Annabeth Swan was the older sister of Isabella Swan. Unlike her sister, Annabeth wasn't upset with the idea of moving to Forks to live with their father. Annabeth had continued to visit him every year near Christmas, unlike her sister, so she and he...
A couple of days later, Crystal invited Annabeth out for a girls' day. Today was the day before Crystal's birthday. Crystal would be going to Seattle to see her grandmother on her birthday, since they shared the same birthday, so she wanted to spend the day before with Anna; her best friend.
Anna had no idea what Crystal had planned, but she was excited to go out with her best friend. She had even woken up early, just to make sure she was ready to leave as soon as Crystal arrived at her house. She didn't want Crystal to have to wait even a moment to leave.

The first thing Crystal wanted to do when they got into Anna's car, was go out for breakfast. She didn't want anything extravagant, she simply wanted a donut and an iced coffee. Anna made sure they went to the best place for coffee and donuts though, since it was Crystal's birthday — kind of.
After breakfast, the two went to the salon to get their nails done and their hair done. Crystal needed her highlights touched up, and Anna decided to get her hair curled for once in her life. Most of the time she stuck with straight hair, or wavy if she had braided her hair the night before, but she never had it curled.
"I wanna get a tattoo," Crystal commented,"I'm finally going eighteen, and Mom can't stop me."
"Hopefully the tattoo parlor will look past you being seventeen today though." Anna replied, making Crystal chuckle.
Anna drove to the only tattoo parlor in Port Angeles that took walk-ins. When the two entered the parlor, Anna felt excitement fill her body. Even if Crystal couldn't get a tattoo, Anna definitely would be. That sounded rude, but Anna wasn't going to back out of the opportunity when she had it.
"I will let this slip, since you'll be eighteen tomorrow," The artist said,"but don't tell anyone that I did."
"Okay." Crystal replied, pure excitement in her voice.
Anna and Crystal were lead to two different chairs, and another artist came over to work with Anna. At first, Anna wasn't sure what she had wanted, but after a moment or two of thinking, she decided to get a tattoo that represented something that meant a lot to her.
It didn't take no more than an hour for the two girls to be finished getting their tattoos. After the tattoos, Anna took Crystal out to lunch. They needed something to eat before they went to the movies. Crystal had gotten tickets for the newest Marvel movie, and Anna was beyond excited to see it.
"Did you bring your purse?" Anna asked, and Crystal nodded.
"Y'know I would, we're going to the movies." She replied, making her friend laugh.
As soon as they had finished their lunch, Anna brought them to a convenience store to get some candy. The candy at the movie theater was way more expensive than at the store, so Anna didn't mind buying candy at the store and sneaking it into the theater. They would be buying drinks at the theater though, since the theater had large Icees in three different flavors.
Once they had gotten all the candy they wanted, Anna paid, then shoved all the candy in Crystal's purse. They then headed into the theater and bought drinks, before heading to the screen that would have their movie playing. Luckily, they had arrived just on time for the lights to dim and the previews to begin.
The movie Crystal had picked was Iron Man. Anna was a huge fan of Robert Downey Jr, so seeing him playing Iron Man, her absolute favorite superhero was a huge bonus. She enjoyed the entire movie, and wouldn't doubt that she'd probably buy tickets to see it again, and buy the DVD once it came out.
After the movie, Anna brought Crystal to a bakery to get two cupcakes. Luckily, the baker had a candle, so Anna was able to put the candle in Crystal's cupcake. She then lit the candle and sang Happy Birthday to her, making the girl's cheeks turn pink when other people in the bakery joined in, and clapped when she blew out her candles.
"Thank you for this," Crystal said,"I know this year was different than it normally is, but I loved it more than any of the other years. I've always wanted to spend my birthday with you, and you made my birthday wish for so many years come true."
"Awe," Anna felt tears prick her eyes,"I am so happy to spend your birthday with you. I love you."
"I love you, too." Crystal murmured, as she hugged Anna.
The two girls sat in silence for a moment, as they enjoyed the delicious cupcakes Anna had bought.
"So, are you going to tell me why you've got that letter on your wrist?" Crystal asked, causing Anna to smile slightly.
"It's just someone really special to me," She replied,"Maybe one day I'll be able to tell you, but for now, just know that he is special, and I know you would like him."
"Please don't let me find out like we did with Alex and Avery." She commented, making Anna smile.
"I promise that will never happen." Anna answered, though she wanted to add, because you'll never meet him.
A couple hours later, Anna and Crystal arrived back at the Swan house. Crystal said her goodbyes to Anna, before she climbed into her car and drove home. Anna headed straight upstairs to put away the couple of things she had bought while she was out. She also planned to get a shower and put on pajamas.
While Anna was getting ready for her shower, she looked down at the tattoo on her wrist and smiled. She was very happy with the way it turned out. The tattoo was gorgeous, and it would always be close to her heart. She just hoped that he liked it, too...

This is the tattoo she got, and yes, that's a J, just written all pretty-like.
Also, I couldn't remember the exact year I made this story take place, so let's just say it's 2008 from this point on if it wasn't already.
