My heart is pounding so fast I feel like it's going to burst.
I sit straight up feeling like I'm about to have a heart attack. That's when I realize I was just dreaming.
But why would I wake up at such a weird part?I sigh.
That means none of that was true.
"Knock, knock," my step mom says entering my room with my step brother.
I sit up and look at them.
"Happy birthday, Bella," Dylan says with his usual perverted smirk.
"Happy birthday," my step mom, Jen, says smiling.
"Thank you," I say with a smile spreading across my face as they reach down to hug me.
They both leave and once I hear footsteps on the stairs, I get up out of my bed.
My door opens again.
"Yes, Dylan?" I ask. Dylan is my age, except a few months older than me. He has dark brown hair, which I guess you could describe as Justin Bieber style, before he put gel in it. He has muscles and abs, but I don't think of him anything more than an annoying brother. Which is how it should be, anyways.
"Emma is coming over at three. She has some plans for your birthday. I suggest you wear something," he looks me up and down, "more revealing." He winks and closes the door.
"Pervert!" I yell, throwing a pillow at him right as the door shuts.
***
I get out of the shower and walk to my closet with a robe on.
Thinking of what Dylan said, I figure that he means Emma is taking me somewhere fancy. So I actually listen to him -for once in my life- and put on some fancy clothes. I prefer the term 'fancy' rather than 'more revealing.'
I find a black pencil skirt and a mint green see through top with a camisole built in. I put it on and threw my long brown wavy hair into curls and finish my makeup.
I walk downstairs to find mom getting ready for work, meaning dad will be home soon, and Dylan playing mine craft.
"Sup nerd," I say sitting down next to him.
"Hey Blondie," he says right back. We have that brother-sister relationship where we don't mind when we call each other names. "Better get something to eat before your friend gets here."
"Fine." I get up and go to the fridge to find some food.
"Heyyy!" Emma says letting herself in, which she does all the time so its nothing out of the ordinary.
"Hey girly! I thought you weren't coming until three, meaning fifteen minutes?"
"Yeah, well, I decided to pop in early since I have nothing better to do. Anyways, happy birthday!"
"Awe, thank you!" I hug her.
"Bring your food to the car, the earlier we get there, the better!"
"Where are we going?"
"It's a surprise," she smiles at me. "Grab your food, lets go!"
We get in the car and about a half hour later my food is gone and I'm even more curios to where she is taking us.
"We will be there in about ten minutes," Emma tells me. "Here, put this on."
She hands me a blindfold. "Why do I have to put on a blindfold?"
"Just do it, please."
I listen to her.
Soon enough Emma parks her car.
She opens my door, takes my arm, and guides me around to wherever she is taking me.
"Where are we going?" I practically yell. It's really loud.
"Happy birthday, Bella!" My best friend says taking my blindfold off.
I look behind me to see a huge crowd of people. We are at the front of the crowd, by a stage. But for what?
It feels like this has happened before.
"For your 18th birthday, your dad helped me put together money to get concert tickets for the two of us to see One Direction!"
Then it hits me. This is exactly like my dream I had last night. But, it can't be the same. How could I have dreamt something and then the exact same thing happens? I'm probably hallucinating.
But I'm not. I realize I must've looked frozen because I tuned everything out to listen to my thoughts.
"Bella?"
"Yeah, sorry, I just can't believe this is actually happening! Thank you so much!" I hug her again.
The rest of the day is really weird because it was going the way my dream was. I went on stage, Harry gave me the backstage passes, and the next thing I knew, I was at the water fountain getting a drink of water.
Louis grabs my wrist so I don't fall back.
He lets go and Liam says, "hi."
They laugh and I say, "Hi." A second or two passes and I say, "did you need something?"
They all look at each other, then back at me.
Zayn says, "we know what you are."
My thoughts are distracting me again because now I realize I can find out what's going on and what Zayn means.
"What do you mean?" I ask. I probably look like clueless person.
They exchange looks.
"Maybe she doesn't know what she's cape able of..." I hear Harry whisper to Zayn.
"You realize you're not the best at whispering?" I tell Harry.
The band mates laugh while Harry looks embarrassed.
"Sorry, I just, what are you guys talking about? What do you mean you know what I am?"
"Have you ever..." Liam trailed off. Zayn gave him a look, "Have you ever dreamt something, and had it happen in real life?"
I just looked at them.
"Well?" Niall said. "Have you?
"Niall." Harry said.
"Sorry, it's not my fault I'm inpatient!" We all looked at him, then they turned back to me.
Emma came out of the bathroom.
"Yes." I say to them then get Emma.
I hear the boys whispering, but I don't look back. I walk with Emma. She looks beat, so we go home.
I almost fall asleep during the drive. To wake myself up, and show Emma how much I appreciated what she did for me, I say, "Thanks so much for this amazing surprise, Em. This is the best birthday ever. I don't think anything will ever top this. Love you girly!"
"You're welcome, I'm glad you had fun!"
We get out of the car and hug, then she drives home.
I quietly go inside and head up to my room.
I go to my bathroom to change into comfy pajama shorts and a tank top, and crawl in bed.
