First of all, I don't really receive a lot of invitations or mail. It was so cool because when ever the mail comes there is never anything for me. The reason why I don't really get any mail is because no one sends me anything.
 * Exposition/Inciting Incident **

"Alexandra, you have mail," said Mom.

"Coming", I replied back.

The invitation was pink and shiny. When I opened it, it looked liked it was going to be so much fun. When I picked up the pink and shiny envelope, it felt fluffy and had sparkles on it that stuck to my fingers. They are my mom's friend Linda's daughters that are named Sofia and Daniella. They are twins. Daniella has brown hair and blue eyes. Daniella has short hair and Sofia's hair is a little bit longer than Daniella's. Since they are twins, they both will turn twelve together. Since I was one of their close friends they sent me an invitation.

”Mom! I'm so excited that I got an invitation to your friend Linda's daughter's party!" I screamed excitedly.

"Oh cool you did. I'm so happy for you, what time does the party start?” Mom said.

"It starts at 6:30, can I go?” I asked.

"Yea sure, but can you ask Daniella and Sofia if you can go there a little earlier because I have to do something around 6:30-7.", said ,Mom.

"Yea sure, hold on let me call them." I said.

"Hello", Daniella said.

"Hi Daniella, I just wanted to tell you that I can come to your party and that if it's ok if you can take me to the pizza place because my mom is busy between 6:30-7 and so I can drop my sleeping bag and stuff their so no one sees it?" I asked, hoping she would say that's fine.

"Yea sure I’ll tell my mom." she replied back.

"Ok thank you" I answered back.

"Your welcome, bye." she said in happy way because I was going to be at her party.

"Bye", I said back.

"Mom I said screaming from the top of my lungs".

"Yea?" she replied back.

"Daniella said that it was fine if I went their before." I said.

"Ok, did you say thank you?" Mom said hoping I did.

"Yea I said thank you." I answered.

"Ok, can you just tell them that I will pick you up the next day.” mom said.

"Yea, sure", I replied.

"Thanks Mom, so much for letting me go to Daniella and Sofia's party.” as I screamed with joy as I was running down the creaky steps.

"Your welcome", Mom said.

I had only one week to get ready for the big birthday bash. My mom was excited for me, but a little curious that nothing came in the mail for her that day except those boring old bills. She just thought it was weird because nothing really comes for me and she’s usually the one with the mail. What was I going to wear, and what I am going to get them? I thought to myself. It might not matter to other people to what they wear to a party, but it does for me. It matters because I wanted to look nice and one of my friends and I both planned on wearing matching or almost matching outfits. Their party was going to be a pizza party at the most popular restaurant. The pizza place was called "PIZZA 4 U!!!!". It was so cool because it had a television room, a game room, a party room which we were in, a computer room, and an eating area. It also had spinning chairs and tables. It also had pictures of pizza everywhere and it said the ingredients on how to make your own pizza on the tables. I thought the pizza place was so cool. The television room had all TV’s all around the room. The game room had all board games and video games in it. The party room had all party items all over the wall. It also had balloons that were sparkly and glowed up in the dark. The computer room had fourteen (14) computers in it. Some of us had to share computers. The computers were shaped like pizzas. The eating area is where you would eat. The rules were you were not aloud to eat anywhere else, but the eating area. I got them a separate gift card to Abercrombie and a shirt. I wore the same shirt I got them because when I bought them their gift card and shirt I bought myself the same shirt. I also wore jeans with my new shirt. The shirts were pink and purple. My mom helped me wrap their gifts. I was so excited that they invited me to sleep over after the party. When I had asked them who else was going to be sleeping over they said it was just me. They told me not to tell anyone because I was the only one who was invited. Since I wasn't able to tell anyone I dropped my bags off before I went to the pizza place, my mom dropped me off at Daniella and Sofia's house before the party started. The car ride with my mom was so fun because I was so excited to go to their party. Daniella and Sofia's mother drove me their.

As we were waiting for our pizza, the waitresses said, "Hey everyone look what we bought out for you."

The girls screamed "Thank you".

We were as loud as a baby crying.

It was pizza dough pizza but, when one girl named Sally, asked question and the waitress answered, "No, we just bought it out here for you guys to play with. Sally's question was,” Are we going to be making our own pizza???".

We all groaned. The waitress had told us why after Daniella asked. He said because they didn't want to make a mess because there was another party that was going to be here after we left. The waitress was a boy. He had brown eyes and brown hair. His hair was short. Some of the girls thought we were going to be making our own pizzas. We wanted to make our own pizza but, we also had fun playing with it. I sat next to Daniella and Sofia. They both really wanted me to sit next to them. We were so hungry after a while. We were all so hungry that we could have eaten a horse. It was funny because a few of the girls started to put the flour on their faces. We still had fun at the pizza place.

