"come on aubrey lets go in the basement and wait for everyone to come!"

miranda dragged me downstairs, i nearly fell down.

"where are the lights? i cant see anything!"

i had black leggings, a big lifeguard sweatshirt and my light blonde hair straightened in a high ponytail, i had brown bailey button uggs with fuzzy socks that just peaked out of my boots. she flicked on the lights and i could see her clearly. tall, skinny, dark brown hair, she had freckles and a small nose and huge eyes. she was my best friend sense who knows when. her and a couple of our friends are having a sleepover before i leave for california tomorrow. once i could see and my eyes adjusted i saw streamers and balloons and party things everywhere with a huge 'well miss you!' sign. everyone jumped up from behind the couch and everywhere and yelled surprise! i was flushed and my emotions were getting the best of me. tears forming in my eyes i hugged miranda.

"did you do this?!"

she blushed and nodded her head yes. she was choking back tears and she hugged me. we pulled apart and i saw all my bestfriends. ally, we didnt always get along but i still loved her to pieces. my twin Jessica (we literally looked so alike the school put us down as sisters by accident),and chloe. we were all a close knit group and i dont know what im gonna do. were gonna oovoo every night to keep in touch. then i scanned the room and saw tons of my friends then i saw him. brandon, the boy that i'll love with all my heart. we've been dating for two years now ever sense my sophomore year and i cant believe im leaving him. even my mom and dad are upset because they adore him. he's the perfect amount taller then me, brown short ish hair, deep blue eyes, and the perfect smile. we were without a doubt in love. i ran up to him and he hugged me and whispered

'you look stunning as usual'

in my ear. i got my usual chills and butterflies. we kissed then pulled apart. i hugged everyone that came and then i sat down on the couch. brandon came over and put his arm around me and kissed my cheek and i scrunched up my face and miranda got a picture. she giggled and fangirled, i remembered i left my bag upstairs in her kitchen so i ran up to get it incase her stupid annoying brother and his friends take it. i came back down with it and put it in the bathroom hidden so someone wont take it. i grabbed my phone and saw i had a text from a blocked ID it said

'i know your secret'

i was a little disturbed. i tried not to worry about it and just shook it off but i couldnt get it off my mind. and i guess brandon noticed my uneasiness and pulled me aside

"you okay babe?"

"not really"

"c'mon its your going away party! whats wrong"

i showed him my phone and the message.

"i was putting my stuff away and i got this message, i dont know what to do. i'll tell my dad tomorrow i guess but what if they do know my secret?"

"what the one about-"

"yes"

"aw baby its okay, if they do it wasnt your fault. it happened. we talked about this before. want me to hold your phone and if they text again ill call your dad?"

i nodded my head yes and hugged him. oh what would i do without this boy?

we all had a great time, we danced, talked. some drank. i didnt. im not really into drinking and drugs. its not like im a goody girl its just i get anxiety from that stuff and i guess im just not into that. miranda had a drink but that was really it. some people bought me presents which wasnt necessary. i opened miranda's first, it was a huge picture frame/collage of me and her and some of our friends moments, she got me a teddy bear and money and giftcards, she also wrote me a super long note and i tried to read it but i was crying to much to finish it. i hugged her and thanked her, i opened the other ones. i got alot of hand written notes and more memory things. i opened brandons last. he got me a really cute and cheesy card which ill keep for forever. he got me a teddy bear holding a chocolate bar. he knew me too well. he wrote me a note and got me this thing where you flip through photos and he put a bunch of photos of us in it. and a few other things. we talked longer and listened to music, i saw brandon on my phone. i walked over and sat next to him, i leaned on him

"whatcha doinnnn?"

he laughed and held my hand

"you got another text, but dont worry it was from your momma. i told her i had your phone and now were having a nice conversation"

"so now your texting my mom at a party? wow you cool kid"

he playfully punched my arm. it was soon 1 and everyone began to go. me and brandon had some time alone to say our goodbyes. we kissed and hugged and we talked for a good 10 minutes. and then he was gone,

forever.

we stayed up late actually all night just talking and crying and hugging and watching movies. i began to get tired at 7 but i had to leave at 8 because i had a long car ride ahead of me, i could

just sleep then, and on the plane ride too. i flipped through the tablet thing brandon got me. then it was 7:30 and we got up and ate breakfast. i changed into skinny jeans, a tight tank top with a cardigan over it. i pegged my jeans and put on flip flops. i put on mascara and a little eyeliner. i let my hair now and brushed it out. i got my things together and soon enough my mom was at the door. i grabbed all my gifts and i had a little extra time because my mom and mirandas were best friends and they talked for awhile. we all cried and hugged and said our goodbyes and i went in the car with my mom.

"how was it babe?"

"it was amazing! how did you know it was a surpise party?!"

"oh i helped miranda a little"

i gave her a kiss on the cheek

"sorry were doing this babe, we hate to tore you guys away and i know how great your life is right now and-"

"i know mom i know, but its a better opportunity for your job. i get it"

once we got home i helped pack the car and soon enough we were on the road to the airport.
