"Bitch you know we have to celebrate then." Taylor says. I chuckle.
"No, we don't." I say.
"Yes, we do. And we are going to. We are all going home right now. We are getting dressed, we are going to dinner then we are going to the club. We are celebrating asap." Derek says.
"Guys, it's okay." I try to convincing them.
"We will be celebrating. That's an order." Skate says.
"Fine." I say agreeing because it's no use to fight it anymore.
When Derek and Skate make up their minds there's no going back.
"Sammy, JJ, Taylor and I will take an Uber home then we will meet you at your place." Gilinsky says.
"Alright that works."
We all walk down to the front doors. "Ms. Hart, could you please lock up my office before you leave?" Derek says.
"Yes Mr. Luh."
"Thanks. You're a doll." He says walking away.
"I will call the Uber." Skate says.
"No need. I brought my car." I say. They follow me to my car.
"Which one?" Derek asks.
"The only one I have." I laugh.
"The one we got you for Christmas in high school?"
"Skate, are you high? You got this car for me on my birthday 2 years ago." I laugh.
"The Audi?"
"No, Skate you drive the Audi. I have the BMW M2 you weirdo."
"Oh yeah." He says.
"Dude really what the hell is wrong with you? Are you high?"
"Mayyybeee."
"Oh Jesus." I say. Him and Derek get in the car then we leave. When we get to the house, I rush upstairs to my room. I see two boxes laying on my bed with my name on them.
"Skate! Derek!" I holler. They rush up the stairs.
"What's up you okay?"
"Yeah but what is this?" I ask.
"Happy 21st birthday Babygirl." They say hugging me.
"I was so caught up today that I literally forgot it was my birthday." I say.
"Go put everything on. We will be downstairs waiting." Skate says. They both disappear downstairs.
I open the box to see a black body con dress with a couple straps across the cleavage area. I open the other box and see a pair of red booties with gold buckles on the side. I smile and put on the dress.
"I guess this is as good as I'll be getting." I say to myself. I take foundation and cover up the white scars on my wrists then walk down stairs.
Derek, Skate, Sammy, Taylor, JJ, & Jack are in the living room wearing tuxes. They are waiting for me.
The girls are also standing there smiling.
"Happy birthday baby!" Ana says hugging me.
"Thanks guys." I smile.
"I'm just going to say it. You look fucking amazing tonight Nivea." Jack says. I blush a little.
