Hide Behind White Lies

Best in Surprises

I followed what she wants me to do. As i turn my back on i see everyone standing in front of our picture looking all gorgeous and handsome. 

All of us in one great big picture.

"Happy Birthday Diana" Madison said as she comes forward to hug me

"Everyone..." I said as i lean towards to Madison and hugged her crying

"We don't really have any idea what we could give to a lady who has almost everything-” Jackson says as they starts to come forward to hug me

"But we hope after what we did tonight... you could feel loved and happy with us" Sophie continued as she join the group hug

"You have no idea how happy i am... Thank you so much for this day. You guys are the best" i said whipping up my tears from my cheeks

"I have to say sorry for you know... using those records and these picture without your permission tho." Sophie breaks up the drama "But no worries Luke helped me through this" she continued

We all laughed at Sophie's explanation about this surprise. "No worries Sophie i don't mind anything that you did and all i can say now is Thank you and i love you all so much" i said taking a step back from the huddle

"Everything you see here is all your babe btw." Sophie said "and of course you welcome" giving us her queen voice and making as laugh out loud

"Sorry to buzz the fun now but i think it’s almost time to go home now??I means It’s already midnight and you don't guys think we should face Diana's birthday in here right?" Martin suddenly talks behind the boys back

"Oh yea... but can you guys go home first i just wanna stay here and look at the pictures for a while, i mean i know i can have everything that’s in here but you know? Can i please...?” I excused before everyone agreed on what Martin just said "Ow and Justin leave me my car keys please, I’m gonna be needing that" I demanded

"Oh yea ha-ha nice drive, i enjoyed it" Justin smiled giving me back my car keys

"Well i guess we'll just see you on the house babe?" Madison said as she hugs me

"Be careful and don't be silly driving alright?" Michael said leaving me his bright smirk

"Hey I’m a better driver at night remember!!!" I cleared it out sticking out my tongue as he leaves

"Be careful Diana! See yah" Kylie and Jackson shouted leaving while their hold hands together

As they make their way going back to the house i see myself going back to the grounds to look at every picture right from the start making me stay for a while on the picture where i see myself with my family being all together and happy

"I wish i could remember both of you being on that moment even before this picture was taken" I whispered into thin air

"That day... you win the championship on your first professional archery competition, your father is so proud of you and Luke was so amazed on how you win the champions against Kylie and the other great archer across the world" Sophie suddenly said standing close to the door "I know you asked us to leave you alone here but i just couldn't, i mean i could just stay here at the door or even at your car just don't push me away to go back with them yet?" She continued acting like a kid asking for a play

"You're the best person i needed right now Sophie, of course you can stay. Come here babe join me and tell me everything you know with this pictures will you?" I smiled asking her to be close with me

We walk and talk across the halls and room to look and talk about the pictures that she chooses to put on and the reason of her choosing it.

"There's this picture of you and Martin being out from our dinner because both of you don't stop staring each other like you guys already killing each other by just staring, well if you asked us about that? It would be funny but that is not just a normal dinner like we used to have. It’s a funeral dinner for the leader of family tree i guess?" Sophie explained about the picture of me and Martin

For some reason each family in our group is a class family, wealthy enough per say. And our family tree is not composed by a single name it composed by a lot and the greatest lead of this family clan is Michael's family The Walters. His family owns the biggest company in the states and a lot more business across the country which makes them the wealthiest family but not only because of money that cause them to be the lead of the clan but because of their own personality of kindness and humble even with their wealthy living every rich family votes for them to be the head.

