Ella listened to her computer make weird noises before Timmy's face popped up on the screen, grinning madly. Ella let out a small scream in joy.

"Your face! It's right there!" Timmy burst when he saw her grin appear. Ella reached out and touched the screen, she knew she had to be grateful that she could see him but she couldn't help but want to hug him.

"Why don't we do this more often?" He grinned, putting his face close to the camera as if it made him closer. He stuck his tongue out while Ella swung around on her desk chair, they were both happy to see each other.

"Because neither of us have time, time zones are a thing" He laughed. Ella just wanted to watch him, he looked so beautiful on FaceTime which was hard for anyone to achieve.

"Oh yeah, it's day time for you" Ella noticed the lift coming through the camera, she looked outside her window at the ten o'clock night and then back at his smiling face.

"It's just gone five here, I've had to kick out Matt so we could talk" Timmy made an awkward face which made Ella giggle.

"I've banished Lexie to the living room" Ella agreed, Timmy couldn't help but laugh at how she spoke.

"Banished, I like the way you say that" he laughed, Ella was slightly offended so she spun around in her chair.

"Banished" She said it again, Timmy felt like he was on cloud nine talking to her. He leant his head on his palm and just watched her.

"What's your favourite word?" Timmy asked, "wait no, favourite non-english word" he pointed at her as if putting her on the spot. Ella ran a hand through her hair as she thought but then it came into her head.

"I love the Spanish word for heart; corazon" she did her best Spanish accent, Timmy's eyes widened.

"Spanish? You pick a language I can't speak!" He burst which made Ella laugh hard. "Corazon" he repeated her and nodded.

"Spanish is sexy" Ella pointed out, Timmy became even more offended and lifted his head from his palm.

"So is French and Italian. Of which I both speak." He leant in closer to the computer to try and feel closer to Ella. She was sat back in her desk chair just grinning at him. "Favourite French word or phrase" he threw at her.

"Tu me manques" she said without hesitation, Timmy sat back in his chair. He was bursting with happiness, he loved the way she spoke French and the fact that she had just told him she missed him in French.

"I miss you?" He didn't believe that was her favourite french phrase. She bit her lip slightly, she didn't know how to word her next sentence.

"Well, the literal translation is 'you are missing from me' which is so much more heartfelt and beautiful than 'I miss you'" she shrugged, becoming embarrassed all of a sudden. Timmy just wanted to kiss her.

"Tu me manques aussi" he said in his stunning french accent. Ella just melted at his words, she was still melting when Lexie burst through the door.

"Lexie!" Ella was shocked by her arrival, so much so she stumbled on her spinning chair.

"Sorry were you guys having phone sex or something?" She smirked, knowing it would embarrass Ella either way. Ella just stuttered on her words so Lexie took that as a no.

"What do you want?" Ella rolled her eyes once she caught her tongue again.

"Nothing, I just wanted to say hi." She turned to the screen and waved at Timothée who was looking concerned through the screen. "Hey Timmy" she grinned.
