Joe was teaching Will how to play the game. I pounced on Will, causing him to press random buttons on the controller. That was really fun.

While I was there, I made Joe, Will, and Caspar smoothies, containing: raspberries, blueberries, a banana, Greek yogurt, ice cubes, strawberries, and a few almonds. They liked it, and I was glad they did.

I checked my watch, seeing it was nearly 6 pm. I still had to stay with Zoe. I was about to go back to America, arriving the airport, and I got into a car crash, so that's why I'm living with Zoe at the moment.

I announced that I was leaving and I got a bunch of 'goodbye's. I left and came in an Uber to the train and got in the train to Zoe's.
