Chapter X [Sweet Birthday Party]
The Player Is A Girl?!
---------------------------------------
{Hebe's POV}
“Hebe dear, this was such a great idea.” My Grandma said. “I would have never thought about doing a mask theme for the party.”
“Thanks grandma.” I said.
“How did you come up with this idea?” She asked.
“Well...” I said.
[Flash Back]
[Day Before Party]
(A/N: the party's on a Saturday. Yeah. ^_^)
“Hebe are you ok?” Sel asked. I just sighed. I was trying to think of a way for Aaron to come to my party without Sel or Ella or Chun, Jiro and Calvin finding out. I mean I know I have to tell my mom soon, so why not at the party? Hmm...I could...no grandma would get mad...how the hell am I going to do this? “Heeeeebeeeee?”
“Huh?” I said snapping out of my thoughts.
“Eat your lunch.” Ella said as she pointed to my untouched lunch.
“I'm not hungry.” I said as I pushed my tray away.
“Hebe you have to eat.” Sel said.
“Mother, I said I wasn't hungry!” I said as I rolled my eyes at her.
“Funny.” Sel said as she pushed the tray back towards me.
“Hey, what do you guy's think about a mask theme for my birthday party?” I asked as a way to change the topic.
“That would be cool.” Jiro and Chun said.
“I think it would be nice.” Sel said.
“but why a mask party?” Ella asked.
“I wanna do something different this year.” I said. And that way Aaron can come and no one well see him. Hehehe. “It's boring doing the same thing over again.”
“That's so true.” Calvin said.
“So, Hebe is Ah Bu going to be there?” Sel asked.
“I don't think so...” I said. Of course he's going to be there! But you won't know that! HAHAHA!
“Hebs you said you let us meet him/her at you're party!” Ella said.
“I know. I know. But something came up, so Ah Bu can't make it. Maybe next time.” I said as I got up to throw my food out.
[End of Flash Back]
“Um by the way grandma...way are there so many people?” I asked. “I thought it was only going to be friends and family?”
“Well you're going to inherit everything, so you need to get to know the people who help your father along the way.” She said.
“But that's a lot of people?” I said as I looked at the thousands of people here tonight.
“Oh don't worry dear you don't have to get to know all of them, just a few.” Grandma said.
“*Sigh* Good!” I said.
“Why don't you go have fun with your friend.” She said.
“Are you sure?” I asked.
“Yes. Now go.” She said as she gently pushed me towards the crowd.
“Hey guys!” I said when I reach them.
“Hey.” They said.
“Hebe I love that white dress.” Sel said.
“Thanks, my grandma made it for me.”
“Aw. That's so sweet.” Sel said. “Did she make the white mask too?”
“No my mom did.” I said. “It's their birthday gift to me.”
“That's sweet of them.” Sel said.
“So Bebe did any guys hit on you?” Chun asked.
“Why? Are you trying to?” I asked.
“Ew! No! I just want to make sure they don't. I already warn most of them.”
“Chun!” Ella said as she slapped his shoulder.
“What?”
“Who's really going to do the flirting here? Them or Hebs?” Ella asked.
“Well it's not going to be me tonight.” I said with a grin.
“Really?” Sel asked. I just shrugged my shoulders. “Hebe!”
“Don't know. Depends if it's with the right person...” I said.
“Would that person be me?” A guy asked. I turned around and saw a guy about Aaron's height. He had a black suit on and was wearing a black mask to match. He looked just like Aaron but his eyes were blue.
“I don't think so.” I said as I faced my friends again.
“Are you sure about that my little princess?” He whispered in my ear.
“A—“ I said.
“Maybe.” He said.
“Hey back off.” Chun said as he pushed the guy away.
“Chun clam down.” I said. “Don't make a scene.”
“Fine.” Chun said as went back to Ella's side.
“And what do you mean 'maybe?'” I asked as looked at the guy carefully.
