AGATHA

After the two had their meal at Heyward's, Trinity received many texts from Rafe asking her where she is. She explained she was having a meal with her father and that she'll be over in an hour.

"Okay, you ready to go?" Matthew asked his daughter, shortly after paying.

She nods and stands up, tucking her chair in, "I'll drive you home and then I have to go to Rafe's house."

Matthew nodded, not being the biggest of Trinity's boyfriend but respecting her decisions, "Rafe." He repeats quietly.

"Come on Dad." She says, leading the way out.

"See you later, Thorne," Heyward shouts, referring to Matthew by his last name, Heyward and Matthew were very good friends. "And Trinity happy birthday! I hope to see you soon!"

"Oh you will," She smiles, walking out and into her car.

Trinity finally makes it to her Dad's house, "Happy birthday, sweetie, I love you."

"I love you too, Dad, again, thank you so much for the car, I love it."

"I'm glad."

"Happy birthday!" Everyone in the Cameron family shouts as Trinity steps in through the doorway, each of them holding a gift bag in front of a big purple banner and two matching balloons, 'one' and 'seven'.

And finally, Wheezie, crouching in front of Rose with a confetti cannon in her hand.

"I don't even know what to say," Trinity stammered, trying to hide the grin spread across her face, "Thank you!"

"Come! Come open your gifts!" Rose lead the way to the kitchen.

Wheezie had handmade a card, inside was a sweet message and a ten-dollar note, Sarah had bought a red bikini that Trinity had once said she wanted, Rose and Ward had a joint present; a necklace and matching earrings with a money clip, and Rafe had gotten her another bouquet, a charm bracelet, a ring, and a teddy bear.

"Thank you, all of you, thank you so much!"

"You're more than welcome,"

"You're one of us, sweetie."

"Group hug!" Wheezie shouts, pulling everyone in.

"Okay if you don't mind, I'm going to spend some time with my girlfriend," Rafe wraps an arm around her waist and pulls her back.

Rose and Ward laugh, "Okay, you know the rules,"

Ward meant to keep the door open, Rafe never listened but Ward didn't care enough to check.

"Okay, okay, we're going now." Rafe grabs Trinity's hand and walks up the spiral staircase.

"Thanks again, guys."

Rafe laid flat on his back, flicking through Netflix with the remote, "What do you want to watch?" He asked.

"Up to you."

"You're the birthday girl." He sits up and pulls her close.

Not giving into his acts, Trinity takes the remote and turns to face the TV on his wall, "Wolf of Wall Street?" She suggests.
