Pretty little promises (Mialotte)

Chapter 31 | So high school!

(Charlotte's pov)

I lay uncomfortably in my bed, attempting to fall into a slumber. My eyes clenched closed as my body snuggled closer to my girlfriends. It had been another restless night since hearing the news of my parents being alive. Constantly, I shuffled about in my bed, moving positions every minute until I heard Mia whisper a cute message into my ear.

(Mia's pov)

I've been making sure to keep a close eye on Charlotte since hearing the update on her mother and father. Her safety is my priority and I could never let anything happen to her. I had recently just been able to fall into a light sleep but rapidly got woken up at the feeling of movement in the bed. My eyes fluttered open and I wrapped an arm around Char's waist gently, giving her a sense of security.
"Hey princess, are you okay?" I whispered into her ear.
I felt her head shake lightly against my chest so in a response I just helped her tighter. The room gathered a comfortable silence while her head lay rested on my chest. After approximately ten minutes, I muttered,
"Baby, I think I know what will make you feel better.."
Her head slowly moved up and her eyes widened, eager to know what I was about to say.
"What?" She asked, following up from my previous sentence.
"How about we go outside for a walk?" I requested, knowing it would immediately cheer her up.
"YES! YES! YES! OF COURSE!" She yelled across her bedroom, before jumping out of bed and sprinting to get clothes on.
Her hands dug through her Chest-of-drawers and she flung everything out that she didn't find appealing or attractive.
"Perfect!" I heard her squeal before running out of the room and into the bathroom. I smirked at her adorableness and silently giggled to myself. Tiredly, I crawled out of bed and pulled on a pair of leggings and a cropped t-shirt. Charlotte joyfully skipped back in to see me and twirled around, revealing her beautiful dress. Although it may of just been a simple, flowy dress, on her it looked like a ball gown.
"You look.." I was lost for words, searching through dictionaries in my mind, "Ethereal.." I gasped, in awe of the beautiful lady standing in front of me.
"Thank you sweetheart! Let's go, I love you!" She burst out before grabbing my hand and grabbing me downstairs. We pulled on our shoes before interlocking our fingers and heading out of the front door. Her ringtone began to blast out and as soon as she gazed down at who was ringing, her face went a sickly pale.
"Is everything okay, gorgeous?" I asked, concerned.
"Mhm.." she nodded before whipping her phone away and looking at me with a large smile. This time, I could tell it was a forceful grin. I stroked her back before we strolled off into the distance. After finding a comfortable park bench to sit on together, I inhaled before asking her,
"What's happened, my love? You haven't been the same since you declined that call earlier." I meaningfully asked.
"Well.." she stuttered.
I honestly was begging to believe that it was her parents phoning her, but I didn't mention them incase it triggered her.
"I-I-It was Deliah. She's really been tormenting me recently." She bravely spoke before her eyes filled with tears.
"Oh sweetheart. It's all okay, I'll sort Deliah out. Come here.." I gestured towards myself before we snuggled into each other cutely.

(Charlotte's pov)

I completely lost track of thought as the moonlit evening sunk into my eyesight and my girlfriend's bright, red hair covered my chest. My eyes slowly closed and I didn't realise until the morning.

(The next morning)

I woke up to hearing the birds tweet around me and slight wind blow across my face. I looked over at the sleeping beauty next to me and couldn't help but grin and her naturally messy hair and resting sleepy smile. Every time I look at her, I can feel myself acting like a regular fifteen year old (I may be fifteen but I am not normal), gushing over my crush. I really feel so high school.

"'Cause I feel so high school every time I look at you,
But look at you,
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah,
Are you gonna marry, kiss, or kill me? (Kill me),
It's just a game, but really (really),
I'm bettin' on all three for us two (all three),
Get my car door, isn't that sweet? (That sweet),
Then pull me to the backseat (backseat),
No one's ever had me (had me),
not like you!"
