Birthday Wishes

Chapter 3

The song, 'These words are my own.' was pounding through out the dance floor.

These words are my own.

Threw some coins together, the combination D-E-N!

It's who I am, its what I do, and I was gonna lay it down for you.

I tried to focus my attention, but I feel so A-P-D!

I need some help, some inspiration, but it's not coming easily.

Whoa-oh, trying to find the magic.

Whoa-oh, trying to ride a classic.

Whoa-oh, don't ya know, don't ya know, don't ya know.

Whoa-oh, waste bin for the paper, clever rhymes, see ya later!

These words are my own, from my heart flown, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you!

There's no one going, two can taste it, I love you, I love you.

Read some byrand, jelly and keys, resided it over hip-hoppie,.

I'm having trouble saying what I mean, we're dead goers and drive machines.

You know I had some studio time books, but I couldn't find the killer hunk. Now you're gonna raise the bar righter, nothing I write is ever good enough.

These words are my own, from my heart flown, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you.

There's no one, no way. Two can taste it. I love you, I love you, I love you.

I'm getting off my stage,

The curtains pull away,

No hyper-ball to hide behind,

My naked soul exposing.

Oh oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, whoa oh oh oh oh!

Trying to find the magic,

Trying to ride a classic,

Waste bin for the paper,

Clever rhymes,

See ya later!

These words are my own, from my heart flown, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you.

There's no one, no way.

Two can taste it. I love you, I love you-uu!

These words are my own,

From my heart flown,

I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you.

There's no one, no way,

Two can taste it,

I love you, I love you, I love you,

These words are my own,

They're from my heart,

I love you, I love you-uu,

That's all I got to say,

You think of a better way,

That's all I got to say.

I love you, is that okay?

As the song ended, the whole dance floor shook with cheers and shouts. As the next song, 'Going Under' by Evanescence came on, I dragged him onto the stage, and started dancing and singing.

Now I will tell you what I've done for you,

Fifty thousand tears ive cried,

Screaming, deceiving, and bleeding for you,

And you still wont hear me.

I'm going under!

Don't want your hand this time,

I'll save myself.

Maybe I'll wake up for once.

Not tormented, daily, defeated by you,

Just when I thought I'd reached the bottom,

Iiiiii'm dyyyyying again,

I'm going under,

Drowning in you,

I'm falling forever,

I've got to break through,

Iii, I'm going under!

Blurring and stirring the truth and the lies,

So I don't know what's real and what's not.

Always confusing the thoughts in my head.

Whoo-oo.

So I cant trust myself anymore,

Iiiiiiii'm dyyyyying again,

Im going under!

Im drowning in you,

Im falling forever,

I've got to break through,

So go on and scream,

Scream at me,

So far awayyy!

I wont be broken again,

Ive got to breathe!

I can't keep going under!

Iiiiii'm dyyyyying again,

Im going under,

Drowning in you,

I'm falling forever,

Ive got to break through,

Im going under!

Going under!

Im going under!

"YEAH!" the crowd of middle schoolers yelled. Then the DJ put in ' Pimpin' all over the world.' "WHOOOO HOOOO!" Then 'Pon de Replay,' then 'Sugar on my tongue,' then ' Unwritten' then 'Soul Survivor' then 'Time of your life' by Green Day then 'Where's the love,' then 'Gotta get thru this' then 'Caught up,' then the DJ started taking requests, and I asked for 'Soul Survivor', and so it played again. "I NEED TO GO SEE MY FRIENDS!" I managed to shout over the music. "I'LL BE WITH CONNOR AND THE OTHERS!" he shouted back. I nodded. "'KAY!" I agreed. "SEE YA!" he yelled. I took off, looking for Krysten and Raiin. I then found Krysten, and tried to find Raiin. "IT'S HOPELESS! WE HAVE TO EMAIL HER!" I told Krysten over the pounding music. "OKAY! ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO HAVE CAREMEL IN YOUR SODA?" she asked me.

"WHAAAAT! NO, NO, NO! I SAID, WE HAVE TO EMAIL HER, DAMN IT!" I screamed. "OHHHH! OKAY. ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT CHEESE? IT DOESN'T SOUND TOO GOOD IN A SODA!" Krysten yelled. "NOOOOOOOOOOO! I DON'T WANT THAT! I NEED TO IM WITH TERESA TO FIND OUT WHERE SHE IS!"I yelled at the top of my lungs. "OH! OKAY! YOU KNOW WHAT? LETS IM WITH TERESA TO FIND OUT WHERE SHE IS!" Krysten yelled back. "Hopeless, just hopeless." I muttered to myself.

