When in La Jolla

Rachet Happy Birthday

It has been a week now since being Vinnie's official girlfriend, it feels like the world is ours and nothing could go wrong. We can talk for hours and never have a dull moment. I think I might be in love with him. I'm in the kitchen looking in the fridge for a snack, Chase comes in and says hi to me. He asks what's on my mind because I have been staring into the soul of this fridge for like e3 minutes now. "Well I don't know what to get Vinnie for his birthday and it's next week. Chase, please help. What should I do?" Chase's eyes light up, "I have been waiting for you to ask me because I think I have something perfect. My recording studio also works with a lot of big artists so they gave me VIP concert tickets to see Drake this Saturday. I want to give them to you and Vinnie because I think you'll both enjoy it more." I freeze up, "Chase, you're joking right? There's no way you are telling me I get to meet DRAKE" He nods his head and waves me over to him and his laptop. He points at the screen and shows me the 2 VIP tickets, "they are all yours, I promise." I hug him and thank him for what feels like a million times. How am I supposed to comprehend that I am meeting Drake, Vinnie is going to be so excited!

I decide to buy a cake with Drake's face on it as the surprise to let him know. The concert is Saturday but his birthday is 6 days after that so I decided to let him know the night before the concert. I set a blanket up in the basement in front of the big projector. I made a little picnic full of snacks with the cake in the middle. Once everything is set up I run upstairs and tell him I need to blindfold him. He smirks at me and I slap his arm, "no it's for a surprise, you're gross!" We tie a shirt around his face and I start taking him down the stairs. It was kind of hard to guide him down each step but right when I thought we got the hang of it he tripped and fell off the bottom one. I took his blindfold off and he said, "Ratchet Happy Birthday?" I laugh and tell him sort of. We sit down and he asks what this is all about, I hand him a card and tell him to open it. He looks at me confused and slowly opens the envelope. He pulls out the two tickets and reads them. He then looks at me completely shocked, "No fucking way." "VIP for Drake baby" I feel so proud this has to be the best birthday gift I've ever gotten someone and I am a really good gift giver. He reaches over and kisses me then thanks me. We dug into the cake even though we felt bad for demolishing Drake's face.

It was the day of the concert, we had to be there at 6 for the meet and greet. I got ready around 4 because I needed time to figure out what I was going to wear. It took me an hour or so but I decided on a pink dress with tights and a leather jacket to go over it. I walked up to Vinnie's room to see if he was ready, he was wearing white cargo pants with a black polo. He looked down at me smiling, "you look super pretty, I'm so excited." I smiled and told him that he looked good too and with that we were off. It was about a 20-minute drive to the Kia venue. Thankfully VIP came with good parking so once we parked we didn't have to walk super far. We made it up to the front and walked through the metal detectors then they scanned our tickets. They gave us lanyards to put around our necks for VIP and told us which way to go. I was freaking out, life did not feel real. How am I supposed to comprehend that I am about to meet Drake, my idol, the man that has taught me everything I now know today.
