Jack's Little Sister

Part twenty one

I carried on messaging grace about her and mason and after the long boy conversation the subject finally changed to my birthday. It was my 20th birthday on Friday and I didn't have anything planned. It wasn't unusual as I haven't done anything for a birthday in years but grace insisted that we had a party or something just anything this year.

As I was texting grace I realised that Phil might not know if it was my birthday soon. I mean he knew I was 19 and turning 20 but that doesn't mean he knew when. Phil was on his phone leaning on the kitchen counter and I wanted to see if he actually did know my birthday just out of curiosity.

"Got any plans for Friday?" I asked him. "Yeah I do actually" he said as he looked up making eye contact with me. "What you up to?" I said. "I will be spending the day with my gorgeous girlfriend" he said and i couldn't help but smile. "Any specific reason why?" I said. "Not really" he said and my smile became less of a smile and more of a frown.

He walked towards me and wrapped him arm and me pulling me into a side hug as he laughed. "What's funny" I said. "I know what your doing babe" he said still laughing. "What are you on about". "Yes I do know it's your birthday on Friday and yes I do know that's what your trying to see if I know" he said. "No I was not" I said and he gave me a weird look. "Ok maybe I was a little" I said and we both started laughing.

"How did you know" I asked. "Because your my girlfriend how could I not know your birthday" he said. "Well grace wants me to have a party but i don't know" I said. "Why not i think you should" he replied. "I haven't spoken to any of my home friends in ages and if they come it's just gonna be awkward" I said. "You don't have to invite them just invite your close friends and your mates with the lads at training so you can invite them" he said.

Phil was right I should just invite my close girls and most of the lads at work I get along with them like they're my brothers and it will be a laugh. Me and Phil talked for about an hour about it and he said that he would talk to grace and they would sort it all out and that I didn't need to worry which I was so greatful for. We spoke for ages when finally I went upstairs to get my stuff as I needed to go home.

I grabbed my bag and threw on my clothes from the day before just to go home in before coming back downstairs to phil. "babe i need to go but I'll call you later" I said as I walked over to him. He wrapped his arms around my waist as I kissed him softly which lasted longer than I intended it to. I pulled away and phil still had a tight grip around my waist not letting me go. "Phil get off" I said jokingly as I pushed him away and we both laughed.

I said goodbye again as I walked out of his house and seen grace waiting for me outside. We had driven to phils house in his car so I didn't have mine and grace said she'd take me home and she was now coming to my place so we could do more planning for my birthday party. We arrived at my apartment and I went to get changed into some clean clothes and grace sat on the couch on her phone.

We both sat and talked and planned for hours and we ordered some food and watched some you tube. My phone was may face down on the coffee table when I heard it vibrate. I picked it up and seen a message from "mum❤️" I spoke with my mum regularly and my dad but my dad was a bit more busier and had less time to talk.

Mum : hey mills, me and dad have missed you and jack loads xxx
Millie : hey mum, we've missed you both so much too xxx
Mum : and we've not forgotten about your birthday we've got your presents and was wondering when your not busy so we can come see your new place and bring them xxx
Millie : awh thanks mum and I'm not busy on wednesday you can come then if you can xxx
Mum : of course and we're looking forward to meeting phil xxx
Millie : oh yeah I'll ask him to come if he's not busy with training xxx

As soon as I read the text message about Phil I got a nervous feeling in my stomach. "Oh my god" I said which I didn't even mean to say out loud. "What, what's wrong?" Grace asked as she turned to face me. "My mum was telling me she wants to come see me with my dad to see my new place and give me my birthday present and she wants to meet phil" I said. "Awhh that's so cute" grace said. "I haven't even told her I'm with him yet how does she even know" I said.

"Well jack probably told her you know what he's like" grace said and I agreed. "But I've not even told Phil what if he's busy what if he-". "Millie shush" grace said. "Your overthinking things look phil is gonna meet you parents hes gonna love them they're gonna love him and then it will be all good" she said. "Ugh I know but I can't help it I overthink everything" I said. "I know" she said and we both laughed.

"What if I just ask him to come round and then my parents come" I said. "Millie you cant not tell him it might make him feel uncomfortable if they just show up do you know how nerve wrecking it is for a boy to meet a girls parents" she said. "Yeah I know it's just tha-". "Here I'm gonna leave now cause I need to now go find a outfit for your birthday and it's getting late anyway and you can call Phil and just let him know that you parents are coming to visit and ask him how he would feel about meeting them"

I agreed with her and decided I was gonna call Phil. "Right well I need to get going now anyway so make sure you do call him and then let me know how it was" she said. "Yeah I will thanks grace". "No problem" she said as she walked over to the front door. "Byee love ya" she shouted back to me. "Love ya drive safe" i shouted back and then I heard my door shut.

I don't know why I'm so nervous about all this but I just was. I sighed and then picked up my phone again and went onto phils contact.

Millie : babe? xx
Phil : yes princess :)
Millie : you got time to call? I need to ask you something xx
Phil : course I have xx

As I read his text message I swiped off "messages" and opened my face time log as I pressed his name and heard it ring waiting for him to pick up...
