Rosie's POV :
It was half past 11, 30 minutes were left in Luke's birthday. Exuberance filled my mind as the time passed. I told Luke that I was going to sleep and pretended like the thought of his birthday has skipped my mind. I planned to call him right at 12 'o clock and suprise him.He must've been very upset about this, I knew he expected some attention from me on his special day but I ignored him. I was in my lounge and there was a clock hung right on the top of our television.
There were still 20 minutes remaining so I began writing a long note for Luke expressing all my feelings for him. I began typing the text on my phone so I that I could send it to him after our call ends. I began typing the text and it actually took me 15 minutes to type as I had so much to tell Luke but the word limit ended so it took me another 4 minutes to edit and shorten the text.It was 59 minutes past 11 and I unbolted my phone and opened the dialing pad. Ignoring the time mentioned on the phone and depending completely on the time flaunted on the clock in my lounge, I called my boyfriend.
Phone rang four times and Luke picked up.
"Hello?" Luke's deep voice.
And without even saying a single other word I began singing that awkward birthday song.
"Happy birthday to you...."
"Rose thanks but.."
I cut him off as I'm a really awkward person always doing what my stupid brain tell me to do, ignoring other's opinion.
"Happy birthday love, May you have many many more. You know I love you so much and you're my everything. I really really really desire to celebrate your every future birthday with you till the end. I love you so much."
My voice was filled with enthusiasm and love.
After a complete 1 minute of silence, he spoke up.
"I can't believe you remember. Thankyou. I love you baby. You're the first person to remember my birthday and wish me even before time." He sounded really happy.
"What? Before time? I thought I'm on time. Isn't it 12?" I was really confused before I saw my phone's screen and found out that it was 11.53 pm.That awkward moment reminded me that the clock shows the time 10 minutes ahead as I changed it's settings myself so we can leave for school before time. And I forgot that I did it myself and messd up every damn thing.
"Luke! I made a huge and stupid mistake. The clock in my lounge shows the wrong time and I wished you 10 minutes early. I'm so sorry. I changed the settings myself earlier in the morning but I forgot it cuz I was so excited. Why are you even with me, I'm so stupid! "
I was really pissed off on myself for messing everything up.
"Come on Rose. There are still 4 minutes left. You can wish me on time. I've never experienced someone being so excited about my birthday. Oh God you have no idea how much happy I am. Thankyou!" He sounded really happy. And seeing him happy brought infinite joy in my heart.
"Really? I'm glad baby."
I felt the feeling which I had never ever felt before. The intensity of happiness, like some part of me needed to hear that I did something which made someone happy. But it wasn't just about the feelings, I made Luke happy. Luke, who cared about me so much. Along with being in love with Luke as a person, I was falling for the feelings he gave me.
"Yes babe. You're the only person who always makes me smile so brightly."
He continued.
"He it's 11:59, let's began the countdown."
"Okay" he said with a slight chuckle.
"3..2..1.. Happy Birthday my love. I'm so glad I'm here with you to celebrate your 18th birthday. I'll be with you in the beginning of a new part of your life as an adult. Happy birthday, I love you."
"Aww. Okay guys don't say 'aw' but yours inspire me. Well, I love you more sweetheart. And yeah, you have to be with me. My love won't let you leave."He said so sweetly. The essence of his love was felt in his voice. I could feel the intensity of emotions he had in his heart at that moment. I could not resist his love anymore. I just wanted to be with this guy. There was no other thought in my mind except that. In a very little time he became so imperative to me.
"Of course love. I'll always be here for ya."
We continued to chat till 2 am.
"Luke listen. Will you be able to pick me up tomorrow after school? It'll be hard for me to meet you otherwise. Please?"
