A few weeks had passed and things were no different between Ava and Crawford. Things were going well but nothing new had changed. Ava's birthday was ten days away and Crawford and the rest of the group had been non-stop planning for her party which was taking place the day before.
The plan was that Sam and Colby's group would be 'taking her out' for her birthday that night but really they were taking her to the party.
She was currently hanging at the trap house, spread out on the sofa and scrolling through her phone when Colby thought it was the best time to tell her about their 'plans'.
"So Ava, you're birthday is ten days away...we're all taking you out the night before so you can party with us up until you literally turn 21" he ranted to her, picking up her legs so he could sit down and then placing them back on top of him.
"Do I have to go?" She complained, not ever liking celebrating her birthdays.
"Dude you're literally turning 21, yes" he laughed at her, earning an eye roll in response.
"I just-"
"Don't like celebrating birthdays, we know" Sam interrupted her as he emerged from the kitchen. She glared at him and then focused back on her phone in hope that the boys would stop, but they didn't.
"Make sure you're ready for 7 that night, me, you, Colby, Corey, Jake, Kat and Tara are all going out. You don't have a choice" Sam Warned her, sitting on the extra couch.
"Fine, whatever" she muttered, not looking away from her phone which was opened on Twitter.
Colby took the opportunity to text Crawford to let him know the plan was in place and she was 'aware' of where they were 'going'.
Crawford felt stressed about her birthday. He wanted it to be perfect for her and he didn't want anything to go wrong. He had arranged for it to be at a beautiful venue with security on the door and invite only. They had all ordered decorations to go up and stuck to the theme of white and rose gold, her favourite colour combo. He was stressed but super excited.
However, before her party, they had another party to attend this Friday. A Halloween one being thrown by Andrea Russet. It was going to be a pretty big party and they were all stoked to go, however, Ava was struggling finding a costume.
"Am i the only one struggling to find a costume for Andrea's party?" She complained to the boys, looking up from her phone.
"I think so" Sam nodded, again earning another glare from her.
"Why don't you go matching with Crawford" Colby teased, laughing afterwards and earning a kick from her.
"No, that makes me cringe. We're not even official or anything either so it would just be weird" she told him.
"Yo wait, I swear you have that old Snow White costume from that fancy dress party we went to like a year ago? Why don't you make that all scary and bloody and go as that" Colby suggested, feeling pretty proud of his idea.
"That's actually not that bad...and it's free" she grinned from ear to ear.
"You're welcome" Colby smirked cockily, making both Sam and Ava eye roll in response.
"What are you guys going as?" She asked them.
"Waiting for Katrina to tell me" Sam shrugged, making Ava laugh.
"I'm not sure, I'm just choosing a costume I already have on the day" Colby told her.
"So you both don't even know?"
"Nope" they said in sync. Ava screw faced them before getting up to grab herself a glass of water from the kitchen. Both Jake and Tara were in there and they both greeted her with hello's.
"Wagwan" She told them back making Jake scoff.
"What?" She questioned him, filling the glass up with water.
"I forget you're British sometimes..." he laughed to himself. Ava mimicked him before sticking her middle finger up and then having her drink. Tara laughed whilst Jake pretended to act hurt.
"So you're 21 next week" Tara grinned excitedly, clapping her hands together.
"Ugh, don't remind me" Ava muttered. Tara pouted and Jake sent her a confused look.
"Oh come on, you're not even a little excited? We're taking you out you've got that to look forward to" she told her. Ava shrugged.
"I'm just not a fan of birthdays. Like, yayyy...one year closer to my death..." she dryly joked, lowkey not kidding though. Tara sent her a seriously wtf? Kind of look before Jake spoke up.
"You're gonna have a great time, we'll make sure of it" he told her, nodding as he spoke.
"Mhm okay..." she trailed before heading back into the living room with the intentions of annoying Colby.
"Yo, we're thinking of exploring the Roosevelt Hotel tomorrow night for a video with Kian and JC...you in?" Colby asked her as she sat down beside him.
"Haunted hotel? Hell yeah!" She cheered excitedly, the two boys laughed and Sam spoke up.
"We're renting out the most haunted room and Marilyn Monroe used to live there. We told Kian and JC they could invite whoever but we are planning on staying over night...so prepare yourself" He warmed her.
"Hey, I'm more than down for this. I love these kind of things. When will you know who else is coming?" She questioned them.
"Whenever Kian or JC decide to let us know" Colby shrugged.
"Can you drive me home? Imma crash here tonight so I might as well pack some stuff for tomorrow and bring a bag of stuff to take to the Roosevelt with me tomorrow night" she told Colby.
"Yeah sure you can stay here tonight" Sam told her sarcastically considering she didn't even ask if it's okay.
"Dude I don't even know why you're complaining, I'm the one who always has to give up my bed for her" Colby spoke, standing up as Ava nodded.
It was true. Whenever she stayed at the Trap House Colby always let her sleep in his bed and he'd always sleep on the couch downstairs, it was almost like tradition now.
"True. Have fun with that!" Sam perked before sprinting off to the kitchen.
"Well am I driving you home or not?" Colby sassed jokingly, waving his keys in front of her face in attempt to make her move.
"Yeah, let's go" she spoke, getting up and following him out of the house.
