"Wake up! Wake up! Wake up! It's your birthday!" Austin jumped on top of me and said in a sing-song voice.



I swatted him away. I would have pushed him, but I didn't have the energy to at the moment, "Five more minutes."



"No. Get up now," He said calmly, "I will get a bucket of water and pour it on you if you don't get up."



"Fine, I'm up," I rubbed my eyes, "Why is it so important that I'm up this early anyway?"



"Because we are throwing you a party!" He said excitedly, "We'll arrive at the venue around noon, so be ready around that time!"



I turned on my phone to check the time and noticed I had three messages. The first was from my friend Sarah: "Happy birthday girlie :) have a good one!"



The next was from Tay: "How does it feel to be 20?! Happy birthday! :)"



The last was from Jack. I smiled as I read the corny, but sweet message: "happy birthday beautiful <3 I hope your day is as amazing as you are :)"



I thanked each of them and got ready for the day.



We arrived about at The Fillmore about an hour later. Woo time for the party. And with a birthday party comes cake.
---
The party was fun. We didn't have very long because we had to get ready for the show. We pretty much just ate cake (chocolate cake. Yum!) and everyone gave me presents. So sweet of them. I got a shirt from Forever 21 from Austin, some new books from Brian, let's just say some kinky items from Jon for "When Jack and I start having sex". His words not mine. That was pretty embarrassing for both me and Jack. Okay moving on. Tay got me a cute shirt from GK, the WATIC guys got me gift cards. Alex, Zack, and Rian got alcohol. Typical. Jack told me I would get my present tonight. Whatever that means.

The show went great. The guys got the fans to sing me happy birthday and it was just really nice ah.



I'm currently side stage watching We are the in Crowd. Tay wanted me to watch them since I never had before. She and Alex were singing Kiss Me Again.



It's been awhile since I've felt butterflies
Do you feel the same way too?
If every single second could last that much longer
Would you hold me?



That part of the song reminds me of Jack. I mean he gives me butterflies. Does he feel the same way? Who knows? I can't really say much about the chorus. We've came really close to kissing a couple of times since the one time in Atlanta, but we were cockblocked both times. First by Cameron and then by Jon. We should just rename this tour "Cockblockers and Friends".



I felt arms snake around my waist and a sweet voice sing in my ear. I smiled and blushed as I recognize the voice. Jack.



I gotta say I wasn't expecting you
To come this way and fall into my arms
And now I know I can't deny this feeling any longer.



I rested my hands on his and he started swaying us to the beat. He continued singing in my ear.



I close my eyes, I can't stop thinking about you
Crack a smile, I just can't lose
At a mile a minute my heart beats to the limit when I'm with you



"Can I kiss you?" Jack said nervously into my ear.



I turned around to face him and nodded with a smile on my face.



He smiled and starting leaning in. I felt his lips on mine a second later and immediately started kissing back. It was amazing. Glorious. Perfect. I never want it to end.



We pulled away a few seconds later and just stared into each others eyes. He spoke up a minute later, "Lauren I really like you. I have since the first time we met at the airport, and I know how cliche that sounds, but.."



I cut him off with my lips and pulled away smiling, "Jack I like you too."



He smiled hugely, "Will you be my girlfriend?"



"Of course I will," I answered.



He was about to kiss me again, but was cut off by a smirking Flyzik, "I hate to break up the love fest, but you go on in two minutes Jack."



"Damn it," He pouted, "I thought we were done with the cockblocking?"
