Chapter Twelve: A surprise long awaited to I am here to crash your party: Part Two It all goes dark as Tracy wraps some fabric around my eyes to ensure I do not see where we are headed. She ties it way too hard and way too tight and I begin to think it is on purpose. "Ow! That is too tight Tracy!" I complain. "I was thinking the exact same thing. We are trying to blind her temporarily not give her a raging headache from that thing!" Amelia agrees with me too and that is how I know that I am definitely not crazy for thinking that she was being too harsh with the fastening. "Fine! But if it drops down to her chin and she sees everything before she is supposed to see anything, you know who to blame, right?" I want to tell her to stop making threats and just loosen the fabric but I decide to stop when she gets to it. The car keeps moving and in the dead silence in the car, I feel like I can hear almost every sound that the car is making as it moves. My other senses are so vigilant right now and that would be especially my hearing. I already know that everyone apart from Jax is texting on their phone or just doing the apparently necessary part of the day where they just continuously stab fingers into the phone even when there is nothing to see or nothing productive to do. I am alone with my thoughts and it occurs to me that I ha e not made myself any birthday resolutions. I am honestly more committed to making birthday resolutions than I am to making new year's resolutions, I will probably be the same way for the future too. I guess growing older is a more visible milestone than just a year changing. I always panic when I realize that I am gettint old and I have so many goals to achieve and I am in control of them. Thinking back to my birthday resolutions last year, I want to gag... No.. I actually want to laugh because they were all full of.. Him... I wish I could say his name without wanting to throw up but it does not seem that possible lately, it has not been possible since the breakup really. They were all centered around him because I was stupid enough to think that he is the one even though he was treating me like s**t! And I was holding onto him. What could my resolutions be this time around? I will be done with high school, and I seriously need a break before I start college. Could that finally be time to open my heart up to a boy? Yeah... I need to get out of this blindfold already! "how long is it going to take to get there? This thing is making it really hard to breathe." I complain and I hear laughter nearby. Amelia is sure cracked up but that is because she is not the one in this situation. "Come on. It is not even near your nostrils! We are almost there you little baby!" She answers after laughing and I exhale loudly. I hope she is telling the truth! I am glad that we begin to talk a lot after my question because that way, I do not have to force myself to decide on my goals for my year as an eighteen year old because I feel I am bit ready enough! "where are we actually going, Jax? You are taking us to the middle of nowhere mountain to kidnap us?" I joke as soon as I feel my ears getting blocked. I can tell that the car keeps moving up and the girls already sound excited. . "trust me, you are going to love being here, it is so you and... What the f**k?!" her tone suddenly changes when she says the last part. She sounds offended. "What? What the heck?" Amelia jons her and I can only wish to take the blindfold off so I finally know what it is that has them so shocked and most importantly offended! "What's the problem? I hate being in the dark like this!" I complain and they urge me to keep it on until they tell me to remove it! I pick up some music and I know it is not coming from inside the car. Is that what they could be all mad about? I am even more confused about what they have planned now. It would not be right to my liking if it was some night club on top of the hill. Unless Jax was being sarcastic with me and it was all a joke, that would not be unlike her at all. I actually never know what to expect with her! "They think they own this city. Don't they?" Amber sounds like she is boiling and she is the shy type, if she is extremely angry then that just means that the situation is pretty bad! I am beginning to get worried now! "Okay, I do not think it is worth going any further now, she is going to totally hate it! We might as well show her now so she decides what she wants to do..." Amelia suggestd and I just want to ask them what they ate talking about but I basically won't. "I think it is for the bext that we do that..." Tracy agrees and I know that they are about to remove the blindfold soon. The music definitely is getting louder and it is accompanied by a lot of other sounds too. Human sounds. I feel hands fumbling behind my head and I brace mysoef for this. Ultate birthday surprise that is apparently going to make my night! "it is ruined but just have a look anyway. We did try but I guess the Ridgefields think they own this city. Ridgefield? The blindfold comes undone and my eyes immediately follow their fingers to see the meandering road that leads to the top of the plateau that we have in the city where you get the view.
