July 10th. Fezco's birthday.
It'd been a week since the drugs incident, and everyone had moved on. Lilith, Lexi, ashtray and rue had been planning fezco's birthday for the week. Buying him gifts, Lexi baking him a cake the day before, and now was the day itself.
Fezco was still asleep in his room, it was 9am and everyone was awake, trying to decorate the house as quietly as possible.
If ash was honest, he wasn't used to throwing birthday celebrations and all that shit. Him and fez had always kept it on a sort of down low, just a small happy birthday and maybe a few blunts smoked in the evening and that was it.
But, this was the first time ash was actually celebrating a birthday. He smiled over at Lilith, as she stood in his joggers and T-shirt, working with Rue to pin 'happy 21'st!' and 'happy birthday' banners on the walls all around the house.
Lexi was in the kitchen, decorating his cake as she'd only baked it the day before and then left it to cool overnight.
Ash was cleaning the house up in general, as it was his first time celebrating a birthday properly and he didn't really know what to do. He'd hoovered the night before, and now was cleaning all surfaces, placing cushions neatly on the sofas and the chair in the living room, and spraying air freshener everywhere.
Lils walked in, taking a deep breath of the cotton air fresher while looking around before smiling over at ash.
"You've done a really good job ash. Now we've got to go and wrap all his presents." She said quietly, before both of them tiptoed upstairs to his bedroom.
She reached into his closet and pulled out a roll of sellotape, a huge roll of black sparkly wrapping paper, and a few sticky bows for the tops of his presents.
Ash pulled all his presents out from under his bed. Ash had bought him some smaller things, while Lilith had gone slightly all out, since she too didn't always get the pleasure of celebrating peoples birthdays.
They sat down on ashtrays floor and got to work, wrapping each present carefully while joking around quietly with each other.
While Lilith wrapped a big, heavy box, ash suddenly reached forward, his finger catching under her chin, tilting her head up to look at him.
She raised an eyebrow in confusion, but small butterflies erupted in her stomach as they stared at each other with soft expressions on their faces.
He leaned over slightly. He was now so close that their noses were almost touching, and they could feel each other's small warm breaths on each other's faces.
Her stomach was doing summersaults, as was his.
Then, all of a sudden, he reached his other hand up, sticking a long strip of sellotape on her forehead before falling backwards, cackling.
