Fix Me (Septiplier) || The Boy Trap Book 2

Chapter 12 - Frozen Together

February 7th, 2017

Jack's POV

I woke up to the sun shining brightly in through the window. I tried to fall back asleep, but the sun kept shining in my eyes and kept me awake. I groaned loudly and literally rolled out of bed, thumping to the floor.

I rubbed my eyes and groggily walked out of my bedroom. I walked down the hall into the kitchen. All the blinds were closed and the lights were off, so it was almost pitch black. I flicked on the lights-

"SURPRISE!" People shrieked and jumped out from behind counters and chairs. I stumbled back and hit the wall, my heart pounding out of my chest. I tried to speak but the breath caught in my throat. Complete silence fell over the room, except for Wade quietly blowing a noise maker from under the table.

"Jesus fucking Christ, I hate you all." I finally managed a breathy laugh. Once people realized I was okay and not literally dying, everyone stood up and laughed. I looked around; Molly, Felix, Bob, Wade, and Mark were there, but where was my dad? Suddenly a cupcake was slapped on my face.

"Happy birthday!" He laughed from behind me.

"Okay, I'm not joking any more, I literally hate you." I peeled the sticky wrapper off of my nose and wiped the icing out of my eyes. Suddenly I felt a pair of lips on mine.

"No you don't." Mark pulled away and wiped the frosting off of his face with his sleeve.

"Ew, you guys are gross!" Wade whined sarcastically.

"Your face is gross!" I retorted.

"Says you." Molly held up her phone and snapped a picture of me, then turned it around for me to see. My entire face was drizzled with blue frosting with bits of vanilla cupcake stuck in the frosting. Even though my face was covered with icing, you could still see the blush on my cheeks.

"God damnit." I laughed.

"Go clean up! We're gonna go do stuff!" Molly knudged my shoulder and went to post the picture on Instagram.

I turned and walked towards the bathroom, leaving everyone else to talk and hang out while my dad went to go make breakfast.

I turned on the sink and grabbed a washrag. I looked in the mirror at the sticky icing all over my face. Suddenly someone came up behind me.

"Happy birthday." Mark wrapped his arms around my waist and set his chin on my shoulder.

"I love you." I hummed as I turned on the sink and wet the washrag.

"I love you, too." Mark smiled and kissed the top of my head. "I'm not super creative or romantic, so your birthday won't be as cool as mine, but it was still fucking expensive." He chuckled softly.

"You know I would've been completely happy with staying in bed all day and watching movies." I wiped the last bit of icing from my cheek. As I reached for a towel suddenly my heart started racing. "Shit! What about school today?"

"It's the second semester. Whatever." Mark shrugged. "It's your birthday! We can spend one day hanging out." Mark ruffled my hair.

"Fine. I'll copy somebody's homework." I dried my face and kissed Mark on the cheek. We walked out of the bathroom, breakfast was on the table and everyone was talking as they waited for us. We spent the next hour or so just talking and eating. I didn't want anything fancy, just being with my friends made me genuinely happy.

"Jack, go get dressed and grab a jacket. We're going to go somewhere!" Felix grinned as he pulled on his jacket and shoes. I looked down at my pajama pants that I forgot I had on. I ran to my bedroom and quickly got dressed before following everyone out the door.