"Oh my goodness!!!” Daniella screamed.
 * Rising Action **

Everyone turned towards her to see what was wrong and said what happened. Daniella realized this problem as she heard my phone go off.

She said, "Can someone come back in with me I left my phone in the restaurant".

My friend Sally said, "Sure".

Daniella screamed because she left her phone in the restaurant. When they went to get her phone, her phone was sitting next to a plate of pasta with gravy on it. She thought that was really gross and was worried gravy got on her phone.

"Thank you", Daniella said as Sally was replying back "You’re welcome".

While they were on their way to Daniella’s house. It was a windy, wacky, and wild car ride to her house and said it was time to have fun because we were rolling down the windows and blasted the magnificent, marvelous, music. The music said it's time to have fun. When we got to Daniella's house we danced and had a blast. As it stared getting dark out it felt like the moon's night-light, we all just sat around and chilled out until Daniella got a call from two girls. There names were Victoria and Michaela. They are from Daniella's school. They were kind of friends of Dainella's. The reason they called was to let Daniella know they were upset they were not invited to the party. Everyone started to gather around the basement floor to here what the two girls were saying. The floor was cold because she has hardwood floor. The walls were light pink and yellow. She has a basketball hoop in her basement. I love her basement because it was so big and was so much fun. When Daniella asked them how they found out about the party, they would not say. Daniella said that she was only aloud to invite a certain amount of people. She felt very badly about the situation. The other girls at the party also felt bad and started crying that some of the girls could taste the tears running down their face and into their mouth. After a while we called them back and Daniella apologized again. They understood and forgave her and were no longer upset. Since Daniella didn't invite them she had two goodie bags left and gave it to them. The goodie bags were really supposed to be for her two cousins named Lily and Sara, but they couldn’t make it because they were stuck in traffic. They were stuck in a tan Acura. When Daniella called her cousins up that night, she told her two cousins why they did not receive a goodie bag, they said that's ok we understand.

They asked Daniella," what was in the goodie bag anyway?"

Daniella said, “Chocolate, lip glosses a nail filer, and nail polish."

"O, alright we have to go now." They said.

"Yea me too, I have to get back to the party." Daniella answered.

"It that rock music that you guys are dancing to?" Lily said, before Daniella hung up.

"Yea it's rock music". Daniella answered.

"O, I love rock music!! Ok bye." Lily said.

"Bye", Daniella replied.

Click, click, clack goes the phone when Daniella hangs up.

Ring, Ring, Ring goes the little, loud, lavender telephone, that is driving me bananas. We were at Daniella's house when they called. Daniella picked up the phone and said "Hello?”. It was Victoria and Michaela. They are girls from our school. Victoria and Michaela just called and said to Daniela I hope you and your sister aren't expecting an invitation when it's our birthday. They said that they were just thinking when it's our birthday then don't be expecting an invitation from us. The group of girls at the party, Daniella, and I were all surprised that they would do such a thing. All of our faces were very surprised. They forgave Daniella at first because they thought it was dumb of them to say that, but then they were still a little upset that they weren't invited so they decided to go against Daniella and make her feel bad. Then they hung up, they called back and started to get everyone confused.
 * CLIMAX **

Daniella said "Why not?"

Victoria and Michaela said "Because I'm going to be telling you that I'm only aloud to invite a certain amount of kids."

"Ok, then fine, I don't care."

Victoria and Michaela said "Good because you weren't going to be getting one."

We found out that they called because they felt left-out. We didn't look at from there point of view, but when we did we understood why they called. After they hung up, we all felt really bad. Sofia started to cry because they told Sofia that they were going to be having such a big party and that there were going to be some celebrities their. She ran into the closet next to room that everyone else was in, which was the basement. That's where everyone danced and had most of the fun, the basement. Everyone kept saying, who cares because if you’re not going to go then I'm not going to go. They also said she is probably is not even going to have celebrities there because she told everyone that she was going to have a glass waterfall of her at her last party and that never happened. She said she didn't have it because her dad dropped it when they were trying to bring it outside, but anyways it would have melted because last year on her birthday it was really hot outside. We all screamed they don't care because if there not invited and we get an invitation then we are not going. Victoria and Michaela said pleeeaassseee can you guys come and they said noooo. Then they said fine then if we invite Daniella and Michaela we will guy's come. They said yes. The girls heard them whisper we aren't really going to invite Victoria and Michaela. The girls said heard that and then they just said fine and hung up the phone write away. Everyone just started to dance again and forgot about the phone call.

"Do you guys want to play a game like twister?” Sally suggested.
 * FALLING ACTION **

"That's a great idea", Elizabeth replied.

