My alarm goes off, letting me know that it's 12 o'clock. Mary is in the middle of a story about the day Finn auditioned for Stranger things when it does.

"Will you excuse me for a minute?" I ask politely. I still am a little uncomfortable around Finn's family, even though they love me like their own.

"Of course honey. And Abi, you gotta stop being so formal." She tells me. I smile gratefully and run up to my studio to get Gift #2. When I open the door, I see that Cymie has organized the gifts by number. I roll my eyes and grab the one marked '#2', lock the door and jog back down stairs. When I enter, I hide it behind my back. It's no use, though, because Nick nods at me, eyebrows raised in question. Finn turns to see what he means and I glare at Nick. 

"Oh, My bad. Sorry." He says. I just roll my eyes, taking my place next to Finn.

"What do you got there, Princess?" He asks. I pull out the wrapped box, holding it in front of me.

"Oh, you know. I made myself a gift and wrapped it. Just for fun." I say innocently. He grins.

"Is that so?" He questions.  I nod, biting back a laugh.

"Yup, sure is." I tell him. He wraps an arm around my waist.

"Well, may I see this gift you made for yourself then wrapped, just for fun?" He asks. I let out a fake sigh.

"I mean, I guess. If you really want to." 

"I do. Please." He says, giving me puppy dog eyes. I giggle.

"Happy birthday, you dork." I say, laughing. His face lights up, becoming childlike. It's the cutest thing ever, I have to take a picture. 

"Finn, look at me." I tell him, pointing my phone at him. He looks up and laughs while I snap a picture.

He struggles with the wrapping paper, making me giggle

He struggles with the wrapping paper, making me giggle.

"It's not funny!" He shouts because he's laughing, too.

Finally, he gets the box unwrapped and opens it. We all watch as the pictures fan out.
