On March 25, 1993 both Casey and I were brought into this plant. By well we don't really know who,both of us are adopted by our current family's, we love them just like they were the ones that gave birth to us. Most of the time when we tell this story people think we are sisters, but actually we met though school. At first we hated each other then is was Casey break up with a boy the name of Tristan that lead us to one another. See the boy is my real blood cousin, and it made me mad, because of how he treated her after the break up and I felt bad for her so we teamed up to bring him down from popularity. The rest is in the far past. The funny thing is that Casey and I have never been in a fight the 13 years we have been friends.
Every year since we met we have always calibrated our birth days together, we even had one over Skype once. This year I had Chris and Elijah planing it, so our expectations were not high what so ever. So I told them a hold month before so they had time to make mistakes, the funny part is that a month ago Casey and Elijah didn't even know each other. My plan was to introduce them at the party and let the birds and the bees fly, but it happened faster than I thought. Casey grew up so fucking fast. One thing I found out was that three days after they started dating Casey made a unexpected visit to the hospital with him and now I'm overly stressed not knowing what the hell it was about, also she has been eat different that normal. She takes pills every morning and her body looks like it's changing, I though I could talk to her this morning , but she was gone before I got up.
Around time for the party Casey and I where standing on the stage back stage waiting to see how the boys did. I could see Casey sitting at a mirror looking at her hair and her body in her light blue, bedazzle, short, dress. " Ready Casey?" I said walking over to her and grabbed her hands.
"Yeah," She took a long period of time and the started again" I have been wanting to tell you tha--..." Casey was cut off by the sound of Chris and Elijah jumping up and down on the stage.
" Ok this has been the moment you all have been waiting for, to see the girls on their soon to be fucking amazing birth days," Chris yelled in to the microphone so the crowd of our friends and family could hear him." I think the lovely lady's are ready for their big day so let me introduce the incredibly beautiful Haley Moran" I Hurd my name and sexually walked out on the stage showing off my bright red, kinda plan ,high low dress. Chris handed me the microphone.
" Hello to all of my friends and family that could make it here today, to this surprisingly amazing party for Casey and I. Also thank you to the cooks and the boys for planing and decorating the whole gym,"I said with a shit lode of sarcasm under my voice" Now we are missing the other birthday girl and she need to get her sparkly ass out on this boy smelling stage." Slowly Casey walked out on the stage and join Elijah next to me . I handed her the mic, cause what the hell Chris did it to me, now it's Casey's turn.
" Thank you to my friends and family that could show up to our special day here. It could not have happened if these two stinky boys did not go the the trouble of doing this amazing party. Also thank you for being our boyfriends and not wanting to kill us yet that we know of." She went on for about another five or six minutes. Then I see her start crying. Of course every one saw her crying before we could get her back stage.
" Casey what's wrong?"Chris asked, kinda scared.
" Elijah tell them I can't" she quickly said though her hand and and the tears. Elijah took a long deep breath, then walked over and sat down next to her.
" We went to the doctor for a normal monthly check up. It was all good till we walked out into the parking lot."he sounded so afraid of what he was about to say," Kathleen was waiting for us at Casey's car with a gun. After we got close and I tried to make her put the gun down, Kathleen end up shooting Casey in the stomach. I took her back in to the doctor, that why we were gone for so long." I was waiting for the big puncher for what happened that was so bad and why Casey was all tore up about to that she could not tell her bestie for life.
"Elijah just get to the point!"I yelled at him wanting to know what the fuck happened.
"Once she was cleared to go home the doctor told us that's he. Casey was shot the bullet hit some very important things in her body, So Casey can never ever no matter what get pregnant."he was starting to get just as tore up about it as Casey was. I could not take anymore bad news. I ran out the back of the gym and to my car.
I sat by my self for a long time then all of a sudden I here a knock on my car window. I looked from the floor to see it was Elijah. I unlocked the doors and he sat down in the passenger side of the car." I see you are having a hard time just like Chris, try watching it happen right in front of your face and not be able to stop it from happening." I was surprised at how much he was telling me, I was not his first pick for someone to spill his feelings to.
We sat in silence expected for the random sniffles. After a bit I could not hear him crying anymore and it was just me crying." Do you know why Kathleen hates me Haley," I never knew the whole story, but what I had heard was pretty bad for such a quiet boy like him. I still wanted to hear it from him so I nodded, with a no." Well as you know Kathleen and I dated for the freshman year of college." It was the talk of the school that year, " That year we went from first base to third really fast and skipped second base completely. One day she pulled me out of class to tell that she was pregnant. I was there with her until we got into a really big fight over something stupid, she was four months pregnant when we broke up, I never talked to her for the next five months." More he talked the safer he sounded.
"Once I did not hear from her about the baby I kinda got scared and went looking for her. I found her she was In Rehab with the baby, the baby's name was Cody. Later on after seeing her in rehab I found out that she gave up Cody and started school again and now that I'm dating Casey she does it want what happened to her to happen to Casey."
I sat In Shock at what I was hearing. I was so far gone from the party I had wrote in my head that this was the party's from hell. I felt so bad for him." Elijah I never new that you have a son named Cody. Does Casey know?"
"No, and I don't want her to!", he snapped at me like a dog., " I'm sorry we are both hot messes and don't know what we are doing." I was not sure if he was apologizing or insulting me.
" Does Chris know the real story, and if he do--..." My words were stopped dead in their tracks by his lips crashing into mine like magic. I quickly pulled back and got out of my car, back into the gym I went.
As I walked back into the gym there on the stage stood Chris. " I'm very sorry to tell you very nice people that the party is cancelled for the moment, but help your self to some food and drinks." Then he quickly ran off the stage and headed my way. He started into my eye with worry and care. This was one of those moments that you wish you could capture but it was in your memories So there was no need for a camera.
What happened next might have need a news channel for the moment its self. All of a sudden we hear Casey and Elijah on stage. We turned around to see that they were on stage fighting, we quickly ran on stage and pulled the two away from one another. Could the day get any worse, and the answer. Yes, yes it fucking can.
As we stood there holding them back as gun shot goes off from the back of the room. The people on the floor moved so the person with the gun could make their way to the stage, and of course it just had to be Kathleen holding the gun and she was pointing it at Elijah." What the fuck are you doing at my goddam party Kathleen!"
"Just coming to tell Elijah that yesterday was his three year old sons birthday."all the blood drained from his face And quickly looked from her to Casey who had the same look on her face, the look of complete shock and hate. Caseys hate was not for Kathleen, but it was for Elijah for not telling her.
" You have a fucking son and you never thought to fucking tell me, if you would have just told me I would not be mad." She did not stay mad, she quickly became very sad and fell to her knees. This was the start to the fall of the four.
