I'm currently sat in my room doing my makeup. Tonight is the release of my ep and last week when I was on FaceTime with Matt they all told me they've rented out a venue here for me to have a party. Alahna and Nate of course were in on it and invited a bunch of friends and family, it makes today even more exciting. Right as I'm finishing up I hear a knock on my front door and my mother answering it, not long after she comes up holding a bouquet of pink roses.

"These are for you." She says setting them on my vanity

"Thanks mom." I smile

"They're not from me." She smiles back handing me a card before leaving my room

I open up the card and start reading.

'I'm so proud of you Ang, I hope you have the best night tonight and I'm so sorry again that I can't be there. You mean the absolute world to me and I'm so excited for everyone to hear your music. I'll see you in exactly on week. I love you. ~ Matt'

I feel a small pang of hurt hit my heart, I wish he could be here with me tonight. I close the note and set it with the flowers. I take a deep breath trying to keep tears in and head downstairs to leave for the venue.

"Are you excited?" My mother asks turning on the car

I nod my head still feeling a little upset.

"I'm sorry he's not here, but you know he wishes he could be." She says reaching out to grab my hand

"I know mom, I just miss him a lot and-" I stop myself and let out a sigh

"Angeline it's okay to be upset, this is a huge night for you, it's okay to be upset that he's not here for it." She squeezes my hand

"It's just, I get it you know? I get why he's not here and I'm not mad at him for that at all, in fact I'm so happy for him and everything that he's been doing. But yeah I am upset he's missing this, I just feel like I can't be because there's nothing he can do about it and I know he feels bad already. I don't know, I guess I just really wanted to experience this with him." I finally say

"You have every right to be upset, but don't let it consume you. Make sure to still experience tonight and not be in your head." She says

I nod my head and watch as we pull into the venue. We came early to make sure everything was perfect. As I hop out of the car I see Alahna running up to me arms open.

"Release day!" She squeals into the hug

I smile and squeeze her tight. We head into the venue together and everything looks absolutely perfect. It's not long after people start to arrive and the venue gets full. I've been walking around greeting everyone and taking photos for majority of the night. I feel really good, being around this many people would normally make me really anxious but I don't feel like that tonight. In fact I'm not even nervous about my ep coming out, I just feel happy.

"Okay everyone please take your seats for speeches." My mother speaks into the mic

I take my seat at the table in the front with my mom, Alahna, Nate, a few other close friends from school and the triplets parents. Alahna stands up and heads for the mic. I'm sat at the back of the round table but in the middle so I'm perfectly facing the stage.
