To This Day

The sound of a small confetti cracker went off and the next thing I knew there were colourful stringy bits of paper in my face. "Hows it feel being a legal adult now Dev?" God, Lea was so dramatic sometimes, like chill the fuck out man, I'm only eighteen. It's not like my whole life is going to zoom off into the realm of taxes and laws. Or whatever shit adults do nowadays. Not only is her melodramatic-ness annoying me, it doesn't help having my birthday on the first day of the twelfth grade. Yes I know, it seems like it was only yesterday, when I was being pushed down a few steps of my kindergarten class, I remember specifically having my arm in a cast for three weeks. The boy who did it, well let's just say we've got a bad history. "Chill the fuck out Lea, I'm not going to go crazy, do I need to remind you about the year we have ahead of us?" Did I mention Lea? well if not here it is. Lea is my best friend of thirteen years.....I think? We met in school or something, I stole her muffin and she told the teacher then I got in trouble blah blah blah. Who knew that years later we'd be inseparable. I think the thing that bonds us is our mutual hate for Courtney Rose.

Eugh even the thought of her name was repulsive. Courtney Rose was the biggest bitch you'd ever meet. The pin straight blonde hair hides the devil horns, that are perched on both sides of her head, trust me. I've seen them. As for the skimpy cheerleader outfit that cascades down to less than mid thigh? the attached mini skirt hides the red tail that's curled up under there. God she was terrible. sorry no, she is terrible, I'm starting to think the word 'bitch' is an understatement when describing her. Too bad every other air-head in this school adores her. Instead of the devil they see her as a beautiful angelic girl, the halo and everything. Yeah sure whatever she was Prom queen five times consecutively, straight A's since the seventh grade, had boys drooling at her feet since....forever....no big deal.

"Yeah yeah I know graduation, blah blah blah Satan's going to win prom queen once again." She unlike me did not, I quote, "give a rats ass about graduating" which I disagreed to bearing in mind we planned on going traveling together then to the same college. We decided on growing old and living together, she was more fond of us going gay for each other which to her disappointment I did not. "Glad to know you were listening"

You see out of us two, Lea is more of the socialite, while I here, haven't attended a party since the sixth grade. Sad, I know, but it's one's preference right?and it just so happens for my preference to be staying at home watching Supernatural and or studying.

"Hey frank!" I turned around to see Lea giving a hug to our only, and when I say only I mean it, other guy friend. Although I'm pretty sure those two are together, I'm totally fine with that stuff but I just find it weird that they're not telling me about it. "Soooo birthday sleepover at my house tonight?" Lea chirped, it was tradition, between us three to have a sleepover whenever it was someones birthday. Regardless of if it was a school night cause we're badass like that. Ahaha not. I still wonder why he even hangs out with us, he's Mr.Popular, okay fine Lea is also Mr.Popular well Ms.Popular, but me? I'm just Dev Stone. The new and improved Dev that is. I lost all the fat I carried around from fourth grade. Surprisingly I wasn't bullied for it, I was glad for that but even though everyone was happy with me, then. I wasn't, I kept pushing myself, further and further. I spent two whole summers at the gym, I'm taking weekly Kick boxing classes now and not to be cocky or anything, but I'm the best in that class. Did I mention I was also the only girl which was great since all the guys were wusses and didn't want to hit a girl. I guess being a female has it's perks.

"sorry guys, but I'm meeting with my old friend, he's moving to town and I wanted to help him settle down and shit" He looked really guilty, which made me guilty because no one should ever feel guilty over me and I'm ju- Oh just shut up Dev.
"nah dude it's fine, really. Go have fun with your guy friend" His face lightened up a bit, that was a good sign. I turned to Lea to see her sticking her bottom lip over her top, in an attempt to look like a child who's lolly was taken away. "b-b-but it's Birthday Sleepover Day! we never miss birthday sleepover day!, it makes our friendship stronger, it's our present for each other so we don't have to buy expensive stuff. If we miss this then we'll start to drift away then we won't be friends, frank will turn out an asshole, I'd become cheer captain and poor Dev might go back to being fa-"

"SHUT UP LEA!" We both screamed simultaneously at her, it was pretty funny actually, to see her rambling. She went so off topic so much to a point where we questioned her sanity.
"Frank it's fine, ignore her and go hang out with your friend, I'm sure he's going to need your help" I said quickly then looked at Lea who sighed in defeat. Man, this girl is going to get an A for drama."Ah shit Dev I feel so bad now, are you sure? She's right, we never miss birth-OH I KNOW," We both were startled by his sudden outburst."You guys should come with! Dev! I can already tell, you'd be great friends with him"

At this point Lea was nodding her head vigorously as Frank continued how I'd 'be great' with his friend. Fuck it, it's my birthday. What's the worst that could happen right?
