*Hours before the party*
We knock on Sam's door waiting for her answer. She quickly opens it and greet us hugging us.
"Thanks for coming to help me girls!", she says happily.
"No problem. Thats what friends are for", Mary says entering the house.
I have never been on Sam's house before, we just met at the twins house. It was big, on the entrance it had a fountain, and everything was impecable.
"You house is amazing!", I say to her.
"Thanks! My mom is an interior designer, so she loves decorating it", she laughs and lead us to the living room .
We spend the next hours gossiping and helping her to get the house ready. Her parents were not going to be home because they were out of the town for business issues. Just as we were almost finishing, she approaches me and whispers. "Are you going to tell them about your plan?".
"Um... I think its better if only four of us know....".
"So, I guess you need to play sick right now, so they also buy it", she laughs.
I have never been good on acting, but there was no other option. I begin saying I was feeling nauseous, and I fake running to the bathroom. They all follow me, but I close the door. As soon as I open it, they all begin asking if I was feeling ok. "No, I don't feel good at all".
"You are not pregnant are you? I don't need a little Jackson running around". That made me cringe. The idea of having a child with that monster... just... never.
"Why everybody thinks I am pregnant! My dad thought the same when I told him....". As soon as those words leave my mouth, Sam opens her eyes signing me to shut up. I messed up, I was about tho say 'when I told him I love Grayson...'. Now, they are all waiting for me to finish the sentence. "Um... when I told him I was not feeling pretty good this morning".
"So you have been sick since then?", Mary asks.
"Yeah... I thought it was nothing, but I guess it actually is. I think I am going to lay down for a bit, and then leave. I don't feel in the party mood right now...".
"Awww, too bad! I love going to parties with you!", Mary says. "So, I guess we will see you on Monday at school?".
"Yes, enjoy the night though!", I smile. I say goodbye and begin to walk upstairs. Mary and Sam walk to the living room, but Jane doesn't.
"Emma... you really think you are fooling me?", she laughs.
"I don't know what you are talking about....", I try to deny it.
"Come on! You are my best friend, I have known you for almost my entire life. I know when you are pretending", she crosses her arms and raises her eyebrows.
"Jane... I am sick... I - ".
"Just tell me the truth. I kind of feel hurt that you are keeping this from me".
I hesitate for a moment, but realize she is telling the truth. Jane has always been special with me, and she is a true friend.
"Fine, but lets go upstairs".
.....
"Oh my God! I actually never expected this", she says as soon as I finish telling her everything. And by everything, I mean... everything. "I knew you liked Grayson, but not that you were already back together!", she hugs me. "I am so happy for you! He seems like a really good guy! Not like that asshole Jackson that I can't believe he slapped you".
"Ughhh I know, don't remind me. I actually though he was not that much of a horrible person... I mean, all this years I still had... hope? But I guess I was wrong".
"I always told you to leave him!".
"I know! But finally the day has come!", as I say that, my phone begins ringing. It's Jackson. I show the screen to her and she nods.
"Hey babe!", he says as soon as I accept the call.
"Hey", I said not in a good mood.
"Um... Is something wrong?".
"Kind of.... I am sick...".
"What? So you are not going to the party tonight?".
"Sorry Jackson, but I really dont feel ok".
"Come on! Is the party of the year! And we are the couple that rules the school! Besides, I thought we were going to have some... fun, you know?".
"Jackson... I am sick! I can't just go because of that! But you should go, have fun with your friends, I don't want to stop you from that".
"Ok, I will keep you update if something happens", he laughs. "So... see you on the weekend?".
"Yeah... bye!", I hang up.
I look at Jane who is waiting for an answer. "Well... I guess the plan just started", I smile.
"He deserves this".
"I know... besides, he just showed me how much he cares about me. He didn't even asked me if I wanted him by my side tonight that I was 'sick'".
....
*Back in Emma's house*
"Ready for tonight babe?", he asked me. 'Babe'.... that word coming from his mouth made my heart stop for seconds.
"I have been ready for almost two years now", I smile and hug him.
"I am glad you are finally ending things with that prick", he lifts my chin.
"I actually need to thank you for that... If it wasn't for you, or Ethan or Sam... I would probably still be stuck with Jackson".
He kisses me, his lips are soft, and I feel sparkles, just like the first time we kissed at the Hamptons. Who would have thought that a summer love would actually change my life forever?
The door opens abruptly, "Hey, Emma are you rea--. Ohhhh sorry". Jane says awkwardly.
We both look at her for a minute, and laugh.
"Wha-? Its not my fault you cant find yourselves a room!", she smiles.
"Jane... we are in my room", I laugh.
"I guess, I should let you get change", Grayson says and leaves the room still smiling.
Jane stands by the door looking at me. "What?", I ask.
"Its just... weird... I guess I got used to see you with Jackson. But I can notice you are really happy with Grayson. Jackson was never like this with you...", she smiles.
"I know... and I am more happy than ever", I look at the window. "Well, lets get ready for this party".
She closes the door before saying, "tonight will be EPIC!", we both laugh.
