Running into Love

Chapter 34

One month later

We decided to stay home for a month finalizing our plans to travel before we headed off again. The time passed by quickly as Jessie worked at his dad’s auto shop and I worked at a café to get my barista training up to date. Jessie and I would see each other most nights after we both finished work, we would either be at my parent’s house or his parent’s house. We decided that when we came home after travelling we would move in together.

Before we left to travel, Danni decided we were going to have a goodbye party, no was not the answer she wanted to hear. The trip we had planed was going to last around a year and Danni had decided for us that we needed to say goodbye to almost everyone we had ever met before we left. 

2 days before we left for our first destination, Africa, we headed over to Danni and Harry’s, house, which was on a secluded acre block. When we arrived, Danni, who was running around shouting orders at several different people, greeted us. 

‘No no no what are you doing I said to put the booze over there’ Danni yelled at two guys who were heaving a big container full of different alcoholic drinks.

‘Jessie, Jane welcome to your amazing good bye party!’ Danni yelled loudly from across the other side of the yard as she spotted us.

‘Oh god’ I mumbled into Jessie’s arm as I felt his body shake as he chucked at Danni and me.

Once she yelled at another guy to get the music playing, Danni ran over to us and hugged us both. Danni showed us the set out of the party; she had enough alcohol to start her own liquor store, in big containers all over the backyard, and enough food to soak up all that alcohol, laid out on tables, there were also tents set out for people to sleep in rather then driving home. 

She then sat us in two chairs labeled with our names on them as Harry appeared from out of the house. He grinned at Danni as she beamed back at him. It seemed Harry was the only one Danni wasn’t yelling at, they really did make a great couple. 

30 minutes after we arrived people started to turn up to the house. Music was playing over speakers and the same guys that were setting up the food and drinks were now chauffeuring cars. Danni had planned the party down to ever second.

Jessie and I chatted to many different people from school, work and also family. Danni planned for people to crash in tents outside once the party was over and Jessie and I to sleep inside the house. At around 3am we snuck away from the party and went to sleep in the spare room.

We woke up the next day around 12pm. Jessie and I didn’t have hang overs, unlike many others who had stayed the night in tents. Danni had organized enough food to cook up a make shift lunch for everyone. Once she feed everyone Danni started to move people on, she was not looking to hold another party for a long time, that fact that she had a wicked hang over may have been a factor.

 After everyone left and Jessie and I said our thanks and goodbyes to Danni and Harry, we headed home to start packing.
