Distant Love

chapter 7

The bright light from outside was creeping in from the side of the curtain and stinging my eyes. I flinched as I began to see black blotches from the sun. My movement woke Kira up as she rolled over and groaned, rubbing her bed hair, trying to flatten it as much as possible.

''Morning fuzzy.'' I giggled as I looked at her messy hair.

''Bitch, you can't talk'' she laughed as she threw the closest pillow to her at my face. It was way too early to try and dodge or defend from the incoming attack so I just sat there on my bed ready for the hit. Surprisingly Kira wasn't strong enough this morning to make it hurt so I lightly threw it back at her face while I jumped up out of bed.

''I'm hungry, lets go.''' I hassled her. She groaned again as she rolled over closer to the edge of the bed.

''Roll again.''

''Kay.'' she mumbled. I watched as she rolled one more time, crashing straight into the floor. I burst out in fits of laughter while she manages to raise her voice at me ''Damn it Poppy!''

''If you wanna get me, you'll find me where the food is.'' I skipped down the hallway as I heard what sounded like a dog dying coming from my bedroom. I laughed as I heard Kira's footsteps following behind me.

''What do ya want for breakfast my Sleeping Beauty?''

''Pancakes.''

''Really? You just had to pick the most difficult thing in the world to make at 9AM?''

''Shut up, I'm your guest. You make what I want.''

''No you're family now, make it yourself, I'm having toast.'' I happily skipped over to the fridge and grasped the multigrain bread and skipped back to the red toaster.

''Fine just make me toast then.''

''Make your own.'' I gave her a big cheesy grin. She groaned as she walked over to where I was standing and pushed me out of the way.

''Oi!'' I gave her a nudge with my elbow.

''What?'' she grinned at me. As I was about to reply with the best ''morning'' comeback I could, I heard the sound of my phone ringing from my bedroom.

*i want you to rock me, rock me, rock me yeah, hit the pedal heavy metal show me you care...*

I ran down the hallway as fast as I could at that time of the day and pounced across my bed, reaching for my phone. I pressed 'answer' and questioned who it was.

''Morning gorgeous, it's your super crush.''

''Morning Mr Sivan.'' I laughed, ''and how do you know that you're my crush hmm?''

''You kinda told me a couple hundred times...''

''Oh, that's right.'' I laughed, ''I forgot you're famous and Im a Fangirl.''

''You're a beautiful, sweet and kind fangirl and I can't wait to meet you in person.'' he said in a hushed tone, you could hear the shyness in his voice. It was cute how he acted all shy and then there's me who's express my love for him all over the Internet and one of my bedroom walls.

''Naw thank you, I'm not all that fantastic, I'm everything my blog says.'' I laughed.

''POPPY! WHERE ARE YOU? YOUR TOAST IS READY!'' Kira shouted from down the hall.

I heard Troye laughing from the other end of the line, ''I think you better get back to her.''

''Yeah me too, talk to you tonight?''

''Definitely, see ya gorgeous.''

''Toodles cutie.''

I hung up and placed my phone back on it's charger. As I headed back down the hallway, the smell of burnt toast filled me nose.

''Wow okay, remind me never to let you cook again!'' I burst out laughing, ''I'm not eating it, you'll probably give us both food poisoning.''

''How is that even possible?'' She continued to laugh with me. I shrugged my shoulders and put some microwaveable waffles in the microwave.

''This might be safer.'' I sighed as I caught my breath.

''So what did lover boy want?'' she teased.

''How do you know it was him?''

''You kinda danced down the hallway.'' she laughed amusingly.

''Oh, I do that sometimes, don't i?'' I shrugged my shoulders and joined in her laughter.
