  The end of the night
We should say goodbye
But we carry on
While everyone's gone

Never felt like this before
Are we friends or are we more?
As I'm walking towards the door
I'm not sure

I O N E

I hear whispers and footsteps climbing the stairs outside my room. I don't bother opening my eyes and interrupting my blissful sleep for something that's probably my mum with some of her girlfriends.

I'm quick to change my mind though as I overhear the knob on my door turning and the creak of the old wooden door separating me from reality.

The footsteps are coming closer and closer. My breath gets deeper. My heart beats faster. All these, until I hear a very familiar voice whispering in my ear. "Wake up, Birthday girl."

I lazily flutter my eyelids open. The first thing I see is a blurry image of colours and a pair of deep greenish-brown pair of eyes. Then I take a look around and see all my friends scattered around my room, holding colourful balloons and a couple of cupcakes with a lit birthday candle in each one. Everybody's looking at me with gleaming eyes. "Happy Birthday." They all say in unison making my heart flutter. I hastily peel the covers off my body and hug Ratchel with so much force, I almost tackle her to the ground.

"Thank you, guys this is wonderful." I beam at the sight in front of me. They all come closer and sing the birthday song to me. I'm too overwhelmed that I feel tears pooling in my eyes. I'm ready to blow the candles when Louis' voice interrupts me.

I lift my gaze and look at him being in Liam's arms and looking at me with a knowing look that says a lot more than words could. "Make a wish." He smiles sweetly and I look at Liam, as he looks down at his boyfriend and then back at me. And I know what Louis means, I know too well. But it feels kind of late for wishes. That doesn't stop me though.

'I wish for something good to happen today.' And I blow my candles. I wipe the happy tears off my eyes and everyone gathers in a group hug. "Thank you, thank you. This is really the first time somebody surprises me." They all smile and wish me happy birthday.

The boys get out and I'm left with the girls. Jane insists on dressing me up and doing my make up for today, as a birthday gift. "How awesome is it to have the same birthday with Justin Bieber?" Jane asks excitedly and Ashley scoffs.

"Justin's birthday was yesterday." She states a matter of factly. She shakes her head in shame and whispers under her breath, "such a fake fan." I stifle a laugh at their bickering and roll my eyes.

"I don't even like Justin Bieber. I couldn't care less." I flick them off and Ratchel starts doing my make-up. She puts all kind of neutral shades on me because as she says 'they compliment my light complexion and eyes.'

Then it's Jane's turn to dress me up. She has been searching my wardrobe for what seems like an hour, when she comes out with a knee length, deep blue, pencil skirt and a funky colourful top. "This will look brilliant on you." She doesn't let me form a sentence as she pushes me in the bathroom to dress myself.
