ANNOUNCEMENT: hello everyone!! sorry for not updating in forever. ive been really busy with school lately so my update schedule is horrible. if updates take a while im very sorry. now to the story:)

ryan pov:
i wake up at 6am and got straight out of bed to get ready. i was just wearing a pair of black pants and a white shirt because i was planning to change before leomies little surprise party.
i put my shoes on and ran down stairs and out the door. i got into my car and drove to the nearest store. i got out of the car and walked into the place. i grabbed the cutest party supplies and payed for them. i walked back to my car with the bags and drove to the mall to get there when it opens. i got to the mall and looked around 'what should i get?' i thought. then an idea came to mind. since leomie loves my earrings im gonna make us a pair of matching ones. i got to the place and chose all the stuff i needed. once i finished i payed then went to a couple other stores for smaller things. like plushies, skin care, some makeup she's been talking about, and some snacks.
i walked out with all my bags and got to my car and drove back home. my plan was to decorate our house, have leomie come over because we need help or something, then boom surprise party.

i got back to my house and unloaded my car and walked inside. i set all the bags down on the kitchen counter and grabbed the decorations. i blew up balloons, hung streamers, and tapped a happy birthday banner to the wall. when i finished the door bell rang. i ran to the door and on the floor there was a cake box. i forgot i ordered a cake last night. "oh perfect." i said to my self. i went back to the kitchen and put it in the fridge for later.  i packed her gift up and wrote a little note.

dear leomie,
Happy 20th birthday to the nicest girl in the world. im really happy i met you and i wish we can be friends forever. you've made me so happy and i've had so much fun with you. i hope 20 treats you well and that we have many years together in the future.

i wasn't as long as leomies letter but i hope she'll like it. i put the letter in an envelope then in the bag and went to go wake up the boys. once all the boys were awake and ready i gave each of them a hand full of confetti to throw because confetti poppers are to loud. and leomies is scared of loud noises. i told them the plan. "ok ima go grab leomie one of yall record ok." i said then going out the door.

i woke up the the sound of my alarm then checked my phone. '8:30, august 16th'  yay it's my birthday... i've never really done anything for my birthday because my parents always argued or were drunk but they always made sure to go to the nearest store, buy 1 cupcake, stick a candle in it, and have me blow it out after they sing. it was small but it i loved it. i got out of bed and headed to my bathroom to take a shower. before getting in i played music from my phone. my shower concert was interrupted by me almost slipping and falling on my butt so i took that as a sign to hurry up and get out. i turned off the water then wrapped my self in a towel before walking out. i stepped in front of the fogged up mirror and wiped away the condensation then stared to get ready. i did skin care first then started to brush and dry my hair. continuing my concert from earlier o used the hair brush as a microphone and sang along to the music. once my hair was dry i lightly curled it then did my makeup. (like erika titus's makeup(i love it)) i went to my closet and picked out a cute outfit.

i walked down stairs to see taters stretching in his bed. "well good morning taters!" i said going up to him and letting him. "how about i get you something to eat?" i said the his tail started wagging. i went over to the kitchen and scooped up some of his dry food and put it in his bowl. i walked to the fridge and grabbed my self a bottle of water. i opened it then drank some and walked the couch. i turned on the tv and watched a cooking show while scrolling through my phone. it was peaceful until i heard the doorbell ring multiple times. i got up with my phone and answered the door. "hello?" i said. oh it was ryan. "oh ryan what do you need?" i asked. "hey leomie can you come with me real quick we need help at the house." he said. "oh yeah sure." i said grabbing my keys. "bye taters be good." i said kneeling down kissing his head. ryan grabbed my hand and dragged me out the door. "it's like really serious." he said. "what happened?" i asked worried. "you just have to see it your self." he said then opened the door. i walked in and got hit with confetti falling from the sky and a loud. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" from the boys. i picked confetti from my hair. "wow thanks guys."i said. "ok lets eat cake now im starving." regie said. we shared a quick laugh then went to the table and sang happy birthday. i blew out my candles and handed out cake to the boys. ryan left then came back with a gift. "happy birthday leomie." he said handing me the bag. "oh thanks ryan." i said with a smile. i opened the bag and pulled out plushies, skin care, some makeup, and snacks. the last thing i took out was a pair of beautiful earrings. "ryan these are gorgeous." i said looking up at him. "im glad you like them." he said. while looking at him i realized he had them too. he got us matching earrings. "wait you have them too...we're matching." i said with a big smile. "yeah."he said. "well i love them even more now." i said. i finally pulled out a card from the bag, opened it, and read it. it was a cute little note from ryan that made my eyes water. i got off my chair and hugged ryan. i stood on my tippy toes and whispered a small 'thank you' in his ear. i hugged him tightly not wanting to let go. he hugged back and we stood there for a while.

the rest of the night consisted of pictures, games, laughs, and tiktok's. the ones who were old enough to drink drank. i of course didn't drink but still had a lot of fun. this was the best birthday i could've asked for. it was getting late and we were all in the living room watching a movie that i chose. i was sitting with ryan with my head on his chest. all i could think about was how grateful i was for today and for ryan. i fell asleep thinking "what would i do if i haven't met you ryan."

a/n: hello everyone sorry for not posting on forever but here's a new chapter. i hoped you like it and leomies birthday instagram post will be in the next chapter:)
