18 and I Love You

Maggie

After Nolan’s drunken escapade, I didn’t get to talk to Nash. Nate and Pat had confined us to our rooms for a week. Nolan got a lecture, along with a two-week grounding for his stunt. He’s lucky.

We endured solitary confinement in our rooms. Pat and Nate planned my eighteenth birthday. I had to hand it to them with them liking their cake. Any reason to have cake, they did. They threw me a birthday party.

I pondered what Kat said. Was Nash in love with me? Is it possible?

The party was in full swing, and everyone had a splendid time. I like my freedom. It sucks to get stuck in a room on purpose. Nothing says I care about you like getting grounded.

We enjoyed the party. The best part was the gifts. The boys chipped in and gave me a new phone, my friends gave me jewelry, and Nate and Pat gave me clothes. They’re typical Mom and Dad gifts. Then came Nash’s contribution.