Suddenly I stop in front of my picture it was me smiling so big not knowing why but when i see it i just feel so sad making myself cry alone

"Hey... What's the matter Diana?" Sophie asked hugging me tight

"I just don't understand why I couldn't remember myself Sophie?!!! What happen? My family, you, and the others! Why I couldn't remember any of you when everyone is so important to me?" I cried so hard hugging her more

"Hush now... it's okay Diana I understand it and also your parents..." She said scrubbing my hair trying to make me feel calm "I know them enough to say they are proud of you even they're not here anymore" she continue

"I miss them so much Sophie, I just wanna go back to the past whatever happens" I said slightly fixing myself up

"I know Diana but we couldn't..." She simply said "I guess that everything happens for a reason is true in anyway now..." she continue as she tries to look the other way to hide her face starting to whipped her eyes

"I love you, Thank you for always being here with me Sophie... You're the best sister i ever have" I said holding her hands tightly "I'm ready to leave now? Would you like to test drive my new baby?" I said smiling at her

Without hesitation she faced me with a big smile getting the key from me and makes our way to my car.

Right after we get into the car Sophie go straight to driver seat and get in "C'mon Diana let’s get this baby on the road already!!!" She shouted sitting half of her body on the window of the car

"I’m coming alright hahaha just don’t kill me night before my birthday please and take care of my baby Sophie or swear ill kill right after you hurt this gorgeous" I demanded as I enter to the car

Sophie drives our way back to the house but surprisingly she didn’t go straight from the parking in front of the house but on the back of it where the beach is almost small meters away from the house. When we stop I can’t stop noticing a mini lane of candles on the sand making its way into some place my eyes can’t reach suddenly my door open "If I may?" Justin asked as he opens my door reaching his hand to help me out

My car is no doubt has its height but for Justin it’s just a car with a normal height which makes it easier for him to help me out. "Hey you" I said as I smile to Justin making my way out of the car

He just simply gave me a smile as we walk down to the road that guides by the candles on its side "Are you ready for the final event of the night Diana?' he asked 

"Yea, but we all know that I'm already 18? We all just do this because I couldn't celebrate it last year. I said being sarcastic not looking at him

"Hey, you don’t have to break the vibe because we celebrating your birthday even though the age is not right. I mean we don’t actually have to talk about the age ha-ha you still look like 14 for me anyway" He smirked putting his hand over my shoulder

"You know our height is not so far from my own height right? Soon enough I’ll be able to catch up on your anyway" I said crossing my arm into my chest

"If you say so anyway close your eyes and trust me" He said stopping me from walking

"Well I guess I have no choice" I said closing my eyes giving him my hands

We walked slowly as I feel my steps into some solid wood floors and I started hearing some High School Musical Music on the background until I realized that Justin managed me to make a stand into some center of a room 

"You can open your eyes now" He said

I opened my eyes looking at them HAPPPYYYY BIRRTTHHHDAAAYYYY DIANNNNAAAAAA!!!! They all shouted to me 

"Omy Thank you guys" I said smiling big until

"May I have this dance young lady?" A familiar voice approached from my back.

"Luke! How? When..?" I said shocked as I see my brother looking so handsome asking me for a dance

"I would really love to answer every question you have in mind my sister but for now could you at least accept my offer to dance?" He smiled shyly looking at everyone who is waiting for me to accept his offer

"I would love to Luke" I smiled getting close to him to hug and start dancing, Luke knows how crazy fan I am of High School Musical when I was in Junior High .

Every dances and song are all in my mind at least before the accident happen.

"Do you think you could do this dance?" He asked me

I- I stopped holding his hand

Take my hand, take a breathe...

Pull me close and take one step...

Keep your eyes locked to mine...

And let the music be your guide...

Suddenly he started singing along with the music and like Gabriela on the movie I followed his steps and tried to sing along with him for a while You should really answer every question that I have for you young man! I demand as I hug him closer 

"I guess that would be the plan after this party, But for now can we just enjoy this for a moment?" He said politely 

I simply nod. And as he turns me around I started facing Martin. I realized everyone is dancing with us and they all know the steps just like the movie that makes me in

a moment that I feel like living into that movie which I really admire.

