A song that I really like is beige – Yoke Lore. So you can play it with this chapter. Or not. Choose what you like :)

August 28

We were sitting at breakfast when my phone suddenly started ringing. I looked at my phone and then at Harry.

"You can pick up." He said as if he read my mind.

I grabbed my phone and saw that Cassie was calling me. I clicked the green button and heard a song.

"Happy birthday to you," Cassie sang. A smile spread across my lips. "Happy birthday toooo you. Happy biiirthday dear JUUULIA, happy birthday tooooo you."

I looked at the boys while giggling and they all looked a little shocked. Was it because of her singing skills?

"Happy birthday Jules." Cassie said. I could hear her smiling from the other side of the phone.

"Thanks Cas."

"Okay, now, you go have a fun day. Bake a cake or something. Eat as much as you want. And uhm. I'll call you again tomorrow."

"I will." I promised.

"And when you get back, I'll give you your present."

"OH, my present?"

"Whoops, I think I said too much. Gotta go. See ya." She laughed as the line went dead.

I miss her.

"Tink?" Louis asked.

"Mmh?" I answered.

"Your birthday isn't until tomorrow, right?" He suspiciously asked.

"Yeah, it's tomorrow." I smiled.

"Why did she congratulate you now then?"

"Oh that. So, I forgot her birthday once. Well. I didn't really forget it, I just thought it was the next day. So, on her birthday, I arrived at school, and I didn't congratulate her. Which I should have. I still feel guilty about it to this day. And since then, we celebrate her birthday a day later than it actually is, and we celebrate mine a day earlier."

"Oh. Okay. I got a little scared there." He chuckled.


"Chop chop." Liam said as we all took our seats in the car.

"What kind of cake do you want?" I asked him as he opened my door and I sat down.

He walked around to the other door and sat down next to Niall.

"Uhm. What cake do you want?" he asked.

"Uhm, I mean, I love red velvet. But I don't want to force anything on you, you know." I answered.

"No, that's fine. I like red velvet too." He replied.

Louis started the car and we drove to the supermarket.

"JULES, come here!" Niall whisper shouted.

I walked over to him, and saw he was standing at all the shopping carts.

"Sit." He ordered.

"Where?" I asked.

"In there of course." He pointed to a shopping cart.

mmm. I thought about it for a second and then swung my leg over one of the shopping carts. I put the other one in there too. I sat down and sighed.

This is such a bad idea.

Niall pushed me through the whole store, and I told the boys what products we needed.