"HERE!" I yelled over my shoulder. She followed me to a table, and I sat down my laptop, opened it and began the IM:

Inuyashaluvr: raiin? we're ovr at table #3. come ovr!

Raiinthedragon: huh? oh. ok. b thr in a sec

Dnangelroks: sup!

Inuyashaluvr: Hey Hannah. come ovr 2 table #3.

Dnangelroks: k. c u thr!

Click. I shut off my laptop. "SHE'S COMING AND SO IS HANNAH!" I yelled to Krysten. She nodded. "HEY YOU GUYS!" raiin and Hannah appeared, grinning as 'Everybody's Fool' came on. So we chatted, danced with our friends, boy friends, and good friends. Then it was time to go home. "Bye! Don't forget to come to my b-day party tomorrow!" I told them. "Wouldn't miss it for the world." they replied. "Good." I said happily. Today was a good day. 'And tomorrow is going to be better.' I thought.

The next day. (My birthday)

Blink blink. 'Huh? Ohhhhh…. I am SO sore! All of that dancing got me really tired! Wow! Is..is today my birthday! Yay!' My eyes sparkled with renewed energy. I threw off the covers, and jumped out of bed. I raced out of my room, then tip toed to my sister's room. I slowly opened the door, and crept up to her. 'Sleeping like a baby!' I grinned meanly. 'Muhahahahahahaha!' I thought, and loomed over her. I took a deep breath. "TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY! BOW BEFORE MY AWSOME POWER!" I screamed in her ear, and stood back to watch the show.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" she yelled, scared out of her wits. She jumped five feet into the air, and landed on her bed with a thump! "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" I burst out laughing, letting my throat go horse with laughter. "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!" My body shook with racking waves of laughter. "AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHAHAHAAAA! Hee hee hee hee hee hee! Hee hee hee hee hee! Oh, that was PRICELESS!" I screamed. Visibly shaken, she glared the iciest daggers at me. "I WAS SLEEPING, YOU IDIOT! MOM! MOM! MADISO-" "It's Ava! Now shut up!" I hissed, covering up her mouth. She grumbled and shoved my hand off her face. "Back off." she growled. "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" I laughed at her expression.

"Grrrrrrr…" POW! And there I sat, lump on head, woozy eyes, and my tongue hanging loosely from my mouth. "GET OUT!" Sam yelled in my ear. "AHHH! Fine! Fine!" I backed out of her room. SLAM! She slammed the door in my face, my nose millimeters away from being crushed. "WELL SOOOORRY! Gosh, you friggin' idiot!" I mumbled. (Napoleon Dynamite ROCKS!) I trotted quietly into my parent's room. "Mom? Dad? Are you up?" I whispered into my parents' ears. "Nnnnn? Oh. Hello, sweetie. What's up?" My dad asked, stretching. "Today's my birthday!" I said in a singsong voice. "Oh! Happy birthday, honey! Sorry, we're just so (yawn) tired!" my mom greeted me with a hug. "That's okay…PRESENTS! MUST HAVE PRESENTS! Presents, presents, presents, presents, PRESENTS!" I began to have weird 'presents' withdrawals. My mom gave me the Heimlich maneuver, my sister watched in utter horror, and my dad gave me some peanut butter to help calm me down.

15 minutes later

"YAY! FEERBIE!" I yelled happily. I tore open another present. "YU-GI-OH CARDS!" "POKEMON CARDS!" DVD PLAYER!" "(gasp) AN MP3 PLAYERRRR!" I screamed, jumping up and down. I ripped through the rest of my presents. "CAMERA!" "DVD!" "CLOTHES!" "DVD!" "CLOTHES!" "PS2 GAME!" "PS3!" "JOURNAL!" "AND MY BOYFRIEND'S AT MY DOOR!" I darted to the door, and wrenched it open. "Hi!" I said breathlessly. "Er…hi?" he replied, gingerly stepping over pieces of wrapping paper. "When's the party?" he asked. "…. 6?" I guessed. He nodded. "Okay. See u then." he handed me a present. I hugged him. "Thanks." He hugged me back. "Bye!" I shut the door, and opened his present. "Oh, oh my gosh!" I lifted a gold necklace with a medium sized diamond stud on it. "WOW!" my family gasped. Tears welled up in my eyes. "Thank you. Thank you." I whispered. I ran to my room after I thanked my family, and signed on.

Raiinthedragon, Inuyashaluvr, Dnangelroks, and Bballplayr signed off at 5:47 am.

