"Hi, glad you're here. Come in."

"Hey, so how can I help?"

"I was just finishing putting some stuff away, you can start blowing up the balloons, if you'd like."

"Alright."

"I think we're done."

"It looks great."

"Yeah, thanks to you."

"Give yourself some credit, you had already done so much before I came."

"Now we wait."

"Actually, I'd like to give you my present now."

"Ohh, yes! I've been wondering about that the whole day."

"Here it is."

"Oh. Wow. This is beautiful, Ella. Is that the constellation for Scorpio?"

"Yes, it is. I saw this necklace and I knew you would love it. I absolutely had to get it for you."

"Thank you so much."

"You're welcome."

"Wait, what's that sound?"

"Bad timing?"

"Jordan! I didn't expect you to be home this early."

"Couldn't miss my little sister's birthday party, could I?"

"Oh, Ella, this is Jordan, my brother. Jordan, this is Ella."

"Hi, nice to meet you. I've heard a lot about you."

"All good things, I hope?"

"Of course, who do you think I am?"

"It's nice to meet you too, Ella. Piper has been talking a lot about you too."

"How could I not? Oh, there she goes, blushing again."

"Shut up!"

"I'm going upstairs to freshen up a bit, I'll be back down soon. I think I saw some other people coming, though."

"Okay. Let's get this party started!"
