Pearl's POV,
"Arg!!!" I let out a loud shrill, as I felt a pair of hands grab onto my fore arm in the pitch black room.
I was about to try lifting the person up and flinging them to the ground, but the light turned back on immediately after my loud shrill, and was followed by the loud voices of my colleagues.
"Happy Birthday, Pearl!" they all screamed startling me even more.
The arm that grabbed me was Sia but she had gone back to join the crowd now as they all sang the happy birthday song for me.
"Blow out the candles, make a wish," Sia yelled after they were done singing.
I stared at all their faces and they all had broad smile on their faces. I thought they had forgotten all about my birthday but it turned out was all an act because they had only been planning to surprise me.
"You honestly didn't think we'd forget did you," Mackenzie said coming over to poke at my shoulder.
I couldn't contain the wide smile that spread across my face as I looked around to see all those faces that were smiling back at me.
I had only been with them for about 6months now and I could say they were the most amazing people I've ever met and I couldn't wish for anything more, so I wished for everything and everyone to stay the same.
"I wish things would never change," I muttered underneath my breath and blew on the candles slowly putting out the lights.
All my life I've been happy. I was a happy child, I grew up with loving parents, I had amazing friends and also had a great teenage life without any form of challenges or emotional roller coasters, and I was so grateful for all these things that I always keep wishing they'll never change.
The fact that I had never faced any form of hardship before always scared the shit out of me, mostly because of the famous sayings that "when life only gave you hardships, then only pleasure awaits you." however in my own case, I fear hardships might be the only thing waiting for me at the end of the road.
I can't imagine leaving a life where all these amazing people don't exist. Hence why I always wished for everything to stay the same.

At the age of 21, I already have the dream life of so many people, I work at a billion-dollar company, had an apartment in my name, the latest car as of now, an amazing family, and a perfect boyfriend who was the sweetest guy ever.
My life is pretty much amazing and I know it, and I wouldn't wish away even a second from it.
"Are you going to throw a real party at home, "Sia yelled after I had blown out the candles. "Yeah you should definitely throw one, it's not every day you turn 21 Pearl,", Mackenzie said and I grinned widely at them but said nothing.
"Night out at Spikes all bills on me!" I yelled after they all stared at me with expectant eyes, and they all roared and cheered.
It was already 7 pm, which was time to get off the office, so we all headed to Spikes together, Mackenzie and Sia coming with me in my car.
Spikes was a hot nightclub, and although we weren't dressed up for a club, we still got in because we always had Company outings there every two weekends.
"Hy Douche!" Mackenzie yelled at the bouncer who only nods in return before letting us in.
When we got in, we were instantly greeted by the overwhelming smell from the mix of body sweats and perfumes together with alcohol all making me feel a little nauseous but we all made our way through the swarm of bodies and went to the bar to get a drink.
"Hey, everyone I have an announcement to make!" A familiar voice yelled immediately after the music stopped playing causing all the dancers to stop dancing and stare at the Dj's post, and I also turned over to see that it was Mackenzie, " what the fuck are you doing?" I whisper yelled, but I doubt she heard me because she continues to speak.
I sat at the bar and hoped with everything I had that she wasn't about to do anything stupid because the Mackenzie I know was a wild girl and could easily cause trouble where ever she went.
"My best friend here," she said pointing at me and every head turned to look at me and I smiled a small smile before she continued," is celebrating her birthday today, and had decided to have all the bills on her today," she finished saying, and before I would have the ability to react, the cheers of everyone there filled my ears and I couldn't help but smile, " my poor credit card, I thought to myself but I wasn't allowed to dwell on it because right after my first shot, I was dragged to the dance floor by both Sia and Mackenzie.
We dance for a while and Sam decided to do something to lighten the night, even more, so he asked the DJ to let him lip sing one of his favourite songs and everyone cheered and waited for him to start singing, but when he started to sing, everyone was completely stunned.
He kept missing so many lines and was completely messing up the rhythms of the songs, and I had to cover my face from the embarrassment because he had announced that the song was dedicated to me and everyone had turned to stare at me before he started singing.
"Get the fuck off that floor you fool!" Some random guy who was completely wasted yell but Sam didn't move he was also drunk so he didn't seem bothered by the fact that everyone was laughing at his ridiculous display.
"Sia please go drag Sam away from the stage," I whispered into Sia's ears and she went to drag him off the stage and the music was back on the next second and everyone started to dance again.
We also took two more shots before going back to the dance floor and started dancing.
I danced for a while before I left the dance floor to go take a short break at the bar, and also to settle the bills for the night.
"I'll handle that," A familiar husky voice said from behind me, sending chills down my entire body.
