For the second night in a row, I find myself laying in my bed holding Archie's phone in my hand, and just starring at it breezily. today was terrible, Olivia and Archie were having a snog competition against some other love couple, and they won! I close my eyes tightly, and try to let the thoughts escape my head, Tomorrow is my birthday, and at long last I will be able to send the text and split them up. I shut his phone off and slip under the covers, my eyes shut and I begin to dream.
"Oh hey there!" Archie calls to me he comes running over and stands in front of me. Olivia follows him, I see her ugly face is covered in ants and bugs, I suddenly feel so faint and Archie and Olivia begin to chorus me name over and over.
"Jade? Jaaadddeeee? JADE!" I wake up instantly, and see my mum sitting on the end of by bed. My eyes hazily adjust, And I notice that she's holding a sparkly blue dress.
"Muuuum, whats the time?" I yawn as I sit up and stretch, She smiles and hands me the dress.
"Here sweetie pie, quick put this dress on and come downstairs as quick as you can!" She says excitedly and then without another word, she opens the door and bolts downstairs, as quick as her legs can carry her.
"Thanks?" I say to myself. I hop out of bed and put on the sparkling dress. Suddenly I hear a masculine voice I've never heard before.
"Battry Loooooww," It call's. I jump and face the bed, It came from the bed! I throw the cover off and find Archie's phone flashing.
"Oh hell, better send that text before it's too late!" I quickly press on the drafts and send it, I then leave the room. I place the phone next to a table with some roses on it, and I rush downstairs.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!" Everyone in the house calls as I throw the door open to the main living room. More presents then I've ever had are spread across the carpet. Tears well in my eyes.
"Wow, it's... it's so... amazing, I mean... how can I thank you enough?" I say as I sit on the big arm chair that has a banner with 15 written all over it.
"You don't!" Lia laughs as she hands me a plate of chocolate cookies. Cherry comes up to me smiling eagerly.
"Open you're presents. You're boyfriend's waiting!" She giggles pointing at Archie as he gathers up the presents and pass them too me. I blush violently and push Cherry away.
"Don't be so stupid!" I say crossly as I pick up the present from Archie. I tear off the wrapping paper to reveal a amazing touchscreen phone.
"Oh my god, this is like.... hell I can't speak again!" I say as Open the box to reveal the phone.
"Mm, my charm must be working, left you speechless have I?" He asks shoving my arm gently. I blush again, And throw him off the arm of the armchair.
"Here, my beautiful baby girl..." My mum smiles as she hands me a big puffy present, the label reads
Dear Jade, Happy 15th Birthday, Have a good One. Love you so much, Mummy and Daddy. xxx
I smile as I rip it open to reveal a puffy fleece coat. It's absolutely beautiful, Its so fluffy and gourjus, I look over at the window, and see that it's snowing again, covering the garden in thick white snow.
"I love it!" I say as I hug my mum and dad. I put it on the side of the armchair and begin to open some more presents.

I thank Lia and Gordon as I put my new camera to the side with all my other presents, I turn back to face everyone, but their faces look cold and sad, My smile fades.
"Now, sweetie... Kiki, Freya and Lily wanted to give this to you." My Dad says softly as he hands me a present. My heard begins to beat incredibly fast as I remember my friends. I blink furiously at the tears trying to keep them in. I open the presents to reveal a giant snow globe, with a picture of us all in the background. It's not the first time I've seen this.
"Hey guys look at this!" I call as we window shop past a personalize shop, I spot a giant snow globe with a picture in the back. "Lets all buy one of these with a picture of us together!" I say excitedly as Kiki, Freya and Lily come over. We all agree and walk into the shop.
"I'm affraid I can't reduce the price. It costs £100, and that's all it ever will, unless I increase it!" Says the lady at the counter.
"What so it costs £100 for one? Just one that's a bloody rip off!" Kiki yells crossly at the lady.
"Get out you aggressive children, learn to grow up, immature little spoiled brats!" The bar lady screams at us as she points at the door, My heart sinks to the floor.
How were they able to afford it? I realize I can't hold the tears in anymore, I get up and pick up the coat mum and dad gave me.
"I'm sorry, I'm just going to go outside, I need some fresh air." I croak as the first tear manages to free itself and slide down my cheek.
"Okay honey." Says My mum. I leave the room and hear them whispering, but I couldn't care less.

"This coat is amazing, It keeps me so warm." I say to myself as I whirl about the snow, and wipe the fluffy sleeve across my face, and soaks up the remains of the tears. The snow falls all around me, I look up at the sky, and let the snow land and melt on my face.
"Hey!" Archie calls from behind me. I turn around and spot Archie running up to me. when he arrives he looks at my face. "Are you okay?" He asks quietly after a few minutes pass. Hell how I fancy him, especially when he looks at me that way.
"Yeah, just those memories again..." I say gingerly, as my eyes meet his.
"Oh, anyway," He lowers his voice. "I have one last present for you." I look at his hands expecting to see a phone case or something, but then...
His warm lips meet mine, butterflies form in my stomach, my heart thumps out of my chest, I close my eyes trying to treasure the moment, He stops and takes himself away, His warmth is replaced by the cold breeze. I realize I have just been kissed.
"D-Did you... Did you like that?" I ask hopefully, desperate for more. A smile whips across his face, he nods.
"I've been waiting to do that for ages he said." I suddenly feel like I'm about to faint, His arms reach under mine, and his hands wrap around my waist, I loosely wrap mine around his neck, This time I'm ready. His head comes towards mine, I close my eyes and once again feel the warmth of his lips, We don't just do it once though, we do it lots.
Suddenly we fall into the snow on the ground, still kissing. we pull apart giggling, and take in another breath, then we lean in again and kiss once more.
"O.M.F.G!" I hear Olivia's voice in the distance, I imagine her desperately crying, begging for Archie, But then it hits me, I didn't imagine it, I heard it! At the same time me and Archie turn to see Olivia staring at us open mouthed.