Brrrrrring. Brrrrrrring. Brrrrrrrrrrring! The phone continued to ring. I picked it up. "Hello?" I asked. "It's Hannah, wazz up?" I sighed, grinning. I was glad to have such good friends. "Hey Hannah." I whizzed around on my computer chair. So, we talked and laughed until it was 7 o' clock. "Hahahahahaha! That was HALARIOUS! Oh! Shit. Its 7. I guess I'll see you at 7:30. Kay. Kay. No. Kay. No. No. No. NO! Heh heh heh. Fine. See ya!" I hung up. I got up, got dressed, and went shopping with my mom for stuff for the party. My mom tried to get streamers, but I snuck them to the trash, along with; doggie plates, you know, the Plate pal things, orange juice, and a big 'Happy Birthday' streamer thing, which I replaced with an Anime 'Happy Birthday' with Anime people on it. I instead got; Vanilla Coke, Pepsi, Root Beer, ice cream, paper lanterns and Anime comics. As soon as she finished paying, she noticed the different things I (cough cough) had snuck in there. She shunned me to my room until my friends got here, all the while I was heavy heartedly cleaning up my room.

Ding-dong. I flew out of my room, yanking the door open. "HAPPY BIRTHDAYYYYYY!" my friends, Krysten, Raiin, Hannah, Connor, and Kyle yelled. I grinned broadly. "Come on in." I greeted them, and we had a party for 20 hours straight… from 7:30 am to 10:30 pm, you idiots! Sorry. Back to the story…or as my friend Raiin would say, back to the story-eth! We finally plopped down on my living room floor. "That was a GREAT party!" Kyle exclaimed. "Totally!" the rest of the group chorused. I giggled contently. "I'm gonna go get a breath of fresh air." I told them. "Me too." Krysten and raiin said. We all stepped out in the pitch-dark night air.

It wasn't cold, or hot, though it was in the middle of fall. I looked around, and noticed a small hut next to my house, almost hidden by the dense forest we were near. "Wanna go explore it?" a voice intruded my thoughts. "It was never there before, I swear!" I cried in confusion. "So?" Krysten shrugged her shoulders simultaneously. I carefully followed Raiin and Krysten to the hut. "Whoa! Sweet!" exclaimed raiin as she pried the rusty door open.

"Look at all of this old stuff! It's, like, centuries old!" Krysten picked up a vase like thing with a weird inscription on it. "I haven't seen this at all! Ive explored the whole forest and everything around it, but never found this!" I persisted. "HEY! YOU GUYS! I FOUND A WELL!" a voice from the back of the hut resounded against the wooden walls. "Come on." I gestured Krysten to follow me. We found raiin standing at the edge of a crumbling well. "Look at this! Cool, huh?" she leaned over the rim to look inside. "I think I can see someth-AHHHH!" she toppled over into the dark well. "RAIIN!" Krysten and I ran to the well. "Raiin? Raiin? Answer me!" I yelled. "This isn't funny!" Krysten growled. "Im going in to find her." I grumbled. I swung my legs over the edge, and looked at Krysten. "Ya comin'?" I asked. She nodded. "Kay. On three. One, two, EIGHT!" Krysten jumped. "NO! I SAID ON THREE, YOU DIMWIT!" I screamed at her. She also disappeared, but screaming all the way. A sudden thought occurred to me. Why didn't I hear a thump when they would reach the bottom? I got scared, but swallowed the lump in my throat. "Here goes." I whispered to my self, and jumped.

Raiin's P.O.V.

"AHHHH!" I yelled, and fell into the pitch darkness of the old well. "AHHHHHHHH!" I screamed in utter most horror, feet pointed outward, arms crossed over my chest. I squeezed my eyes shut, waiting for the painful landing. It never came. I slowly opened one eye, then the other. "AH!" I was surrounded by a sparkling green light. I looked around feverishly. The light seemed like it went on forever, just continuing infinity. Suddenly it died down, and disappeared. "Ooof!" I got up, rubbing my sore behind. I gazed up, and was surprised to see a bright blue sky with dazzling white clouds hanging overhead. "Huh?" I spotted two furry dog-ears poke over the side. "Who's there?" I called. A head popped over the rim. A face with fangs as large as half of my pinky finger, silvery long hair, and malicious amber eyes. His eyes narrowed, and he pounced, clawing at my face.

CLIFFIE! YAY! POW! (gets hit in head with shoe.) Owwwww! Sorrrry! anyway, please review, review, review……REVIEW, DAMMIT! thank you!
