"don't cheat, keep your eyes closed" Leo said holding my hand and leading me to the house as they threw me a birthday party

"are we there yet?" I asked as I heard doors opening

"a little bit more" he said and I well know my house to know where we were even with eyes closed

"are you ready?" he asked and I nodded

"yes" I said

"you can look now" he said and I opened my eyes

All the family was there. Everyone was here and when I say everyone I mean completely everyone.

Mum, dad, Kyle, both grandparents, aunt Alex and uncle Micheal, Paige, aunt Daisy, uncle Liam, little Andrew man who was born 4 months ago. James, Kennedy, Millie, Phoebe, Reece, Kai, Sophia, Lukas, Timo, Paula, Emilia, Mason, Sophia, Liam.

The house was full of people and I couldn't be happier at the moment. Having all them here at the same time makes me so happy because they were all a big part of my childhood.

Even I said I wanted to spend a birthday weekend with family I thought about parents, Kyle, Leo and his parents, but I don't mind this.

There were silver and purple decorations all around the living room and my lavender bodycon dress.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY" everyone shouted as I just smiled holding back my tears

I felt Leo's hand on my lower back as he lightly rub my back.

Phoebe and Paige were the first one who ran towards me hugging me and almost knocking me on the floor.

"happy birthday G" Paige said

"happy birthday bestie" Phoebe said cupping my face "I missed you" she said and I laughed

"I missed you all" I said as she hugged me once again

••••••••••

"Before I cut this beautiful cake I wanna say thank you to all of you who came here today and the most to those who threw this up for me" I said not able to take a smile of my face how happy I was

"I'm asked for a weekend with parents and brother but seeing you all here makes me so happy because we haven't been all together for such a long time, so thank you" I said

Mum came closer to light up the candles. She kissed the top of my head before I closed my eyes.

I have everything what I ever wished for, an amazing family, even better friends and boyfriend that I just could dream of. Nothing else I want but happiness and love to everyone around me at the moment.

I took a deep breath and blow up the candles after what I cut it and give everyone their piece.

Fortunately it was a big cake so it was enough for everyone since there was almost 30 people in the house.

I walked towards Leo with a piece of cake and when he wanted to take it I pulled it closer to me not giving him.

"you're so distanced today" I said quietly looking at him and holding a plate

"I don't know what you're talking about" he said and tried to take a plate from my hand but I didn't let him

He put his finger on the cake and took a cream as I just stare at him until he brushed that cream on my nose.

"I'm just letting you be with family" he said pinching my cheeks

"you're my family too" I said quietly as he stepped closer putting a plate from my hand to the table

He licked the cream from my nose and wrapped his arm around my waist pulling me closer to himself.

"you know what I wanted to say" he said and I nodded

He pulled me in hug kissing the top of my head as one of his arms rests on my lower back.

I rest my head on his chest taking a deep breath and exhaling.

"everything's okay?" he asked not moving as I nodded against his chest

"don't worry" I said and looked up at him

"if you want to talk about anything, I'm here" he said and I smiled putting my hands on his cheeks

"I'm just a bit tired of everything these days, but being here, I'm much better" I said and kissed him

The evening went well, I had more fun than ever before and I couldn't be happier.

We were having fun dancing around the house, having karaoke and playing games. Boys and dads went to play football in the backyard since it was warmer than ever even it was just a February.

Us girls, stayed in the living room. As I helped mum clean after cake I went back to the living room.

Of course, mum and others were saying for me to go to girls and that they will help mum but I just couldn't. I was like that and I just had to help.

As I sat down on the floor beside girls they decided to play truth or dare. Since it was just us I went for it because I wanted to find out what was happening between Millie and Kyle, just like between Phoebe and Noah, and Paige and Luke.
