Today was the big day where I turned twenty one.
Now normally, I'd be excited, but when the only people you want to spend it with are on tour, the day kinda sucks.
I skimmed through the post, and smiled as I picked out the cards from my English family who bothered to keep in contact with me. I didn't hold out any hope for my own parents sending me anything.
I opened the cards, smiling at the small gifts which fell from them and I stooped, picking them up and placing them on the side. I placed the cards on the mantelpiece before I went and got changed into my 'Boner' shirt and denim shorts. I pulled my phone out to see four new texts.
Alex: Happy birthday gorgeous. Can't wait to see you when we get back x
Jacky: Happy Birthday blondie! I miss you x
Zack: Happy birthday goldie! x
Rian: Happy birthday Char. See you soon x
I rolled my eyes at the lot of them and returned to each of them with a thanks and a miss you. Once that was done, I looked around the room and sighed.
My doorbell went off and I opened the door to see Emma and Chris stood there, smiles on their faces.
"You two are here because...?"
"It's your birthday and you need to get ready for your party." Emma grinned and Chris rolled his eyes.
"Basically, everyone at work decided to throw you a party seeing as you're turning twenty one. And you have no option but to get changed. And the only reason I'm here is because I knew that you wouldn't understand." He teased and I stuck my tongue out at him.
"Figured." I muttered as I let them into my house. Emma grabbed my hand and pulled me up the stairs with Chris laughing.
"Right. We need to make you look smokin' hot." I rolled my eyes.
"For who? Alex is on tour, so no." I gave her a stern glare and she pouted.
"Please Lottie. I'll beat off the guys and stick with you?" I hated it when she pouted and she full well knew this. I sighed and she grinned, knowing what my answer would be.
"I love you." She sang and I rolled my eyes before laying flat on my bed.
"This better be worth it. Dragging me away from movies and ice cream." I grumbled.
"Trust me, you'll have a blast." Emma sang from my closet. I just let my eyes trace the wallpaper as I listened to her rummage through my clothes.
After half an hour, I heard her let out a whine of annoyance which made me smile.
"How do you not have stuff to go out in? Seriously girl." She grumbled, making me giggle and Chris rolled his eyes. "Well looks like I'm going to improvise." At that word, my giggles stopped.
"You ruin any of my clothes and you'll die." I warned her.
"Honey, I'm the fashion designer here." She winked as I sat up and I let out a loud groan.
"I hate you."
"I love you more. Now get your gorgeous ass out of them shorts and into these skinny jeans." I followed her directions and took my skinny jeans and headed into the bathroom. I got the shorts off and slid on my jeans, making sure that I was comfortable before going back out.
Emma pointed to a spot in the living room and I did so. She knelt on the floor and I tried not to laugh as my dirty mind kicked in.
"Chris is over there you know." I grinned at her. It took a few seconds and She blushed furiously whilst Chris started laughing. I felt her hand hit my thigh and I clutched my stomach.
