Author's Notes: Hello travelers. I apologize dearly for my delay I went on
vacation, I know it's no excuse, please forgive me!!!
Amy fished in her pocket for the keys. Her hand emerged holding a pair of keys hanging on a golden key chain, with her name engraved in the metal. She momentarily struggled in placing it into the key hole. After it had been properly located she lingered on something. F
or merely a second, she stood still as somewhat familiar images filled her mind. ::Fairies trapped in bubbles. Billions of lights dimly illuminating a dark area. Space?::
"What was that"? Amy said out loud referring to the previous vision. Probably nothing, Amy thought. Probably being the key word.

A sharp ring echoed throughout the apartment. Amy emerged from the bathroom dressed casually but still properly clothed for an informal get together as a party. Amy to reach the phone resting on top of her bed. "Hello". She answered. "Hi Amy". "Rei"?
"Yep. Listen, me and Chad are gonna head over there already. Is that okay?" "Sure, everything is ready." Amy smiled with satisfaction while taking in the differences in her usually tidy apartment. "Cool. We'll be there in a few minutes. Later". "Goodbye Rei". Amy placed the phone down and went to check her image in the mirror.
Amy stood in front of her dresser balancing her weight on the furniture. She tilted her head to get a different look at her reflection. "Hmm" Amy sighed in exasperation realizing that absolutely nothing had changed in her appearance. With the tips of her fingers she traced the smooth curves of the delicately carved moons and stars on the wood.
Amy slid her hand across the surface and picked up her hairbrush. It was silver with roses and vines engraved in it. She began running the brush through her hair. Casually stopping to untangle the many knots in her hair which was still moist from her shower.
But because her hair was always so incredibly silky it always fell right into place. She flicked a lock of her midnight hair behind her ear and carefully examined the texture. As expected it was slightly wet but it still felt silky and soft.
Suddenly the door bell rang. Amy quickly strolled towards the door and took a quick glance at the visitor through the peep hole. Amy opened the door to find Chad and Rei. "Hi guys. Glad you could make it."
Amy escorted them into the apartment as they complemented her on the many decorations. "Wow Amy! You did a great job"! Chad told her with a pat on the back. "Amy, he's right. This place looks awesome"! Rei shrieked. "And you did this all by yourself"? Chad questioned. "No. Actually I Bumped into Darien and...uh...he helped me." "Oh...good". Rei said .
Rei followed Amy into the kitchen to help her with the several trays of food. Chips and dip, pizza, double fudge brownie ice cream, and the cake. Because of course, food was Serena's most precious gift.
"So when is Serena coming"? Rei asked while dipping a chip into the cheese sauce. "I don't know, I guess Darien is supposed to bring her." "Hmm". Rei murmured after biting into the chip. "What do you mean 'hmm'?" "I mean this stuff is really good". Rei replied with a slight roll of the eyes.

It wasn't long before all the guests started arriving. Guests being defined as Leda, Josh, Mina, and Peter. Leda and Josh were on the couch. Josh's head was on Leda's lap while he comfortably reclined. Mina was in the "love seat" with Peter.
She was sitting on his lap with their finger laced. Amy was resting on the floor just smiling, though inside she couldn't help but feel a bit left out. Suddenly, the door bell rang. Amy ran towards the door and looked out the peep hole.
"They're here"! She whispered. "Everybody hide". They all searched for spots behind the couches or under tables while Amy turned off the lights. Amy slowly opened the door to find Serena and Darien standing before her. "Hey happy birthday"! Amy yelled and went over to hug her friend.
"Thanks Amy". Serena answered. "Well, come on in". "Why are the lights out.- " "SURPRISE"!!! Everybody screamed. Serena froze in shock and then began to laugh as all of her closest friends gathered around her wishing her a happy birthday.
As Darien went to kiss his girlfriend, Amy felt a heavy weight fall on her shoulders and sadness well up in her heart. It's nothing, Amy thought to herself. He just reminds me of something.
