Gem for Success
"Happiness cannot be travelled to, owned, earned, or worn. It is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude."
-Denis Waitley............................................................After the little incident with Azriel Knight. I was safely on my way home with Logan.
Azriel promised me he would be watching me and my family very closely in case I tried anything stupid. He also said that he would send for me in due time.
I absolutely detested him at this moment. Well that's probably a lie.
Logan parked the car a few blocks away from my house.
"Thanks." I mumbled. Then a thought flashed through my mind.
"Hey so if I invited you to come join my birthday party would you."
"Actually I'm very busy and plus I have a mini birthday party to attend."
"Really, whose is it."
He grinned at me in response.
My eyes widened What were the odds of that being true.
"Today's also your birthday. Wow. I mean happy birthday?"
"Thanks but did you forget you already wished me."
Then it all came back
"By the way happy birthday little miss."
I scoffed.
"Happy Birthday to you too."
He simply smiled.
So much for sarcasm.
I chuckled awkwardly.
"Well you know this is a better reason for you to come join me in celebrating. Come on I'm sure you'll have lots fun."
"Okay Fernanda but just for a little while."
We got to my house in a few minutes.
Immediately I opened the door I was greeted with gaps and sigh's of relief.
"Maria Fernanda where have you been we were so worried." My mom said.
I pulled her into an embrace.
"Mom I'm so glad you made it."
"Who is he." She asked referring to Logan.
"He's a friend, he helped me out sometime ago. I'm sorry I got you all worried. I went for a stroll and lost track of the way and time."
"Fer you're not with Matthew." Laurel asked.
"No why, is he missing." I asked now getting afraid.
"Yes he is but we all assumed you must have take him with you." She said fear evident in her voice.
I turned around and looked at Logan who mouthed that I should be calm.
Just then Misty arrived with Matthew.
"I found him... Fer you're back."
A wave of relief swept through me.
"Fer go get dressed for the party and make it quick."
I immediately went up to my room followed by my trio of best friends.
"Fer please tell us what happened." They chorused.
"There's nothing to say so please help me get ready." They agreed without protesting.
..........................................................
Some time after I went to join the party dressed in blue and wore gold accessories.As soon as I got there all eyes were on me.
Logan told me my mom had been interrogating all the while I was upstairs.
He also complemented me about how stunning I looked and we took a few pictures together.
I cut my cake and made the same wish I had made earlier in the morning.
Logan left in the middle of the party and bid me farewell. He also told me to expect a call from someone in the gang and not to tell anyone what had happened earlier.
The thought that he could have been killed on his own birthday because of me made my stomach churn.
At the end of the party I went to my room to open my gifts while the trio went straight to bed. There was one gift in particular that got my attention.
I went ahead and opened it.
In there I saw a single rose a pair of earrings and a note.
I opened the note and read it.
Happy birthday Fer I'm watching you.
- Azri.I dropped the gift by my bedside table and as I went to bed the only person on my mind was the extremely handsome and dangerous, piercing blue eyed gang leader. Azriel Knight, so did I truly have a happy birthday?
