It's officially your girl's 18th birthday and boy am I hype. Stephanie's birthday was two days ago but ever since she found out she was pregnant she been staying in the house. So tonight Nigel said he wanted to take me out for dinner.
It is also the last day of school and I am proud to say I am officially a senior! Ended all my classes with and 85 or higher and I'm so proud of myself. I honestly never saw myself succeeding when it came to school.
This morning I woke up to a couple of birthday messages. But what was so funny was that Carter had the nerve to post a picture of us from when we first got together.

Happy birthday to the love of my life. Forever my baby girl, forever my ride or die❤️ - with Crystal Shining✨I chuckled to myself and replied the middle finger emoji and kept it scrolling. Of course Stephanie sent me a whole essay on how much she loved me and couldn't wait to turn when she felt better. I told her thanks and saw that Nigel had texted me saying that he wanted to take me to school this morning.
Nigel and I are so happy just vibing and chilling. Honestly we haven't even had a talk about what we are but that doesn't matter to me. I wanna take things as slow as possible. I replied with a yes and quickly got up and got dressed.
I threw on a yellow dress with brown sandals and a matching brown bag. With my hair pinned up in a bun and my lipgloss popping. And of course your girl could never go out without her gold hoops.
I was extremely excited for today and not just cause I'm a legal adult now but because I could start apartment hunting. I went over my grandfathers papers last night and saw that he left me 30,000$. I also saw that he only left my grandmother enough to pay off for the house which was only 10,000$. I finally understand why she hates me.
I heard a horn and began to walk outside. As I closed my door I saw Nigel standing in front of his car with a teddy bear, a heart shaped box, bouquet of flowers, and Victoria Secrets bag. I walked towards him with a huge grin on my face. He gave me a kiss on the cheek and handed me the flowers.
"Happy birthday to beautiful ass baby."
"Aw Nigel. This is so sweet. You didn't have to get me anything."
"Now what kind of guy would I be if I didn't get gifts for the person I'm sleeping with and maybe girlfriend." He grinned as he handed me everything in his hand and opened my car door. After getting in he closed it and got in on his side."Oh I'm not pulling off until you look in the bag." I giggled and began to pull out matching pairs of bras and panties and my favorite smell goods. I also saw a light baby blue sweat suit with a matching sports bra.
"This has to cost a lot. I never even buy this much at once."
"Don't worry about the price. Embrace the gift. Now look in the flowers." I looked over at his huge grin and could tell he was excited for whatever the hell was in the flowers. I put my other gifts in the backseat and saw a necklace and ring box from pandora. I opened the ring box first and saw a rose gold ring with pink crystals formed into the letter C.
