* Next morning *

I shuffled in my bed, inhaling a deep breath as I turned onto my stomach. Something had awoken me but I was too tired to even attempt to see what it was. I kept my eyes closed as I was about to fall back to sleep when I realized what had woken me. "Wake up babygirl," Wesley's voice cooed as my eyes shot open and I turned to face him. His lips curled into a smile before he spoke, "happy birthday." I smiled before reaching my arms towards him. "Thank you Wes," I whispered groggily as he leaned down, allowing me to engulf his presence. I missed seeing him yesterday, which reminded me, "why weren't you answering my texts?" He kissed my shoulder, our bodies still wrapped in each other, "my phone was bugging out yesterday, I wasn't getting any calls or messages." I nodded to myself as he kissed my shoulder once more before pulling away. I looked down to see what he was wearing, seeing he was wearing dark blue jeans and a large white tank top that had patterns in the middle, wrapping around his torso. He completed his outfit with a tan-colored hat. He always looked good with his snapbacks; he has a collection of them. Just then I felt a twinge of pain by my belly button, remembering the piercing my sister got me yesterday. "Look what my sister surprised me with last night," I flickered my eyes down to my bellybutton before lifting my tank top just enough for him to see. His jaw dropped slightly as he spoke, "oh, that looks so good on you," he stared at it in admiration, lightly touching it with his index finger. "Does it hurt?," he asked, moving his vision to lock with mine. "Only a little," I admitted before he leaned down, placing a small kiss to the area. A small smile stretched across my face as I pressed my hands into the mattress, sliding my butt back to sit up. "Come on birthday girl, get ready, I'll be waiting for you downstairs," he lightly slapped my leg before standing from my bed. He walked through my doorway before flashing a quick smile and closing the door. A small chuckle escaped my lips before I yawned, stretching out my arms. I blindly felt for my phone behind me, not bothering to turn around and look for it. I grabbed it and tapped the home button, noticing it was 8:30am. I threw my legs over the edge of my bed, inhaling another deep breath. I pressed my feet into my hard wood floor before walking into my bathroom to get ready.

* Wesley's POV *

"You have everything ready for tonight?," Emily asked quietly, taking a bite from her apple. I smiled excitedly, looking down at my hands, "yeah, I hope everything goes as planned." She chuckled, "I'm sure it will." I looked over at her before asking, "do you think so?" She nodded before I heard someone coming downstairs. I looked over to see my beautiful girlfriend walking downstairs wearing high-waisted mint green shorts that reached just below her bellybutton and a floral bralet that ended just above her bellybutton, revealing her new belly ring. She matched it with beige sandals that had diamonds and studs down the center and added black sunglasses that for now rested upon the top of her head. She looked absolutely stunning and something specific that I liked about her the most was how natural she looked. She had on just the slightest bit of makeup and she looked perfect. "Hey babe," she flashed her irresistible smile, showing off her deep, captivating dimples. I quickly returned one, spreading my arms open, "hey babygirl." She fell perfectly into my hold, pressing her lips against mine. Her scent always smelled amazing and I always sneaked a whiff of it as I hugged her. "Are you ready to go?," I asked her as I played with her hair that ended below the center of her back. She nodded before looking over at her sister, who smiled widely. "Happy birthday Jenn," she hopped over to her as they embraced each other, laughing in the process. When they pulled away, Jennifer's face suddenly fell, "where's mom?" Emily's mouth opened to say something but a familiar voice cut her off, "right here." We all looked up at the balcony, seeing Lucy leaning against the railing, a smile imprinted on her face. I couldn't help but smile when Jennifer's face lit up as she hurriedly walked up the stairs and over to Lucy. They hugged each other tightly and it looked as if they were whispering things to each other. I looked over at Emily, lowly asking her, "she's definitely coming tonight too, right?" She nodded quickly before pressing her index finger to her lips, implying for me to be quiet. I looked over to see Jenn walked down the stairs once again, strolling over to me.
