Helpless And Helpful (A Pippa Soo Fanfic)

Chapter 17; The Cutest Pair

Pippa's POV

Jess and Eliza got back after rehearsal sweating. "I take it you were dancing today?" I asked as they ran over to the fridge to grab water. "Eliza you can use my shower if you want." I said. "Thank you so much Pippa." She ran to the shower, and Jess ran into her room to take her own shower. They came out 15 minutes later and sat on the couch." Oh no, my mom's coming to pick me up in 10 minutes for a family dinner tonight. I don't wanna leave!" Eliza said. "What no!?" Jess cried. "I'm sorry Jess." She said. They both looked really sad. Eliza got up and went to grab her stuff from Jess's room. Jess soon followed. I heard a loud noise and shouted, "Are you okay?" I heard laughing and then Jess replied, "We're great!" I rolled my eyes. There was a knock at the door 10 minutes later and I answered to see a tall woman with red hair She looked almost exactly like Eliza. "Hi! You must be Phillipa! I'm Cecelia, Eliza's mother." I smiled. "Hi Cecelia, please, call me Pippa! Eliza's a lovely girl, she's always welcome here." "From what I've heard Jess is lovely too! She can come round whenever." Jess and Eliza came running out of the room hand in hand. "Hi mom! This is Jess." Jess smiled and waved with her free hand. "Hi Jess! Come on Eliza we've got a reservation in an hour." Eliza kissed Jess on the cheek quickly and then ran to her mom. "Bye Pippa, thanks for putting up with me! Bye Jess, I love you. Text me later." The door closed and I turned to Jess. "I miss her already." She said. "You're gonna see her tomorrow. Don't worry." We both sat on the couch, trying to decide what to eat tonight. "I'm not really in the mood to cook, how about take out" I asked. She nodded. "Chinese?" She nodded again and I got up to order it. 

The food arrived 30 minutes later. We sat on the couch and watched Frozen while we ate. "Pippa. I have something to tell you." she said. I put my food down and paused the movie. "What's wrong?" I frowned. "Well while Eliza and I were waiting for you to pick us up, the girls texted me again. I don't know how they found ,y new instagram account, but they did. I deleted the app so they can't bother me though." I gasped. "Did you take a screenshot of the messages?" She nodded and showed me. "Oh Jess. I'm so sorry. If they somehow contact you again, we'll figure something out making sure there is absolutely no way they'll do it after that." She nodded and unpaused the movie. We continued to watch and eat until nearly midnight. Jess was asleep on the couch and I didn't want to wake her because she had to be up early again tomorrow, so I went and grabbed her blanket. I put it over her and left her to sleep. Before I could leave the room, I heard her phone buzzing. It was Eliza calling her. I answered. "Jess finally! I've been calling you for ages are you okay?" Eliza asked somewhat panicked. "Hi Eliza it's Pippa. Jess fell asleep, but I'll tell her to text you in the morning." "Oh hi Pippa! Okay! Also was there anyway you could pick me up tomorrow morning? My mom and dad are both working and the theatre is too far of a walk from my house." Eliza said. "Of course. Send me the address and we'll be there at 11. Goodnight!" I said. "Night, and if Jess wakes up before morning tell her I love her." I giggled before she hung up. I put Jess's phone back next to her and headed to my room to go to sleep.
