Hey chapter 2 at the ready!
Recap (in case you can't remember the previous chapter) – Poppy had to say her goodbye to Freddie although she didn't want to. Then she and the girls hit the road to Malibu!
Anyways read and review!
After leaving the airport we caught a cab to go back home. When the girls gave me a funny look I explained to them that I wanted them to get the real LA experience and not the one hidden by the tinted limousine windows.
"Are you ready girls?!" I said as we were turning the corner to my house.
I watched as they stared out of the window excited and eager to see where they would be staying for the next 3 weeks. Seconds later we pulled up outside the house.
"Wow!" That was all I got from the girls as they stared at the house.
It feels good to be home and I can't wait to see Molly again. I was only able to talk to her a couple of times at weekends and I have missed her a hell of a lot.
They reminded me of when I first moved there quite a long time ago, I felt like a princess running around all the rooms deciding which one would be mine and then ever so sweetly Molly chose the room opposite mine even though it was the smallest.
We got out of the cab and grabbed our luggage.
"Come on girls there's lots to do!" I told them and headed to the house dragging my luggage behind me. They quickly followed and I grinned with excitement and the things I had planned.
I got to the door and was about to knock when it swung open and Molly bundled into me screaming "Poppy your home! I missed you."
I laughed and dropped my luggage to wrap her in a bear hug.
"I have missed you so much Molster, even cutting your crusts every morning even if I'm already late," I let go of her and took a step back to look at her properly. "Still the same little sis I left behind, just a bit taller."
I then realised the girls were waiting behind me.
"Oh guys, this is my little sister Molly," I told them and they all said hi to her. "And Molly this is Kiki, Josie, Drippy and Kate."
I pointed them out to her as I went through their names.
"As long as there not like Ruby, she was a horrible cow," She said screwing her nose.
"No they're nothing like Ruby, you'll love them and don't say stuff like that," I told her.
"You do!" She said back.
"I'm older though," I said smiling.
"Okay I guess you guys are alright then," Molly eventually turned and said to the girls.
I don't know when Molly became so overprotective. Maybe she always has been and I just haven't noticed or have just been too caught up in myself to notice. She did always say that Ruby was a lousy friend at any rate.
Cough.
I turned around and speak of the devil Ruby was standing there. I watched as her eyes travelled over me and then the girls.
"Poppy…Sweetie. I'm so glad you're home. What are you doing with these skanky losers? Come on I know some great shoes you could buy and I could borrow?" She said. I was nearly fuming. How dare she insult my friends like that?
Okay deep breath I can't go totally skitzo on her arse I thought to myself.
"First things first, they are not skanky losers, you are. And they are better friends than you could ever dream of being you were nicer to my shoes than you were to me. So I think you should leave before I open a can of whoop ass on your last season prada boots." I said hoping she would get the picture. Even looking at her now I don't know how she was my best friend.
But its okay cus now instead of one shit friend I have four amazing ones. Amazing how life works out hey?
"You'll regret this Poppy Moore," She said flicking her hair and storming off.
Nope I definitely and positively wont I thought to myself.
"Come on lets chuck our stuff upstairs and then we are going out!" I told them.
We slowly made our way upstairs due to the fact we were lugging our suitcases up and the girls had wanted to stop ever 5 seconds to check out every little detail of the house.
When we eventually go to my room I sighed with relief and collapsed on the bed panting, soon I was joined by the girls until we caught our breath.
"I love your room poppy, it's like a princess's," Kate said admiringly.
"Now all she needs is her prince charming a.k.a. Freddster to whisk her away and…" Drippy started.
"Jennifer Logan if you say one more word this pillow will make contact with your head, and not in a nice way!" I threatened jokingly to drippy using her full name.
"Oooh I'm so scared!" She said pulling a face and laughing.
"That's it!" Soon a major pillow fight started and the winner being Kiki in the end. She always wins our pillow fights.
We didn't make too much mess; well not as much as we did on the plane anyway.
"Sorry girls it's too late to go out now but how about we do that tomorrow instead and watch a film for now?" I told them.
"What were the plans anyway? You never told us?" Josie asked.
"It's a surprise!" I told them smiling. "And I'm not telling!"
"Fine but only because I know we will never get it out of you," Kate said smiling.
So instead we put on Grease. I know its old but it's a classic and you can't beat it can ya?
I also made us some popcorn (not the microwavable ones) for us to munch on. Over the years I have perfected my popcorn making skills, it was the one thing on my diet I would eat that was carby and sugary. Well you can't watch a good film without popcorn as me and Molly always say.
"Go grease lightning your…" We were soon belting out.
I realised I had definitely chose the right film. Everyone was up and dancing and singing whenever a song came on, it was great and my chest hurt from laughing so much by the end.
When the film eventually finished Josie was already asleep and the others were nearly there so I turned the television and DVD player off and went and sat on the stairs to ring Freddy.
Soon I was listening to a ringing sound with my phone pressed against my ear. I checked my watch and it was only 10 o'clock so he should be up.
A couple of rings later I heard his voice. "Hey trouble." I could instantly tell I had woken him up.
"Hey sorry I didn't mean to wake you I thought you would be up," I told him hoping he wasn't mad I hadn't called earlier.
"Be awake? Its 3 in the morning," He said. Shit I forgot…
"Shit I forgot the time difference. I'm sorry do you want me to go?" I said feeling really bad.
"Nope I want you to stay right where you are and tell me how your day has been." He said. Aaaw he is so sweet sometimes aint he? Even though I woke him up at 3 in the morning, even I would be pissed if I was him. I get grouch when I don't get enough sleep,
"It's been great, the girls love it here. We haven't really done much yet though just watched a film and chilled." I told him.
"What film?"
"Grease!" I said laughing.
"Typical I bet that is one of your favourite films." As he spoke I could almost see the smile on his face.
"Yep!" I replied. Amazing how he already knows me so well.
We started chatting endlessly until we started asking each other random questions.
"What's your favourite flavour ice cream?" he asked. After we had already spent endless hours finding out random things about each other.
"That's easy mint chocolate chip!" I replied. "When's your birthday?"
"13th April. Now to get to some more serious questions." I could hear him smiling if that's even possible. "Poppy Moore would you like to be my girlfriend? Like officially?"
Oh my gawd! I can't believe he just asked that or that he even needs to ask of course I will. I have never had a boyfriend officially just guys I have got with and that.
"You don't have to say yes, I mean I wont be offended, we could just carry…" he started.
"Shut up and let me speak," I told him smiling down the phone. "I would love to be your girlfriend."
"Good!"
"Shit Freddy it must be morning there by now. Its 2 in the morning here so that makes it 7 in England. You should have told me!" I said shocked.
"I don't mind, you get to be trouble. Being tired for a day is worth it when I get to talk to you for a night."
Aaaw he is the best boyfriend ever!
Eventually I said goodbye and curled up in bed and fell asleep with only happy thoughts buzzing through my head.