Every turns our partners switch to the other and dance for a minute, lastly I have Justin to be my partner "hey, you really look amazing tonight" He said looking at me straightly

I feel my face blushed for a moment as i heard his voice close to me "Thanks Justin you too actually" I said until the song ended

Right after we dance us all seated into a big table seeing the foods that I guess they all prepared for this dinner. You know guys seeing you here is such a blessing for me I mean I couldn’t ask for more after our parents are gone I asked looking after to Luke who give a smile of a brother

"I couldn’t agree more Diana, She is lucky to have each of you being her best friends. I hope to have some group like this but lucky for me I have my very own best friend and wife sitting with me right now" He said looking right to Jasmine who smiles so brightly 

"Hahaha Get a room you two love birds!! Make yourself a baby!" Madison laughed cheering for the two 

We all laughed hard as we enjoyed Madison’s madness of jokes on the table.

"Just make sure to keep an eye to Kylie and Jackson over their Madi. Maybe they’re the ones who will do a baby later night" I said smirking badly looking at them

"Oh back off Diana, she’s safe now so even we do it how many times I will be safe too Jackson "said proudly laughing with the boys

"And back off Jackson because nothing’s going to happen tonight because you ruin it!" Kylie said getting mad at Jackson

Making everyone cheered for a fight

"Ooohhh Fight Fight Fight!" Sophie said 

"Nice way to make it out tonight man" Michael said tapping Jacksons shoulder

"Way to go brother" Justin cheered rising up his beer 

"Hahaha I can’t believe I can make you guys fight over a simple threat" I laugh hardly pointing to Jackson who really looked depressed after getting denied by his girlfriend giving me his middle finger letting me know how mad he is

"Well enough with the talk about that kiddos, It’s time for Diana to blow her candles!!!" Luke said as he handles a chocolate cake on his hand 

Whoooo!!! Make a wish! Make a wish! They all cheered as Luke gets all their attention

I closed my eyes and make a wish as they say and officially blow my candles "Yey! Nicely done princess" Luke said smiling tapping my shoulder but you know there is something wrong on this cake? He continue

"Wha-” When I’m about to ask Luke slam the cake into my face without any hesitation and put everything into my face and even my dress making me all dirty

Ohhhhh! All the boys said as well as the girls who laughed at me

"Oh noooo" making a sad face and puppy eyes to Jasmine who is beside me smiling looking at me being full of pity in the moment

She gestured her hand for a hug to support me until I she slams a piece of the cake on the rest of my face which finish my make over covered by cake makes me look horror lady who would kill anyone who is close

"Ahh! I can’t believe you! I hate you" I said giving a sad face to Jasmine

"ha-ha so sorry Diana but I couldn’t resist the feeling of ruining your make up tonight, Plus you look amazing with the chocolate make up though" She explained stepping back from me and smiling

"Hey! Aren’t you gonna defend me on this one?" I said to everyone who is busy laughing on their seat

"Sorry babe but this time you’re on your own." Madison said still laughing while holding her wine

"You look Yummy Diana hahaha I bet every shark on the will be glad to taste you!" Martin said cracking his stomach on laughter

Even Sophie is busy on laughing until I realized that she is a very easy target for me right now since Luke is so much stronger for me so he is the least person I would love to attack, Jasmine is already running on the back of Luke. Justin who is close to me to is a taller than me right now that his head can’t be touchable for me so I grabbed a piece of cake and slam it to Sophie’s cheek and then laughed hard leaving everyone stunned on what I did Oh no no! Princess you did not! Sophie subject me for what I did and she grabbed some piece for her own and then directly put the cake on Madison’s face that leave me stunned and laughed right after realizing that

Sophie is gonna be dead soon. In all of us girls Madison is the one who always take care of her face because she’s a model.

"Oh no! I’m so sorry Madison!" I just think you missing the fun here Sophie said giving her Queen Bee ego towards Madison

Who grabbed some piece of cake that is ready to be shot into another human being and surprisingly she chose Michael to be target.

"What the hell Madison!" Michael shouted from his sit

"Oops. Ha-ha i think i miss a shot here, sorry I'm jot Diana who's great at target" Madison smiled winking

"That's it your dead now" Michael said as he grabbed a big piece of cake and directly putting it into Jackson's face 

Making all of us into laughter seeing how Jackson fell into his seat because Michael was too strong for him.