“Dance with me and I'll tell you.” He said.
“I don't even know you.”
“Well, in a way you do.”
“What?” I said. “How?”
“*Smile* You know who I am.” He said. “Just forget my eyes.”
“Forget your eyes?” I questioned.
“Dance with me. It would be our first dance together.” He said as he extended his hand towards me. I hesitated at first, but after a while, I took his hand and he lead me to the dance floor.
“Do you remember now?” He asked. (A/N: remember guys, there dancing. ^_^)
“No.” I said.
“Aw. You're so mean!” He said.
“How am I being mean? I telling you the truth!” I said.
“The truth hurts, Hebe.”
“You know my name?”
“Yes, I do. How could I forget such an important name? Especially when that person is the person that holds the key to my heart.”
“Um...well may I know your name?” I asked confused. As smart as I was, this guy is weird. I don't even know him, so how could I have the key to his heart?
“You can just call me your prince charming!”
“No.” I said. “Just tell me.”
“You're no fun. Just guess. It's more fun that way.”
“Would you just tell me your name.”
“You look even more cute when you get mad.”
“I had enough of this.” I said as I stop us from dancing anymore. I walk back towards my friends but I was stopped. He had his arm around my waist.
“Would a kiss help you remember?” He whispered in my ear.
“What?” I said as I turned around but only found him gone.
“Who was that?” Sel asked as I reached her.
“Was that Ah Bu?” Ella asked.
“No.”
“Then why you dance with him?” They asked.
“I don't know.” I said as I shook my head.
“Excuse me everyone!” Someone shouted from the stage, where the band was. It was him! The guy I was dancing with.
“Hebe isn't that...” Sel said.
“No! What is he doing?” I said.
“Looks like he's going to sing.” Ella said.
“Hi everyone! Um I would like to dedicate this song I wrote to the birthday girl.” He said. “I wrote this this just for you, Hebe. I hope you like it.” He asked for the mic head set and put it on and gave the rest of the band the music sheet to the song. He then turned to the front and the song began.
(A/N: Here's a link if you guys want to hear the song
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7t_yEFF1IEM
I highly suggest you listen to it while you read. There's a five second delay, before the song starts.)
Hey Juliet
(Hey Juliet)
[He walks off stage and walks towards Hebe]
Hey I've been watching you
[Hebe tried to walk away from him]
Every little thing you do
Every time I see you dance
In my homeroom class, makes my heart beat fast
[He grabs her hand and bring her to the center of the room]
I've tried to page you twice
But I see you roll your eyes
Wish I could make it real
But your lips are sealed, that ain't no big deal
'Cause I know you really want me, yeah
I hear your friends talk about me, yeah
[Hebe pulls her hand away from him and tries to walk back to her friends]
So why you tryin'to do without me, yeahhhh
[He goes in front of her to stop her]
When you got me
Where you want me
(Hey Juliet)
I think you're fine
You really blow my mind
[He takes her hand again and puts it to his heart]
Maybe someday (someday), you and me can run away
I just want you to know
I wanna be your Romeo
[Hebe takes her hand away and walks towards the stage]
Hey Juliet
(Hey Juliet)
(Hey Juliet)
[He follows her and spins in front of her as he fell to his knees]
Girl you got me on my knees
Beggin' please, baby please
Got my best DJ on the radio waves saying
'Hey Juliet, why do you do him this way?'
[Hebe turns around a walk the other way]
Too far to turn around (turn around)
[He quickly gets up and grabs her arm and spins her into a hug]
So I'm gonna stand my ground (stand my ground)
Gimme just a little bit of hope
With a smile or a glance, gimme one more chance
[Hebe pushes him away and tried to walk away]
'Cause I know you really want me, yeah
I hear your friends talk about me, yeah
[He goes and block her way]
So why you tryin' to do without me, yeahhhh
When you got me
Where you want me
[Hebe keeps trying to walk away]
Hey Juliet
[He follows her and walk around her]
I think you're fine
You really blow my mind
[Hebe stops and stands there. 'Unbelievable.' Hebe thought]
Maybe (maybe) someday (someday), you and me can run away
[He continues to walk around her, so she doesn't go any where]
I just want you to know
I wanna be your Romeo
Hey Juliet
(Hey, hey Juliet)
(Hey Juliet)
I know you really want me
I hear your friends talk about me
[Unable to move now Hebe just stays there shaking her head.
