Chapter 10:

Last time

"Well Poppy there's no problem were going back to LA in a couple of days and that's it" Poppy couldn't believe what her father was saying how could he tear her away from the first proper friends and boyfriend she had ever had.

Poppy had continued to argue with her dad even after he said that but it was useless the tickets were booked and in a couple of days she would be flying back to LA the prospect of leaving her friends put Poppy in a bad mood and she sulked in her hotel room.

"Hey you know as soon as I can I'll come to visit you" Freddie said to her Poppy was sitting on the armchair in the room him perched on the arm.

"I know but I don't want to leave in the first place there's so many other girls you could have other than me"

"Don't worry Poppy we'll keep an eye on him" Drippy said from the bed where the whole gang was lounging.

"Yeah we'll lock him away until you come and claim him" Josie said laughing.

"Hahaha very funny" Poppy said smiling Freddie on the other hand said.

"Do you lot really think I'm that unfaithful to trouble here" he said this very seriously making the entire girls laugh even more.

"Oh Freddie we're just kidding" Josie managed to gasp out between fits of laughter.

A few days later Poppy was stood in the departure lounge of the airport Freddie with an arm around her waist and her friends all gathered around saying a last goodbye which involved a lot of tears.

"I'll miss you trouble" Freddie said hugging Poppy tightly as soon as they were alone.

"I'll miss you too promise to come over soon and introduce the fabulous chip buttie into my house" Poppy said tears were streaming from her eyes but she still managed a smile at her own pathetic joke.

"Ok then" Freddie said simply smiling as well then with one last kiss they parted.

BRINGBRINGBRING

Poppy rolled over in her sleep she had got back to LA at midnight last night and had went to bed straight away as her mobile continued to ring though she groaned and sat up brushing her brown hair out of her eyes which were still closed on another ring of the phone though she snapped them open and frantically reached for it.

"Hello" she said hearing for the British accent she had come to love but instead an excited squeal.

"Poppy babe's your back thank god" sighing Poppy fell back onto the pillow.

"Ruby what do you want"

"Oh just to congratulate you on getting off that miserable island" Poppy had heard enough though and hung up getting up she made her way to the kitchen where her sister Molly was sitting at the table.

"Hi Mol's how are you" Molly looked up and smiled.

"Yeah I'm fine I heard your phone ring who was it?"

"Oh just Ruby" Molly looked confused usually when Ruby phoned her and Poppy would talk for at least an hour but by the sound of it the conversation only lasted about 2 minutes.

"You've changed Poppy" Molly stated.

"Well you know dad was right boarding school put me straight you'd love it Molly great friends and the best boy ever"

"Oh go on" Molly said interested she had, had to stay in LA while her father went to England after the fire the only updates that Molly had got was whether Poppy was getting better other than that nothing.

"Well his names Freddie Kingston and he's the headmistresses son but we just get along so well at first we just snuck around but after the fire we came into the open and everyone's okay with it"

"Well glad you found somebody better then Rodney" Molly said making a face at the boys name Poppy laughed and said.

"Yeah I don't know what I was thinking"

"That he's a cute, irresistible and really sexy" Molly and Poppy swivelled around Ruby was in the doorway.

"Ruby what..." Poppy spluttered.

"Well babe's when you hung up on me I realised something must be wrong so I rushed straight down here and Pop's brown hair is so not in so we may want to dye that again" Ruby continued not giving ever Poppy or Molly time to protest.
