"I came to bring you breakfast in bed, but I couldn't find you", holland spoke kissing the back of my neck
"sorry.. I woke up", I shrugged
"are you feeling okay?", holland asked turning me around
"yeah why wouldn't I be?", I wrapped my arms around her neck
"because if you were in your right mind you would be naked right now, in bed", she looked at me with a dirty grin
"shall I return to the bed then?", I smirked against her lips
"happy birthday gorgeous", holland hummed moving a stand of hair behind my ear
"thank you", I smiled pulling her body against mine, holding her tight
"lets get you back to bed missy", holland kissed my forehead before lifting me up and carrying me back to bed, laying me down
"did you cook all this", I giggled looking down at the abundance of pastries
"oh I was slaving away all night", she agreed sarcastically joining me under the covers
"thank you honey", I kissed her deeply
"anything for my girl, especially when it's her birthday", she kissed me again "so my little twenty-five year old, what do you fancy?", holland asked as we both scanned over the array of pastries
"this one", I quickly grabbed a croissant, taking a bite melting at the taste
"good?", holland smirked at my satisfaction
"is tastes familiar", I swallowed
"it's from the same place we went to when I took you for breakfast at Tiffanys", holland explained
"oh honey", I kissed her again "that is very sweet"
"you're very sweet", she kissed the end of my nose
"it's hard to remember that we weren't always together", I confessed
"I know", she spoke in thought
"and now we have officially been together for nine months and five days", I took another bite
"you're counting rather closely"
"I don't want to dismiss any day that I get to you have you with me"
"neither", she bought me further into her side
"so we have New Years, then January, I leave on the sixth and you start your new job on the tenth right?", I looked up at holland
"correct", she kissed the top of my head "but I don't want to think about the four unbearable months that you won't be here, today I just want to think about you", she squeezed me tight
"mm I love you", I relaxed
"I love you too much"

"god you're beautiful", I whispered running my fingers over every perfectly sculpted detail of hollands face
"I'm nothing compared to you", she whispered back
"you're everything compared to me", I spoke lowly moving in to suck on her bottom lip
"oh princess", she ran her hand down my back cupping my ass
I wasn't big on birthdays so holland and I had spent the last hour in the bath.
Holland wanted me to have a party, but I didn't know anyone in New York, Bird was still in Philadelphia and all my new friends from AHS live in California.