'I can't believe this is happening to me. Why me?' Hebe thought.]
So why you tryin' to do without me
When you got me
Where you want me
You don't have to say forever
For us to hang together
So hear (hear) me (me) when (when) I (I) say (say)
Hey, Hey, Hey Julieeet
[Grabs her hands and place them to his heart again]
(Hey Juliet)
Hey Juliet
['Why is his heart beating so fast?' Hebe thought]

You really blow my mind (blow my mind)
Maybe (maybe) someday (someday), you and me can run away (run away)
I just want you to know

['No. It can't be? Can it?' Hebe thought]
Hey Juliet
Hey, hey, Julieeet

Hey Juliet
[He places his forehead against Hebe's and looks deep into her eyes]
I think (I think) you're fine (you're fine)
You really blow my mind (blow my mind)

Hey Juliet
(Hey, hey, Julieeet)
Hey Juliet
(Hey, hey, Julieeet)
Hey Juliet
(Hey, hey, Julieeet)
Hey Juliet
The song end and he placed his lips on mine. I respond back. He broke the kiss and in his hand, a white rose appeared.
“One white rose is fine. Right? Juliet?” He asked as he handed me the rose.
“One rose is plenty, Romeo.” I said smiling as I took the rose.
“Remember me now?” He asked with a grin.
“I don't think so.” I said innocently. “I think another kiss will help.”
“I think that's a GREAT idea.” He said as he lean in to kiss me again, but out of no where Chun came and pushed him away.
“Back off dude!” Chun said as he hide me behind him. “I think you need to meet my fist!”
“Chun what are you doing?” I asked.
“*Chuckle* Juliet, until we meet again.” He said as he throw a gas ball to the ground and disappeared into thin air.
“Look what you did, Chun!” I said as I smacked his arm.
“Ow! What?” Chun asked as he rubbed his arm.
“Ugh!” I said as I walked back to Ella and Sel.
“Hebe, I thought you said you didn't know him.” Sel said with her arms crossed.
“Um...well I thought I didn't.” I said as I looked a the rose I got.
“Someones happy to get a rose?” Jiro said as he came back with two cups in his hands.
“VERY!” Ella said.
“No, I'm not.” I said as I hide the rose behind me.
“So did you enjoy Ah Bu's song?” Calvin asked as he came out of nowhere.
“Whoa! Where did you come from?” I asked.
“THAT WAS AH BU!?” Sel and Ella asked.
“Maybe...” I said as I bit my lip.
“It was!” Ella said.
“Oh my gosh!” Selina said. “His voice was so sweet!”
“........” I didn't know what to say.
“Hebe!” I heard my mom call.
“Oh I have to go for a bit.” I said.
“Fine, but when you come back you have to tell us about Ah Bu.” Selina said.
“Fine.” I said as I walked towards my mom.
=============================
“Hebe dear, I want you to met some friends of mine.” My mom said when I reached her.
“Hello.” I said.
“Oh my! You've grown so big.” My mom's friend said. “Oh By the way, I'm Mrs. Yan.”
“Yan? As in Aaron Yan's mother?” I asked shocked.
“Yes. You know my son?” She asked.
“Yeah, we know each other.” A voice said. I turned around and found Aaron right behind me. He was waring a white suit and a white mask, that matched my white dress and mask.
“Oh Aaron dear, you finally made it.” Mrs. Yan said.
“I'm sorry, I'm late.” Aaron said.
