chapter 14

A few days went by and today was Colsons big radio interview. I was on my way to pick up Casey from the airport and we had alot to get done. With his birthday in the next 24 hours we had a lot to do so Emma agreed to let Casey stay with us for a week or so, as long as she got updates. So my way to do that was to send pictures. As Casey iced the cake she made for her dad I finished cleaning the house.

"Can we maybe get another cake"? She questioned and I looked over.

"Why"? I giggled and walked over. The pink icing everywhere.

"I think he'll love it". I smiled and walked back over to the living room.

A couple minutes passed and that's when Rook and Pete walked in, holding decorations. "Where does it go boss lady"? Pete asked.

"Start setting things up. I want it perfect". I smiled.

"Dont you think it's to much"? Rook asked and Pete slapped his shoulder.

"He is my bestfriend. If I have to jump out of a cake with a thong up my ass I'll do it for him". Pete said.

Both Casey and I turned slowly to look at him.

"What"?

"That might work". I said and he shook his head

"I was kidding". He said and started to take balloons out of the bags.

I looked down at my phone as Amara texted me and let me know they landed in Cincinnati. He would be home later on after midnight so we needed to get it done.

"Travis is on his way". Rook said as he showed me his phone.

"Great, he's in charge of food".

"So, how do we know half of us will be up by the time he gets home"? Pete asked as he turned to Casey.

"I had a mountin dew and some candy. I'll be fine". She smiled and continued to ice the cake.

Rook walked over to me and smiled as he grabbed my hand, looking down at the ring.

"Its going to work this time". I smiled.

He nodded. "I know it will".

"12:05, he's late". Pete said.

He had a horn party favor between his teeth and a cone party hat on.

"He's coming". Travis chuckled and pulled the party favor from Pete's mouth.

I walked over to Casey and stood next to her. She was leaning against the counter, a spoonful of icing with her.

"I don't think I can stay up". She sighed.

"Any minute babe". I said and handed get a towel off the counter so she could wipe off her face.

Kourtney walked over and smiled. "Thank you for inviting me. Ive missed you".

"I've missed you like crazy. It's been one hell of a ride lately". I said and she agreed.

"Travis told me about the ring. Are you good"? She asked.

I nodded and showed her my hand. She gasped and pulled me to the side.

"Did he find it"? She asked.

"Rook bought back from the guy who bought it from Alex's boyfriend". I said.

"That's crazy. Maybe it's meant to be then". She laughed.

Yeah maybe.

"Okay hes on his way in"! Pete yelled from the door.

I quickly shut the lights off as we all crouched down. When the front door opened Colson set his bags down and I flipped the lights back on.

"Surprise"! We yelled.

"Shit"! He hissed and held his chest. "Wow". He laughed.

"Happy birthday man"! Travis smiled as him and Kourtney walked over.

I looked over to see Casey still crouched down. She was the big surprise of the night.

After Colson shook hands and gave his hugs his eyes met mine and I gave him a smirk. He walked over and i put my arms around his neck.

"Happy Birthday my love". I smiled and rested my lips against his.

"Thank you baby". He smiled and pulled away.

He glanced down at the cake and chuckled.

"Did you-?

"Surprise"! Casey yelled.

Colson let go of me and grabbed his daughter, spinning her around.

"Ah best birthday present ever. How are you my princess"? He asked and kissed her cheek.

"I stayed up just for you". Casey giggled and set her down.

"Well where's mom? She can take you home if you don't wanna stay". He smiled and she shook her head then turned to me.

"Tell your dad part two of his gift". I smiled.

Casey looked up at her father and smiled. "I get to stay here for a week. Mommy's at home". She smiled.

Colson turned to me and grinned. "You got Emma to send Casey here and she didn't stay?" He asked.

"She told me she had work to do around the house and agreed." I said.

He smiled and picked Casey up again an then pulled me into him.

"My girls". He laughed.

After a few minutes Colson went to mingle with the others as Casey and I cut the cakes. Casey took a small blob of icing and wiped it across my arm as she giggled.

"Oh my gosh". I laughed and she did it again.

I took a small scoop and did the same back to her when Pete walked over.

"Hey there ladies. Are we having a cake fight"? He laughed and Casey threw a piece at him.

I laughed out loud as he wiped it from his face.

"That's just wrong". He said and grabbed a piece of cake to attempt to do it back but we ducked, it now sliding down the stove.

"You're cleaning that". I laughed and Casey hit him again with another piece.

He ran off. "I'm getting ammo"! He yelled.

I turned to Casey as she giggled again. This time we looked up to see Travis. He held onto a plate of spaghetti and gave Casey a smirk.

"That's not fair". She groaned and Travis knelt down.

Before anybody could do anything she wiped a piece of cake down Travis's face and ran behind me.

"Oh this is war". He said and dumped the plate of spaghetti on us.

I yelped and grabbed more cake and threw it back, seconds later someone held onto me.

"I'll hold them down"! Colson yelled.

I got cake smashed into my face as I seen Rook and Brandon helping Travis and Pete.

Casey threw as much cake as she could but Colson pushed her face into the other cake that nobody touched.

I reached behind me to grab him and somehow got out of his hold. I turned to Travis and he nodded as he walked over and we both smashed Colson's face into his cake.

"Oh very nice". Pete smiled and Casey hit him with another piece.

"Cmon"! He yelled.

After the cake war was done I turned to look at all of us and laughed. So much for cake as dessert. I turned to Colson who licked the icing from his lips and pulled me to him.

"Thank you for the best birthday". He smiled.

"Anything for you". I smirked and smashed my caked lips to his.
