Chapter 25

March 10th was Evan's fifteenth birthday. It was exciting. Every time all of us – Damon, Demitri, Cassie, Carter, Stevie Rae, James, Evan and I – were together, he always mentioned how many days were left. We always laughed at his excitement, because he was like a six year old at Christmas. It was sweet. I'd known Evan since we had started nursery, so I knew the kind of things he liked. Best thing was, I knew the one thing that he had always wanted but could never get. I had – of course – asked his parents if I could get it for them, and they agreed. I was so happy his parents were going to be taking pictures.

Evan had invited Damon, Demitri, Cassie, Carter, Stevie Rae, James and I round for a little party thing. I kept the present I got for him out of the living room where all of us were, and left it in the kitchen with Christian and Lucy – Evan's parents. Otherwise he would have known what it was. We had been in the living room for about half an hour talking and laughing, when three people – a guy and two girls – appeared. The three started mucking around with Evan, but stopped as soon as they saw me.

"Long time, no see." I smiled.

"Morgan!" the youngest girl smiled.

She ran over to me. I scooped her up and hugged her.

"Hey Nessie. You've grown." I smiled.

Vanessa (Nessie) was Evan's youngest sister. She was six almost seven now, and the last time I had saw her she was almost four. Her light brown hair had grown long and curled at the bottom, her eyes had stayed the same light shade of blue. I put her down, but stayed kneeling on my knees. Which was a good idea, because Evan's other sister – she was older than Nessie but younger than Evan – Haley came running into me. Haley was twelve almost thirteen, so the last time I saw her she was almost ten. Haley had blonde hair that went just past her shoulders, and blue-gray eyes. When I last saw her, her hair was just touching her shoulders.

"Hey, Haley. Look at you, so pretty." I smiled.

"No, not really." Haley replied.

Don't ever say that. And don't let anyone tell you that. You hear me." I said in a serious tone.

Haley smiled and nodded. I stood up.

"SHORTY!" Evan's older brother Noah yelled.

I rolled my eyes at him.

"Hey, to you to Noah."

Noah picked me up into a bear hug. Noah was a sixteen, a couple months away from turning seventeen. Noah had dark brown hair that went just past his ears, and brown eyes. He had his dad's eyes. Noah put me down. Damon, Demitri, Cassie, Carter, Stevie Rae and James stared at me and Evan's siblings.

"What?" I asked. "I told you I've known Evan for years. Surely you would have gathered that I knew his family."

Evan laughed.

"Well, obviously they didn't." Noah snickered.

After a while Evan actually opened his presents. A few of our friends put some money in a box, put the box in a box, put that in a box, and so on, and then proceeded to wrap it up. It was very funny. When he opened the last one, I got up and ran out of the living room. When I came back everyone was looking at me confused. In my hands was a big box, with holes in the top.

"Happy Birthday." I said setting the box down in front of Evan, and sitting back down.

"Why are there holes in the lid?" Evan asked, staring at the box.

"Open it and you'll see." I smiled. "Oh, by the way, you'll probably love it."

Evan slowly took the lid of the box. His face said it all. A huge grin, wide eyes, pure joy.

"Are you serious?!" he asked in a small voice.

I nodded, fast. Evan put his hands in the box and took out his present and held it close to him. A puppy.

"Awww!" the girls sighed.

"It's a husky cross border collie." I told Evan. "He's had all the jabs and stuff, so he's good to go. Also, you will find in there a few things to get you going with this little guy."

"You are the best." Evan breathed.

"Nah, I just knew what you wanted and I knew where to get one." I replied. "So, what you gunna name him?"

"Cole. The name, not the non-renewable energy source." Evan smiled.

Evan put the puppy on the floor. Cole looked around at the circle of people surrounding him. He started to back up into me. When he realised someone was behind him, he jumped around.

"Hey Cole." I smiled.

The puppy – hearing his name – jumped onto my knee. I picked him up.

"Ha-ha. Good thing he gave you the same name, isn't it little man." I said to the puppy.

Cole barked in agreement. I set the puppy back down.

"Wait, what?" Evan asked.

"Oh yeah, I accidently started naming some of the puppies where I found Cole, and Cole started answering to his. Luckily, I knew you would call him Cole." I replied.

"You really do know everything."

"Too damn right."

We all laughed.

Dad and Tad came to pick Damon and I up at four. As Damon and I started to leave, Evan grabbed my hand. Damon was already outside, and no one was in the hall way.

"Thank you. He's the best present ever." Evan told me.

I felt my face go a little hot. But I couldn't look down.

"You don't have to thank me. I was happy to get him for you." I said.

We smiled at each other. Not moving.

"Morgan, come on dad's getting impatient and I don't think Tad can distract him any longer!" Damon yelled.

I hugged Evan, sighed, and then laughed.

"I'll see you tomorrow." I said, reluctantly letting go of his hand and leaving.

"Bye." Evan called after me.

I turned round and waved.

Back home I slumped down in one of the spinney chairs by the computers.

"That was fun." I mused.

"It really was. How did you know Evan wanted a puppy?" Damon asked.

"I've told you, I've known him for years."

"How long is years?"

"Since the first day of nursery."

"Bloody hell!"

"Ha-ha. Anyway he's always wanted a puppy, but his parents never had enough money. So I asked them if it was alright I got him one. They were fine with it, and now he has a puppy."

"That puppy was very cute."

"He was the cutest one there. I was debating whether or not to keep him, but then I remembered Myfanwy. And Evan wanted him more."

Damon smiled. The rest of the evening went by pretty quickly. Going to sleep that night, I couldn't help but remember Evan's face when he saw his puppy. And I think I fell asleep smiling for the first time ever.
