I smiled as I opened one of my eyes. A fresh smell of waffles and pancakes spread throughout the house reminding me of today's date. September the 16. My birthday.
Pulling the cover of my body, I slowly started to get out of bed, I mediately connected to the cold floor under my feet, spreading a shiver down my spine, making me even more awake.
Standing up, I looked over my room. A disaster and half. The four sleeping bags were lying on the floor, playing cards and monopoly put to the side not extremely tidied up. My laptop was on the ground the discord app opened. I smiled. Maybe it was a disaster, a disappointing thing to see for a Virgo born today, but it only remembered me of the day before when I and my friends celebrated my last day being seventeen.
My tummy growl as the smell of pancakes and waffles once again hit my nose. Figuring that being hungry is not an extremely good way to start the day, my legs started to move, moving away from the mess and finding their way to the door and following the smell of the food.
Opening the door made an alarm for the others and I immediately heard quiet chatting in the kitchen. Smiling to myself I slowly entered the kitchen.
The moment when my foot set in the kitchen balloons and sparkles were set into my face, making me froze in place, small giggles escaping my mouth.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!" Opening my eyes, I was met with my four best friends and my family, smiling at me. I was smiling like crazy as my mother got to me giving me a soft and lovely hug.
"My baby girl grew up... I can't believe it. It feels like I first hold you in my arms yesterday and look at you today. Already grown up, beautiful and caring."Mom said as she looked at me already on the brink of tears.
"Mom don't cry. I'm still here. I won't be going anywhere." I said as I smiled at her.
"Well, you can't be sure about that. Maybe there's going to be a guy that you will like and you will go away." I rolled your eyes smiling at mom.
"In their dreams. Never ever. I'm okay being single. Don't want to ruin my first day being 18." My mom smiled as she steps aside.
"Well 18 or not, boys need to be the first one to wish you a happy birthday in this household." I smiled as my brother steps forward.
"(Y/n)..."
"Nick."
"Happy Birthday. I bought you a small gift, not too much not too little as you like it. " He said as he handed me a black sketchbook.
"Bought it in Italy last month. As much as you like drawing I think it will be just the right one for you. I smiled as ai gave my brother a big hug.
"Thank you, Nick. I couldn't wish for something more." He smiled as he steps aside Jack and Lucas coming forward.
"Sretan ti rodendan (Y/n)!" I smiled at Lucas.
"You Croatian blood is showing Lucas."
"And I am not ashamed to show it." He said as he walked to me hugging me.
"Happy Birthday (N/n). " I smiled returning the hug. He pulled away, handing me a bag. I looked up to him, giving him the most 'are you serious, we talk about this' look.
"It's just something, besides, my mom said she would kill me if I don't give you a small present. I looked at him with raised eyebrows. My eyes widened when I saw the things inside.
There was a James Charles makeup pallet, which wasn't the lowest price in here. In the bag was even a DanTDM hoddie with a small pocket from Pandora. I looked up at Lucas with wide eyes.
"You bastard. I told don't use so much money."
"That's my mom, she was angry with me for only buying you the DanTDM hoddie, she said if you are my best friend for 8 years I should do something." I smiled at him softly hitting his head.
"You and your family. Btw say hi to your mom for me." He smiled as he stepped away Jack coming forward.
"Happy BD (N/n)! Sadly I don't have a gift for you, but me, Jackey and Elley decided to buy you a ticket to California." I rolled my eyes. Hugging Jack as Elley and Jackey came from behind. I pulled away from Jack as Jackey and Elley jumped on me hugging me and a half.
"Happy Birthday (N/n) we love you." Elley gave me a small bag with a small notebook and some makeup things as Jackey gave me a kiss on the cheek giving me a bag with a lovely greenish dress. I looked up at her.
"What? You are 18. You need to dress a little bit wilder." I hugged her.
The last one was my dad who smiled at me.
"Hey, dad," I said. Before he could say anything small tears came from his eyes.
"Dad don't cry, I'm still here. I'm not going away."
"I'm not crying, I'm not crying just someone is cutting onions." He said as his eyes got puffy red before he pulled me in a hug.
"My baby girl has already grown up. Already gown up." He said as he started to cry on my shoulder. I smiled at him, giving him an even better hug.
"Dad like I said, I'm not going anywhere. I'm staying here." He noted his head before pulling me away, smiling at me. He patted me on my shoulder. Before I could say anything my phone buzzed with the discord call sound. Grabbing my phone I unlocked it. I softly smiled.
Techno, who else
"Isn't it like midnight for him?" Elley said as she looked over my shoulder. I sign. God, I sometimes hate that guy. His California clock was a little bit different from the British which made my waking up at 8 am his midnight. I smiled as I answered the call.
"Hey..."
"Happy Birthday birdy. " he said as I could practically see his tired eyes.
"You should go to sleep, big man."
"Nah. I'm wide awake." I giggled as he laughed.
"It would be very rude of me to not wish my longest friend a happy birthday." He said as I listened to his not to monotone voice becoming sleepy.
"But your longest friend is not happy that you are destroying your sleeping schedule."
"My sleeping schedule was destroyed way more years before you." I smiled raising an eyebrow.
"So you are saying that a when you were younger than twelve yours was already destroyed?"
"Yeah pretty much. My ADHD is turning my life around you know?" I hummed in approval.
"Well, as much as I would love to talk to you I will have to go, have some things to do."
"So you are saying that you are leaving me?"
"Yeah, pretty much." I said as I laughed.
"Rude.."
"Go to sleep and call me in later." I said.
"Yes ma'am." He said as I could fell him practically already sleeping.
"Say Hi to your family for me. Love U."
"Love U too." He said before I hang up the call.
Turning around I looked at the seven people with me.
"All right, who wants to eat?"
