Back Again, Tommo?

Chapter 2- Best Birthday Ever

GRADE 9

OLIVIAS BRITHDAY

23TH DECEMBER

I woke up this morning because I was really exited! Today is my birthday (does little happy dance) I am really excited. I get out of the bed instantly regretting it! It is bloody freezing. I go to the shower and turn the shower on and stripping of my clothes. Ah much better.

‘’hey there Delilah

How is it in New York City?

I’m 1000 miles away

But tonight you look pretty

Yes you do!

Time square can’t shine

As bright as you’’

I just love that song! It’s my jam.

When I am finished with washing my face brushing my teeth and hair I go to my wardrobe.

‘’what to wear? What to wear?’’ I mumble to myself.

‘’I think you should wear that.’’, the voice that I love said.

‘’LOUIS!!’’ I say while running to hug him. Completely ignoring the fact that I

ONLY HAVE A TOWEL ON!!

‘’happy birthday babe!’’ He says hugging me back.

‘’thanks.’’

‘’anyway. Now your present!’’ he said pulling out a box.

‘’ Louis I told you don’t get me anything!’’ I said

‘’Hahaha.  yes and my mom told me to focus in class! I guess I don’t listen.’’ he said

‘’thank you so much but I need to get dressed first! What did you say I must wear again?’’

‘’this’’ he said going over to my closet and pulling some light blue denim shorts, a black spaghetti strap top and a light pink crop top that says ‘love’.

‘’thank you ’’ I said hugging him.

‘’no problem ’’

I got my underwear and went into my bathroom to get changed. When I was down I walked out and saw Louis sprawled out on my bed. I quickly ran and jumped on the other side of my double bed. When I hit the bed Louis bounced off and hit the ground. I burst in to hysterical laughter.

‘’that. Was. The. Funniest. Thing. I .have. EVER SEEN!!’’ I SAID INBETWEEN FITS OF LAUGHTER.

‘’ ha-ha very funny’’ Louis said in a monotone voice.

‘’I will get revenge Olivia Marie Walker’’ he said

‘’opps’’ I said

‘’anyway for your gift’’ he said getting up and dusting off the imaginary dust.

‘’ here we go’’ he said giving me the small box.

‘’ thank you’’ I said pulling off the purple ribbon.

‘’oh my god’’ I gasped. ‘’it’s amazing!’’ I said admiring the little silver necklace that had the word ’friend' "where is the other halve?" i asked him.

‘’here’’ he said pulling out a chain that said ‘Best' on it.

‘’ no matter what happens even if one of us dies or we aren’t best friends when we are older we must always wear them! Okay?’’ he asked. I nodded my head in response.

‘’ but I doubt we will stop being best friends’’ he whispered.

‘’ forever and always’’ I whispered

‘’forever and always’’ he said just above a whisper.

Right now we were lying on my bed in silent when he spoke up

‘’ what do you want to be when you are older?’’

‘’I want to become a singer, even though I can’t sing. You?’’ I answer.

‘’ what are you talking about?! You have the best voice ever! You sing like an angel! I also want to become a singer and be famous!’’ he said grinning like a Cheshire cat.

‘’I know you’ll be famous Louis!’’ I said hugging him

‘’I love you Ollie.’’

‘’ i love you too!’’ I said

and that was the best birthday ever!