“In the business world, you shouldn't be.” Mr. Yan said.
“I know. Maybe one day I'll grow out of it, dad.” Aaron said. Ok...awkward.
“You should.” Mr. Yan said.
“Oh forget about business.” Mrs. Yan said. “Aaron why don't you go dance with Hebe.”
“Sure.” Aaron said. “Would you like to dance birthday girl?”
“Uh sure.” I said as I took his hand.
“But first...” Aaron said as he took my rose. “I think you should leave this.”
“Why?” I asked. Your the one who gave it to me? I thought.
“I think blue suits you better.” Aaron said as he magically turn the white rose into blue rose. “Here you go.”
“*Smile* Thank you.” I said as I took it.
“Here. I'll put it in your hair.” He said as he took the rose back and placed it in my hair. “And just to match you. I'll ware one too.” He magically made a blue rose appear in the pocket off his suit.
“Oh Aaron stop trying to charm the girl and just go dance.” Mrs. Yan said as she pushed Aaron closer to me. Which made me blush.
“Ok, ok. We're in no rush here.” Aaron said as he lead me to the dance floor. He placed one of his hand around my waist and the other intertwined with one of my hands. I placed my free hand on his shoulder and we began to dance. “So...who's Romeo?”
“Why do you want to know?” I asked. “Are you jealous?”
{Aaron's POV}
“Now, why would I be jealous of myself?” I asked as I pulled her closer.
“I know it was you.” Hebe said. “Let me guess, blue contacts?”
“You got it!” I said.
“Why?”
“Well it just makes things more fun that way.”
“Whatever. But I have to say that was a great song.”
“You liked it?”
“Liked it? I loved it.”
“Hey do you want to ditch the party later?” I whispered in her ear.
“When?” She whispered back.
“How about now?”
“Are you dumb?”
“No, I'm a genius.” I said. “I'm just dumb when I'm around you.”
“Aw. You sweet talker.”
“Hey, I learn a few thing here and there.” I said. “So when do you want to?”
“Hm...met me outside in the garden in an hour.”
“Ok. Will do.” I said as I dipped her.
“Whoa!” She said as I brought her back up.
“You knew it was coming.” I said.
“Whatever.”
“If our parents weren't watching. I would have kissed you by now.”
“Well too bad.” She said as she stuck her tongue out at me.
“Don't temp me.” I said as we both walked back to our parents.
“You two seem happy?” My mom said as we reached her.
“Do we?” Hebe and I said as we looked at each other. We both laughed.
“Oh Ah Bu, I haven't seen you laugh this much in a while.” I heard Rainie say as she walked over.
“This is Ah bu?” Mrs. Tian asked as she pointed to me.
“Um...yes...” Hebe said as she looked down. Aw, she's so cute, but Rainie! I want to kill her right now.
“Rainie!! I told you not to say anything!” I said as I shot her a glare.
“Aw! Is Ah Bu embarrass?” Rainie asked as I started to turn red. Hebe then turn her eyes to me.
“Aw! You are!” Hebe said as she pinched my cheeks. “Look at you turning all red.”
“Stop it!” I whined as pulled her hands away from my cheeks.
“Too cute.” Hebe said with a smile.
“You're cuter.” I said as I pinched her nose.
“*Cough* We're still here.” Rainie said.
“Oh.” Hebe and I said as we scooted away from each other.
“Oh this is just great!” My mom said.
“It is.” Mrs. Tian said.
“I guess we'll be in-laws.” My dad said.
“Why would you think that?” Hebe asked.
“Well...why don't you tell her, son.” He said with a smirk on his face. I hate him!
“Why must you do that?” I asked.
“Do what?” My dad asked.
“If Jer...” I said. “Forget it.”
“Aaron, what is he talking about?” Hebe asked as she looked at me.
“Nothing, Mr. Yan likes to say random things.” Rainie said. “He just wants a grandchild already.”
