Dayn's POV:

I really can't remember how I got home yesterday. I was so caught up in my thoughts about Maisy and Autumn. I get out of my bed and head downstairs for breakfast. "Morning, zombie." Malina greets. "Morning." I greet back then I realize it's morning, yesterday was 9th August and its the next day. It's 10th August, Truth's birthday! It's just 8:30am, so Truth is not yet awake. I still have time to get to her house, make her breakfast and wish her a happy birthday. So, I get up grab my bowl of cereal and dump it in the sink, "Morning mom and dad." I great my parents who are in the kitchen Island. "Morning, why are you in such a rush?" they ask in unison. "A lot of reasons." I shout while running up to my room.
I take a quick shower. I decide to wear my black skinny jeans, my black Nike shirt and my black high tops. I grab which is thankfully fully charged and my headphones then run out of the house. I get a taxi and I tell the driver where I'm headed. It's now 8:50am, I only have 40 minutes to make Truth breakfast and wish her a happy birthday. While I'm in the taxi, I get my phone and send an invite to almost everyone on my contact list to Truth's birthday party through a text blast. I found some cool abandoned house like 4 block away from my house, so that's where the party is going to be at. Truth had no idea I'm planning this.
When I get to her house, I find Liam watching TV. "Hi Liam." I say. "Nothing much, bruh. She's still asleep." he says. "Cool, I'll be in the kitchen." I say. "Cool." he replies. Now it's 9:15am. I have 15 minutes to get this done. I make her her favorite sandwich. A beacon egg sandwich with cheese and tomatoes plus orange juice, strawberries and grapes. I walk up to her room with only 2 minutes left to 9:30am. I get into the room and wait for her alarm to ring. It finally rings and she wakes up.
"Happy 18th Birthday, you." I say. Then she says in a drowsy way, "Oh Dayn thanks." Then Liam walks into the room and we both sing in unison

"Happy, happy, happy, happy Birthday
Happy, happy, happy, happy Birthday
Everyone wants to wish you a happy birthday."

She smiles and says, "Thank you guys." in a more cheerful tone. I guess she's fully awake now. "Anyway, I can't stay any longer because I have to run a few errands. Meet me at the Hide Out later, I'll text you." I say. I call an Uber and go to the abandoned house where the party is supposed to be. I organize everything for about one and a half hours then realize I can't do this alone. I decide to call someone. Someone whose an expert at organizing such stuff. MAISY! It's the perfect excuse to hear her beautiful voice again. So I pull out my phone and speed dial her. She pick up immediately

Me: Hey Maisy

Maisy: Hey

Me: So um, I need your help with something.

Maisy: Sure

Me: But it's going to involve you coming down hill.

Maisy: Down hill! What are you doing there. That place is filled with creepy houses. But what di you need help with?

Me: You know it's Truth's 18th birthday today.

Maisy: Yeah which reminds me I'm supposed to call her.

Me: I found a really nice house and I need you help organizing the place. I'm throwing her a surprise party.

Maisy: REALLY! Why didn't you tell me sooner. I would love to help. What's the address?

Me: 567

Maisy: Cool, I'll be there. Down Hill right?

Me: Yeah thanks.

Maisy: Anytime, will be there in 15. Bye.

Me: Bye

Wow that went better than I expected. While waiting for My queen, Maisy to show up, I decide to text everyone whom invited the address to the place. "Hey." someone says and startles me. "Hey." I say. "I'm sorry I kinda delayed I had to pick my tablet from my mom's office." Maisy says. "It's cool, let's get started." I say she gives me a warm smile and says, "This is going to be fun." Her eyes sparkle when she smiles. I love that about her. We give the place a high school, senior year teenage party theme or what I like to call,'No themed Party." By the time we finish it's 5:00pm. "So, what should we do about the food?" Maisy asks. "I guess we should order pizzas, barbecue plus the sauce and turn of potato crisps plus dipping, beer cans, beer keg and lots and lots of liquor." I say. "Cool, all that will be here in the next 30 minutes ." she says. Then we sit at the stairs that lead into the living room. "While you we're speaking I typed it down and made an order on the Hide Out website." she says. "Add coke." I say. "Cool." she says.
"So what are we going to do about the music?" I ask. "I know a guy." we both say in unison. Then we chuckle. "I'll call my guy because you have done pretty much everything." she says then she giggles. "Oh My God I forg_____" she cuts me off before I can finish. "The cake, you forgot, I did not I got a mixture," she says. "Chocolate fudge on one side then red velvet on the other side. Why? Because when you turn 18 you're so confused. You don't know what to do with your life. Should you eat the chocolate fudge or the red velvet? Why not have both? I know it sounds weird, but the cake actually tastes nice." she says. "Do you get it?" she adds. "Yeah wow that's smart. She's going to love it." I say. Wow she's really intelligent. I think to myself. She gets up and walks to the middle of the living room, then calls the music guy. All she says during the conversation is, "Unha, yeah, okay, Unha, unha, okay. Thanks." right after she's done talking on the phone, the door bell rings. Then she gestures telling me to go let her go get the door, so I let her. It turns out to be the food plus the cake and the drinks. Wow she's good.
"I'm going now, I'll be back at around 7:00pm. That's if I'm invited." she says with a smirk on her face. "Of course. You're the one who put all this together. You're obviously invited." I say with a reassuring smile on my face. Then she chuckles and heads for the door. Half of her body is out of the door and while she is about to close the door, she says, "Thank you for calling me to help. This was fun." Then she closes the door. "Always." I say. I'm guessing she didn't because the door is already closed. I check for the time on my phone it's 5:40pm.
I better get home and prepare myself and pick up Truth before people start start showing up. Why did I say the party would be at 6:00pm. I think to myself. Then I get out of the house and head home.
I take a quick shower and decide to wear my black Yeezus shorts and my navy blue muscle shirt plus my black ankle old stars. I grab my jumper, my headphones and my phone, my phone and I head out. "Why are you in such a rush again?" I hear my mom shout while I'm closing the door. "A lot of reasons." I shout back when I'm now off the porch. I decide to text Truth when I'm almost reaching the Hide Out.
