"Summer, I know you want to catch up with Liza, but your classmates are still downstairs."

"Yes mum," I answered quickly.

We both went downstairs and continued with my party.

At 8 PM, everyone started to leave my house. Liza wasn't going to stay for the night, she was the last one to leave apart from Liam and Mrs Dawson, so I walked her out the door, her mum was waiting for her in their car.

I walked back and Liam was waiting at the door. "Thank you for coming. How did you find out it's my birthday?"

"I have my ways." he smiled and I can see his white teeth.

'Is it because I missed him so much that I'm even noticing his teeth?'

I don't know how it happened, but my back is now leaning at the shut door. "I know I told you that I'm not going to this again. I'm sorry for not keeping my word."

The next thing I felt was his lips on mine. I don't know how long our lips are pressed together, but it seemed like forever. It was my very first kiss and I had it with Liam.

I heard my mum and Mrs Dawson, he must have heard them too. We separated and the door opened.

"Happy birthday again Summer. Have breakfast with us tomorrow, Liam will leave in the afternoon." Mrs Dawson.

"Thank you, Mrs Dawson. I'll see you tomorrow morning." 'What did I just say?'

They both left and we went in.

I cannot sleep that night. My first kiss just happened. Not with my boyfriend but I don't care. It's Liam! Liam kissed me. ON MY LIPS! How am I supposed to sleep?

So I decided to open my presents instead. Mum gave me a jewellery box. It's a small and cute one. Dad gave me a medium-sized box, a next card and a note saying, "It has £100.00 in it. Fill this box with what you want. All the love Dad." 'Dad is the best.' in my mind.

I opened Joey's one and he gave me a cellphone case, the one I really like but a bit pricey.

Liza's one was a Reisling wine and a box of my favourite chocolate. She also has a note, "Do not drink until you're 18 :) but eat the chocolates until you get fat!"

Other friends gave me random stuff. I noticed the box Liam gave me. On the little tag, he wrote "Happy Birthday Summer. Let me put this on you." I gently opened it and it was a necklace. The pendant was really nice. It's an infinity pendant with a blue gem in the middle. I really like it, a lot. I closed the box and left it there in my vanity mirror.

I woke up early and excitedly. I'm going to have breakfast with Mrs Dawson and Liam. I went to have a shower and put on a plain white top and printed shorts, I wore my white trainers and I took my white cardigan just in case it's a bit cold. My hair was tied in a high ponytail. I had my final looked in the mirror and I'm satisfied with how I look so I went downstairs and told my mum I'm going to have breakfast with the Dawson's.

After I shut our door, I remembered Liam's gift. I went back to my room and chose my pink mini shoulder bag to put it in, I also put my phone and purse inside then I head out.

I rang their bell and it took a while before Liam opened it. He was still in his pj's and seemed like he just woke up. I smiled and bit my lip, "I'm way too early I think."

Liam smiled and laughed a little. "Come in. Mum's still in bed. I thought I'm picking you up, but nevermind. Since you're early and you woke me up, I'll do breakfast for you." he gently touched the tip of my nose.

I followed him inside and shut their door.

"Wait here, I haven't brush my teeth yet. Let me fix myself first. You want to watch while you're waiting? He asked before he headed upstairs.

"I don't watch TV. I'm good here. Just go and don't worry about me."

After ten minutes he came back down, he's already changed wearing his black basketball shorts, a black hooded shirt, a white rubber shoes and his hair was fixed. He still looked handsome in my eyes whether he just woke up or like this.

"Nice outfit huh', going out to play basketball?" I teased him.

He looked at his clothes and looked at me. "Breakfast or not? Your choice!"

I went to him, "Breakfast of course!"

I sat on the high stool and watched him prepare everything.
