The stage had been set. After a week’s worth of preparations, Justin’s surprise party was finally here and the work put in had well paid off. Balloons boasting of Hufflepuff house colors littered the downstairs living space, glittering banners hung here and there spelling out HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JUSTIN! in bold, eye-catching letters. The table tops were covered in a similar fashion, bright plastic tablecloths dusted with confetti and glitter placed throughout. Where there wasn’t a bowl of snacks or punch, there were flowers, balloon weights, another decoration brightening the space. Hannah’s day spent cooking had well paid off with the delicious small that hung in the air, weaving in and out of the balloons. A table of brightly wrapped presents stood just beside the sofa, elaborate bows catching the eye. With an eclectic mix of music pumping through the room, it was all ready to go.
By 7:15 the party was already in full swing. With Justin there and the surprise going off without a hitch, it was easier to mingle, the floor space cleared for the most part save the chairs pushed up against the wall for those who wished to sit.
