*Juliet's pov*

"Guys, don't wake her up.."

"I can't I'm too excited."

"She'll wake up eventually."

"Shush!" Then I head a smack, followed by a gasp.

I shouldn't open my eyes, because I knew something really weird would happen if I did. I just kept listening.

"1....2.....3...." Someone whispered.

Then I heard a bunch of horns blast into my ear, which basically makes me go deaf for about 5 seconds, then I open my eyes.

Nash, Cam, Hayes, Matt, Ashley, Lesley and Michelle were crowded beside my bed.

"That wasn't necessary." I laughed.

"Happy birthday!" They yelled.

"It's my birthday? Today?" I said.

They all laughed.

"Yes!"

They placed gifts on my lap.

"Guys, can I get out of bed at least? I want to open them but I just woke up." I smiled.

They nodded and replied with "of course" and left.

I got out of bed and took a quick shower, and put on some sweatpants, a big baggy shirt, and fuzzy socks.

I walked to the kitchen and everyone was sitting around the table.

"Okay, I think we should have some cake and then she should open presents." Lesley said as she handed me a box.

I opened the box, it was a cake that said "sorry for being fabulous."

"Am I fabulous or are you?" I asked her.

"Both." She smiled and we laughed.

We cut slices into the cake and ate it.

"Hey Juliet." Nash said.

"What?"

Something flew from Nash's spoon and into my hair.

It was cake.

"I hate you." I laughed as I grabbed some cake into my hand.

Before Ashley stopped me.

"No food fights! I don't want to clean up again!" She sighed.

Nash and I pouted and continued to eat.

After all the cake was gone Lesley handed me her present first.

"Open it!" She squealed. It was a ginormous box that was as big as me.

I had to get up to open it and I looked inside.

It was a smaller box.

"Lesley seriously?" I whined.

"Keep opening it!" She said.

I groaned and kept opening it, up until it was a medium sized box.

I opened it, and it was a beautiful Canon camera.

"I was thinking, if you loved photography so much maybe you should just become a photographer." She said.

I hugged her, she was the best.

"Okay open mine next." Michelle handed me her box.

It was a normal box, thank god, and I opened it. It was a bracelet.

"It's adorable. Thank you!" I smiled.

Cameron's present was a sweater, Nash's present was even more nerf guns, and Ashley's present was just birthday money and an iTunes gift card.

"I know how much you like music." She smiled.

It was down to Hayes's present.

He handed me a small box.

"I want you to open this in private." He said as he got up.

He reached his hand out for me to grab.

"It's not bad, is it?" I asked.

"No." He said as I grabbed his hand.

I heard an echo of oh's behind me, and I rolled my eyes.

We went to my room and we sat down on the bed.

"Open it." He said.

I ripped the wrapper off and it was two CD's.

One said, "Everything I should've said."

And the other says, "All the things I love about you."

The playlist was on the back, and I kept flipping the disk in awe.

This was the best gift I've ever received.

"Hayes...I don't know what to say.." I smiled.

He pressed his lips against mine, like he knew exactly what to do.

"I knew you'd like it." He said after the small kiss.

"It's so sweet. No one has ever done this before." I said.

"Maybe it's because I was your first boyfriend." He grinned.

"No, remember Aaron?" I said.

"That doesn't count." He pouted as I laughed.

I kissed him softly.

"It does." I laughed.

We walked back to the kitchen and Hayes grabbed my hand.

"I'm taking Juliet out on a date!" He informed.

Everyone nodded but they didn't seem to care.

"Let me get ready first." I said.

"No! You look nice." He said.

"Let me change my outfit." I said as I ran back to my room and get changed quickly.

I put on jeans, the sweater Cam gave me, and my brown boots. I walked back to the kitchen. Hayes took my hand and locked his fingers with mine.

"Nice choice in sweaters." Cam smiled.

"You know it." I said as Hayes dragged me outside and left.

"Where are we even going?" I asked.

"First, movie, then dinner." He said as we walked into the theater.

"Two tickets to Godzilla, please?" Hayes said. The lady gave him the tickets and we got some popcorn.

We went to the theater and there was only a few people.

The movie started and once it was over, I can already say it was better than the original.

"Dinner now?" He said as he grabbed my hand and dragged me out of the movie.

It was 3 o'clock, and right after dinner the sun was setting.

"Let's go back to your place." He said as he dragged me.

We went back to the apartment.

"SURPRISE!"
