Chapter 15
(but part 16 - I think?)
A quick A/N to say:
Great great great great!
Felt like saying that. ^
Anyways, I am introducing dizzy_salvatore to this book!
A) because she's only just started reading it
B) because, well, she's in it.
As Dizzy Danielle.
:DDDDDD ok then PREMIERE CHAPPIE!
Also! I've decided to let Charlize Theron play Dizzy Danielle. Lucky her! :)
💟💟💟💟POPPY💟💟💟💟
"Oh. My. God," I muttered to myself as the limo pulled to a stop.
I'd only just got over the shock of being in a limo. That's right. I've never been in one.
Anyway, it was a sleek black one with a tv and champagne flutes and, obviously, the champagne.
As I glimpsed the crowds outside the cinema I gasped. There were so many people waiting to see me, Dan, Tom, Emma, Dizzy Danielle, whoever. There were crowds and crowds of people. Hundreds. Maybe even a thousand.
"It'll be fine," Emma smiled. "And very fun."
I nodded, unsure what to do or say.
The limo door opened and I caught a glimpse of a man in a posh black suit and hat behind it. I smiled and stepped out to lots of hysterical cheers.
I never knew I was so famous.
But then I realised Emma had climbed out, too, and was standing beside me. Oh, killjoy right?
Emma waved and walked over to some screaming fans. I grinned and walked over to another gate to say hi to people.
Standing by the rails was a few girls who were saying - well, more like screaming - my name.
"POPPY!" they screamed.
"Hi!" I said, walking over and waving.
"Can I have your autograph?" one of the girls yelled over the screams.
"Me? Why?" I asked, pleasantly surprised.
"Because you're Dan, Tom and Emma's friend," she squealed. "Duh."
She thrust out a pen and autographs book under my face and I smiled, taking the pen. I quickly scribbled my autograph:
Poppy Montgomery
(A/N: I'm gonna put a picture of Poppy's signature on the side> cos I'm that cool!)
I watched her face light up hysterically as I put the pen back on the page.
"Thanks!" she squealed happily.
"What's your name?" I asked her.
"I'm Louise!" she yelled at me.
I smiled and waved her goodbye.
Tom walked over and grabbed my hand, pulling me over to his fans that he was talking to.
"These guys want to know who I'm dating at the moment," he smiled. "How about we tell them?"
I smiled. "You can," I said.
"EVERYONE!" Tom yelled. He was unable to get everyone to be quiet (unsurprisingly) so he grabbed the microphone off the announcement man who didn't mind (I hope).
"Hi, everyone!" he said from the middle of the red carpet, into the microphone. "I'd like to make an announcement."
There was a bucketload of hushed whispers then, finally, quiet.
"I am proud to tell you that," he spoke. "Poppy Montgomery?" he looked around for me.
I stepped forward. He grabbed my hand.
"I would like to introduce you to my girlfriend, Poppy!" he cried happily and the whole crowd screamed in delight.
He smiled and Dan raced over.
"Guys, we've got to go in now!" he said excitedly.
We smiled at him and made our way through the doors, waving bye to the fans and screaming people behind us.
Once we were in, a man came up to us and showed us to our seats. They were right near the back - perfect. It was like we were little kids again and we would fight for the seats at the back.
(A/N: still do. Still do.)
"Hi, Dan!" said a woman with blonde hair from the chairs in front of us.
"Guys, this is Sophie Stuckey," he introduced us. "Hiya Soph!"
Those two got engaged in coversation whilst Tom and I laughed at the waiter as he dropped the tray. Emma was raising her eyebrows but you could see the sparkle of laughter there in her eyes.
"Tom, Emma, Dan!" came a voice from behind us.
Tom whipped round. "Dizzy!"
"And you must be Poppy," she said, beaming at me as she spoke.
"Pops, meet Dizzy Danielle," he said, smiling proudly as if Danielle was his daughter and she'd just won a prize or graduated.
"Hi there," I smiled and shook her hand.
"Hey," she replied, still beaming.
"I've got all your CDs, well, most of them," I gabbled. "You're a great singer! I can't wait to hear you perform!"
She laughed, a melodious symphony of giggles. How is it that singer's laughs are always so melodious and beautiful.
Danielle and I got engaged in coversation, but soon after the screen lit up and the film began.
❤♥❤♥DANIELLE♥❤♥❤
Poppy clung onto Tom for practically the whole film. She hates scary movies, apparently.
I laughed as the credits scrolled up the screen. Dan's name flashed up and we all squealed happily, cheering for our Daniel.
"Come on, there's vol-au-vents!" Tom smiled, and pulled Poppy off to the snacks table.
They were so sweet together.
"You like him, don't you?" Emma smiled knowingly.
"No. I have a boyfriend," I snapped. "Why are you always trying to ruin people's love lives?"
I wasn't a big friend of Emma's yet - she was still a bit new to me since her and Tom had become good friends during filming of HP.
💟💟💟💟POPPY💟💟💟💟
I glanced over at Emma and Danielle who were snapping retorts at each other right, left and centre.
"They've never got along," Tom sighed as he bit into his vol-au-vent.
"Hmm," I murmured and sipped my punch.
"Don't get too hammered. I'm nipping loo!" Tom smiled.
"You know me, always drunk," I smiled back and kissed him lightly. He walked off to the toilets.
"Days like this I want to drive away
Pack my bags and watch your shadow fade
You chewed me up and spit me out
Like I was poison in your mouth
You took my light, you drained me down
That was then and this is now
Now look at me-"
Danielle had started to sing - Katy Perry's Part Of Me.
"This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
Throw your sticks and stones
Throw your bombs and your blows
But you're not gonna break my soul
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
I just wanna throw my phone away
Find out who is really there for me
'Cause you ripped me off, your love was cheap
Was always tearing at the seams
I fell deep and you let me drown
But that was then and this is now
Now look at me
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
Throw your sticks and stones
Throw your bombs and your blows
But you're not gonna break my soul
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
Now look at me, I'm sparkling
A firework, a dancing flame
You won't ever put me out again
I'm glowing, oh woah oh
So you can keep the diamond ring
It don't mean nothing anyway
In fact you can keep everything
Yeah, yeah
Except for me
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no (away from me)
Throw your sticks and stones
Throw your bombs and your blows
But you're not gonna break my soul
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no
This is the part of me, no, (away from me)
This is the part of me, me, me, me, me, me, no
Throw your sticks and stones
Throw your bombs and your blows
But you're not gonna break my soul
This is the part of me that you're never gonna ever take away from me, no!"
After Dan, Emma, Tom (he'd come back from the toilets now), me and several others had finished dancing, we laughed and chatted.
Danielle had started singing one of her songs from her album 'Rip Me Up'.
"You thought I'd come running back
After what you did
You thought that I'd come swinging back
Even though I had a chance to live
You ripped me up,
You tore me down
You took my luck
And swirled me around and around and around, oh yeah
What you gonna do?
Yeah, I've left you
There's no running back
I don't love you, too
And there's no chances anymore
You threw your last chances out the door
I don't know what to do!
But I know I'm without you."
Danielle carried on singing, belting out the song as if she were singing the story in it as if it had happened to her.
After the song, Danielle stepped off the stage and down to us.
"That was amazing!" I squealed.
She laughed and grabbed the glass of punch that Dan was holding out for her.
This night was already the best in my life, and it had hardly even begun.
