"Woah Josh, you're gonna kill yourself if you keep blowing up balloons!" I heard Larry yell from their trailer, catching my attention.
"It'll be worth it if we have exactly 100 balloons. That's what she said she wanted," he replied, out of breath. I was confused, who would want exactly 100 balloons that had to be blown up without a pump?
"I'm sure she'll love it no matter what. But I think that she'd prefer if you were alive," a new voice said, I immediately placed it. Tristan was here. I quickly walked away, we hadn't spoken since he told me how he feels. As I was walking I ran into Olivia, who seemed to notice how distressed I was.
"Salem, what's wrong? Who hurt you? I will slap someone with my flip flop," She looked around behind me to see if someone was following me, I shook my head. She looked at me with a serious face and I caved, telling her all that had happened.
"Tristan is here. I haven't talked to him since he told me he liked me and now I'm freaking out. He's hanging out with Joshua and they are blowing up balloons?" I ran my hand through my hair. Why is he here? If he's here is Bellamy here?
"We know he's here, it was supposed to be a surprise, for your birthday," She looked down as if she had ruined something. I smiled at her, suddenly happy.
"You guys got them all the way here, for me?" I felt tears filling my eyes, I guess this is what I get for being on my period the week of my birthday.
"Oh please don't cry! And don't let Joshua know that you know. He planned the whole thing and would be devastated if the whole thing was ruined," She looked genuinely concerned for his feelings and I nodded, promising to act totally surprised later when the party was supposed to happen.

"Get in the car bitch, we're going shopping," Josh said in a mock girl voice, causing me to laugh. We had just finished filming for the day and Josh wanted to hang out.
"Okay Regina George," I said, climbing into his old jeep, he got in the driver's side and turned on the car. Immediately the radio began to play Wannabe by the Spice Girls, I began to sing along and Josh turned completely red, like a tomato. I took out my phone and started to record him as he struggled to turn off the song, me laughing the entire time. Finally, he turned it off and I stopped recording, proceeding to post it to my private snapchat story.
"So, the Spice Girls huh?" I asked as he began to pull out of the parking lot, he only shook his head, choosing to ignore me. "Where are we going? I want ice cream," I got comfy in my seat, putting my feet on the dashboard.
"What are you doing?! Get your feet down," He hit at my feet with his hand, I didn't budge. "It's my birthday no meanie!" I swatted at his arm, he rolled his eyes. He kept driving down the highway, giving me no clues as to where we were heading. After sitting in silence for a few minutes I hijacked the AUX cord, playing HAMILTON through the whole car. He groaned but that was the only sound of complaining I heard from him and before I know it he was rapping the Schuyler Sisters with me. Once we were halfway through the album we pulled up to an old building, I couldn't tell what it was but it definitely was not the mall. He got out of the car and went and opened my door. I blushed, no one had ever been this nice, except for Corey, but we don't talk about him. I didn't budge, still wary of his plan. He grabbed my arm and pulled me out of the car, causing me to almost fall on my face.
"Joshua Bassett! That is no way to treat a lady!" He laughed as I yanked my arm away and straightened my outfit. I smiled at him and swatted at his arm, which he dodged. I tripped over a rock on the pavement and landed into his arms. I turned red as he smiled down at me, not making a move to let me go. I admired his curly hair and perfectly brown eyes, they just pulled you in and made you never want to stop looking. He began to lean in and I turned my head and cleared my throat.
"Um, shouldn't we go in? I don't wanna keep everyone waiting," I removed myself from his arms and missed their warmth. He nodded awkwardly and walked towards the door, me following. He opened the door and all of a sudden I was welcomed with lights and people all yelling "surprise!"
