The car ride was quieter and seemed shorter with Mirri sleeping. She had moved at some point in her sleep and now had her head facing my stomach and a handful of my shirt. She still had one hand by her hair, and every so often she'd twirl a bit on her finger.

"How do you plan to attack this?" Stefan asked as he parked the truck in the garage.

"What do you mean?" I asked, thinking it was obvious I was going to carry her.

"Are you going to carry her? Or are you gonna wake her up?" He asked before he got out.

"Well I'm sure as hell not waking her up. So I'll opt for the safer option." I answered as I got out the truck.

I managed to pull her out and I wrapped her legs around my waist. Her head rested on my shoulder and her arms wrapped around my torso. I had one hand under her ass to support her and the other held her back in case she decided to wake up so she doesn't just throw herself away from me.

I carried her up the stairs, leaving Stefan to deal with the dogs. I opened the door to her room and carried her over to the bed. I pulled back the covers and laid her down, tucking her in again afterwards. I tried to walk away, but didn't get far when she grabbed my hand.

"Stay with me?" She mumbled, not opening her eyes.

"Yes, I will. Just let me go and get changed first. I'm not sleeping in a suit." I laughed as she reluctantly let go of my hand.

I walked out of her room and made my way to mine. I opened the door and stripped out of my suit, quickly pulling up a pair of sweatpants up my legs. I walked back out and started making my way back to her room and almost fucking shat myself when I saw Stefan walking up the stairs.

"Holy fuck." I breathed out as I jumped back slightly.

"Hello to you too." He laughed.

"You staying here tonight?" I asked as he nodded.

"Yeah I'm gonna stay in Remi's room. She asked me to water her fern. Whatever the fuck that is." He explained as I crossed him.

"Fair enough the-"

"Fucking hell man. Has she got some secret fucking claws we don't know about or something?" He laughed as he looked at my back.

"No. Just long nails and a shit ton of pleasure." I shrugged as he laughed.

"You do realise some of those have bled right." He asked.

"I do." I answered.

"You can tell she enjoyed it." He laughed as he started making his way to Remi's door.

"So did I." I retorted.

"Fucking masochist." He mumbled, making me laugh. "Night bro."

"Night."

I walked back into the room to see Mirri laying directly in the middle of the bed. I laughed slightly and walked over. I laid down between her legs, resting my head on her chest. I moved my hands underneath her and rested my open palms against her back. Her arms wrapped around me, one rested on my back, between my shoulder blades, and the other found it's way to my hair, scraping her nails against my scalp.

I woke up to the feeling of something heavy on top of me. I opened my eyes to see Jaden laying on my chest with his arms wrapped around my back, still sleeping. His mouth was slightly parted and his hair was a bit of a mess from my hand being in it all night. I had to laugh a little at the sight.

It was a good thing that he was still asleep, but a bad thing he was sleeping on me. Last night I realised what I had been forgetting. It's Celia's birthday, and wether he likes it or not, I will be seeing her today. Him laying on top of me just makes it that little bit harder to get out. I loosened his grip on me and tried to slide my way out from under his body.

I had managed to succeed and I made my way into my bathroom. I went to the toilet and brushed my teeth before walking back out. I noticed the time was 8am. If I remembered correctly, her school bus will pull up at 3:30. If I left at ten, I could go around the markets for a little bit and get lunch at the small café down there.

I walked into my closet and put on a graphic cropped top with blue jean shorts and fishnets underneath it paired with a black pair of biker boots.

I sprayed a bit of perfume before walking out to do my hair. I tied it up in a high ponytail and almost fucking jumped out of my skin when I stood up and saw Jaden stood behind me in the mirror next to my desk.

"Jesus Christ. Don't do that." I whined as he smirked at me.

"I'm sorry princess." He played as he wrapped his arms around me. "Now where are you going to be dressed this early in the morning?" He asked as he put his thumbs through the belt loops on my shorts.

"I'm going out." I answered simply.

"This wouldn't have anything to do with a little girls birthday. Would it?" He asked as he stood up properly and turned me around to face him.

"You know?" I asked him.

"Of course I know." He answered.

"I'm going to see her." I stated.

"No you're not." He argued.

"Jaden. You're not going to stop me this time. I need to see her, for her benefit. Her dad sure as hell isn't going to do anything for her birthday, no one deserves that. So every year, I get her a present and take her to her favourite diner. Nothing you say will stop me for fulfilling that for her." I told him. I wasn't going to budge.

"It's not safe." He pointed out.

"Fucking come with me then. Cancel your meetings, cancel anything you have on and come with me if you're that bothered. But I am going today, with or without you." I threatened.

He stood silent for a little while. He looked down at the floor, sighed and then looked back up at me.

"What time are we leaving?" He asked.

"Ten o'clock." I answered.

With that, he nodded and walked out of my room, and made his way to his own. That was easier than I expected it to be.
