Ella's Birthday Outfit Above
Ella | Car
I was upset and a little hurt.
Kelly and I got dolled up to go to the restaurant just for my brother and sister not to show up. I was upset because we waited over an hour, one hour and ten minutes to be exact just for them to not show. I called them and got no reply for both of them. Voicemail after voicemail.
I was hurt because they forget about us. It's like old times, they promise something and then break the promise. They get my hopes up just for them to crush them.
Kelly was spending the night at my house tonight because one, she's never been to my house, well the inside to be exact, two, she says I needed "comforting". She doesn't want me to try and kill them, and three, it was already planned. While we were getting dressed, we were talking and I asked if she wanted to spend the night. She said yes and here we are now.
I pulled into the garage and cut the engine while wiping my eyes.
I silently cried all the way here. I was so close to forgiving them and then this happens.
"I know you're not okay but if it helps, I got you something." Kelly said with a gentle smile.
I looked over at her with a smile.
"Kind of."
"Let's go inside then I'll give it to you."
"Alright."
We stepped out of the car and headed to the garage. I got ready to put my key in but I noticed it was a key already broken off in it.
"What the..." I trailed off, causing Kelly to look at the key hole.
"Who did that?"
" I don't know. I'm usually the one doing it. Come on, let's just go around front."
We walked out of the garage and to the front door. I unlocked it and we went inside, it was pitch dark, which made me nervous because we never leave it pitch dark because Gracie is afraid of a dark house.
"Hey Ella?" Kelly asked.
We began walking into the living room.
"Yeah?"
I screamed and nearly jumped out of my skin as all of the lights cut on and people jumped out from nearly every spot in the living room, hallway and kitchen.
"SURPRISE!" They all screamed.
"I almost thought you weren't going to make it." Gracie said, coming from the living room area with Grayson with a Birthday Girl banner in her hands.
"You freaking stood us up!" I screamed at them.
"Yeah because of this. That was a distraction." Grayson said.
I am so stupid.
How didn't I notice that?
"I feel so stupid." I said, laughing and holding my head in embarrassment.
"Don't. You're smarter than Gracie and I combined." Grayson said, making Gracie hit him.
"Shut up. I'm smart." Gracie mumbled.
I looked at Kelly.
"You knew about this?" I asked.
"Yeah, I had to make sure you didn't come back here before six." She said, laughing.
I smiled at the three of them before looking at the people that was looking at the four of us.
"Thanks, for this." I said, pulling them into a group hug.
"You're our sister, we had no choice really." Grayson said, causing Gracie to smack him again.
"You're so welcome." Gracie said.
"Yeah." Kelly agreed.
"So quick question." Gracie stated.
We broke the hug.
"Yeah?" Kelly said.
"How in the hell do you break the keys off!?" Gracie asked, making us laugh. "I had so much trouble trying to get the freaking key off." She finished.
"Yeah she had to use a hammer." Gray said chuckling, which earned him a smack from Gracie.
"I have skill." I said, shrugging.
"Of course you do. Here, put this on." She said, handing me the banner.
I slipped it on and she fixed my hair.
"ALRIGHT, LET'S PARTY!" Gracie screamed.
There were speakers in the corners of the room and they began to play What They Want by Russ. People went to the center of the floor and began to dance, some sat at the tables that were off to the side and some went out back to the backyard.
"Come on, I'll show you the set up." Gracie said.
"Where's your room? I'll take our bags up." Kelly said.
"Upstairs, second door on the left. If it's locked it's the Gold key." I said, handing her my two bags and keys.
"Alright. Be back soon." She stated, walking off.
"Alright." I said.
Gracie looped her arm through and pulled me from the hallway and to the living room. There were tables on each side of the walls. Underneath the tv was a long table with presents on it. On the tv was a slideshow of me. There were colorful groups of balloons in each corner of the living room. There was a large customized black and pink Happy 17th Ella Grace banner on the wall.
We pushed through the bodies and headed into the kitchen. There were two long tables side by side with walking space in between them stacked with food and spoons on plates. There were two liters of soda and juice to the sides with cups along with different types of alcohol and jolly ranchers with skittles.
On the other side of the kitchen was a large desert table with just about every kind of candy and desert ever heard of. It had different colored light strings going behind the table making it even more gorgeous.
"Aren't you going to ask me if I like it?" I asked, examining the kitchen in awe.
"Not yet. You haven't see it all yet."
She dragged me outside and my jaw dropped. There were floats in the pool along with some people. On the back of the house were was a large white sheet with a movie being projected on it. There was a cart thing with a projector on it along with some movies. To the far back was another snack table with large light up letters that spelled out MOVIE in front of the table with an arrow in front of it.
"So, do you like it?" Gracie asked, nervously playing with her fingers.
"Like it? I love it!" I exclaimed, still looking around the backyard in awe and shock.
I can't believe they'd do something this huge for me.
"Oh good. I was worried you wouldn't for a minute."
"I love it Gracie." I said, smiling at her relieved face. "Thank you so much for this."
"Of course. Your honestly the best sister anyone could ask for. Even through everything I did to you, you were always still there at the end of the day."
"I'll always be here." I said, pulling her into a hug.
"Me too." She paused. "You can't get rid of me even if you tried." We laughed.
We stood there hugging for a minute before pulling away.
"Let's party." She said, pulling me back into the house.
We went inside as they began to play Party Rock Anthem by LMFAO, making me laugh.
"Come on, let's dance." I said, dragging her to the living room where others were dancing.
"Okay okay I'm coming." She laughed.
We got in front of each other and began to dance.
"You look pretty." I said, making her smile.
"Oh thanks. I had to bring out the prettiest boots." She said, making me laugh. "You look nice too. Who knew you had legs." She finished, making me almost snort.
"Me I guess but thanks. I mean you did pick it out." I said, twirling.
"I have good taste, don't I."
"Yeah, whatever." I said, playfully rolling my eyes.