“Oh.” Hebe said as she looked down. Thank you Rainie.
“Well I have to get going.” I said.
“Where are you going?” Hebe asked. “You just got here.”
“Don't worry I'll be back.” I said.
“Wait, are you going to—“ Rainie said.
“Yes.” I said knowing what she was going to say.
“Can I—“
“Yes.” I said. “Let's go.”
“Aaron...” Hebe said as she grabbed my arm.
“Hebe, Rainie is like the devil, nothing well happen and plus you're the only angel in my eyes.” I whispered in her ear. She laughed.
“That's not nice to say.” Hebe whispered back.
“You don't like her either.” I whispered back at her.
“Just go, but be back in an hour.” Hebe whispered.
“I will.” I whispered.
‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰
[Grave Yard]
(A/N: You guys probable don't remember, but in chapter six, Hebe was about to asked Aaron:
[“Hey, Aaron who's...” I said, but found that Aaron was sounded asleep on the sofa. He looks so cute when his asleep. I walk up to him and sat on the floor next to the sofa.] this part was where I was going to show Aaron's brother,but I change it.)
“Hey Jerry.” I said as I place some flowers on my brother's grave.
“Hi Jerry.” Rainie said.
“Man, I wish you where still here.” I said as I felt the tears come down. “I can't believe it's been 7 years, now.”
“Aaron it's ok.” Rainie said as she rubbed my back.
“No it's not!” I snapped at her.
“Aaron, it's not your fault!” She yelled. “We didn't know it was going to happen!”
“YES IT IS!” I shouted.
“Aaron. Jerry only wanted you to fulfill you're dream.” Rainie yelled.
“WHY!? WHY DIDN'T HE JUST LET THE CAR HIT ME!? WHY DID HE ALWAYS HAVE TO BE A HERO!?” I shouted out of anger.
“I would have done the same for Gui.” Rainie said calmly as she started to cry. “Twins are like that you know, they look out for one another.”
“Well I just had a very stupid twin who never looked after himself.” I said as I calm down a bit.
“Are you sure he was the stupid twin?” Rainie asked as she giggled a bit.
“Fine, we were both stupid.” I said remembering all the good memories of Jerry and me. “Let's head back.”
“Are you sure you don't want to stay a bit longer?” Rainie asked.
“No, it's fine. Let's go.” I said.
‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰
[Party]
{Hebe's POV}
“I'm bored.” I said.
“How can you be bored?” Ella asked. “I mean this is your party, go wild!”
“I can't just go wild in front of everyone here.” I said. “Especially in front of my Grandma.”
“Can I have everyone's attention!” I heard my mom say from the stage. “It's time to sing Happy Birthday to the birthday girl. And this young man next to me will start us off.”
“Hello everyone.” He said.
“Aaron?” I whispered to myself.
“Did you say some thing?” Ella asked.
“Uh no.” I said.
“You sure?” Ella asked.
“I'm s—“ I said.
“Hey Birthday girl! Get over here!” Aaron shouted into the mic.
“What?” I said.
“Hebe go.” Ella said as she pushed me.
“But...”
“Do you want me to drug you over here?” I heard Aaron shout. What?
“You won't dare!” I shouted which made everyone's eyes turn to me. “Hehe.” I said as I walk to the stage, now embarrassed. “I hate you.” I whispered to Aaron.
“You know you love me.” He whispered as he covered the mic with his hand.
“I never said I love you to you so how would you know if I do or not?” I hissed.
“Aw you just said I love you to me.” He said.
“I did not say I love you, Aaron Yan!” I said as I realize Aaron uncovered the mic just as I said 'I love you Aaron Yan'. I could see everyone was shocked.
“I love you too, Hebe Tian.” Aaron said grinning. He then kissed me on the cheek. I was blushing like mad. “Happy Birthday~ To You~ Happy Birthday~ To You~ Happy Birth~day~ Dear Hebe~ Happy Birth~day~ To You~. Happy 18th Birthday Hebe!”
