*1 month later*
It was my birthday and Luke said to come over to his house for a BBQ or something. I dressed in tights and a black button up shirt with a studded collar. I didn’t wear any make-up because being best friends with the boys had made my self-esteem rise and I didn’t care about what anyone said or thought anymore. The boys have really been there for me. Teddy and the others haven’t spoken since the incident. I walked to the brooks brothers house and swung open the door. Nobody was inside. It was silent and you’d probably be able to hear a pin drop. I heard a noise coming from outside. I kinda got freaked out. I walked slowly towards the door. Not knowing what was behind it. I slowly opened the door. It creaking every inch it moved. It was fully opened and everyone jumped up from behind the chairs, tables and everywhere else.
"SURPRISE!" everyone screamed with joy and happiness.
I was so shocked. Everyone was there from my parents and siblings to my nan and pop. I was 17 today. Just another wrinkle to add to my face. I saw the boys laughing and blowing into party whistles. I ran up to them and gave them all a hug.
"Thank you boys!" I smiled.
"You are very welcome Caity" Beau laughed.
A few hours later it was around 10pm. Some people needed to get home so I decided to open my presents.
I opened everyones up and jesus christ everyone must of spent heaps on me. The boys were about to hand me my presents from them.
"No, I want to open it with just us. Sleep at mine tonight?" I asked.
They all agreed and went on with the night. Everyone had left and it was just the boys, my siblings, my parents and Gina.
"Mum, dad, can the boys sleep at ours tonight?" I asked.
They both said yes and we left to go to mine. We all entered my room and I sat down on my bed. I had a king size bed and a lounge. I had a flat screen T.v and a walk-in wardrobe. I also have my own bathroom. All the boys awed in fascination. They then handed me presents and I opened James’ first.
It was a beautiful silver necklace with the words ‘James’ written on it. It was adorable.
"Thank you omg"
I then decided to open Jai and Beau’s present next. It was a pandabear beanie, a black and red snapback, a yellow angry birds beanie and a silver ring with ‘Bestfriends’ written on the inside.
"this is fucking cute" I screamed with excitment.
Next it was Skip. It was a Janoskians bikini and a pair of silver and sapphire earrings.
"Thankyou so much Daniel" I said.
Then it was the one I was waiting and craving the most, Luke’s.
I grabbed the present and started to unwrap it. It revealed a light brown fluffy teddy bear with a card in its hands. I hugged the teddy and took the note out of its hands. I read very carefully making sure I didn’t miss a single word.
‘Dear caitlyn, my beautiful and amazing best friend,
Words cannot describe how much I love and care for you. They can’t explain how much you mean to me and how amazing you truly are. I can’t believe that someone as perfect as you has came into my life and became my bestfriend. I love being somewhere with my friends and seeing you there with your family or friends sometimes even alone and pointing at you and saying ‘That’s my best friend’. I can be my complete self around you, knowing that you won’t judge and you have made me grow in dramatic ways. You make me more mature but also more childish. I brought you a teddy bear because I know how much you’ve always wanted one because when you were little you’re sister stole it and wouldn’t give it back. Caitlyn, remember how you always say I was your world when you never knew us personally? Well, now you’re my world.
Caitlyn, I’ve wanted to say something to you for the past 3 months just never found an appropriate time to tell you but, i feel like it’s now or never.
I love you and I want to be more than your best friend.
Please let me call you mine.
Also, Happy birthday Miss Caity! I hope you have a special and amazing birthday.
Love from Luke xox’
A tear escaped my eye. Luke was now offically my one and only true love. I tore my eyes off the sheet and looked at Luke.
"I will not be yours Luke" I said staring into his eyes.
His face instantly dropped along with everyone else’s.
"Unless you be mine" I smiled.
His smile grew back on his face and everyone cheered.
"Caitlyn, I really do like you." He said with a serious face.
"Why so serious?" I said tilting my head.
Everyone laughed even though I didn’t know what I did that was so funny so I just laughed with them.
"Caitlyn, I have another present for you" Luke clapped his hands together with excitment.
I nodded grinning from ear to ear.
He left the room and came back in a minute later.
"Here" He said handing me the present.
I opened it up very carefully and slowly. I had eventually had all the wrapping off the present and scattered over the floor, oh my god.
