"Am I dead?" I ask, palms shaky as my eyes open slowly.
"We weren't even going that fast." There's disbelief and a little bit of sass in Nathan's voice that makes me widen my eyes.
"YOU LUNATIC, YOU WERE DRIVING LIKE YOU WERE ON THE RUN FROM A FREAKING ROCKET SHIP!" I yell, checking to see if my full body is intact.
"You're overreacting." He scoffs before getting out the car.
I mirror his action, slamming the car door with more force than necessary and glare at him. "You're under-reacting!"
"Okay, Blondie. Don't get your damn panties in a twist."
"Don't tell me what to do with my panties!" I retaliate, stomping after him towards the front door.
"Okay, I'll do what I want done to them myself, instead." He throws me a wink and I blush, twisting the key in the lock and bumping into the door because I forgot to turn the handle.
"What the fu- Lucy!" Nathan sighs, "how the hell does one do that? You okay?" He looks at me with concern as my cheeks deepen with embarrassment. I nod, avoiding his eyes and opening the door - without injuring myself - before entering.
"You're so clumsy." Nathan mutters as he follows me to the kitchen.
As I attempt in turning the lights on, I feel a hand on my mouth and instantly yell as a reflex, although the noise gets blocked out.
My thrumming heart slows down as something creamy gets smeared on my face, followed by the lights being turned on.
"Happy Birthday, Lucy." Jason grins, and I let out a deep breath, calming myself.
"You little-" I growl, but stop when another round of frosting covers my forehead, this time because of Megan.
"STOP WASTING PRECIOUS FROSTING OH MY GOSH I MAY WANT IT ON MY PERIOD!" I yell, and they all make a sound between a laugh and one of disgust, completely ignoring the pain they caused me.
"But it's your birthdayyy!" Megan muses, and I press my lips to a thin line.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know birthdays meant death anniversaries for frosting." I snap, licking some frosting off my cheek.
"The sass is strong in this one." Someone says behind me, and I turn around to see Matt. He smirks, winking at me. "Looking gorgeous as always, Princess."
"Stop killing my self-esteem, butthole." I snap, turning to Megan and Jason, advancing towards them with the intention of giving them a hug.
"I'm sorry for snapping at you, guys, I'm just still a little riled up from Nathan almost getting me killed." I apologize, squeezing them close to each other with a group hug.
Jason looks over my head - making me feel extremely short - at Nathan. "You almost killed my sister?"
I turn around, smiling evilly at Nate, as he raises his hands up. "How was I supposed to know she's afraid of a hundred and forty miles per hour?"
Jason releases a big breath, and from the corner of me eyes I see Matt sit next to Megan on a tool.
"If you ladies are done arguing, can we cut the cake?" Megan's exasperated voice interrupts, and my face lights up at the mention of cake.
"Yes!" I practically skip over to her. "Where is it?"
She takes a small cake out from under the island surface, and I frown at the lack of frosting as I simultaneously wipe frosting off my face with a paper towel.
