Dropped and Well Concealed in Secret Places
CHAPTER 27
Sopheap stopped at Pete’s room.
“Over here” she said to Brianna. She knocked on the door.
“Hey” Sopheap said.
“Hi!”
“So yeah we’re gonna decorate the room” Brianna said. The rest of Fall Out Boy came outside.
“Hi!” Brianna waved to them.
“You wanna help?” Sopheap said.
“Sure” Fall out boy we down stairs with them.
“Wow his place is huge” Patrick said.
“I know” Pete said.
“Hey where’s Brendon?” Pete asked.
“Oh well he’s mad at me right now”
“What?”
“He’s mad because you called me in the morning and he thinks something’s going on” Sopheap used air quotes.
“Oh…”
They hung up the huge ‘Happy Birthday Brendon’ letters hanging in the center of the ceiling. There were tons of tables set out.
“So Pete how many people did you invite?” Brianna said. He showed her the list.
“Wow” It was tons of pages.
“Well this place is really big” There were disco balls hanging on each side of the ceiling. They put nets with balloons and confetti so when Brendon walked in the room it would come falling down. There were borders of lights in every different color
“Hey me and Patrick are gonna go food shopping for the drinks and stuff” Brianna said.
“Ok” Sopheap said.
They drove in Patrick’s car.
“I drive really slow so don’t mind me” Patrick said.
“It’s ok” It took forever to get to the grocery. They weren’t even half way.
“Ok Patrick can I drive now!?”
“Why?”
“CAUSE YOU DRIVE SO SLOW!”
“I warned you but be really careful”
“Yeah I’ll be really careful don’t worry” She drove as fast as she could.
“Hey slow down!”
“It’s right there!” She swerved in to parking lot.
“I almost died there” Patrick said.
“No you didn’t”
“I’m just paranoid about those things”
“Got cha” She put thumbs up.
“Hey where’s Brianna?” Ryan said to Brendon.
“I don’t know”
“What’s wrong now?”
“Sopheap and Pete again”
“What?”
“Yep he called her in the morning than lied about it”
“I’m sorry to hear about it”
“I’m gonna call Bri”
“ok” Ryan dialed Brianna’s number.
“Hello?”
“Hey babe where are you?”
“Oh I’m with Patrick”
“WHAT!”
“Grocery shopping don’t worry it’s for the party”
“Oh ok so yeah Sopheap and Pete again?”
“No not Sopheap and Pete again. Pete called her to go downstairs early in the morning. Then they went to get Brendon’s cake and Brendon assumed they were going out or something”
“Oh I’ll go tell him then”
“NO! It’s better cause we don’t have to make any excuses”
“Oh yeah”
“So just hang out with him today and yeah...”
“Ok bye!”
“Bye!” Brianna and Patrick bought soda, chips, and all other kinds of snacks.
“I am so tired” Sopheap said.
“It looked great though”
“Yeah he better like it, you think they’ll be paparazzi?”
“Most definitely will be”
“Grr… I hope they don’t make up any rumors or anything.”
“Yeah paparazzi sucks ass!” Sopheap was laughing.
“Don’t worry I got security guards”
“Really?” Sopheap said.
“Yep so paparazzi won’t be able to take pictures of anything”
“Cool” They were finally done. There was a knock on the door. Sopheap opened it.
“Hey Ryan” Sopheap said.
“Hey”
“So where’s Brendon?”
“He’s been in his room all day”
“Awh I feel so bad should I go up?”
“No you need to help!”
“Fine but I really do feel bad.”
“He’ll get over it Sopheap” Ryan started singing ‘Get Over It’ by ok go.
“Oh Ryan”
“So where’s Bri?”
“She’s still food shopping, it taking her for EVER!”
“Well you know Brianna!” Ryan and Sopheap started laughing.
“I think we’re done!” Brianna said.
“Finally” Patrick said.
“Hey I could have taken much longer”
“Yeah I bet you could of” The trunk was full of food.
“Ok I’m driving” Patrick said.
“No I am!” Brianna raced him to the driver’s seat. Brianna won.
“HA! HA!” She stuck her tongue out and got into the seat.
“Yeah but you BETTER not drive fast”
“Then you better not complain!”
“Deal” Brianna and Patrick needed help bringing the food in, so Peter and Andy came to help.
“God Brianna you bought so much!” Andy said.
“BRIANNA!” Ryan ran up to her and gave her a hug.
“I missed you” Brianna said. He gave her a kiss.
“There’s more food you two!” Peter said.
“I’m coming” Ryan said.
“The place looks great Sopheap” Brianna said.
“Thanks, I am so tired”
“You look tired”
“Thanks Bri! I’m gonna go up stairs and take a shower.”
“Ok” Brianna went to the car to help more. Her arms felt like they were gonna break!
