“‘have you dropped any teasers for your next album?’” Billie read out the comment with narrowed eyes before giggling quietly to herself. “Guys, that completely defeats the point of a teaser,” she said just above a whisper. She had to be quiet today because of the sleeping girl in her lap.

Billie had promised to go live, but Flora had been sick all week and had fallen asleep with her head resting in Billie's lap. Billie just didn't have the heart to move her. Her poor girl had been so exhausted lately.

She continued reading comments to herself until she came across one worth saying out loud.

“Is Flora there?” she mumbled softly, smiling.

“Yes, she is... but we have to be really quiet,” she whispered dramatically, pressing a finger to her lips to shush everyone, as if they could somehow make noise through the screen. Then she gently tilted the camera down towards Flora. Billie couldn't help but snicker to herself at how adorable she looked, curled up asleep while thousands of people were watching the livestream.

But then, as if on cue, Flora began to stir from the three-hour nap she'd taken.*
