'Come here....soon....you'll be with us....you will be alone....the day of your birth will be one to despise....Kazuo...it'll come soon...' "BEEP. BEEP. BEEP. Wake up, silly! It's your birthday! Wake up, silly! It's your birthday! Wa-SLAM!" I punched my alarm clock and covered myself with the blanket. I closed my eyes and tried to fall back asleep but I remembered, it was my birthday! I got up and got dressed. I didn't know where Shina was though because she wasn't in the bed. "Morning..." I yawned. When I opened my eyes, I saw a table full of breakfast!

"Happy birthday, Kazuo!" everyone yelled. Everybody was there. Xaria, Rina, Dad, Mom, Shina, Hinabi, and some other people. "Thanks everyone!" I smiled. But I then noticed Aria sitting in a corner. "Here's a birthday kiss, darling!" Shina exclaimed, giving me a kiss. " And here's one from me!" Hinabi kissed me as well, making the other boys knock out (except for my dad). I walked over to Aria but didn't look at her. I just leaned against the wall and crossed my arms. "You've got a lot of nerve showing up here." I said. "Well, I was kinda forced, but I also didn't want...to...miss your birthday.." she grumbled. "How stupid. You really think you would be accepted here? Listen, you better leave, before you regret ever existing. Tell Coy that he can fuck off. Now get the fuck out." I whispered, grabbing her by her shirt. She teared up and ran out the door. I went back to where everyone was and Shina grabbed my arm. "What was that about, darling?" she asked. "It's nothing. Let's just go eat." I smiled.

"Alright time for gifts!" my mom clapped. "You don't need to act like this is my 5th birthday mom." I sighed. Everyone started to give their gifts to me and everyone was giving me stuff for babies. "Uh, thanks guys but why are you giving me baby stuff?" I asked. "Well, that's where my gift comes in." Shina smiled. She handed me a tiny box. I looked around, nervous as hell. I opened the box and there was something that looked like a thermometer. It had a plus and minus sign on it and it said 'Positive'.

"W-What is this?" my hands started shaking. "It's a pregnancy test." Shina said. "T-This means..." I started tearing up and smiling. My whole body was trembling. She nodded and we hugged. "WOOOOOOOO!" everyone happily yelled. I squeezed Shina tight, tears rolling down my eyes. "This is the best birthday I've ever had.." I told her. She looked at me and we kissed. "Alright everyone. Thanks for coming for breakfast! We sent you the address for the ball so we'll see you you soon!" Mom said. Everyone started leaving while I was just staring, confused. "A ball? Why a ball?" I asked. "Hey, ask your wife." she said, raising her hands up. "W-Well, I-I thought i-it would be nice. I-If you don't l-like it we can cancel it.." she frowned. "I meant it as why a ball for me? I'm just some random teenager." I replied. "You're not just some random kid. We all love you." Dad said, coming in for a hug with Mom. Me, Shina, Hinabi, Mom, and Dad hugged and for once in my life, things felt perfect.

"Darling?" Shina said. "Mhmm?" We were both sitting down playing some video games. "Do you think anyone else from the game could come here? It's possible right?" she asked, mashing her controller. "I mean, yeah. But I wouldn't want to be stuck with anyone else." I smiled. "GAME OVER! PLAYER 2 WINS!" the game announced. "Hey, not fair! You distracted me!" I said, staring at her with a smile. "I knew I was gonna win." she smirked. "Well, I know your about to be..TICKLED!" I pounced onto her and started tickling her. We both kept laughing and ended up laying on the floor, out of breath. The door slowly opened and I saw Hinabi glaring. "You guys really want more kids huh..." she whispered. "NO! THAT'S NOT WHAT WE WERE DOING!" I yelled.
