I got off the floor and went back into the living room. I laid back down on the couch and checked my phone. It was 6:07. Bobbi probably wouldn't be getting up till 10 so went back to sleep.

"Madison wake up!" Someone screamed into my ear. I sat straight up. I glared at Bobbi. "Happy birthday!!" She yelled. She pulled out a can of icing from behind her back. A candle was stuck into the icing. "You know me so well." I say. I hate cake. Like just how dry it is. "Make a wish!" She said excitedly. I closed my eyes. Please let Ethan fall in love with me. I wished. I blew out the candle and opened my eyes. Bobbi cheered and so did David. Bobbi handed me the icing and a spoon and I started to eat the chocolate icing. Bobbi handed me two bags. "The green bag is from me and the pink one is from David." She said. "Aww thanks guys!" I say. I opened David's first. It was a necklace with my birth stone and a subway gift card. "I love it thanks!" I say. I give him a hug before opening Bobbi's gift. First I pulled out a beanie baby elephant that was s'cute. Next I pulled out a picture strip. Like the ones you get from photo booths. I laughed at it. It was from the day Bobbi, Grayson, Ethan, and I went to the arcade. The pictures were very thought out. The first one was of Bobbi and I. We had our tongues sticking out and we were making peace signs with our hands and we had big round sun glasses on. The next one was of Grayson and I. We had our backs against each other and we held our hands up like guns. The next one was of Ethan and I. We had our cheeks puffed out and our eyes crossed. The next one was my favorite. It was of all of us. Bobbi was in Grayson's lap and I was in Ethan's. Grayson was kissing Bobbi's cheek while Ethan kissed mine and Bobbi and I were laughing. We had too move very quickly in between pictures but they all turned out really cute. At the bottom of the bag was a whole bunch of candy. I hugged Bobbi. "I love you. You're the best." I say. "Love you too. But you need to get home. Your aunt texted me." Bobbi said. I nodded and stood up. I grabbed all my stuff... I think and went out the door. Bobbi didn't live that far away so I just walked home.

I got home and ran up stairs. I threw my stuff on to my bed and went back down stairs. "Aunt Becky?" I called out . I heard a honk from outside. I walked out side and my jaw dropped. It was a truck. I rushed over to it. It wasn't brand new but it was awesome. My aunt got out of the truck smiling. "Is this for me?" I asked. "Yes. Your parents left it to you. Your sister got one of those small ones. I like your truck way better." She said. My parents were still giving even after their death. My aunt tossed me the keys. "She's all yours and happy birthday sweetie." She said. I hugged her and ran to the truck. I have my learners permit. "Can you come with me so I can get my license?" I really wanted to get this over with. I was actually I really good driver so I didn't think I would fail. She nodded and got in the car. "To the DMV we go!" I said. I backed out of the drive way and went to get my license.

I pulled back into my driveway feeling pretty good. I'm a girl with a license. I got out of my truck and ran over to Ethan and Grayson's house. I walked right in. They really don't mind. I passed the living room. "Hey Mr. And Mrs.Dolan!" I say. "Hey Madison. What brings you over here?" Mr.Dolan asked. "I'm going to tell the boys I got my license!" I say proudly. "Congrats. And happy birthday sweetie." Mrs.Dolan said. "Thanks." I say before rushing upstairs. I ran into Ethan's room and saw that he was sleeping face down on his bed. I belly flopped on to his back. He groaned. "Hey there sleepyhead." I say. "How are you so awake? We stayed up so late last night." Ethan said. "Maybe because I just got my license!" I say. "Congratu-freaking-lations now get off of me." Ethan said. I rolled off of him so that I was now laying by his side. His eyes were closed. I poked his nose. "Come on you can't spend my birthday sleeping! Let's do some thing!" I say. Ethan opened his eyes. "That reminds me. My second gift. Well mine and Grayson's." He said. "Grayson get in here!" Ethan yelled. He sat up and rubbed his eyes. He's so cute. Grayson came walking into Ethan's room. "What?" He asked. "Madison's present." Ethan said. Grayson ran out of the room. Ethan got up and opened one of his dresser drawers and pulled out an envelope. Grayson came back with a bag. "Open the one that's just from me first." Grayson said. He handed me the bag. I took out the tissue paper and pulled out the gift. There was a snap back. Probably because I was always taking his. There was candy. Yay! And then there was a little box. I pulled it out and opened it. It was a beautiful ring. Of course it was an elephant ring. I hugged Grayson. "Thank you so much. I love it." I kissed his cheek. Of corse I didn't love it as much as Ethan's necklace but I still loved it. "Ok now for your final present." Ethan said. He handed me the envelope. I opened it. "OMG VIP Digi fest tickets! Are you guys going with me?" I asked. Ethan shook his head. My heart dropped. It would be really fun to go with them. "We're not going with you because we're in it." Grayson said. My mouth dropped. "Oh my gosh! Guys! Congrats! I'm so proud of you guys!" I say. I pulled them both into a group hug. "When is it?" I asked after I pulled away. "Two days in Manhattan." Ethan said. I jumped up and down excitedly. "I can't wait! I can meet twaimz, Jack G., Jack J, Sammy, Skate, Hayes, oh my gosh! I get to meet Nash Grier!" I screamed. "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Nash!" I screamed. "I really hope you don't do this in front of him." Grayson said. I laughed. "I didn't do it if front of you. I did it inside my head." I said. "True." He agreed. "I got to go and plan my outfits!" I yelled. Next to Ethan, Nash is definitely my biggest vine crush. I kissed Ethan and Grayson on the cheeks and ran down stairs. "Bye Mr. And Mrs.Dolan!" I yelled as I ran past the living room. I barely heard them say bye as I rushed out the front door and to my house. I had some packing to do!
