The next day, Shelby sighed. Kat and Ana were so scared of Luke, that they were avoiding her in the process.
Lucy had made Luke an anniversary breakfast. "Luke?" Lucy says, concerned.
"What? I'm not celebrating it!" Luke says. "Mom said I had some thinking to do about my actions toward Shane, so there will be no party today."
Lucy gasped, dropping the breakfast, but Luke managed to catch it mid-drop and eat it all.
Shane smiled as the postings for the new spring play were up today. He was going to play the role of Corny Collins in the Oakley Academy production of Hairspray. He couldn't be more excited.
Brandy got a minor role, despite having a good tryout.
Brandy goes to be alone, knowing he'd never be good enough for anything.
At lunch, Luke sighed. He got the role of Link Larkin, which was also a lead role. But he sat alone instead of with his friends. He had been a real jerk to Shane. And it showed.
"I'm sorry, Shane." Luke says. "I know that I hurt you, and I didn't mean to be threatening or intimidating toward you. I won't hurt you. I promise." Luke says. "I'm going to change. Here and now."
Shane decided to forgive him, but was eager to share an idea with Remy later.
Haiku sat alone at the middle school.
"Sigh." Lucy sighed, looking at the plans she made for Luke. She frowned.
After school, Chrissy arrived with Delta in front of Luke's group.
"Hey, guys, we just came to pick up Angry Luigi and Alem tuber." Delta says, grabbing them and teleporting to Shiloh and Emma as Delta grabbed Emma and teleported.
They arrive to see the adventure kids set up a party for Ann and Brock.
"Hey, guys!" Delta says
"Hey, Cosmic buddies!" Kali says.
Meanwhile, Oliver sniffed, knowing Skylia would miss his half-birthday. Victoria put a reassuring arm around Oliver.
"It'll be a special day. We'll celebrate it together. You, me, Remy, Luan, Benny, your dad, and your siblings." Victoria says. "Even if we celebrate the day after, it will be special."
Oliver sniffs and smiles.
Cynthia had invited Oliver to the party. She still felt she had to invite him despite their rivalry. Oliver had given her an invitation to Shane's party since his half-birthday party was going to be his family and his two lovers only.
"I might come to your birthday this summer, Oliver…" Cynthia says to herself. But she would try to come to Shane's party, too.
Lucy was still stunned while at her club meeting. She had a couple of new members to welcome in, but honestly, she thought of Luke.
She didn't think Luke could hurt people's feelings. But she could also see why Charity called off his celebration. She was still thinking of giving him a party, knowing Luke would mentally break down without the party like he did once.
But Luke had a lot of thinking to do, and it served him right.
"Shane, your birthday is in January, yet Luke wants to give you a half birthday in July. Doesn't that make Oliver's half-birthday in December since his real birthday is on June 16th?" Lisa asked.
"Oliver changes it to January for the sake of Luke." Lori says. Lisa nods, understanding.
"Tomorrow, I'm 16." Shane says.
At the party, Ann and Brock were playing games as it was a Friday.
"Is Luke coming?" Ann asked.
"Kali, did you end up inviting him?" Cynthia asked.
"Luke needed time to reflect and think, so I let him stay home." Kali says.
Ann screamed so loud, all of her town could hear her.
"Jeez…grow up." Cynthia says to Ann.
"Don't boss my sister around." Kali says.
Luke was sitting in his room and thinking. He had been awful to Shane.
Lucy sat next to him. "Hey." Lucy says.
"Hey." Luke says, looking at his lines for Link Larkin.
"Are you OK?" Lucy asked. "I heard Oliver was really unhappy about staying at Remy's place. After all, he could have just stayed here with Luan, but Remy dragged Oliver and his family there."
"He's coming here to stay the night because we're working on stuff for Shane's party." Luke says.
Meanwhile
"Mommy will be back tomorrow…" Emma says.
"That's great!" Alem tuber says.
"So no divorce?" Brandy asked.
"Nope." Emma says, smiling as Remy looks pissed off. Remy glared at Emma.
"Okay, since today is Friday, it's makeover time!" Pam says.
"Yay!" Emma says.
"Oh, God…last time I had a makeover, it lasted 6 hours." Rachel says.
"Emma, your mother isn't coming back for a few more weeks. Why do you always assume that she'll be back within a few days?" Gabriel asked.