"Before we start the game, let me go upstairs, to authorize the game to my mom to make sure that it's ok and that she knows what we are doing.", Daniella said.

Elizabeth is Daniella and Sofia's neighbor. Elizabeth has long brown hair that is as shiny as the sun. She has light bluish-greenish eyes, just like Daniella and Sofia's mom, but except her mom has short blond hair. Beth is 11 years old. Her birthday is February 9th. Sofia always thought Elizabeth was a pretty, educated, respectful girl. Her nickname is Beth. Her favorite color is yellow and light red. In Beth's free time she usually hangs s out with Daniella and Sofia. Daniella and Sofia are both of Beth's best friends. Beth knows that she could always trust and count on Daniella and Sofia.

"Come on let's start the game." Daniella said.

"Where do you want to play?” Sally asked.

"We can play right here, in my colorful basement.” Sofia replied.

As some of the girls started to get into position, the other girls grabbed a chair by the basketball hoop and watched girls playing until the next game. Sofia set up the board. The girls who were going to be playing in the first round, was Sally, Daniella, Beth, Monica, Me, Amanda, grace, and Krista. The girls who were sitting out were Jenna, Lindsey, Gia, Mia, Julia, Casandra, Jacklyn, and Michelle. Spin, spang, spung goes the colorful spinning chart. After the first ten spins, before some of the girls knew it, they started toppling over each other and started to laugh. Then when Sofia spun the spinner it messed some of the girls up and made them lose their balance. About six more spins later, still in Daniella's basement playing the game, there were only three girls left that were remaining in the game. The three girls that were left in Elizabeth, Daniella, and Sally.” Holy moly, I wonder whose going to win," Sofia said. Then Sofia spun the spinner once more and then the only girl that was remaining was......Elizabeth. She was on the floor because she fell on the last spin. No one won that round. As she was dawdling while getting up off the floor, the other group of girls started to get into position. Michelle won the second round. After we were done playing we sat down on the big purple couches that Dainella has in her basement. We all just watched TV. We watched Deal or No Deal. We just sat down and forgot about Victoria and Michaela.

Ring, Rang, Rung, Rong goes Daniella's cell phone.
 * RESOLUTION **

"Who is it?” Sally asked.

"It's Victoria and Michaela", Daniella said.

"Ssshhhhhh......” Sofia in a quiet voice to the other girls.

"Hello"? Daniella said.

"Hi, this is Victoria and Michaela." They said.

"We just wanted to say sorry because of our little argument before".

Daniella put her phone on speaker. Some of the girls started to wander why Victoria and Michaela called back to apologize. We all thought they called back to apologize because they felt bad. We were right, they did feel bad. At first Daniella didn't know what to say. So instead she said that she would call them back later. When Daniella said later, she meant when the party was over. Later that night we danced again and had a blast. Before we knew it, it was time for cake. As I was eating, I thought to myself how much time until the sleepover. I had about an hour and half left, maybe even shorter. The cake was delicious. Daniella's mom had made both cakes. Daniella and Sofia love chocolate cake so the cake batter was chocolate with vanilla frosting. After eating cake about a half hour later, everyone left. I was the only one left with Daniella and Sofia. We called Victoria and Michaela back. We asked them if they wanted to sleepover. They said yes, sooo.....when they came over Daniella and Sofia's house we had so much fun and laughed until we couldn't breathe. We stayed up until 3:00 in the morning. We got up at 8:30. We went out for breakfast. We were so tired and lazy that we just went in our pj's. We went to the diner that is right down the street from Daniella and Sofia's house. We all ate chocolate pancakes with chocolate milk. After we went to the diner, we then went back to Daniella and Sofia's house. We got dressed and went to the mall. Daniella's mom took us to some stores. The mall was so big. It had all shopping bags all over the walls. The stores that we went into were "Clothes&Dresses, Charlotte’s Design's, and Your style! We bought so many clothes. When we were at the mall it was around lunch time so we went to a restaurant in the mall. It is called the, BOUNAPPETITE. That is Daniella’s favorite restaurant in the mall. The restaurant was so cool because the floors, walls, chairs, tables, and even the bathrooms would change colors. Everything was so colorful and had pok-a-dots, stripes, and so many more fun designs everywhere. Victoria, me, and Sofia had chicken noodle soup. Michaela and Daniella had a cheeseburger. It was such a cool restaurant. I had such a fun time with the four of them. After the restaurant, my mom picked me up and I went home. I told her all about the party. Later that night I wrote in my pink, shiny, sparkly journal and what I wrote about was......all the fun I had at Daniella and Sofia's party. The last thing I could write was, that friend's always stand by each other. TO BE COUNTINUED................