Everyone takes their advantage of Jackson being busy from his fall to run away as soon as possible from him because we all know for sure that we all end up having the rest of the cake on our faces.

Sophie and I ran together left way from the house getting near into the water from the beach while Madison and the rest of the squad ran into the other direction to save their faces from mad Jackson who apparently busy taking the whole cake from the table and getting ready to run with his fancy suit and shoes into the sand.

He looks on both side sighting Kylie running after Martin and Michael. Jackson smirked giving every sign that he found his victim. "Run!!!" I shouted waving my hands to the air making a sign that Jackson is on his way towards to them

"Don't you think we should save ourselves too Diana? Madison said smiling beside me

"Well we both know Jackson loves me enough not to go after me" I said laughing at Kylie seeing her reaction as he see Jackson holding a big piece of the cake

"Diana? If what you say was true? Then why the hell Jackson is on his way towards us?" Madison said slowly moving back trying to catch my hand

"Jackson? What are you doing?" I asked slowly taking steps backward 

"Ow poor Diana Do you really think I can put this tasty chocolate on my girlfriend gorgeous face after all?" Jackson said continuing his walk towards me and Madison

"I think we should start running now Diana" Madison said turning backwards to run

I followed her instant not looking back to see Jackson but keep running until we are out of breathe.

"What the hell? Madison said looking back to the house seeing no one is trying to catch us even Jackson is not any way close to us is that some kind of his jokes to make us run?" She asked

"If it is a joke then the sharks I bet will be gladly hear it" I said sitting on the sand

"Actually it’s not!" Jackson said from my back putting the big piece of cake into every part of my face while his other big hand supporting my head while he surely put every part of the cake into my face.

"What the f****!?" I screamed Jackson you are so dead meat! Said guessing where he is by waving my hand into the air

"How the hell did you get here without leaving any track?" Madison asked

"Well dear U actually missed that part" He said pointing into some life guard office that has these 4x4 motor bikes that they used for emergency "So now before she kills me I better leave now!" he said jumping back into the motor leaving me and Madison 

"Haha I'm so sorry babe! Are you okay Diana?" Madison asked helping me to clean up some of the cake from my eyes for me to see her here let me help

"Oh I swear this vacation is gonna be his own Halloween!!!" I said clenching my teeth together

"Easy now there C'mon let’s get back for now" She said offering her hand to help me to get up into my feet

As long as I stand up from the sand me and Madison started walking back to the house where everyone is waiting for us

"Anyway Diana, can I ask you something?" Madison said walking slowly 

"Sure anything" I said not looking her and focusing removing some chocolates from my hair

"Do you love someone right now?" She suddenly asked

After I wake up from the accident I never had my chance to think about love now actually having everyone with me right now like this is enough for me but I can't deny the fact that maybe in some point I feel something more than friends with him... 

"No, what are you? Do I know him?" I said stopping her to face me

"Hahaha silly you... but yea I think you know him and no it's not that I really love him anyway" She said moving her gaze to the ocean "Don't sweat on it. I just... don't know what to do actually?" she continue walking

"I may not give u a full sense of advice here babe but if you love someone I think they deserve to know it. It’s the least thing you can actually do for that person." I said catching up to her "Plus if that guy is really for you then who knows maybe his the first one to say that he loves you too" 

"I just wish I can do it like how I do my things now... but I know either way..." She said not removing her gaze from the ocean

"What did you say after that?" I asked trying to get her attention

"Oh nothing don't mind it" She said whipping her eyes removing her tears

"Are you okay?" I asked holding her hand

"Yea c'mon it’s getting cold out here" she said smiling at me

"Madison! Diana! C'mon we prepared some fire here join us!" Luke said as he saw us walking towards them

"I'll just go to back before that I can't be this dirty anymore" I kindly said to Madison "I’ll just catch you guys here after" I said as I leave to fix my face 

"Hey guys... Diana is just going to clean up" Madison said as she approaches everyone

"Here clean up..." Justin said handling some towel to Madison

"Thanks" looking at Michael who's following Diana's gaze towards the house
