Gotta Be You

A Not So Happy Birthday

Today was my birthday! I was so excited! I was finally turning sixteen, this was the day I have been waiting for for years! Although, I always planned it where I would have a huge sweet sixteen party with lots of friends, but that's okay, at least Niall and Louis are coming.

I rush downstairs and find my mom has already prepared a huge birthday breakfast for me- hash browns, eggs, toast, bacon, pancakes, and fruit salad.

"Thank you so much mom!" I exclaim.

"Oh your welcome sweetie, happy birthday!" she says. "After breakfast, I need you to hurry up and get dressed, I have a surprise for you."

"Okay!" I respond, already stuffing my face with food.

I hurry up and finish my breakfast, eager to find out what my surprise is. I run upstairs to try and figure out what to wear. When I open my bedroom door I find an new outfit already laid out on my bed for me.

"Thank you so much mom!" I shout from my bedroom.

I try on the outfit. Black jeans, a pink flowered tank top, and brown wedged boots, it was so me! I run downstairs to find my mom already waiting at the door for me.

"Come on Kimberly, we're going to be late!" says my mom.

"Alright, alright, I'm coming," I say as I quickly grab my phone and rush out the door. "So where are we going?"

"I told you, it's a surprise," said my mother. "Niall and Louis are meeting us there."

"Okay," I say. I really do hate surprises. It's because I'm an impatient person so it's hard to find out what the surprise is. That's why I read the spoiler alerts for books and movies and such.

Finally, after what seems like hours, we pull into a park. I see a crowd of girls gathered around a stage.

"What's going on?" I ask.

"This is your surprise party!" My mom exclaimed. "Niall set everything up!"

"Seriously?" I squeal.

My boyfriend, my boyfriend set up the perfect sweet sixteen party for me! It was exactly how I always imagined it, lots people, everyone having fun, and good music-which was Niall singing live on the stage! This is perfect!

When we pull up, I immediately jump out of the car, anxious to get into the party and to see Niall. I catch sight of Niall onstage, I quickly run over there. Once he spots me, he stops everything he is doing and points to me.

"Everybody wish my girlfriend K a happy birthday!" Screamed Niall into the microphone.

Everyone turns to me to say "happy birthday", but then quickly turn their attention back to Niall. Whatever, I think to myself, it may be my day and Niall may be getting all of the attention, but that was okay. He has done so much for me and for this party, he deserves the attention.

I decide to walk around see if I can find Louis. I see my mom sitting with Louis's mom, Mrs. Payne, and my dad talking to some guy I don't know. My parents don't really talk much since they are divorced.

I finally spot Louis sitting at a picnic bench with his arm around Cassidy. Cassidy Meyers was my mortal enemy since third grade when she tripped me in front of my crush, Harry Styles. We ended up becoming friends again just this past year, I never did find out the reason she tripped me, I'd have to ask her about that.

I walk up to them, "hey guys, thanks for coming!" I say.

"Hey Kims, no problem happy sweet sixteen," said Louis.

"Yeah, happy birthday Kimberly," said Cassidy.

I sit down talk to them for a while. After a few more songs, Niall takes a break. He comes running over to and engulfs me in a huge bear hug.
