Playing Hooky and Cuddles

It was 5:00 a.m and I didn't even get to sleep a wink and I have school in about 2 hours, I sighed as I scrolled through my twitter feed, I stayed up all night trying to write a song but i couldn't even write any good lyrics. I was in my bed, legs underneath my black and white comforter that had the pattern of Lily flowers all over it. It was pretty cold during the night so I like the fact that I have a pretty thick comforter to keep me warm. My little sister actually picked out my comforter for me because It was her favorite, he name is Lily which is why she picked the one with lilies all over it, plus it's my favorite flower so I was okay with it.

An hour had passed, nothing exciting happened, just in bed, scrolling through my twitter feed. It was 6:08 a.m and I heard my mother's movement in the other room, indicating that she was awake. We had thin walls so we practically heard everything in this house. I got out of bed, yawning while scratching my head from being in a loose bun all night. I walked across my room, kicking some of my dirty clothes that were on the floor to the side while trying to get to my door. I opened my bedroom door to see my mothers bedroom door wide open right across for my bedroom.

I walked into my mothers bedroom, quietly knocking on her door while looking to see if she was in bed, and she wasn't. "Mom?" I said quietly but in a whisper voice so I don't wake Lily up. "I'm in the bathroom getting ready babe." I heard my mother say from the closed bathroom door. I walked to her bathroom door opening it, revealing my beautiful mother doing her hair. I leaned on the door frame, watching my mother curl her hair, focusing on how the loose curls would fall along her shoulders framing her face. "And why are you up so early this morning? Writing a song again?" my mother asked me in a subtle voice, I nodded my head and sighed "All night and I couldn't even think of anything and I have to get ready soon!" I sighed as I gently hit my head against the bathroom door frame. My mother looked at me through the mirror with the face of concern "Stay home today, you don't have to go to school, you, Lily and I can go on a family date today, how about that?" I smiled at my mom while looking at her through the mirror while nodding my head, agreeing with her. I walked behind my mom and hugged her from behind while my head on top of hers "I love you." after kissing the top of her head. I walked to her big bed and got under the covers, grabbing her T.V remote and turning the T.V on. "Not to loud, you don't wanna wake up the Princess."

"And in today's News Abby Skylight was seen outside a homeless shelter, giving food and cleaning supplies to the homeless people. She was holding a little girls hand and we cannot see the face. Does Abby Skylight have a daughter? Who's the father? What is this international rock star doing with her life? Come back later this evening to find o-" I turned off the T.V before the woman on the news can finish her sentence. I yawned once again, taking my silver long hair out of its loose messy bun, having it fall against my back, I quickly put it back in a tighter bun "I swear these News people have nothing better to talk about." I stated to myself "Well, you are quite famous babe! Of course they'd want to know more of you." my mom responded, obviously listening to me.

Yes, that is indeed right. I am an international rock star, I'm a solo artist and my name is Abby Skylight. Of course Skylight isn't my real last name, my little sister Lily picked it out for me. Originally it was gonna be Abby the Snowflake because that's what Lily calls me because I always bleach my hair to silver and she thinks it looks like snow. But I didn't want anyone else calling me Snowflake because that name is reserved for her. Lily is everything to me, she's a 7 year old with light brown hair and beautiful brown eyes, She's very clingy with me and I call her my Lily flower.

I have a slender short body, silver hair, brown eyes, thin arched brows, a slim button nose, freckles, red cheeks, my lips are quite full and I have pale skin. My roots are growing in so you can see my natural hair color which Is dark brown. My hair is long and it reaches down to my lower back. I have some what of a grunge style however when I go to school I hide my identity. I become the opposite of who I am. I wear a wig every single day to school which is a medium brown color, straight short bangs, shoulder length hair and glasses. I wear almost little to no makeup and I wear plain clothing. I look rather girly at school, I attempted to fit in but really, I don't. Sometimes I get picked on but not to much, sometimes people are cruel but honestly I don't hate it, I actually kind of like it. I guess you can call me a masochist

It was already gonna be 7:00 a.m and I was debating if I should go to school or not. I pulled out my phone to see if I had any text messages and I had one from my manager asking me how I was doing on my song. I decided to ignore it and not respond, I wasn't in the mood to think about that. My mom finally got done doing her hair and decided to come lay with me in her bed. She crawled into her bed and laid her head on top of my legs facing away from me. She yawned, I was looking down at her face, remembering what she looked like in my mind. She had a soft jawline, her bottom lip was fuller than her upper lip, her cheekbones were contoured and her nose was slender, her lashes curled with a light coat of mascara with dark arched eyebrows, she had her cute freckles from cheek to cheek, her black shoulder length hair made her hazel eyes pop. I will forever be blown away from how beautiful my mom was. She had me at 16 so she's very young still.

"Snowflake?" a tired voice came from my mothers bedroom door, Lily was rubbing her eyes, probably from tiredness. Lily yawned, I chuckled because of how adorable Lily was. She had on one of my T-shirts, it was plain gray and it reached past her knees. "I was looking for you, cuddles." Lily said after yawning. I patted the spot next to me telling her to come here. "Baby did we wake you up." my mom asked and Lily shook her head no "I want Snowflake.". Lily climbed onto my moms bed and crawled into my arms for some morning cuddles. My mom got out of bed telling us she was going to make breakfast for the two of us. "Lily flower, do you want me to stay home today? We can go on a family date today if you'd like?" Lily got real excited and nodded her head yes. "So then, where do you wanna go today Lily?" Lily made a face which looked like she was thinking about where she wanted to go. She shrugged her shoulders "Let me go ask mom what she wants to do." I got out of my moms bed, picking up Lily having her legs wrapped around my torso while I walked into the kitchen.

"It smells good, whatcha makin mom?" I sat Lily down on top of the dining room table while trying to look over my moms shoulder. "I'm making pancakes!" right after she said that she sat plates down onto the table, Lily sat in her chair and started to dig in quickly. Breakfast was usual, mom and I just talked about work and what not, kind of boring. "I wanna get a tattoo." I told my mom. "Oh? of what" my mom asked, I told her I wanted to get a Lily flower on one of my fingers but I didn't know when. She suggested we go today and get it done by her friend. "Wanna go to the tattoo shop today Lily?" Lily looked up at me, pancakes falling out of her mouth, smiling like a dork. "Guess I'll be getting tattooed again today." I told my mom and right before she was gonna take the dishes to the sink, my phone started to ring...
