Chapter 40 – Hannah’s POV

It’s almost midnight and Nate, Cassie, Noah and I are standing outside of Jasmine’s room, ready to surprise her.

“Guys its 11:58, let’s go in!” I squealed quietly, wow it’s not even my birthday and I’m so happy.

“Shhh cupcake!” Noah put his finger to his lips, gesturing me to be quiet. I pretended to zip my mouth and lock it and nodded towards him.

“Let’s go!” Nate whispered.

Noah picked the lock of Jasmine’s room and we walked in, it had a similar layout to my own room and at this point I was thankful that Rochelle wasn’t in here, it would ruin the whole plan.

“Midnight!” Cassie whisper-yelled. She turned on the light switch and we all started singing.

“HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR JASMINE, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!” We sang at the top of our lungs, out of tune, waking her up. Nate and Noah started popping party poppers. She woke up all of a sudden and looked at us with a massive smile on her face, which is probably hurting her cheeks right now. Her hair was a mess and she was in her pyjamas. I couldn’t blame her; we were all in our pyjamas too. She leaped out of bed and ran towards us, pulling us into a hug.

“Thank you so so so much guys!” Her voice was muffled between all our shirts.

“You’re welcome baby girl” Noah responded to her, kissing her on the lips. Nate also pulled me into a kiss, seeing them.

“Break up the spit swapping” Cassie yelled.

“No way, that’s all you ever do with Craig” Noah chuckled at a blushing Cassie.

“Seriously though, happy 18th birthday Jasmine” Nate smiled at her and she grinned in response.

“You’re finally legal” Noah winked and Jasmine bit her lip, making me scrunch my nose. I’m no prude but two of my best friends talking about having sex with each other isn’t something I want to listen to. Nate noticed this and tapped my nose, making me smile again.

“So where are my gifts?” Jasmine asked, making us all laugh.

One by one we went up to her and gave her the gifts, we decided to give them now instead of at her party as there will be too many people over there.

Noah gave her a beautiful diamond necklace set that glimmered, Cassie gave her one of those massive teddy bears that were bigger than you and you could cuddle with claiming that she can cuddle with it when she feels lonely without Noah, making her blush a deep red. Nate gave her some perfume that I told him to get for her, seriously, that boy didn’t know what to get for her. Last but not least, I bought her the new Beyonce album and the new Justin Bieber album, since she’s been wanting it for a long time. I also gave her a massive card which all of us signed.

“Aww thank you guys, this is the best start to my birthday ever! July 7th is always the best day!” She laughed and ushered us out of her room, claiming that the bitch Rochelle will be here soon.

We all piled out of her room and walked towards our own room discreetly, since its past curfew. We arrived at our rooms and snuggled into bed, falling asleep instantly.

9 hours later...

My first thought when I woke up that morning? Crap I’m late. I only had 30 minutes to shower, get dressed and have breakfast. Okay bun breakfast, It’s 10 in the morning; I’ll be able to get through my Art lecture until 12. My lecture starts at 10:35.

I quickly had my shower and wore a black top with a cross on it. I paired it with my black jeans and white converse. I left my hair how it was and put on a black beanie. I didn’t bother with makeup, there’s no time for that. I quickly grabbed my bag and ran off to the kitchen, and upon entering Nate had some pancakes ready for me. I thanked him and quickly munched my food; I’ll never get tired of his fantastic cooking. Nate and I then walked together to our lecture.
