__________________________________

Today was the day me n Robert are going on our first date. And tomorrow is my birthday...

Hurray!!!!!!!!
And then came a call with a ringtone that was so unique ofcourse it was Edward.
"What the hell?!??? What kind of a ringtone is that? Am I crazy or are you crazy?"he asked as he entered
"umm........ Umm........."I was smiling like an idiot
Why did he have to hear it?
In the hopes of changing the topic
"How are you here? And why did you call me?"
"Here"he said dangling the key"borrowed it from Robert and I called because I wanted to talk to you so I wanted to know whether you were free or not"
"Ya I'm free. come sit, what do you want to talk about?"
"Not here please in a coffee shop. I am so badly in need of a coffee"
"Okay just wait here"
I went and dressed myself up
After I was ready we both went straight to Starbucks.
***
"Here"he offered me a cup of coffee I guess I didn't order so I didn't know what it was
I took a sip and it tasted awesome
"Frappé?"
"Yep"
"Thanks"
"Ya about the important thing it's kinda personal so don't tell anyone"
"Okay??...."
Where was he getting at?
"First off all thanks for becoming my friend again
Talking to Lucas has really helped you know
Talking about that how do you know when you have found the right girl?"
"Huh?"
"You know like you true love kinda girl"
"Why are you asking me?"
"I don't know. Felt like it"

I seriously had no experience in this shit why ask me?
"Umm.... I have no idea Edward "
"Think please"
"Why problems with "freaky Tash"? "
"No but I am losing interest in her so that's why maybe?"
"Well let me think"
I started thinking how would one actually know?
"I don't know, you'll feel different when you see her?"I guess I was seriously spouting some crap
"Uh huh..... Continue"
"If you like her then you should like her because she was her n not because she's hot" coming straight from movies
"Okay...." He dragged "but in the movies.."
"It's called a movie, fiction...."
"Sorry continue"
"You should feel like you want to tell her about you and your life"
From a movie
"Even if you haven't made a mistake you might try to apologise or I don't know reason the mistake"
"Uh huh
"That's all I have. I'm sorry"
"Thanks no probs"
And that's when I had a look at my watch. Gosh i have to go now
"Edward I just have to go now thanks for the coffee bye"
"Where are you going? Why so early"
"I have to go back to the dorm then select a dress and get ready for the date"
"Date?"he asked confused
"Ya with Robert, sorry bye"
"You and Robert are dating?"
"Not dating.. Today is our first date" and then it clicked "he didn't tell you?"
"He didn't. By the way when did he ask you out"
"A week ago"
"Oh"he said. He looked hurt
"I'm saying sorry on Robert's behalf"
"Ya no probs bye"
He was trying to hide his emotion but I could see it clearly
***
It was 6:00 and now I'm perfectly ready
I wore a dress that I borrowed from Lucy and she did my makeup too.

It was a black dress that almost came till my knee. It only had one sleeve and was plain in the chest area. From my waist it turned out to be frilly and had stripes with the colours Yellow, Black and White horizontal stripes.

I wore a watch on one hand and a simple bracelet on my other hand.

Lucy had curled my hair and throughout the whole process i was shit scared as i could see smoke out of the curling machine and also because this was the first time ANY machine went next to my hair.

God knows

***
I opened the door. When Robert saw me he opened his mouth to say something
"If u say I look beautiful or wow, we are gonna have to find you some glasses"
"But u do. Really"
"I look wow or beautiful in only some dresses, and I'm wearing one of em tomorrow so....."
"Ya got it lets go?"
"Ya"
***
"Thanks for the awesome night Robert"
"Welcome. And by the way you have surprise"
Surprise? This guy is awesome he took me to a Carnival, we had dinner in the restaurant I work. We also had ice cream from baskin Robbins.
How much more awesome could this day get?
We were now walking towards my dorm
"There"said Robert
"What?"
I turned in the direction of my dorm there was a person standing over ther
"Oh my god !!!!"
"Surprise!! " screamt Arvind
"What are you doing here?"
"Tomorrow is you bday so I'm here to celebrate it with you"
"Thank you so much"I opened the door "come in, come in Robert "
"Ya about that"he said looking at his phone"I'll come tomorrow"
"Why?"
"Edward wants to talk to me right away"
"Oh, k bye"
"Bye enjoy!"

I was about to cut the cake that was kept in front of me. It look so delicious. It had chocolate and vanilla flavours in it it was a ice cream cake!!!!!!!!!!! Why won't it look delicious 
"Damn lady wake up!!!"I felt someone shaking the hell out of me
"My ice cream cake"I mumbled
"What?! Anyways HAPPY BIRTHDAY AKSHHYA!!!!!"said a group of voices 
Said was a under statement of the century
They freakin screamed!!!
It was so loud that I felt like my ear drums wear gonna tear
"Shut up"I finally opened my eyes and I noticed who all were there
My bro Arvind
Robert
Edward 
Meena
Lucy
Bethany
And 2 others whose face was kinda familiar 
"Come on we know!"both of them said together
"Suchi!!!! Hari!!!!"I said surprised
They were my bffs in Dubai their names are Suchitra and Haritha
"Don't call me dat"said Haritha
"Dat still hasn't changed huh. By the way how are you both here?!"
"We coordinated with arvind luckily he remembered us.......and"
"And?"
Arvind covered my eyes with his hands and took me to the dining table
"Here"he removed his hands from my eyes.
I looked at it and my eyes bulged.
My dream came true!!!!
"Ice cream cake!!!!!"i screamt.
***
I spent time with my old friends and got filled on what was happening.
"Tomorrow your coming with us to india"
"What?"
"You heard me we are going back to india for your vacation and enjoy there!"
"What I haven't even packed anything!"
"We did, when you were sleeping"
"Okay then"
***
"Your ready!!!"said both the make up artists in unison
Now was the time for the first song.that I'm dancing with Robert.that too my favourite song!!!!
I rushed in and put on my dress and stood where I had to.
I'm supposed to go in first.
Nothing was different from the dance steps in the original song only the part where the heroine doesn't dance I do.
Darling dambakku started the song there was my cue to enter....
***
"That was so awesome!!!!"said suchi 
"You both were in so much synchronisation, makes sense that you are going out with him"
"Ya right"
***
"Your all done"they said again
I went changed my dress again for the second song
I again stood in the place where I was supposed to be but this time I had enter the last.
The choreography of this song was mixed we used some steps from the song and choreographed most. The genre was suitable to the dance group.
But like the heroine in the song I had minimal steps.it resembled the ones in the original song.
I could see that Edward and the back up dancers standing in their positions.
As the song started the lights went on.
And I went in
