AN: This is the last post that I found on Wattpad. I wrote it two years ago so it was really bad and I had to go back and revise it A LOT. Anyway hope you enjoy
I woke to the sound of my alarm singing happy birthday. But it's not my birthday. It's my best friend Josh's. We have known each other since we were in diapers and our friendship is still going strong. We have been through everything together and he has never turned his back on me, so I decided to throw him a surprise pool party. I have been planing it for weeks. I have all the decorations and pool toys hidden in a closet downstairs. I made sure I booked a DJ and a caterer. All of his close friends are coming, and he hasn't found out yet. All I have to do is get the party ready in time and make sure everything goes smoothly while Josh has the time of his life.
I got into a shower and, started to getting dressed. After rummaging through my closet I decided on wearing a white halter bikini top with the palm leaves on it and plain my plain black bikini bottoms. Since there was still work to be done before the party started I also put on a pair of black shorts. I was walking down the stairs when I heard the doorbell ring.
"Perfect timing" I said to no one in particular.
I opened the door to all the Sidemen except for Josh. Before I could even say hello they all started talking at once and pushed passed me and headed towards my kitchen. There was no doubt they were going to try to eat all my food. As I entered the kitchen they were ransacking my cupboards and fridge. Seeing as I hadn't eaten breakfast yet I joined them.
"So I have all the decorations in the hall closet, and the DJ and caterer will be here at 7:00 to set up their stuff. Everyone is supposed to get here at 7:30 and Josh will get here at 8:00. If we want to stay on schedule we should start decorating in about 20 minutes." I said as we crowded around the island.
"Ok" they said in unison. We hung streamers from the ceiling and put glow sticks in the pool. There were snacks on all the tables and drinks in tubs set around the house. There was a wide range of bathing suits in the spare room closest to the pool for people who forgot about the pool part of the pool party.
It was 7:15 and everything looked perfect. Now all that was left to do was hope it stayed that way.
TIME SKIP
The party is going great. Josh just opened all his presents. He loved his Rolex I got him. I was in the pool talking to a friend from Uni when I saw Josh on the other side of the pool giving me a really mean glare. I swam over to him to see what was wrong. "Hey you look like I just killed your dog. What's wrong?" "Who was that guy you were talking to?" He asked ignoring my question. "That was Jasper we met at Uni. That doesn't explain why you are looking at me like that. Do you not like the party?" I asked hoping I hadn't gone through all of this just for him to not like it. "Nothing (Y/N) it's fine. The party is great. Just forget about it and enjoy yourself." He said while walking away from me. I quickly climbed out of the pool wrapped a towel around myself and grabbed his arm hoping he would talk to me if we were somewhere with some privacy. I took him up to my room and sat him on the bed and stood in front of him.
"You know you can tell me if there is something wrong? If you don't like the party, you know you don't have to lie about it right?" He didn't say anything. He just buried his face in his hands and sighed. "Please Josh, just tell me what's wrong" I begged. "You flirting with that guy is what's wrong (Y/N). He doesn't deserve you. He doesn't know you the way I do. I know you like the back of my hand but you don't even notice me. And I can't take it anymore." He had me pushed against a wall with very little space in between us. I had seen moments like this in plenty of movies but it still surprised me when he leaned in and kissed me. Before I could process what was happening he pulled away and walked out of the room.
He left me there with my heart beating out of my chest and only one thought running through my head. He likes me back.
