There are no rumours about Castle and me.
No one's pointing fingers, whispering or acting weird. Meaning Maddy didn't tell anyone yet. She must've taken my threat seriously and decided to cower. Or maybe she's just waiting for the right time.
Today I decided to put all my worries aside though. Today is a day to enjoy. Today is a day to celebrate. Today is a day to party. Because it's Castle's birthday.
That little bitch didn't tell me today was his birthday. He didn't mention it at all. Camille called me this morning and told me.
The moment she did, I rushed down to the kitchen yelling for Mom and Dad.
"Dad! Mom! Today is Castle's birthday!"
They both jump in their seats. "What?"
"He didn't tell me about his birthday!" I narrow my eyes.
Mom gets up from her chair, moving around the kitchen and opens drawers and shelves. "Okay, so we have eggs, chocolate. Darn it, we need milk."
Dad follows after her, pulling out his phone to make a list. "We need birthday decorations. Is he turning eighteen? Oh right, he is. We need candles that say eighteen." He types on his phone.
For a moment I stare at them in confusion, then it dawns on me. "We're throwing him a birthday party?" I exclaim in excitement.
"What else do you think we're doing?" Dad asks, moving towards the door. Mom follows after him, tugging a scarf around her neck.
He comes to an abrupt halt, spinning around to face me. "Holly." He snaps my attention to him. "Don't let Castle come here until I tell you to bring him. Don't let him go to his own house too, you get me? I'm gonna go get Camille here."
I give him a military salute.
I try to spot Castle in the hallways of the school but he's nowhere to be found. I'll make sure to give him a good kick in the ass when I find him for not telling me that it's his birthday.
Oh shit. I didn't get him a gift!
Fuck you, Castle. Why didn't he tell me before?
I ponder over all the possible gifts I could give him. During all my classes, I try searching for presents and hoping I can order something online that'll come on time.
During lunch, I don't see Sean at our table and get worried. I ask one of his teammates and he says that Sean's doing extra practice on the field. I think it's better if we don't see each other for a while. Things would get hella tense if someone put the two of us in the same room.
