It's finally my birthday! I've been waiting forever to turn 18. I'm a legal adult now, so exciting and nerve racking too. As I was putting makeup on, my parents barged in. I scream and smear my makeup.

"Happy birthday!" They shout while holding cake

"Oh, thank you, but you scared me and ruined my makeup." I laughed

They laughed along as they sing the birthday song. I may be an adult now but I still love this song. Once they finished, I thought about a wish and blew out the candles.

"What did you wish for?" my mom asked

To meet him

"Can't tell." I said instead

She smiled and they walked downstairs chatting happily. I sigh to myself happily and fix my makeup. Ding. I glance at my phone.

Jack Daniels: Hey, Happy Birthday!

Mary Stevens: How'd you know it was my birthday?

Jack Daniels: Facebook notification..?

Mary Stevens: Oh.. right lol

Jack Daniels: Yeah XD good birthday so far? Make any wishes?

Mary Stevens: Yeah actually, and yes

Jack Daniels: What did you wish for?

To meet you

Mary Stevens: Can't tell lol

Jack Daniels: Dang lol, well I'm sure you have a busy day today so I'll ttyl

Mary Stevens: Okay ttyl

I put my phone in my pocket and race downstairs to eat breakfast. I reach for the cake, but my mom hits my hand.

"Ah, ah, after school, honey." she shakes her head

I groan and make eggs instead. Ding Dong. My dad strides to the door and looks through the peephole. 

"It's Amber!" he shouts

"Open it then!" I shout back

He opens the door and I can barely hear anything, just hushed whispers. They finally came into the kitchen and I prepare our breakfast.

"Happy birthday!" Amber squeals and pulls me in for a hug

"Thank you!" I laugh and hug her

She pulls out a small box and hands it to me, "It's one of the gifts I got for you."

I thanked her and opened it; it's a beautiful friendship necklace. I gasp softly and put it on right away. She pulls out her half and puts it on and smiles. 

"Oh you gotta go!" my mom exclaimed

Amber and I rushed to eat and get to school. We just made it in time, so we ran to our lockers, then to class. As soon as I sat down, I sighed happily. Today is going to be a good day.
