Demi’s Pov

Today is my birthday!! It’s August 20th, but you knew that already!! I am so excited; I can’t wait to start doing the preparations to the house ready for the party.

I am lying in bed and Joe is still asleep, I decide to get up and go and take my tablets, I walk into the kitchen and grab a glass from the shelf and then go to the sink to fill it with water, I suddenly feel all dizzy, I quickly place my hand to my head and grab the counter, I almost collapsed but somebody caught me. “Woah, are you okay Dems?” he asked

I looked up and realised it was Joe “Let’s get you sitting down” he said as he helped me into the living room.

“I’m okay Joe; I think I just go up too quickly”

“You wait there Dems, I’ll go and get you some breakfast. Oh, and did you manage to take you tablets?”

“No, I was about to get them out when I went dizzy”

“Okay, I’ll get those as well”

“Joe, you don’t have to I’m fine” I said starting to get up

“Okay” he sighed giving in

We both walked out into the kitchen and I wrapped my arms around him “Honestly I’m fine, please stop worrying”

“Okay, I’m sorry” he replied “I haven’t even wished you a happy birthday yet”

Joe then put some bread into the toaster and got the butter out of the fridge, when the toast had popped up he took it out and buttered the four slices, giving 2 of them to me. We sat down at the table and ate our toast quickly; there was still a lot to do and people were going to start arriving at around 6. The whole time Joe looked sad, like he had done something wrong “What’s the matter?” I asked

“Nothing, I have just made a mess of this morning”

“You haven’t” I said getting up and pecking him on the lips

Joe smiled at me and said “You sure?”

“Joe, you haven’t ruined the morning. You have done the complete opposite, having you there when I woke up, is more than I could ask for on my birthday”

Joe smiled big and said “Happy birthday Dems”

When we were both finished we took our plates out into the kitchen, mom walked in and said “Morning”

“Morning mom” I said giving her a kiss on the cheek

“Happy birthday Dems” she greeted me

“Thanks” I replied giving her a hug

Mom continued to make herself breakfast, “What time are people coming?” she asked

“We told them 6, when we sent out the invites” I replied

“Oh, okay”

“Is that okay?” I asked

“Yeah, that’s fine Dems. You have a lot to do before then though”

“I know” I replied chuckling a little

We left mom in the kitchen to finish making her breakfast; Joe and I went and sat down in the living room. “What do you want to do first?” he asked

“Well, I'd like to get dressed”

He laughed a little and then said “Of course”

“But maybe, we could start by decorating?”
