I came home later that evening after a long session in the lab. Cheryl and Brigetta had gone to their apartments earlier. They had successfully done their experiments meanwhile I had to redo mine due to an error. God knew what I felt when I found about the error.
Now I have arrived at home. As I walked into the house, I looked for my housemates and found Larry was sitting comfortably on the sofa while focusing on his phone.
"I'm home. I'm sorry that I'm late. I have to redo my experiment. Anyway, where's Mel?" I asked Larry. He said Melody was upstairs in her room getting ready for the party tonight. I just nodded my head and went upstairs to my room. I also need to ready myself. A birthday party won't complete without the birthday girl, right?
After taking a shower, I went to my wardrobe to check out the outfits that would suit me tonight. Suddenly, there's a knock on my door. I saw Melody coming inside my room.
"Hey.. Needs some help?" Melody asked. I nodded.
"Yes please. You know the last party that I've ever attended was your birthday last year. I need some of your fashion sense." I told her while showing my wardrobe.
"Alright babe. Let me be your fairy godmother tonight." Melody said while looking into my wardrobe. Soon she took out a black off-shoulder dress with long sleeves that still wrapped in plastic. It is above knee length and above the shoulder it has a cross strings. I don't even remember when did I have this kind of dress since I never wore a dress with a length above my knee. She looked at me.
"You.. I think I gave this for your birthday last year. But let me guess, you never wear it?" Melody asked. Oh.. So, Melody was the one who bought it for me.
"I think so..." I said while chuckled awkwardly. She looked at me with disbelief.
"I'm so glad I bought it. At least you got a dress to wear tonight." Melody said. I widen my eyes.
"You want me to wear that. That looks so... so short, Mel. Won't my panty show up if I sit down later?" I said to Melody. Melody laughed.
"Girl.. Your panty won't show up unless you're the one who want to show it. Now.. Let's just enjoy on how pretty you will be in this bad ass, okay? Don't let people suppress your beauty." Melody said. Melody always have something to say to make you agree with her.
"Alright, let's stop your TeD talk. I'll wear it. Please do your magic. Larry must be rolling his eyes at least 50 times because we are taking so much time. We don't want an angry Larry for my party." I said. Melody laughed.
After I wore the dress, I sat down on my bed while Melody prep my face with skincare. s
After that, he did my makeup with my makeup set that I only used for some occasions. Then, she curled my hair half down. She took a pair of big loop earrings from the earring collections that I seldom touch. I love collecting it because they are cute and beautiful despite I rarely wear it. She put on the earrings for me on my ears as the finishing touch and brought me standing in front of the mirror next to my wardrobe.
"How was it?" Melody asked me.
I looked to my reflection. I do look beautiful. She enhanced my eyes with the smokey eyes makeup. My lips were coloured with wine red lipstick. My jaws and nose were refined a bit with some contour. Melody really are good at this.
"Wow.. Are you that you're going for a journalist as your career, Mel? I think you should become a makeup artist instead." I said. Melody just smiled proud.
"Now get take this clutch and go wait downstairs with Larry. I'm going to take my boots from my room that will compliment with your looks. Now, go." Melody said to me.
We got out of my room and separate at the stairs. I went down the stairs and saw that Larry was still on the sofa. His ears are sensitive to sounds so he realised that I was there with him.
"Bitch why are you guys so late. The party would start at any minute you know." Larry said and when he saw me, his eyes widen a bit. I just smiled at him.
"So..?" I asked Larry. Larry walked to me slowly as he scanned me over with his eyes.
"So what? You looked hot bitch. I never knew you could pull this "bad ass bitch" look. I mean looked at you. You are so gorgeous I could be straight you know." Larry complimented me. I just laugh his last words as I know he was joking.
"Oh please Larry. We know you won't be straight just after seeing gorgeous girl." Melody told Larry while going down the stairs. Larry just rolled his eyes.
"Here comes trouble. I don't know why I become your friend. You are such an annoying bitch, Mel." Larry said to Melody. Melody didn't get hurt by that. All of us are so used to him being like that.
