Family

-72-

A couple of days after sam dropped the movie bomb on us we, Chris, Phil, PJ and I, had all finished our plans, confirmed the invites and were ready to go.

I had sent Phil and PJ down to the bar where we were holding the party 2 hours early so that they could start setting up with the employees while Chris and I told Dan about what we had been planning "what?? How come you haven't told me?" Dan whispered, obviously irritated that we didn't tell him about our plans earlier "we couldn't find the right time, plus you probably would've given it away" as much as I loved Dan he was absolutely terrible at keeping secrets.

"Rude" I rolled my eyes at him and sighed, he was acting like a little kid "just go down to the bar and help PJ and Phil set up" I slid my hand behind his lower back and began to push him down the hall to the front door. "Why can't I stay here with sam?" He asked in a sassy tone, I was getting really tired of him constantly questioning my choices, it's tiring. "Because I said so! Now go" I shoved him towards the door and stormed back down the hall, calming myself down before I got back to Sam's room.

"Hey Y/N, where's Dan gone?" I entered Sam's room and saw Chris and sam sat on the edge of their bed swinging their legs back and forth. "He's just popped down to the shops to get some Pringles" I lied, I sat down cross legged on the floor and looked up to Chris and sam. "Oh, he said he was going to the loo" shit, I was close to being caught, I had to back pedal "maybe he just got hungry, you know what he's like" my palms started to get sweaty, I was not about to let over a week of planning go down the drain just because I couldn't make a convincing lie.

"Yeah, I guess so" they shrugged and I checked the time on my phone, the party was at 8pm and it was 7pm now, maybe I should start getting ready "hey sam, don't question me when I tell you to do this" I stated "but you need to put on your best casual outfit" that was such an odd request, oh well.

"Meh ok" they just shrugged and started to rummage through one of the cardboard boxes by the window labelled 'clothes'. "Well that was easy" I joked, laughing at how effortless it was to get them to do what I needed. "This better be worth it though" they cradled a ball of miscellaneous clothes in their arms and strolled past me to the door. "Trust me it will be"   I was now getting even more excited for the party, I hope Sam likes it, if not then I'll be so disheartened.

"Ok if you say so, I'm just going to the bathroom to get changed" I yawned in response, I had been staying up so late the last couple of days so that I could finish planning the party so I am pretty much running on empty right now. "Ok, take your time" once I was confident that Sam couldn't hear me I jumped to my feet and grabbed Chris mid way down his shirt, pulling him up off the bed. "Come on! We need to get changed too!" I dragged him closer to the door before letting go of him so that I could go to my room to get my pre designated outfit. "Okay, I'll see you in like 15 minutes" I nodded in agreement and darted down the hall, not wanting to waste a single second.

I had thought about this outfit 2 days prior to today so it should be alright. The outfit itself consisted of a baggy grey shirt, black leggings and trainers, not the most glamorous or flashy thing I have ever worn but it was perfect for this sort of casual party event. I was so excited to get to the party I couldn't wait, it's going to be so fun.

I've been so shit at updating I'm so sorry
