So I was really upset about how the last chapter came out. I really didn't like it, but I've tried over and over and over again to get it right. That was the best that I had. I know it's not the best, but thanks for reading! Anyways back to the story! (: Please Enjoy (:

Today was the day. It was finally the day to perform the play. I was nervous as hell but very excited at the same time. I wasn't going to let anything ruin my mood today. I wasn't going to let the text from last night ruin what should be a special day.

I got up bright and early and had breakfast with my mom. She greeted me when I came down stairs, still in my pajamas. She had a big breakfast spread out all over the table. Pancakes, bacon, toast, orange juice, muffins, and a whole bunch of other things filled my senses. My mouth watered at the sight of it all.

"Thanks mom," I chirped and skipped to sit down. I looked at all the food, I was damn hungry, but this was a lot of food. "Don't you think this is a lot of food though?" I asked. She winked at me and gave me a sly smile. I looked at her confused until I heard shouting.

"Congratulations Abby!" I heard my friends shout. I looked at them, surprise was sure as hell evident on my face. They all grinned at me. Sage held up a huge gift bag and ran to grab me in a hug. I hugged her back and smiled. The rest of my friends all smiled and hugged me. They each gave me a present.

"What's all this for?" I asked. Seb handed me my plate, which was stuffed with extra bacon, since I was craving it.

"Well it's a little celebration for all the hard work you have been through," Kate replied. She smiled and sat down across from me. Carlo sat down next to Kate and put his arm around her.

"But all of you guys have worked hard," I said. "This should be for you too." Sage shook her head.

"Nope," she said popping the 'p.' "This is all for you!" Everybody sat down and had a nice peacful breakfast. Once we were done, Sage, Hanna, Kate, and Sarah had me open the presents they got me. I grumbled but opened them. Sarah got me three new scarfs and a pair of earrings to go with each one. I thanked her and hugged her. Sage and Vince got me a huge teddy bear, a card, and a whole outfit. The outfit was for tonight when we go out. It was beautiful. I loved her taste in dresses. It was a nice strapless cream colored dress. They gave me a necklace, a pair of earrings, a bracelet, and even a new pair of heels to go with it. Carlo and Kate gave me a gift card to Starbucks and Forever 21. I thanked everybody for the generous gifts. I loved them all.

"I'll give you your gift later," Seb whispered into my ear. I smiled, kissed him and nodded. I got dressed after that. I put on my dark Levi's skinny jeans, my white off the shoulder top. It had 'Paris' written across it with a picture of the Eiffel Tower on it. I put on my black ankle boots with it and let my hair down in small loose curls. I put on minimal make-up and headed out. Seb was already inside the car when I got there.

Instead of driving towards school, Seb drove in the other direction. I gave him a confused look. He shrugged and winked at me. We drove unitl the sights were becoming familiar. I rolled down the window and let the sea salt air fan my face. Seb parked in the same spot he did when he took me on our first date. He got out and opened my door for me. He held out his hand and I took it. He smiled softly at me and led me a little close to the edge. He went behind me and put his arms around me and his head on my shoulder. I sighed and melted against him. We just stared out into the ocean. The waves crashed against the rocks and the seagulls flew over the ocean. The sun shined onto the ocean which gave the water a light blue color. It was a beautiful sight to see.

"Abby?" I heard Seb's voice ask.

"Yeah."

"You know I love you, right?" He asked. I looked up at him.