“I so hate how I can't hate you.” I said as I hugged him.
“I could say the same about you.” He said as he hugged me back.
====================================
“So this is the famous Ah Bu?” Selina asked as we reached her.
“Famous?” Aaron said as he looked at me. “And Who's Ah Bu?”
“Don't listen to her.” I said. “And Selina, Shh!”
“Wait! If he's not Ah Bu, then who was that guy?” Ella asked.
“Y-y-you CHEATED on 'ME'?!” Aaron said as he pretended to be shocked. I just rolled my eyes at him.
“I'm so confused.” Chun said.
“Me too.” Jiro said.
“I'm not.” Calvin said. “I mean how—“
“Can she be cheating on him with him?” Rainie and Gui said as they walked over.
“What?” Sel, Ella, Chun and Jiro said as Calvin, Rainie, Gui, Aaron and I laughed.
“I was just messing with you.” Aaron said.
“Wait, so your the dude that...so you were the one that...I'm sorry I pushed you.” Chun said.
“It's ok.” Aaron said.
“No it's not!” I said.
“Does someone need another kiss?” Aaron asked as leaned closer to me.
“If you can catch me!” I said as I ran to the garden.
“Hey!” I heard Aaron say as he chased after me.
‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰‰
[Garden]
“Gotcha!” Aaron said as put his arms around my waist.
“Ah! No! Let go!” I screamed.
“Never! I'll never let you go!” He said. “I want you to always be by my side.”
“What if I don't want to be by your side?” I asked as I turned my head to face him.
“Oh I know you want to.” He said as he quickly peaked my lips.
“Whatever.” I said as I felt myself blush.
“You know the symbol of love is a red rose.” Aaron said as reveled a red rose in front of me.
“How many roses are you going to give me?” I asked as I took the rose.
“As many as I can, 'till the day I die.” Aaron answered. “Hebe, one day I'm going to make you my wife.”
“Who say's I want to be your wife?” I asked.
“You did. Just now.” He said.
“No, I didn't.” I said.
“Hebe, I love you.” Aaron said as he turned me to face him.
“*Smile* Well I don't love you.” I said.
“Owch! That hurt.” Aaron said. “I guess, I have to go off and marry Rainie then.”
“NO!” I said as I grabbed his arm.
“So you do love me?” Aaron said with his one of eyebrow up.
“Oh shut up.” I said as I playfully hit him. He just laughs at me.
“You're too cute Hebe.” Aaron said as he pulled me in for a hug.
“I love you, Aaron.” I mumble into his chest.
“What was that?” Aaron asked as he broke the hug. “You...love me?”
“Hm...do I?” I questioned as I try to run away.
“HEY!” Aaron shouted as pulled me into another hug.
“Let go.” I whined.
“I don't want to.” Aaron said.
“Aaron dear, could you come here for a minute?” I hear Mrs. Yan ask. We looked over to the doorway of the garden.
“Ok. Now I have to let go.” Aaron said as I giggled.
“You should go.” I said.
“But I don't want to.” Aaron whined.
“Ya Lun!” Mrs. Yan yelled.
“Uh-oh.” Aaron said.
“Ah Bu you should go before...” I said but it was too late.
“Aaron Yan Ya Lun!” Mrs. Yan shouted as she reached us.
“Hi mom.” Aaron said not even looking at her.
“Oh your with Hebe.” She said. “I'm sorry. I'll leave you two alone.” We both watched as Mrs. Yan went back into the house. We looked at each other and laughed.
“That was weird.” I said.
“Yea, it was.” Aaron said. “Hey what are you doing tomorrow?”
“Hm...I think, I'm gonna hang out with you the whole day!” I said as I hug him tighter.
“Now, why didn't I know about this?” He asked.
“Hmm...I don't know.” I said innocently. “Maybe your just too slow.”
“Maybe.” Aaron said as he lean in a kissed me.
