Bonfire Heart

Chapter Four

I open my eyes the following morning to see the sun peeking through my window. The rays of the light givers shine progress through my glass shield. It's such a lovely feeling waking up knowing I'm back where I belong. Im back here in my beautiful home town. Well.. village.

I'm not 100% sure what's actually going on at the moment. My mum swaps and changes her mind faster than the weather does and that's saying something. One minute she doesn't want to paint the living room cream, then she does. Next minute she wants to decide on what to do with my room, then she just decides that I'm going to do it all instead. I've never met someone as confusing as her in my whole life. I just can't keep up!

"Perrieee?" She yells from the kitchen. It's a good job I wasn't asleep.

"What?" I snap back. Although I was partially awake, I was still in the dream stage and nothing annoys me more than when people wake you from your slumber. Like, just don't do it!?!

"Are you still in bed?"

"Yes... Why?"

"I suggest you hurry up and get ready. I'll have breakfast waiting on the table for you in 10 mins so chop chop!"

Wait, what?!

"What?! Where are we going?!"

"B&Q! We're going looking at different colour schemes to run throughout the house! I also need to look at different pipes and heating systems!"

Of course, she can't keep the old ones..

"What if I'm not ready?"

"I'm going in 20. If you're not ready I'll just leave without you!"

I don't think I've ever moved so fast in my life! I hastily jumped onto the ridiculously cold floor and took a quick glance at my once again bare room. It depressed me and I really did need to push on forward with decorating plans. Whilst we're browsing the shop today I'll have to take a look at different options and styles, even though I have a rough idea of what I would like anyway.

I hoped into the shower and let the water run all over my body. Hot showers in summer are horrible, so I turned the dial to freezing and let the feel on the water take over my body. It felt lovely to be cool again. I quickly washed my hair and rinsed.

Once I was out of the shower and dried my hair and picked out my outfit in a hurry. I had chosen my blue denim dungarees which had little rips in, on purpose. I had a black cropped top to go with it, along with a black belt around my waist to compliment the tops colour. I then had my black pumps on with a simple pair of plain black socks. I loved this outfit it was stylish but summery at the same time.

I hopped into my outfit and started drying my hair. It had basically already dried once I was in my clothes because of the warm weather but I gave it a quick blow of the heat just to finish it off. I quickly straightened it and popped my sunglasses on my head to keep my hair off my face. Once this was done I charged into the bathroom to brush my teeth and apply a little mascara. I was then ready.

I flew down the staircase and saw my mum in the kitchen grabbing water out of the fridge.

"I'm here I'm done I did it!!" I said rapidly fast.

She just handed me the water and smiled. Phew

Guess I'll just have to pick up some breakfast somewhere whilst we're out.

Now to go and explore the wonderful world of decorating.. Yay!

Sorry this is a really short chapter!!
