this bitch is loooong, but it's sooo good so I hope you like it.
My eyes burn from staring at the tv while the sound of popcorn popping fills my ears. Charlie told me he would spend new years with me so I wasn't so alone. I told him I would've been alright, but he insisted on staying with me because he had nowhere to go tonight.
I watch Demi Lavato sing on the 'Dick Clark New Years Rockin' Eve Special' when the popcorn is finally done. I look over to Charlie who takes it out of the microwave. In the process he burns his hand on the bag and drops on into the counter quickly. I chuckle to myself before reaching for my phone and seeing it's only ten o' clock.
Charlie has been a lot of help recently, with getting me out of london and making sure I was okay at home. I would be lying if I said I hadn't cried since I last saw Harry, but I was already getting better when Charlie was around. I took him to Beachwood Cafe and he loved it, so we decided to make it a daily thing to make sure I got out of the house at least once. He was really pushing me to do better and I appreciated it, because I knew I wouldn't do good by myself.
I see him approach me on the couch and set the bowl of popcorn on my lap.
"Thank you," I tell him, gently. He sits on the wide open spot next to me, draping his arms over the back of the couch. He puts his feet up on the coffee table right next to mine before reaching into the bowl and grabbing a handful of popcorn.
"Who was just on?" he asks as he shovels popcorn into his mouth.
"Demi," I tell him, keeping my same gentle tone as before. There was a long quiet pause before anything else happened. I knew he sensed I wasn't doing okay so he tried cheering me up.
"Wanna see a trick?" he asked me and I turned my head to look at him. He painted a small grin onto his face when he knew he had my attention.
"What kind?" I ask, mouth full of popcorn.
"A cool one, what other kinds are there?" he asked sarcastically, putting a full smile on his face as he chuckled at his own joke. I giggle back as he stands up to face me.
He reaches into the bowl and grabs one single piece of popcorn. He tossed it up, going under his leg and caught it in the air. When he successfully catches it he holds his arms up in the air in victory.
I laugh at the action, applauding him to do more.
"I can also kick it up with my foot," he states the fact to me and I widen my eyes.
"Oh, can you now?" I ask and he nods in response. "Well I'll believe it when I see it," I tell him, handing him another piece of popcorn. He takes in with a nod to me, gesturing a thank you before preparing himself for the trick.
"Get ready to have your mind blown," he tells me with a hint of cockiness in his voice. I scoff under my breath while keeping my eyes on him. He tosses the popcorn down to his foot, but before his foot could get to it, it hurts under the coffee table causing him to wince in pain and me to jump a little at the loud noise it made. I see him crash to the ground, bringing his knee to his chest and holding his toes with his hands. I couldn't help but crack a loud laugh at what I had just witnessed.
"Oh yeah, very smooth," I tell him through my laugh. I hear him chuckle a little while he keeps his nose scrunched at the pain in his toes.
"I think it works better with gum anyways," He states, trying to play it off like he wasn't going to get it either way.
"And maybe farther away from any coffee table," I add in. He laughs with me as he crawls his way up the couch, sitting in the spot next to me again. "Are you alright? Do I need to get ice for the baby?" I make fun of him.
