<>All I Believe In by; The Magic Numbers
I PUSH MY READING GLASSES further up my nose as I work on a English assignment from my dad. My parents pulled me out of school after I had my accident and started homeschooling me. Anyways, I lay on my stomach while doing my homework when I got a text from Wally. I open up the text and it reads:
Wally Neptune
Meet us at Aquarium At The Bay at noon.
Odd. I quickly respond back.
Annie Grace
Why????
Wally Neptune
Just do it alright? lol
Annie Grace
Okay okay I'll be there lol
I turn my phone off and quickly get dressed. I take off my PJs and change into a spaghetti strap dress with white and tan stripes and put on a white woolen sweater. I put on some sandals and put my crossover body bag around me. I grab my phone and leave me room.
I walk up to the entrance of the aquarium and there's nobody here, I start to get confused and scared because I was the only person here that I know of. I glance at my phone a couple times to see if I had any messages but there's nothing. Finally, I build up enough courage to walk inside, when I do I see Julian, Wally, Winnie, Liam, and Trina standing there.
“SURPRISE!” They all shout. I laugh out of shock and run over to them, giving them each a huge hug. "What is all this?" I ask. "You always said you wondered what it would be like to be a fish. Well now's your chance." Wally mentions towards the fish dome ahead of us. Julian stands next to me, hugging me from my side.

Wally, Winnie, Liam, and Trina wandered off somewhere to give Julian and I ... and I quote, "alone time." Julian and I walk hand in hand looking at all the tropical fish, sharks, turtles and other marine life swimming around. I walk ahead of Julian to get a better look at the fish when I click and a light goes off. I turn around to see Julian holding a camera up to his face taking pictures of me.
“What are you doing Julian?” I ask, folding my arms across my chest.
“Can’t I take pictures of my beautiful girlfriend?” Julian asks, winking at me.
“Let me see them.” I ask, walking over to him and looking at the photos. Julian flips through them on the camera and then stops. “I like this one.” He says pointing to the last picture, it was me looking at the giant fish tank. “Me too.” I say, laughing quietly and Julian kisses the top of my head.
“That being said. I think we should find the others and head back.”
“Yeah we should.” I say, taking a hold of Julian’s hand and searching for the others.

Later that night, I lay in bed peacefully asleep when my door opened and Julian walked in, he turned to me and put his index finger up to his lips, gesturing for me to be quiet. I sit on my elbow watching him. “What are you doing here?” I whisper.
"We're getting a midnight snack, come on." Julian whispers back, motioning towards my door. I throw my duvet covers off my legs and walk towards Julian who is already at the door. He takes a hold of my hand and we walk down the hallway in our socked feet. We made our way to the cafeteria where Julian slid the door to the kitchen open revealing the large kitchen. “What exactly are we making for a midnight snack, Julian?” I ask. “Anything you want, Annie Grace.” He says, looking through the pantry and cabinets.
“Cookie dough.” I say, clapping my hands excitedly. Julian just laughs at my kiddish behaviour.
I walk over to the pantry and get the rest of the ingredients for our cookie dough. We mixed all the ingredients together and put it in the freezer, after we finished, we sat on top of the kitchen counter eating the cookie dough from the bowl with spoons. I put my spoon in the bowl after getting a sudden realization.
“What are you doing, Annie Grace?” Julian asks, the spoon still in his mouth.
“We need music.” I say and reach for Julian’s phone which was hanging out his pocket.
“Why?” He asks. “We can’t have a midnight snack without music now can we?” I ask, looking through his playlist, suddenly, I come across the perfect song and press play.
<>The Twist by; Chubby Checker
“Hey, I know this song.” Julian says, taking the spoon out his mouth and placing it on the counter. “Dance with me.” I say, holding my hands out. Julian hops off the counter and takes my hands and spins me around a couple times, we then start dancing like how people used to in the 60s.
Julian eventually lets go of my hands and gets his spoon using it as a microphone and lip syncs to The Twist. We continue to dance around the kitchen, careful not to make any noise, Julian stops lip syncing and takes my hand and spins me around till my body is pressed against his, where his lips gently and slowly connect with mine.
