FALLing for you

Chapter 9:

Ross Pov

Today is Laura's birthday... I mean technically it kinda started but now it's about 5:45a.m. And while she sleeps I want to set up something special for her so I got dressed and left my guest room, sneaking by the kitchen and out the door...

dear diary:
So it's early in the morning and I didn't get to much sleep last night, in fact I got barely any sleep at all. First, I was searching for Ross and didn't even fall asleep until nearly 2:00am and all I could think of where the things Ross said about me... I just can't get those words out of my brain...

"Selfish"
And
"Inconsiderate"

I mean sure I love him, at least I did love him and I still love him, I just forgot I was stuck in a little bubble where id thought he'd always be that perfect guy. In fact I always thought we'd be the perfect couple, never arguing and always satisfied but weren't not... And that's ok. Sometimes, actually usually perfect is boring... I still love Ross, I'm not angry at him... I'm actually ok that he said those things because now I know what I need to work on. Everyone should have goals, and mine are to improve myself to satisfy others. This isn't even for Ross, it's for everyone involved in my life... Lately I have been negative and selfish to even my family... And I hated Lying to them at dinner about us, they deserve to know Ross and I have been dating... This whole relationship thing is just so difficult...

So that's my diary entry I decided to write, just so I could remember these past wild events...

--a few hours later--

Well now it's about 8:30a.m. And I decided to start getting ready for my birthday... My "big day" as everyone calls it but honestly it doesn't feel all that special to me...

I just wanna relax and have a normal day but knowing my family that won't happen!

As I was headed to the kitchen to grab some breakfast my mom dad and Nessa come out of the hallway singing happy birthday and holding a big birthday pancake...
(Sighs) Pancakes make me think off Ross

"Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you..."
They sang, taking me to sit on the kitchen island where I ate and chatted with my family

"Make a wish!" My mom said holding up her camera

"Happy birthday!" My dad shouted

"Thanks! This is so good!" I said with a mouthful

"No problem honey! So what are your big birthday plans?" My mom questioned

"I don't know, probably just hang here" I shrugged

"Your not going to go chill with friends?"

"What friends? They are all in L.A." I replied

"What about Ross?" Nessa asked winking

"I don't know, haven't heard anything from him, I think he's sleeping still" I said 

"Oh wow! We thought you would have been attending some party and spending time with friends" my dad said

"Nope" I replied

"Well How about presents?" My mom said cutting off my dad