She points at Oliver's half-birthday on the calendar.
"Victoria is planning a small get-together for that on Sunday. Oliver's going to be busy tomorrow." Gabriel says.
Emma frowned, but nodded.
Meanwhile, Shane arrived as Ann gasped.
"He's here…" Ann says.
"Who?" Brock asked.
"Shane Loud, one of the only people on this Earth who matters in the music industry other than Luke! Have you not heard his new song?!" Ann says. "I love it!"
"Okay, we do music, too. I mean, we're in ANH, too." Cynthia says. But Ann was too busy getting lost in Shane's gorgeous blue eyes to listen to Cynthia.
"He's too old for you…" Kali says.
Shane performed his new song for the party as Alem tuber crossed his arms.
Later, Pam was giving Emma a makeover As Oliver leaves to spend the night with Luke and Shane. They had plans to work on party stuff, go to dinner at Poultry Palace, then work on lines for the play. Oliver had a minor speaking role, but still wanted to work on his lines with Luke and Shane.
Lucy read Luke an anniversary poem before he got ready for Oliver to show up.
She got him a gift, too, which was a Link Larkin costume for the school play. Oliver came in, bags of art materials and party stuff in hand.
"Shall we get that birthday banner made, Ollie, my boy? The Shane banners came in today and they look awesome!" Luke says.
"Oooh, I can't wait to see them!" Oliver says as he follows Luke upstairs.
"Sigh. He likes Shane more than me." Lucy says before Charity explained that he was working on Shane's birthday stuff, thinking of someone other than himself for once.
"You think Mom is okay?" Brandy asked.
"Probably getting killed…" Griffin says. Randy got annoyed at this.
"Honestly, there's got to be a way to win ANH and beat Luke." Alem tuber says.
"According to the current leaderboard…your group ended up in 5th on the last show." Stevie says.
Alem tuber growled. "I'll be the victor and you won't be bragging once the spotlight isn't on you guys." He says.
Shane came back from Ann and Brock's party, seeing Luke and Oliver.
"Hey, we got your banners in today." Luke says to Shane.
"Show me! Show me!" Shane says. They showed him and he grinned.
"All my best stage poses! Amazing!" Shane says.
"You will love your birthday cake even more!" Oliver says.
"Oh, I bet I will!" Shane says with a smile.
They showed him the design and he gasped. "Me on a Broadway stage with my name in lights! Oh, it looks so wonderful!" Shane smiled.
Meanwhile… "Hey, Savannah I need you to bake a cake for Shane. Him on a Broadway Stage with his name in lights." Brandy says on the phone.
"Ok" Savannah says, unaware Luan had plans to bake the cake.
"Hey, Shane, you should get two birthdays" Luke says
"One is good enough for me, thanks." Shane says.
"Shane, sweetie, just for this year, okay? 16 is a big birthday. Oliver won't have to be here for that one." Sharon tells him.
"Well…" Shane says.
"On second thought…3." Luke says. "or a birthweek…"
"Tell me what that is, exactly." Shane says.
"A week where everyone has to ditch their events for you as you get 7 days about you and if someone makes a mistake you get another 7 days." Luke says.
"I think 2 is enough this year" Shane says. "But note that for my 18th."
"2 birthdays we're allowed." Shiloh says as Shelby thinks. "Maybe we should all get multiple birthdays."
"JUST ME!" Shane shouted.
Everyone frowned.
"Shane, you're started to sound like Lola how come you can have multiple birthdays and not us I thought we were all equals." Shelby asked
"Hey" Lola says "We don't need to talk about my birthweek the studio gave me one last year and it was really good here's hoping to another one this year"
"Nope, you're not getting it. Me and Shane are the stars of the family. That's why we get multiple parties besides none of you have earned it I work harder than all of you" Luke says
"Can we not fight?" Lori says.
Shiloh sniffed. "You're not playing fair, Shane!" he says.
"Out!" Luke screamed, pushing them out as he hated seeing his siblings getting multiple birthdays except Shane.
"We don't need multiple birthdays anyway." Lori says.
"Look, we need to make sure Shane's birthday is perfect. Which means none of you guys can have an event this weekend." Lucy says
"You guys can go to an event if you need to. I don't mind." Shane says with a smile.
"See, Shane is chill." Luna says.
Meanwhile, Pam finished Emma's makeover with success.
