"Lina, what are you doing for your birthday next month?" Darcie asked me while we were in free period.
My birthday was on March twenty-first, less than a month away.
"I wanted to have a formal party," I told her.
"So like a Sweet Sixteen then?" she asked.
"Exactly," I nodded.
"Have you started panning it yet?"
"No, but that's what you're going to help me with," I told her.
"Perfect," she smiled.
Every day after school and on the weekends, for the next two weeks, Darcie would either came over to my house or I would go over to her house to plan for my party.

"So, your birthday's on a Friday," Darcie reminded me.
"Then let's just have the party on the twenty-second," I told her.
"What are we going to do for music?" I asked Darcie as we sat in her kitchen.
"Well, we could make a playlist?" she suggested.
"That works," I nodded. "But I kind of wanted to have some live music, too. Not just music playing."
"How about us?" Dana called from Darcie's room where he, Cole, and Mark were playing Call of Duty: Black Ops.
"What about you guys?" Darcie and I walked to them.
"We can perform!" Dana told us, never taking his eyes off of the TV screen.
"You know," I looked to Darcie. "That wouldn't be a bad idea."
"Not a bad idea at all," she agreed with me.
"I mean, we do have actual fans now," Cole reminded us.
It was true. Over the time that they've been posting covers, they have almost ten different covers up now, they've gained real fans. Their fans call themselves "5ers" and basically all of them follow the guys on Twitter, Instagram, and all other social media. It's pretty cool if you ask me. I guess that they really have Roshon Fegan, Diggy Simmons, and Zendaya to thank for that. Thanks to Roshon posting the picture with Dana as his "twin" and the three of them posting our group pictures form California Adventure and promoting their covers. They've gotten a whole lot more successful since then.
"What would you guys sing?" I asked them.
"Now that will be a surprise," Dana smiled still staring at the screen.
Darcie and I walked back into her kitchen.
"So now that the music is all sorted out, what are you going to wear?" she asked me.
"I have no clue," I rested my chin on my hand. "Let's go shopping next weekend?"
"Perfect," she smiled and nodded.

I honked my horn after parking outside of Emily's house. Darcie, Nikki, Alex, and I were all in my car since I had the biggest one and we were all driving to a dress store about forty-five minutes away from Burbank.
Emily came outside of her house with her shoes in her hands.
"Sorry!" she apologized, getting into the backseat of the car with Nikki and Alex. She slipped her shoes and I started the drive to our first stop.
We went through the Starbucks drive through and I ordered a Cotton Candy Frappuccino, Nikki ordered a White Chocolate Mocha, Alex ordered an Apple Spice Latte, Emily ordered a Caramel Macchiato, and Darcie ordered a Vanilla Bean Frappuccino.
After that, we began the drive to the dress shop.
"What are the guys going to wear?" Alex wondered aloud.
"They're all getting suits today, too," I told her.
Darcie plugged in her phone to the speakers and she blasted the guys' covers.
"You have them on your phone?" I asked her with one eyebrow raised.
"Hey, don't judge! You guys know you listen to them all of the time, too," Darcie defended.
"Of course we listen to them all of the time," Emily laughed.
"But we just don't have their music downloaded," Alex teased.
"Well, I have some of their covers," Nikki admitted.
"Me, too," I added.
"Well then," Emily laughed again.
"This is awkward," Alex added and we all laughed.
After forty-five minutes, we finally got to the shop.
Once we walked inside, a bell chimed and we were greeted by an older woman.
"Hello, ladies!" she smiled at us. "What can I help you with today?"
"We're looking for a dress for my Sweet Sixteen," I told her.
The plan was to get my dress at this shop and then to go to the mall to get everyone else their dresses.
"Okay, well I can definitely help you out with that. May I measure you?" she asked and I moved closer to her so that she could get my measurements. "Any kind of dress that you had in mind?"
"I have no idea, really," I answered as Emily, Darcie, Alex, and Nikki took seats on the chairs in the store. "But I guess that maybe a pink dress would be pretty?"
"That would be nice," she told me. "Okay, let's get you some different styles to try on then?"
She took me to a dressing room and brought me different styles of dresses.
After about a half hour, I was about to give up on finding a dress in that shop when I heard Alex gasp, "Oh my God, Lina!"
"Yeah?" I came out of the dressing room.
Alex held up a high-low, baby pink dress with sequins at the waist.
"Oh my God, that's perfect!" I practically ran to her to get it before going back into the dressing room to try it on.
Next week was going to be perfect.
