It was a tradition to go and eat at a little restruant in Forks. Billy, Jake, and I all ways went for my birthday. It was my favorite part of the day. Today was my day, my borthday. I was finally sixteen! I woke up early and got ready. Billy had not even gotten up yet. I was excited about today, it felt like today was going to be great.
I sat in my room putting on make up.
"Lila." Jake whispered. "Birthday girl, you are all ready a wake?"
"Yep!" I chirped happily. "I am so excited! I could barley go to bed last night!"
"Why are you putting on make up?" Jake sighed in disappointment. "You know are beautiful without it. Every guy in high school is going to drool over you!"
"Jake." I laughed. "A little extra make up never hurt no one."
"Okay, well I guess I will get ready and then we can head off and eat." He said. "Sound like a plan?"
"Sure does!" I said smiling. "Hurry!"
I finished getting ready and went to the living room.
"Happy birthday sweetheart!" Billy said. "Sixteen! Where has the time gone?"
"You never said that when I turned sixteen." Jake said jokingly.
"Happy sixteenth birthday!!" Ella said as she came from the kitchen.
"Ella!!!" I squealed. "You made it!"
Ella was Jake's sister. His real sister, she was like my real sister.
"I would not miss your sixteenth birthday." She said as she hugged. "Dad, Jake, how are you too doing?"
"We are doing good!" Jake said for the both of them. "How long are you in town for?"
"Just today, I leave tonight. "Ella said a little sad. "But let's make the best of it! Jake you have shot up a foot since the last time I saw you!"
I looked at Jake who was standing beside me. I did not come up to his shoulder any more. He had grown a lot over night.
"Growth spert." He laughed. "Who is ready to go eat birthday beakfast?"
"I am!" Billy said. "Let's go!"
We got to the little restruant and we did not get to sit our usual table because Charlie, Sloan, and Bella had to sit with us. ON MY BIRTHDAY! Of all days, I wanted this to be like it use to.
"I did not know it was your birthday." Sloan said as he sat in front of me. "Happy birthday."
"Thank you." I said as nicely as possible.
"Jake, what should I get?" I asked. "I just do not know which one to pick."
"You want the choclate chip pancakes." He laughed. "You all ways do." He smiled.
"Thank you. That is a fantastic idea." I said a bit sarcastic. I all ways got the choclate chip pancakes on my birthday. But I all ways asked Jake what should because he picked them out the first birthday I had without my parents. He thought they would cheer me up. Which they did.
After we ate our food we sat around and talked to Bella, Charlie, and Sloan. I just sat there half board, staring out the window. All the sudden Quill and Embry come riding up on a motorcycle with a big red bow that went with the bike.
"Happy Birthday Lila!" Jake said as I squealed.
I ran out the door and quickly hugged Quill and Embry. "Happy Birthday!!" They said together as I giggled.
I sat on the bike. "How do I look?" I was smiling from ear to ear.
"Like you were born to ride." Billy said.
"Thank you both so much!" I said. "I have been dreaming about this for months!"
My birthday could not get any better! Ella was here and I got motorcycle for my birthday, I am so blessed.
I sat in my room putting on make up.
"Lila." Jake whispered. "Birthday girl, you are all ready a wake?"
