Birthday

Secret Life

Whole Server

Grian walked towards the small wooden house on the horizon. If it could even be called a house, it didn't even have a roof. He sighed as he trudged his way over, his feet dragging and squinted against the sun. Grian knew why he was so discouraged. He lived all alone and had no friends or alliances. Today was also his birthday, and no one had remembered or bothered to come and see him. That took a toll on his mental state. Grian didn't know why Scar had asked him over here, but he assumed it was probably for another elaborate trade of his.

As Grian reached the door, he sighed and ran his hand over his hair, trying to flatten it desperately. He then decided it was a lost cause and reached for the handle, twisting it and pulling it open. What he was greeted with was far beyond what he had expected.

"Grian!"

"Heeey!"

"Hello!"

"Ayyyy!"

"'Ello!"

"Happy birthday!"

Grian looked around in shock. Everyone had set up beds and bunk beds and were lying on them with broad smiles on their faces. For the first time in a while, Grian smiled back at his friends. Scott, Gem, and Impulse grinned down at him from the top bunk of a queen sized bunk bed, while Cleo, Etho, and Bdubs smiled from where they sat on the bunk below. Mumbo Pearl and Scar gestured for him to come over to them, and he laughed, side stepping Tango, Skizz, and Bigb sitting in their sleeping bags. Grian sat down beside Pearl, and she hugged her brother from the side. Joel laughed from where he sat with Jimmy and Lizzie, and the blond started to sing.

"Happy Birthday to yoooou!" Jimmy sang and Grian laughed in amusement as Martyn and Etho joined in.

"Happy birthday to you!" Impulse Gem and Scott sang happily.

"Happy birthday, dear Grian!" Cleo and Bdubs laughed as Tango brought out a cake.

"Happy birthday toooooo yoooooou!" The whole server finished the song, and Grian was in tears.

"Awwwww!" He laughed thickly. "You guys shouldn't have!"

"Happy birthday, Grian." Scar said, hugging him as Tango arrived with the cake.

"Make a wish, G!" Skizz said, and Grian smiled.

"I wish that a bit of ash from these candles will fly all the way to my ugly base and burn it to the ground." Grian blew out the candles, and everyone laughed.

Bigb and Joel cut the cake, and Mumbo ran around the room, passing out the pieces.

"Best birthday ever." Grian said smiling as Mumbo handed him some cake

"Really?" Gem asked from where she sat. "In a death game?"

Grian nodded and smiled. "With my friends."

"Awwwww!" Impulse laughed, "Thanks G!"

"He loves us." Jimmy said with a small laugh as Martyn tried to steal his slice of cake. "Hey back off!"

Martyn laughed and pulled his fork back with a smirk. "Sorry!"

Grian smiled, watching as his friends interacted, just happy to be there. Mumbo hugged Grian from the side, and Pearl dropped her head in her brother's lap. Grian smiled and sighed, this time in content. He was home.

It's my birthday today, and I got inspired. Anyway, thanks for reading!
