Catra's POV
If you didn't know, I am a fuckin orphan.
I don't even know my own birthday! But my foster parents put my birthday the same day as this other girl I used to be close with in my unit.
Which was today.
I was dancing around by myself and then got the brilliant but to call and invite the one the only Y/N to get pancakes with me on my birthday.
I honestly hate pancakes but it's an excuse to brag it's my birthday.
I jumped on my bed and dialed their number.
"Hey Catra! What's up!"
"An important day.... like really important."
"Yeah! So you got the invite to Adora's party tonight?!? I am hosting it... it's a surprise so please don't tell her-" I cut them off. "Actually it's my birthday." I said.
They paused.
"OH SHIT! Catra I am so sorry I completely forgot!" "It's fine! I'll just make plans-" "Nonsense! Come to the party tonight! I'll host and it could be you know- a joint party." Y/n said.
"Invite a friend too! I have a present ready for you!" Y/n said before they hung up.
I scoffed. Did she really just forget? I DON'T HAVE ANY FRIENDS- I heard a knock in my door, I went to open it, "Oh my god. What are you doing here Sparkles?!?" I groaned.
"It's your birthday and I wanted to celebrate it with you?" Glimmer said as she handed a to go box to me and a bag with a balloon.
"Gee thanks you didn't have to." I said with a small smile, "Well I wanted to! Open it! Not the food by the way, THE PRESENT!" Glimmer said. I opened the big fat bag revealing an old record player.
"You did not-" I gasped feeling tears in my eyes, "I thought you might like it-" "I LOVE IT!" I shouted as I hugged her.
"I also got you pancakes." I smiled.
"Hey G?" i said. "Yeah?" "Wanna do something fun?" I asked with a smirk.
"Like what?" she asked.
"Let's go to a party where we aren't wanted."
