Soldier

Chapter 1

Trixie's POV:

It was January 5th. I got up pretty late, around 11am or so (not that it's anything unusual). I looked through twitter as I sipped my coffee on the couch, most of my friends were still out of town with their families for the holidays so this past week has been boring as fuck. I didn't have any gigs because as far as I knew I was going to spend the holidays in Milwaukee but my flight got cancelled due to a snow storm and I was too lazy to re schedule. I tiredly looked up at my Christmas tree and decided that maybe today I would take it down, But suddenly I remembered one person who was back from seeing their family.

I eagerly waited for my boyfriend Brian to answer the phone but I was very disappointed when it went to voicemail. "Hi you have reached the phone if Brian McCook, please leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can, Byeeeeeeeeee". I cleared my throat and then left him a message, "Hey babe it's Bri, I know we haven't seen each other sense before Christmas so I wanted to see if you wanted to meet for lunch today and then hang out at my house. Text me and let me know. Love youuuu"

Un Like most couples Brian and I didn't live together. We have been best friends for a while and have always had crushes on each other but this summer when  I got back from filming allstars we realized how much we missed each other and finally made are relationship official, we just haven't gotten around to moving in together yet. I eagerly waited for Brian to text or call back, I knew he would say yes because he never says no to anything that involves us together.

Finally at around 1:00pm I got a text back from Brian, " I need to come to your house at 4:00, I need to talk to you about something important"  I was slightly concerned because it was very brief for a text from Brian and almost seemed kind of rude. I panicked at the words "something important", what if Brian wanted to break up, what if it's something worst?! I calmed myself down and then decided sense I had till 4:00 that I would order in some food and work on my second album.

Katya's POV

I've sat alone in my room with all the blinds closed for the past two weeks, isolated. Two weeks ago today I put my phone under a couch pillow downstairs, I haven't gone near that couch sense and I didn't want to. I wanted an escape and I got one, these past two weeks had been two of the most stress free weeks of my life and I was so happy and relaxed. Unfortunately I knew it had to come to an end, I was an adult and I have responsibilities, I had my first gig in nearly a month the following night. I slowly made my way down the stairs towards the couch.

I cringed when I felt my cold phone under the pillow. I just stared at it for a few minutes and then held down the on button to turn it on. After about 20 seconds my home screen flashed with what looked like a million notifications. As I read through some of the tweets on my home screen I quickly felt bad about making my fans worry about my absence. I decided to post a picture of the last time I was in drag and explain my absence, "Hey everybody! It's Katya, I'm so sorry I have been in active these past few weeks. I was in Boston spending time with my family for the holidays and didn't have any time to post. I hope you all had a lovely Christmas or whatever you celebrate and had a good new year. I promise that I'll be back to posting at my normal rate, love you all!".

I felt bad about lying to all my friends and fans that I was in Boston but I knew that this break was what was best for me. I checked my texts and responded to a few and then looked through my voicemail. My newest voicemail was from Brian. I listen to it and decided that I wanted to be left alone but I knew that it would upset Brian. In These past two weeks I realized that I have been meaning to tell Brian something and I needed to do it asap. I sent him a brief text and then sat on my couch and meditated to mentally prepare myself for what I was going to tell him tonight.
