"Hey baby wake up."

I heard quietly in my ear.

"Wha-?" I sat up in my bed.

"We have to go shopping for the celebration tonight. Let's go. Get dressed." Chandler said to me.

3:58 pm it said on my phone.

I got up and went to the bathroom with my clothes. I got dressed and put my hair into a high bun.

We got into the car and headed to the closest Walmart we could find. We walked in with our cart and began shopping.

"Ok buns, dogs, burge- hey are we getting the chips or is Hana bringing those?" I asked Chandler.

"Actually I think Sam is, but just grab some incase." He replied.

I grabbed everything from Doritos to Lays, and then I got the French onion dip. I then got paper plates and red solo cups, along with plastic forks and spoons.

"Are we all set or do we need anything els-?" Chandler was cut off by my screaming.

"CAN WE GET THESE?" I asked holding up a box of fireworks.

"No Gray has enough fireworks at his house, so we don't need them." Chandler replied taking them from my hands and putting them back.

"Ughhhh fine." I said turning away.

We walked up to the line and waited patiently. We eventually got done and took our bags out to the car.

"We have to drop these off at Gray's and go back home to get more stuff." Chandler explained.

"Ok." I replied.

I'm excited for this years Fourth of July. I mean last year my mom spent it out of town, so I was by myself. I lacked friends, therefore I sat inside watching tv while I heard blasting fireworks that came from my patriotic neighborhood.

We pulled up to Gray's driveway, and soon walked into his house.

"Wazzzup bitchesss." I yelled putting my arms in the air while holding grocery bags.

"Gray isn't here yet. He's also shopping. As well as everyone else." Chandler laughed.

"Well then." I said taking things out of bags.

Chandler out things into the fridge as I put the chips in the cupboards. We placed the plastic utensils on the counter, and went outside to the car.

We got home and walked inside.

"Ok I have to get dressed. You grab the blankets and the soda from the fridge." Chandler said.

"Why blankets?" I asked confused.

"What else will we sit on while watching fireworks?" He replied.

I went with that and began walking upstairs to my mother's room where she keeps all spare blankets.  I grabbed 4 comforters and walked downstairs. I went to the car and popped the trunk. That's where I placed all the blankets.

I went back inside and grabbed the 6 packs of soda. Sprite, coke, Pepsi, and Mountain Dew. I grabbed the cooler from the cabinet and placed the drinks inside. I then put ice in the cooler.

"Where'd that come from?" Chandler said walking downstairs.

"You never knew we had a cooler?" I asked puzzled.

"Uh no. I've been here for only a month." He laughed.

Chandler grabbed the cooler, and we then again piled back into the car. We drove to Gray's and now there were actually people.

"Is this going to be a big event or just us?" I asked.

"Hana, Brianna, Sam, Gray, you, and me." Chandler said.

"Oh ok." I said popping the trunk. We grabbed everything and headed inside.

"What's up guys?" Gray said snapping open a can of Pepsi.

"Nothin much. We just had to head back to grab a few more things." Chandler replied

"Well it's almost 6. When do you want to do fireworks?" Sam asked.

"Well the sun goes down around 9, so do them at like 10." I suggested.

"Ok. I'm going to grill now. What does everyone want?" Chandler asked.

He took orders and went outside. We followed after. I set the blankets out so we could all sit down. We all sat down and talked.

"So how ya doin Alex, after that whole accident?" Brianna asked.

"Well that was like last week, so I'm fine." I laughed.

"That's good." She replied.

"First burger!" Chandler called out.

We eventually all ate. We talked and laughed as the sun went down.

"Ok time for the fireworks." Sam got up and went inside. He came back out and lit one away from us and ran back.

A big explosion bursts into the air and turned into a big purple firework. After many fireworks we all layed down in a row and watched the stars. That's the last thing I remembered until I fell fast asleep in Chandler's arms.
