Play, 'I Only Have Eyes For You' by The Flamingos

February 20th, 7:00 am, Monday

The soft chirps of birds.

The cold air frosting slightly at my nose, as my body was warm from my comforter. I slept soundly, dreaming of bizarre things.

What were those bizarre things, I don't know because-

I awoke to the loud tv blasting as my door slammed open, Krist Novoselic standing in the mix of it all.

I mustered up my most bitchest face I could as I stared at him through half opened eyes.

"Natalie, get up we have to do stuff today!". He flashed the light on and off.

"Get the fuck out Krist!". I half yelled as I covered my head up. I had no college ghosting to do this week and I at least wanted to over sleep for a little bit. But no...Krist has to come interrupt my sleep and give me a headache in the process.

"Natalie we need you to help plan something for Kurt's birthday, it's today. Shelli asked if you could help make a cake". Krist bugged as he sat on the edge of my bed.

Kurts birthday?

I had only known Kurt for about a good month or so, we hadn't really talked a lot but I could tell he was a sweet guy. Though there was always this underlying feeling, that I could never pinpoint when we were near each other.

Despite that I did not know his birthday was this month, most people make their birthday known as soon as midnight strikes. Kurt, however, didn't even brag about it. "I didn't know his birthday was today?...I would've got him something". I said coming from under the covers.

Krist shrugged, "Kurt's not particularly enthusiastic about his birthday anymore, I guess. But I know Kurt and even though he may not verbalize it I know he's secretly hoping something is done, while it doesn't have to be lavish it has to be something and I wanna provide that for my little buddy".

"Aww, he's your little Gilligan?". I cooed and Krist snorted and got off my bed and walked towards the door.

"Anyways what do you say? Will you help us out?? I know Kurt will appreciate it a lot".

"Sure, I wouldn't mind helping you guys with this surprise party..". I sat up and stretched, rubbing my eyes to look at Krist clearly. "Do I have to go out and get ingredients?".

Krist shook his head, "Nah, Shells is out now getting ingredients, she'll be back in a hour or so. But I am in charge of semi decorating, yknow balloons and shitty ass poster that'll say 'Happy Birfday Kurdt' he'll get a kick out of it". I smiled a little at Krist and nodded my head.

"Alright, get out and let me get dressed. I'll be out in a little". Krist made his exit and I flopped back down onto my back.

Pulling the curtains aside I saw how the sun slowly crept up more and the neighbors getting into their cars to go about their day. Rubbing my face extra hard as I think about what might happen today, I get up and put on some pajama pants.

I open the door and immediately go to my left and into the bathroom.

11:23 AM

Shelli had came back and we started right away with doing something for Kurts birthday.

Twisted Sister's "We're Not Gonna Take It" blasted from the speakers as I poured the batter in the cake pan. Shelli talked onto the phone to have some pizza ordered for a specific time, Krist sat there and painted on the banner as he bopped his head to the music.
