Growing More

Chapter 38

Remember to check out my new book, Blazing Flames!

"So I have everything we're gonna do planned out. I even have times when certain movies are showing. You like The Notebook, right?" Josie asked me.

I looked down at my feet. "I've never seen it, actually,"

"I'm sorry," Josephine scoffed, "I must not've heard right. I thought you said you've never seen The Notebook."

"It's true," I insisted.

"Does Edward have you living under a rock?" she asked me.

"I just don't really like romantic movies,"

"Are you sure you're a girl? You're not hiding your nuts or anything, are you?"

I rolled my eyes at her.

"Okay, okay, how about Romeo and Juliet?" she asked.

"Deal!"

Perfect. Everything was going to plan.

As Bella left the house, I began to make plans for her birthday party. I know it's still three days away, but I want to be prepared.

I called the bakery and ordered a cake to be picked up early Monday morning. I went out shopping to buy decorations, and I began texting invitations.

When I finally got home, I went to our bedroom and opened my drawer. Moving papers and miscellaneous items, I finally found it.

I picked up the black velvet box and twirled it between my fingers for a moment before flicking it open.

The ring reflected rainbows on the walls as the sunlight hit the intricate diamonds.

Smiling, I shut the box and placed it back in the drawer.

You can do this, I told myself, before walking out to the living room and watching some television.

Sorry it's so short and that I've been updating infrequently, but I was sick and school is murder!
