May 5, 8:47 am

I woke up from the sound of my alarm clock that rings around my room. Still closing my eyes, I roll over while stretching my body. It's cold like always, making me feel lazy to get up. But I realized, It's my birthday today. That suddenly made me open my eyes and everything in my system functioned when I get out of my bed.

Walking down the stairs, the house is dead silence, empty. She left, like she said last night. Maybe that's a good thing.

But before I passed by the kitchen, I saw a sticky note in the top of my table.

'I already made you breakfast, so I expect you to eat. I just left to go somewhere, I'll be back before you know it.

ps. I set the alarm.
-Catie'

I quickly checked what she made. A toast, bacon and eggs plus a hot chocolate. Simple but if it's Cate who made it, it's always something special.

I finished my food and I decided to fix my table since It's kinda messy because of the paperworks that I needed. While cleaning, I saw some of the polaroids that we took last night. A 7 pictures of me, Cate and us together. Smiling at the photo, I thought about what happened yesterday. I just realized how much a lot of things she did just to surprise me. No one ever made a surprise party for me, and the thought that she made that so I could spend my advance celebration with them? She's very thoughtful. She knows how much I love them, how important they are to me. And the fact that we did celebrate my birthday right exactly 12 midnight, she plans everything perfectly. I can't stop smiling about it, I got to celebrate my birthday with Cate. Rather, with the one I love the most.

It's funny, I was avoiding her because of my growing feelings, now she doesn't know that by doing all of those and following me here is making me to love her more. She's making me hard not to.

I got lost in my thoughts that I just notice that Cate arrived. I immediately drop the photos in the table, and focus to Cate who's dropping some paper bags.

"What took you so long?"

"Because I brought something." She said smiling, "Well, someone."

Then suddenly, that someone's head peek through the door and said, "Hi!".

Oh my fucking god.

"Y/n, meet Sarah Paulson. Sarah, this is Y/n. The person that I'm telling you." I heard Cate said introducing us to each other.

"Catherine, I fucking know her." I said still stunned in my place.

Sarah walk inside and said, "She use your full name, blanket! and nice to finally meet you, beauty! Cate said a lot of things about you."

confused, "I hope it's just good things, I don't trust Cate." I said that made Cate scoffed. Then finally offering my hand, "Very nice to meet you, too. Huge fan." I said smiling. Shit, act normal.

"Trust me, It's a good one." She winks at me, "Oh, and enough of hand shakes, I'm a hugger." She said approaching me with a hug. "Happy birthday, Y/n" She said while hugging me.

I look at Cate while mouthing, 'she's here in my house' I said pointing at Sarah. Cate just chuckles and just repeatedly nodded to me while smiling. "Thank you, Ms. Paulson." I said finally replying to Sarah.
