Stepping Out Of The Spotlight (Ticci Toby x reader)

ᎰᏫᏌᖇ

The sun shines in my eyes as I wake up in my extra soft down feather bed. My body is not in pain for the time being in the position i slept in.

I look at the time and pry myself off of my bed, throwing the duvet off of my legs. I swing my legs over the edge and my toes are tickled by Juliet who sleep next to my bed.

"Juliet please move" I ask the hound giving me puppy eyes. I sigh and slide myself down my bed painfully and make my way to my bathroom where my clothes for the day are on the counter.

I brush my teeth and get dressed. My clothes a lot more casual than yesterday, meaning today is filming or rehearsal for one project or another.

"Starlight can you come down for breakfast?" Paul calls up to me, my room is the only one on the small third level of the house.

"Yes. I'm just pulling shoes on." I yell back and stretch on the window sill. Outside the sun is just rising, the birds singing a small song to wake up the woods in the surrounding area.

I find myself looking at the spot I saw the flash the previous night. The grasses and weeds are slightly flattened as if something lied on them.

Curiosity grew in my chest and I lean as far as I can against the window without being smooshed against the glass.

"Miss what are you doing?" Amy questions with humor lacing her voice. My position amusing her.

"I thought I saw an eagle. I was wrong it was just a hawk." I flash my fake smile and she buys it.

"That's very interesting miss. But Paul needs you for breakfast, please don't keep him waiting today." Amy smiles and leaves down the stairs.

I sigh looking outside once again before brushing my hair and braiding it to keep it out of the way. After I have made sure everything is perfect I make my way downstairs to see a light breakfast on the counter.

"Ah Starlight! It's good to see you this morning!" Paul smiles and kisses my cheeks like he has done every morning since I was six.

"Good morning Paul." I smile at him.

"Starlight we are going on a little trip, Amy packed your bag." Paul gestures to the bowl of specialty yogurt.

"Where are we going?" I dare to question.

"Just to do some filming for your next movie. Well only be gone a week if you get everything done on schedule." Paul smiles.

"Oh course." I nod and sit.

"Well have to take a few trips anyways." Paul mutters. I pretend not to hear and silently eat my yogurt.
