~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
With the coming of her birthday she was one year older again. One year more joy as Enid said one year closer to death as Wednesday said. But Y/n herself would just call it a year older with a short party and her friends.
The whole day was nothing but pure laughter. As soon as she got up she was greeted by her friends with generous gestures and gifts. Enid herself had made her hand warmers in bright colors. She had the biggest grin on her face that the older girl had ever seen.

The wool was warm on her fingers and palms, a pleasant feeling and something she will need. Wednesday had also given her something and she thought that the murderous gleam in her dark eyes looked almost friendly. ,,Press" she said and pointed to the end of the pen.
Y/n did as instructed and with a click a small needle shot out of the end and bored itself into one of the innocent plants in the garden. Black spots immediately began to appear on the plant before it collapsed and was obviously dead. ,,For defense...or just for fun" she said and even if it was an untypical gift it suited her perfectly.

As much as she wanted to hug Wednesday, she left it at a heartfelt thank you. Ajax had also given her a small bag in the shape of a book, which Y/n received with shining eyes. ,,It's pretty" she said and hugged the young man, careful not to squeeze any of his snakes too much.
Thanking him, her gaze went back to her small gifts. But between all the gifts of her friends she did not find one. Or rather, she didn't find anyone in particular. Xavier Thorpe. The second artist next to her in the group of friends she actually thought would congratulate her.

She didn't want to seem ungrateful, but both Enid and Wednesday knew her feelings for the painter. So it was no coincidence that she looked around more than usual. In the hope that the painter came every second with in the green garden area. ,,Enid, have you seen Xavier?" she asked after tasting her cake in the form of a book. The blonde werewolf with the colorful spikes also seemed to ponder for a moment before glancing briefly at her friend. But Wednesday also just shook her head. ,,Maybe he couldn't stand the party and killed himself?" she suggested, but Enid intervened. ,,From what I've heard, he hasn't come out of his shack since noon today," said the queen of gossip and rumors.

But inside she wanted nothing more than for him to celebrate with her. Initially, she found him a little aloof and thought it strange why he was hanging out with Bianca. But as time went by after she met both of them, she realized that she had also lost her heart to the artist.
His drawings were beautiful and had their own special touch. But what really made her heart happy was when she wrote him a poem for his birthday and used her power to make the things in the poem real. Soon there were many little butterflies and animals around the boy, looking at him with their colorful eyes.

The smile on his delighted and impressed face was incredibly cute. How he had pulled her into a hug and thanked her, it had cost her all the effort not to melt away. Only the redness on her ears she could cover with her hair needily.
But now, on her birthday, someone still seemed to be missing. ,,I'll be off for a while," she said, reaching for her book before taking Wednesday's pen. She wrote down the sentence to Xavier's shack and heard another ,,I hope you find him" from Enid before flicking her pen to make it come true. from Enid before she made her written words come true with a flick of her fingers.

Instantly she disappeared from the wooden bench near Enid and Wednesday and Ajax who looked surprised when a single leaf of Y/n was left behind. ,,Impressive," he muttered before the three of them continued to work on the cake.
Only seconds later she appeared in front of said hut, at first slightly confused and staggering. She looked around but seemed to be alone. She went to the wooden door and Isn't he here after all ? she asked herself and knocked, but got no answer. She gripped her book a little tighter before opening the door and walking into the completely dark room.

She had left her cell phone at the table and was now literally groping in the dark. She had just written down the word flashlight and had gone a little further into the cabin when she bumped into something. Out of fright she had dropped her book and pen. ,,Don't- wait" she suddenly heard behind her and a short beam of light entered the hut before someone or rather Xavier turned on the small light bulb. ,,Xavier, you startled me," she protested and the small moving lamp cast dancing shadows. ,,Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you...what are you doing here?" he asked, more irritated than angry that she had shown up unasked. ,,I was looking for you, you weren't at my birthday party," she explained, almost ashamed of how far she had gone.

His gaze avoided hers and she noticed that he was standing in front of a large covered screen. ,,Yeah I um...I wasn't there, it may sound silly, but I didn't have a present," he said concedingly, running a hand through his hair. ,,Oh, but you could have come anyway, I missed you, I mean we missed you" she said hastily and took a step towards him. ,,I don't care that you don't have a present" she said more calmly and gave him an assuring smile. Silence fell between the two while both students seemed not to know what to say. ,,Is that a new painting?" she dared to ask, pointing to the covered canvas.

Nervously, he looked behind him and said hastily, ,,Yes, but it's not finished yet. Astonished at his reaction, she tried to walk around him and get to the painting. But no matter how often she wanted to look under the curtain, the more often he intervened. ,,Please let me look just once, I love your art," the younger girl said, picking up her book and pen. A small smile appeared on his lips. ,,That's kind, but no, it's not pretty anyway," he deflected from the subject again. Couldn't he go to the birthday party because of the picture ? the question popped into her head. She turned away from him and opened her book before starting to write the words.

Before she snapped and Xavier looked at her in confusion. But barely a second later, the cloth around the picture disappeared, revealing his picture of her and Xavier sitting together on a bench in the garden. It was their first lunch break together he was drawing and she had shown him her powers.
Small butterflies flew around them while the moon gave the picture a certain pleasant coolness. But what made her heart beat faster was that in the picture Xavier's drawing was a heart floating between them. ,,You shouldn't see that," he said and was about to take it off the canvas when she touched his wrist. ,,Xavier, this is beautiful," she said and her eyes went from the picture to him.

He seemed to be struggling with himself, as if he would choose his next words even more carefully than usual. ,,It-it was supposed to be your gift but-" he broke off and let go of the picture. ,,But?" she asked, reaching for his hand, afraid he might leave at any moment. ,,But I wasn't sure if you would like it, it wasn't good enough for you" he confessed and looked at the picture.

Carefully she ran her fingers over the individual images before arriving at the heart between them. ,,Xavier, you alone are enough for me," she said, her heart beating closer with each word. ,,I was ashamed that you didn't return my feelings," he said at last and she felt her heart beat faster with happiness. ,,Xavier, I was afraid that you didn't come to me because you didn't like me or something," she stammered hastily, wanting to explain everything to him.

But when she felt his lips on hers, she understood what he meant. He was gentle and careful when he pulled her to him, not interrupting the kiss. She could have sworn that his heart beat as fast as hers. ,,Happy Birthday" he said with a smile as he also had a light pink tint on his cheeks. ,,That's the best present of all," she said with a giggle and pulled him close again before he wrapped her in another kiss. Before the butterflies began to fly around them both due to his power. It was truly the most beautiful gift he could have given her. Love.
