"Oh!There's the birthday girl" Beck said as Katie walked down stairs.
She was wearinga black outfit and the party was dark themed(Obviously)
"Don't make a fuss over it dad." Katie said in a bit of annoyance.
"Like mother like daughter"Tori who was in her husband,Andre's embrace,said.
"So aunt Jade was like Katie"Trevor(Andre and Tori's four year old son) asked.
"Maybe a little bit worse"Robbie answered side hugging her fiance,Cat. Everyone chuckles.
"By the way where's mom? I haven't seen her around. "Katie asked looking around.
"Oh!She went to pick up Ella cause her parents were too busy to do so. "Beck explained.
"That's ridiculous. Does she even have to come. "
"Katie we talked about this."
"It's still ridiculous. Come on Trevor. Let's go have some fun with our friends before someone comes to ruin it"She said referring to Ella. Both her and Trevor leave to join their other young friends.
"Maybe she's a little worse than Jade."Robbie said as they watched the young girl leave.
"Well...At least she makes friends and not try to scare or murder them"Tori said referring to her experience with Jade.
"Wait, is Ella the girl who Jadey has been talking about. The one who looks and acts alot like you." Cat asked Beck in a less ditzy voice. (She had matured up a bit. )
"Yep. That's her. "Beck replied.
"Then why does Katie seem not to like her?"Tori asked.
"Jealousy...I guess. "Beck answered.
"That makes a lot of sense"Andre said and they all nodded in agreement.
A while later;
The gang was standing at the hall watching the kids play,when Jade enters holding Ella's hand.
"Hey babe"Jade said pecking Beck's cheek.
"Hey"Beck replied.
"And suddenly we all became invisible"Tori said trying to get Jade's attention.
"I wish"Jade said sarcastically.
"Someone hasn't changed"Tori said receiving a chuckle from all of them.
"Oh!By the way. Congrats on your engagement."Jade said motioning to Cat and Robbie who were side hugging.
"Thank you Jadey."Cat said a bit ditzy.
"You still use that name even after all this years"Jade said and then noticed Ella who was a bit uncomfortable by then.
"Oh!Uuum...guys this is Ella,the girl I've been telling you about."She said motioning to Ella who smiles at everyone.
"You are right she looks like Beck...A lot. "Andre said.

"Yeah,and she has your beautiful piercing,blue-green eyes,"Beck winked at Jade.
"Sup"Jade blushed.
"But hers are a bit more green than green."Cat giggled and everyone looked at her...Maybe she was still a bit ditzy.
"Anyway.... uuum...Ella,this is my husband,Beck Oliver."
"Oh yeah. I know him. Like,,,you two are the Hollywood power couple. "Ella smiled widely. "It's nice to meet you, Mr.Oliver"
"Nice to meet you too,Ella"Beck said and both smiled at each other.
"And these are my friends,Mr and Mrs.Harris,Mrs Valentine and Mr Shapiro.But am sure you know them. They are all super famous. "
"Oh yeah.I do"She said with a bit of a smile.
"Mom. You're late. I've been waiting for long."Katie said approaching them.
"Oh am so sorry Katie. I got caught up in traffic...But..Look who I brought with me. Katie meet Ella. Ella this is my daughter Katie. "
"Hey Katie. Nice meeting you"Ella said extending her hand.
"Can we just go and begin cutting the cake. "Katie said in annoyance.
"Katelyn!"Jade said angrily.
"Hey Ella"Katie greeted with a visibly fake smile and then drops it. "When this is done,,,,you can all meet me at the cake cutting table. "She adds and leaves from there.
"She is definitely worse."Andre whispered to Tori who nodded in agreement.
"Am so sorry for her,Ella. She's just.....like that. "Jade explained to Ella.
"It's okay I understand. "Ella said and everyone smiled at her calmness.
Moments later;
The birthday party went on well,just with a few glares from Katie to Ella. After the party,everyone left except the gang,Trevor and Ella of course.
"I think we should get going. After all the sugar Trevor has taken. He needs to visit the dentist. "Tori said to the others.
"It's okay. And thanks for coming."Beck said with a smile.
"We couldn't miss it for the world."Andre said.
"Is that a lie uncle Andre?"Katie asked and everyone looked at her.
"I think we better go"Andre says with a smile and the three leave.
Jade glared at Katie who just shrugged.
"I think we should also get going. My brother is coming back today from the psych ward and I want to be there to welcome him back."Cat said.
"Yeah!I was forced into this"Robbie said as if trying to defend himself.
"What is that supposed to mean?"Cat asked as usual.
"Nothing Babe!Uuum...I think we should get going now. Bye everyone. "Robbie said as they left the mansion.
"You know,it's not even a surprise that Robbie and Cat are engaged. They are both wierd. " Jade said to Beck earning a chuckle and a peck.
"Adults are sooo wierd"Katie said staring at them.
"So...Ella?Will your parents be picking you up or should I drop you off."Jade asked Ella.
"Uuum...About that....my parents just texted me that they had to leave home for an 'emergency'."
"Oh!A sympathy seeker"Katie said rolling her eyes and earning a glare from her parents.
"No!Am not trying to be a sympathy seeker.Am just trying to say that I can't go home."
"Where's the difference?"
"Katie?!"Jade shouted at her daughter.
"No it's okay. I just wanted to say that you should probably drop me off at my aunt's or grandparents or..."
"Or you could spend the night here"Beck said interrupting her.
"What!"Katie said in an angry and shocked tone.
"Yeah! That's a great idea"Jade said.
"Thank you, but....I don't want to be a bother. "
"You are not a bother at all"
"Of course,she is"Katie said angrily.
"We have one of Katie's oversize pajama. It can be great for you. " Jade said ignoring Katie's comment.
"Thank you"Ella said and all except Katie smiled.
