Bryant's 26th Birthday Party!

I was invited to Bryant's birthday party. I mean, why wouldn't I be. Today. Today's the birthday party. I was 100% the twins would be there and I wasn't sure if I wanted to go there or not.

I picked up my phone and dialed James number.

James- Hey

Emma- Hey, so I don't think i'm gonna go to Bryant's party today

James- What?! Why not? You have to go he's your friend

Emma- Yea, but the twins will be there

James- So? Fuck them. You're not gonna let your ex stop you from living and having fun right?

Emma- I mean, I guess

James- No not I guess. Live a little. You haven't gone out in three months. Now go get ready

And with the that, he hung up the phone.

But he was right. I shouldn't let my ex stop me from having fun with my own friends.

I'm going to that fucking party.

I change into my already chosen outfit and put my sunglasses on.

Let's do this.

I hop into my car pulling up the location on google maps. I start follow directions to a dock, which took me 30 minutes to get to.

I saw a bunch of people, waiting by a boat, standing.

Thank god, I saw some friends.

I quickly park my car and head out too the dock.

"Hey guys," I smile to my friends hugging them.

"Happy birthday Bryant!" I laugh giving him a hug.

"Thank you. I'm so glad you came." He replied.

"Me too. Me too."

Soon enough everyone starts piling into the boat. I saw the twins at the corner of my eye, standing with water in their hand, talking to each other. I looked the other way and started talking to Olivia.

"Hey, did you try the smoothies?" Olivia asks hold up a drink in her hand. I shake my head and she points to a little bar in the back of the boat. "I'll be right back." I laugh.

I walked over to the bar and ask for a strawberry smoothie. I sat down at one of the bar stools, patiently waiting while watching the guy make my smoothie.

"Same for me, please." I hear a familiar voice say.

But I don't dare look. Instead, I start poking at my nails, a common behavior of mine for when I get nervous.

He sits two stools away from me.

"Didn't think you would come." He says.

I finally turn my head, looking at him, while he was just looking straight. "Why wouldn't I?" I asked firmly.

He shrugged his shoulders "You knew I was gonna be here."

"You think I'm going to stop going places just because you will be there." I scoffed.

"Here you go, ma'am." The guy handed me my smoothie flashing a smile.

"Thanks," I grab my smoothie and walk away.

Been a dick, always a dick.

Let's just see where this party takes us.
