After everything that happened the months seem to fly by before I knew it was Criss's birthday and I was throwing Criss a surprise party at Serenity and with a little help from his brothers I hoped to keep the party a surprise. My father even offered to make the birthday cake for Criss which I couldn't wait to see. At the house I making sure everything was ready as my grandmother was helping Nathan wrap a gift for his father. How's it going, I signed to Nathan. He showed me and I gave him a kiss. Very good daddy may not want to unwrap it because you did so well. That made Nathan smile. "So when are JD and Costa bringing Criss home?"my grandmother inquired getting a drink. "Around seven I just hope dad gets here with the cake"I worried. "Don't worry your father has never been late"she replied sitting next to Nathan. "Well let's just hope he doesn't start now"I muttered.

A knock came to the door so I went to answer it. I opened the door and standing there with the cake was my dad. "Daddy thank god I almost thought you wouldn't make it" giving him a kiss. "Well I had to make a pit stop in New York" he stated. Stepping out of the truck was Dimitra. "Dimitra I thought you couldn't get a flight out because of the winter storm warning in New York" as she came in. "Well I knew your father was bringing the cake so I asked if he could give me a lift which he was happy to do" giving my dad a kiss which made my dad blush. "Well come on Criss isn't surpose to be here untill seven". When Dimitra saw what I had done to the place. "Antonia this place is amazing Christopher is going to go bonkers when he sees this"she stated. "Question how are you keeping Criss away?"my father asked. "Well his brother packed his schedule and he has a rehearsal for Believe than around six thirty Felix is going to come down to tell Criss that a water pipe broke in Believe so he canceling Believe and tells him to go home for the night than surprise"I explained.

"And if something goes wrong?". "I told JD to knock him out tie him up and put him in the trunk of his car and bring him here". That made Dimitra and my grandmother and father giggle. "Well Christopher knows I'm coming so I'm going to see him I'll see you later". "Hold on we can both play the game"my father stated and they left. "I think your father likes Criss's mom"my grandmother stated. "Grandmom please that's like dating you no offense"I replied trying to get that thought out of my head. Back at The Luxor Criss was reading some of the birthday card the loyals sent him when he saw his mom and my father walk in. "Mom Dennis how nice to see you" giving his mom a hug. "Happy birthday Criss"my father said. "Thanks so what brings you down here?" Criss asked my dad. "It's a funny story I was devilering a cake to Planet Hollywood when your mom calls me up and infos me that because of the winter storm warning they cancelled some flights including your mothers so I offered your mom a lift to Las Vegas". "That's one way to save on airline miles"Criss replied.

"Christopher are you OK you look a little pale". "It's nothing mom you know me I get white when we go into the winter months" Criss stated rubbing his side. "Why you rubbing your stomach?"my father asked. "I just eat something that's not sitting right"he replied. "Have you been vomiting Christopher?". "I did this afternoon after lunch" he replied a little embrassed he was having this conversation with his mother and father-in-law. "Criss have you had your appendix taking out?"my father inquired. "I don't think so why?". "Because I think you maybe spending your birthday on an operating table having it removed". "" Criss muttered. "What's wrong?". "The pain is getting sharp instead of dull"Criss replied. "Dimitra find either JD or Costa we have to Criss to the hospital"my father remarked. In Believe JD was on the phone with me. "He hasn't figured it out yet and Felix is all set for his part". "That's great also your mother and my father should be down there and they know about the party so just play along with their story"."All right" and hung up as Gerard came running in.

"JD we've got a problem a big one"he stated catching his breath. "Don't tell me someone let the rabbit out of the hat". "No but it's worse your mother and Antonia's father just took Criss to the ER Criss maybe having his appendix taking out". JD's mouth fell on the floor. "Are you pulling my chain?". "No". Back at the house I was putting some of the platters in the refrigator when the phone rang and saw it was JD again. "What's up JD Criss wants to come home". "Something unexpected came up". "What Criss have an interview that ran later?". "Worse my mom and your father just took Criss to the ER Criss may need his appendix talking out tonight". "Are you kidding me JD am I being punked?"I asked as my grandmother walked over. "I wish you were you better cancel the party the guest of honor won't be there" and hung up. "Baby what's wrong?" she asked as I hung up the phone. "I've got to postpone the party"I replied. "Why Criss stuck in another state?" she inquired. "I wish dad and Dimitra just took Criss to the ER he may need his appendix taking out tonight"
