It was the Friday before Aria's birthday and everyone was already stressed out. She was turning 16 so she wanted to make sure that her sweet 16 was just perfect. She didn't want any bit of her 16 birthday to be ruined so she mad sure all the decorations were strong. As for the others they made sure color combinations were all right, Aria loved blue so much that she wanted every shade of blue to be part of her sweet 16. Her theme was going to be the ocean because she had always wanted to go to one. She also wanted her guests to have fun and feel relaxed, so they made sure to set some games up and give away prizes. This was going to be the best Sweet 16 ever!
On the day of her 16 birthday her sisters were helping her put on her make up and doing her while Daniel was going in and out of the room bringing her stuff. While he was doing that the others were making sure that everything at the venue was perfect and made sure the food was ready. As it was getting closer and closer to the time for the party to start her family kept reminding her to not let anything get between her and her friends. "Mom I promise I won't get mad over the slightest thing." She assured her mom as she fixed her big light blue dress. She had her hair curled and had a blue crown one. After fixing the dress her older sister and her older brother gently grabbed her hands and walked He down stairs. When they brought her outside her friends were waiting outside for her. They were all wearing blue the girls were wearing ocean blue dresses same for the boys but for Daniel he was wearing the same shade she was wearing. Daniel walked to her gently grabbed her and walked her to the limousine. Inside the car was full of balloons and streamers. They got inside the car and they left for the place. Everyone was excited for the party to start.
At the venue
Daniel opened the door for Aria and helped her with her dress before walking her to the podium. Before all the guests came they took her to a little changing room and waited until they told her to come out. There was a lot of commotion going around as people entered the venue in blue attire. The whole placed looked like an ocean. 20 minutes after everyone got settled down in a seat the Mc came out. "Wow, look at all of you, I feel like I'm in the middle of the ocean." He joked as he came out, the people chuckled here and there at his little Jokes until it was finally time for the birthday girl to come out. "Give it up for our beautiful princess Aria!" He cheered as she walked in with her friends behind her. "But y'all, before we start our birthday girl wants to say something." He said as he handed here the mic. Her friends all cheered for her as she was about to speak. "Thank you, thank you guys so much for coming today to celebrate my sweet sixteen. My sister and brothers did such a great job planning this party." She said, "my friends did a great job helping to." She smiled and they all looked at her. "We'll be back in a second." She said handing the mic back to the Mc. Everyone cheered as she walked out.
5 minutes later they came out again but this time the music was playing and they were ready to dance. The people cheered as they all got into position getting ready to dance. All the lights were dimmed and it was dark except for the spotlight from the DJ. The first song that played was very up beat, they spent days practicing the choreography and they felt proud of themselves as the danced so smoothly. The people cheered and some also got up and went to dance along with them. They were having a blast and Aria was looking around to see if everyone else was enjoying as well. The next few songs were slow ones but once the DJ turned off the lights and put on some lasers the party got wilder. Almost all her guests got up and danced along with. Lots of people Aira school friends were also on the dance floor throwing money one her and hyping her up. As the Dj played more hyped song a lot more people got up on the dance floor and start dancing along. But after 30 minutes of dancing the DJ stopped the music and it was time for games to start.
The first game they decided to play was limbo. Aria stood under a pole and her friends had to try and put dollar bills in her dressas low as they could go. They were all laughing and cheering as they tried to get her money. Her friend Josh was last and he couldn't make it very far before he dropped and lost. The other teams all lost as well. Next was something called the red cup race. This was a relay where each team had to run a lap and fill up a giant red plastic cup with water. They couldn't do this in the venue so they got all the guests outside in the filled excited to see who was going to win. First she had to change out of her big dress into something short. She changed out of her dress and into a a mini blue dresses an ran outside to meet the others. The were teams of four and the first group to go was her group. After here group went the other 5 groups went. In the Josh's group ended up winning by there cup being filled the most. After playing lots of games they all went back inside and took a break as they got food.
In Aria's changing room
"Omg that was so much!" Love said as they all slumped on the couch, "I know right, like that game was a whole exercise." Sammy agreed. "It was fun!" Aria rejoiced, "I'm glad you liked it." They all said. "You guys need to hurry up and change and come out, the food is being passed around." Her sister came in, "okay we'll be there." Aria replied. The others looked at each other and quickly got up. They went to their dressing rooms and all changed again. Daniel stayed with Aria and helped her with whipping. "You must be so happy," he remarked whipping her face, "of course I am, I have my boyfriend, my friends, and my family!" She smiled looking up at her, "You look so pretty," he said pushing her hair behind her ears. He looked at her smiling and he went in for a kiss. He gently held her banding head and kissed her harder. "Okay, not now!" She said pulling away from the kiss. "You should go and change," she said smiling. Before leaving he kissed her on the forehead and walked out.
10 minutes later after changing the all went out and eat with the others. They chatted with some of the guests, also some of the guests were on the dance floor as The Dj played their favorite songs. After everyone finished eating it was finally time for father and daughter dance. Aria was so excited for this since her and her father practiced everyday for this. Every night when they got home he would teach her how to dance better and she would practice in front of the mirror. She was so happy to see him on the dance floor as well. Aria and her dad danced together and did a simple dance step. Once they finished dancing everyone cheered for them and clapped for them. After the dance was over everyone got up and started to dance again.
When people were dancing she went to go talk to her friends. She was so happy to see them and they were so happy to see her too. They talked for a good hour before it was time for cake. Her mom made her a beautiful cake with blue frosting and ocean blue pearls. They sang happy birthday then cut the cake. Everyone ate the cake and passed the plate around and took a piece of the cake.
After they cut the cake and blew out the candles Aria made everyone gather in the dance floor to dance with their lovers or friends. As everyone gathered the MC cued the DJ and the He started playing slow dance music. As the song was ending a loud applause filled the room as everyone applauded Aria's birthday. The MC thanked her for coming and asked if anyone would like to say something about Aria. Aria had never been that emotional before but now she couldn't hold back tears. She looked around at the many people who cared so much about her, it was overwhelming. And then a voice came from behind her.
"You don't have to be embarrassed about crying. I'm glad you are happy."
Aria turned and saw Daniel standing there smiling at her. She put her hands on his cheeks and kissed him. Everyone cheered them on. Aria pulled away and smiled at him. "Thank you baby." She said softly as she wiped the tears from her eyes. He leaned down and kissed her again. Aria's mother and father walked up to them both. "We just wanted to wish you all the happiness in the world. You deserve it." They hugged each other. Aria turned back to Daniel and he lifted her into his arms. "I love you." She said kissing him. As everyone looked at them they all had smiles on their faces as they cheered.
