His Sugar |√|Words: 5470

Hey guys!

Sorry for late update.

I love you guys!

I went to my room and checked the time. It was 10:30. I was tired to think about anything else.

I laid down on my bed and created some fake scenarios in my head of fictional characters who did not exist in real world and I drifted into sleep.

I heard some faint noises.

What was happening? Where was I?

"She's sleeping." A feminine voice said.

"Shh you'll wake her up." Someone else said.

Did I got ki-kidnapped again? No God please. No more kidnapping.

I opened my eyes slowly and saw Dad, Dan, Scott, Anne, Michael, Ryder and James standing near my bed.

Am I dreaming?

I opened my eyes slowly and looked at all of them and closed my eyes assuming it was a dream until they all started singing together.

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday dear Ele

Happy birthday to you.

May God bless you

May God bless you

Happy birthday dear Ele

Happy birthday to you.

It was not a dream.

"Thank you so much." I said and smiled at them.

Ryder brought a cake near me.

"Ele make a wish." He said excitedly.

May they all be happy forever.

"Happy birthday honey." Dad said and hugged me.

"Thank you" I said.

"Happy birthday love" Scott came and kissed my forehead.

Anne jumped on me.

"Happy birthday girl." she said excitedly.

"Thank you" I said and hugged her back.

"This is for you." She said and handed me a gift.

"Thank you so much" I said and smiled at her.

Ryder threw some party sprays at me. Some colours and he put some chocolate cream at my face.

"Want a hug Ryder?" I said.

"Why not? Will I miss any chance?" He said and smirked at me. He came near me and hugged me.

I took a handkerchief and wiped my face.

James and Michael greeted me with a hug and gifts.

Then everyone ate the cake, we took selfies and photographs.

I looked at everyone. They all were laughing and smiling. That's what I needed, for them to remain happy forever and for all of us to be together, always.

I went to the washroom. I washed my face with face wash.

Everybody went back home except Scott. It was 2:20 am already.

I went out and saw Scott laying on my bed.

"Scott" I called.

"Yes?" he said.

"You staying?" I asked.

"No, but if you want to then I can stay." He teased.

I narrowed my eyes at him.

"I didn't even wish you properly." He said.

"You did" I said.

"No" he said and he came near me. He held my face in his hand and then he kissed me.

"Happy birthday baby" he said and gave him a smile.

"Thank you" I said smiling happily at him.

"Here, this is for you." he said and handed me a box.

"What is this?" I asked curiously.

"Open it" he said.

I opened it. It was a sage green satin dress.

"Thank you" I said and hugged him.

He handed me another box.

"What is this?" I asked curiously.

"Just open it, Sugar." He said and smiled at me.

I opened it. There were silver heels.

"Thank you so much." I said and pulled him into a hug.

I went to my closet and kept the dress. Scott came behind me and wrapped his arms around my neck from back and then he put a small necklace around my neck. It was beautiful.

A butterfly shaped pendant.

"It's beautiful, but you didn't have to-" I said.

"I will spoil my girl however I want to." He said and smirked at me.

I held his hand and he pulled me to make me sit on his lap.

"There is a surprise for you tomorrow." He said.

"A surprise?" I asked curiously.

"Yes, Anne will come to pick you." he said.

"Tell me what's it?" I asked.

Don't get me wrong. I loved surprises but curiosity kills me. I knew I'll not easily be able to sleep at night.

"Okay, now I have to go" he said and got up from the bed.

"Okay goodnight" I said sadly.

I wanted him to stay.

"Goodnight and dream of me." He said and went out of the door.

I sat near my bed.

I picked up a box which said

-love Anne.

I opened it and saw a maroon bikini and there was a lil dress too.

There was a pink sticky note on the backside of the box, which I didn't noticed before.

It said-

I gifted you this because, if you know it you know it. ;-)

Much love Anne.

I picked up another box which was from dad.

I opened it. It was a beautiful platinum and diamond necklace.

"Wow" I whispered.

I stood in front of the mirror and wore the necklace. It was more than beautiful.

Dan gifted me a charm's bracelet. It was beautiful.

I opened the box Ryder gave me.

There was a box. I opened it. There was another box, I opened it, there was a another box.

I opened the ninth box. In the tenth box there was a crushed paper. I took it out and then I opened it. It was a blank check. Blank means totally blank. Not a single thing written. I turned it. I saw something written there in a messy handwriting.

Don't worry or don't be too happy ;) it's just a note and this is not your gift. Check your drawer which is on the left side of your bed.

I checked it and saw a box.

It read-

-Love, Ryder.

I opened it.

Tom and Jerry cartoon series. This is amazing.

There was a note.

Hey Ele,

I am sorry not sorry for that blank check. Call me whenever you'll want to watch tom and Jerry. We'll watch it together.

Then I opened James gift. He gave me an 'E' shaped keychain. It was beautiful.

There was a note.

I didn't know what you like. Hope you like it.

-James

Then I opened Michael's gift.

How thoughtful!

It was the novel Pride and Prejudice.

Ever since I as a kid I loved presents. On my birthday after everybody would go home, me and my two best friends would sit and open all the presents. It was fun.

When's your birthday?
