After having a long talk with Kathleen and finally showing her to her room I had at long last gotten ready for the going away party, which only really consisted of my favorite leafs t-shirt, a pair of ripped jeans, and my leather jacket.

Now as we pull into Ryan's driveway I can hear the music blasting through the open windows, the first think I notice is a bunch of  blue and black balloons scattered across the yard and hanging from the porch, to my utter shock  I even see some on Ryan's 3 story roof.

Wondering how the heck they got up there I hop out of the truck. Osten's standing beside me smiling like an idiot as I look at all the decorations and signs hanging from everywhere. I feel my mouth open in shock and as I recover a huge smile plasters its onto my face.

I guess the guys went all out for this I think to myself, turning to face Osten, I ask him about the balloons on the roof.

Apparently that was Drakes brilliant idea *Note the sarcasm,* however  while he was up there he fell off. Luckily for him he landed in a bush not injuring anything but his pride, by now Osten and I are both laughing our heads off at the story and the idea of how funny Drake would have looked up on the roof with a bunch of balloons tied to his hands as he tries not to fall to his impending death.

In Ryans basement If you can imagine there are even more decorations down here than there were outside. 

There are blue streamers lining the walls, a refreshment table lined with black balloons topped  with chips, candy, drinks and pretty much any treat one could think of. On the flat screen there is currently a slide show of me with different members of the team playing on a loop.

In the corner of the room there is a huge cake that says  "We'll Miss You Rose", and to top it off and to my surprise in the corner of the room is a Karaoke machine decked out with speakers and a huge screen playing the lyrics to the song.

Jason and Ryan are currently (trying) to sing hit me one more time by Brittney spears, when I walk in Drake immediately puts his arm around me clears his throat and to my embarrassment utter embaresment shouts, "SHE HAS ARRIVED," He then proceeds to lead me towards a bunch of the team members who are getting refreshments. I grab some sort of punch and a hand full of chips before wiggling out if his grasp.

Jason and Drake along with Ryan are talking to Osten across the room as I run into coach.  He says that the team is really going to miss me before turning back to talk to Shane, our second defence man.

"Hey Rose," Drake hollers through the mic in his hand as Jason pauses the game before they both walk up to me and rest there arms on my shoulders. I successfully elbow both of them in there stomachs before jumping out of their way. 

The guys and I have been pretty much chilling out for the last two hours as I'm currently sitting on the sofa with my feet resting on Ryan's lap. 

Osten is unsuccessfully trying to get everyone to quite down when eventually Jason whistles and tells everyone to shut the hell up, everyone quites down long enough for Osten to start talking.

"Not that I'm any good at this but I'd just like us to raise our drinks to our awesome captain, Rose," He says playing with the tab on his pop can and grinning massively out into the audience.

"To Rose," gets echoed around the room as they all raise there glasses and take huge gulps of whatever they are currently holding.

"But wait,wait,wait, I'm not done yet," He yells before pointing at me and signaling me to follow. As the crowd parts ways I follow him with a look of utter confusion.