" Well.. Perhaps no one understand you better than us." Melody said while shrugging her shoulder. I just chuckled looking at their little dear fight.
"Enough with your fiery words, guys. Let my birthday end with peace, okay? Now give me those boots and let us enjoy the night. So where are your boyfriend, Mel?" as soon as I said that, a car horn was heard.
"That's him. Come on, angels. We have a party to attend." Melody said. After make sure our house are locked, we went to the club together with Melody's boyfriend.
^^^^^^-^^^^^^
We arrived at the club a bit late. As soon as we arrived, a whole crowd of people was already there. Melody and her boyfriend went to the stage. Melody's boyfriend went to stop the music while Melody took a microphone.
"Evening fellas. Melody is here." Melody said.
"Sorry for disturbing your fun for a bit but today we have a special event in the club. It's my best friend's birthday today. So, give applause to Adelynn. Come here, Adelynn." Melody wave her hand, asking me to go up to the stage with her.
Larry pushed me a bit trying to make me walk towards the stage. However, I grabbed and pulled his hand with me bringing him to the stage with me. Cannot have the moment without my two besties, right?
When we arrived at the stage, Melody's boyfriend brought in a huge birthday cake to the stage. I was surprised when seeing the cake. It is so huge that we can feed everyone in the club with it. Melody leaded the whole crowd singing Happy Birthday song to me. I was so happy with the whole situation. Larry asked me to do a speech and so I did.
"Thank you everyone for such a wonderful surprise and party. Thanks to my besties and the owner of the club. I owe them so much. I hope everyone will have a good time tonight. Now grab your drinks and party!!"
The whole crowd cheered and the dance floor was filled with everyone. I took the moment to to go down the stage and went to the bar to get some drinks. Larry and Melody also did the same. We sat on the chairs at the bars as we arrived and get our drinks.
"Wow guys. That was dope! Thank you Mel, Larry. Say thanks to your bf too." I said to both of Larry and Melody.
"No problem. Your friends at your service." Melody said and we laughed. The bartender came to serve our drinks. We made a cheers and drank.
"Hey Del. I'm going to check my boyfriend for a while. Enjoy your drinks." Melody said. Larry and I just nodded.
"Lucky bitch she has someone to have fun with." Larry said. Melody just winked at him and off to find her boyfriend. Larry rolled his eyes while I laugh seeing these two dorks.
"You should find some fun too, Larry. Haven't your radar scanned some cute guys out there?" I asked Larry. Larry just showed me his uninterested face.
"Well.. I saw some just now but I'm too lazy to move my ass. Let me enjoy the vibe first." he said.
"Just do whatever suits you, Larry." I said.
I took the glass of pina colada and drink it a bit by bit. As I did that, I felt as if there is a pair of eyes was watching me. I looked toward the direction where I felt they were but there were too many people there. I just ignored the feeling and drink my colada. I almost spat the liquid in my mouth when I heard people making out behind me. I saw Larry's disgusted face looking at the couple behind me. I almost laugh because Larry's face looked funny but..
"Jay..." the girl said behind me. Don't tell me that it's Jay that I knew right? I looked toward Larry and raised up one of my eyebrows. As if there is a telepathy, Larry understood and checked. His expression after checking that has confirmed my suspicion. Why on earth was that asshole doing here on my party? I spun around towards the couple.
"I never thought I would saw rats sucking each other damn hard like that in public." I said to them. They immediately stop. Jayson looked surprise to see me there.
"Hello Jayson." I said.
"Never thought that you will attend to your ex's birthday party. Anyway, thank you for coming though. Now, please go and get a room with your bitch." Jayson wanted to say something but he didn't managed to do it. I quickly turned to Larry to ignore Jayson. Larry looked proud at my harsh remarks. I bet he wanted to clap so hard for me.
"Come one, Larry. Let's dance with our whole and hunt for some cute guys tonight. After all, we need some refreshment after dealing some shitheads." I said loudly. Larry winked his eyes and we went to the dance floor. For the rest of the night, all that I remembered was that we drank and dance to our heart content.
