Chapter 8

The next day I woke up in Sebastian's arms. He stayed with me all night. I'm so grateful for him. He is truly one hell of a butler. I rubbed the sleep from my eyes yawning. I looked up at sebastian with sleepy eyes.

I mumbled, "Sebastian good morning."

He smiled, pulling me closer to him, "happy birthday mistress."

He lifted me so I was on my feet. I had to get ready for the day because I had a couple of friends coming over. There was Shane, Nick, Selena, Alysia, Austin, and Cody. They would be coming around 10:00 am. I looked at Sebastian. "Sebastian what time is it?"

He pulled out his trusty pocket watch, checking the time, "it is 9:45."

I tried walking over to my closet as fast as I could but winced in pain, stopping in my tracks, leaning on my left ankle. Sebastian walked over to me putting his hand on my shoulder helping me over to my closet, he pulled out my leggings, a shirt, and my signature ballet flats. He knew me so well. He knows I don't particularly like dresses. He quickly but carefully helped me change. I blushed when his gloved hand brushed over my skin. He noticed and pulled back slightly, I reached out and grabbed his hand gently, telling him it was okay. He nodded and continued helping me. He finished helping me get dressed. He then started to brush my long hair out, leaving it down. Once he was done he helped me get used to my sprained ankle. We walked around my room for a bit until I could walk by myself with a slight limp. We left my room and down to the living room.

"Sebastian what time is it?" I asked.

Sebastian checked one more time, "it's 9:59."

Ciel entered and saw I was up and walking. "Happy birthday sister. How does it feel to be sixteen?"

I smiled, "I still feel the same. No change at all."

Before he could say anything else the doorbell rang. Tanaka went and opened the door and in came my group of friends. Shane, nick, Selena, Alyssa, Alex, and Cody.

Selena ran to me and hugged me. She's visually impaired and just amazing. She's also my best friend and sister. She has black hair and brown eyes. She's stunning. She's beautiful and just amazing. I can tell her anything. I pulled back from the hug, "I've missed you so much sis!"

"Alice I missed you! Happy birthday by the way sis."

Alex and Alyssa walked over and wished me happy birthday. Alex had light skin, blond curly hair, and blue eyes. Alyssa had tan skin, brown eyes, and dark brown hair. They were a thing now. I remember when they were both shy and wouldn't talk to each other about it and now look at them. They are so adorable together.

Cody walked to me and gave me a big hug. "Happy birthday Alice." Cody and I have been friends forever. His parents had worked with my parents. Cody has had a crush on me for a long time and has asked me out sometimes. I told him no because of our friendship and dating could ruin that. He understood that. So we're friends still.

Shane is muscular and basically one of my closest guy friend. He is always there me, he protects me when needed. He's just a great friend. He doesn't hug that much, "Happy birthday Alice!"

Nick ran towards me, picking me up and spinning me around. He set me down, I looked up at him. He was only a foot taller than me. I was 5'1. I looked up at him giggling. He looked down and smiled, "Happy birthday, birthday girl." Nick was basically like my older brother, he was protective, loving, and caring. He would never let anything or anyone hurt me.

I smiled at all my friends, "Well let's go outside into the garden and have tea."

We all went out to the garden, there were many beautiful flowers all over the place, the smell was sweet like honey and this was my favorite place to be. We all sat underneath a a big apple tree on a blanket. We all sat there chatting. Alyssa and Alex suddenly stood up.
