"The greatest gift you can give to others is the gift of unconditional love and acceptance."
~Brain Tracey

Chandler woke up by the sound of stapling, a stove dinging, and crinkling of wrapping paper, and of course talking. Chandler got dressed and went into the kitchen, and there was Camella baking a cake, Chandler decided to surprise her, "have you burnt down the house yet?"
"What? Oh it's just you Chandler," Camella said trying to catch her breath.
"Happy birthday," she said hugging him.
"Thank you," Chandler said back to her. Chandler decided to go into the dining room, and sure enough there was Alyssa and Patrick putting up decorations and stapling a sign that said 'Happy Birthday!' and Patrick also had a 2 and a 0 to make up 20, which is how old he was turning. "Happy birthday Chandler!" Alyssa said and she came to hug him.
"Thanks," Chandler said.
"Happy b-day dude," Patrick said with his blonde hair as messy as could be.
"Thank you," Chandler said back. Chandler then decided to enter the living room and there was Riley and Kinsey wrapping presents. "Should I be in here?" Chandler asked.
"No you really shouldn't," Kinsey said back. "But since you're in here," she got up from off the floor and started to hug him, "happy birthday Chandler!"
"Thank you," Chandler said.
"Hey, happy birthday," Riley said hugging him.
"Thank you," Chandler said.
"Now leave! We've got presents to wrap!" Kinsey said.
"Ok," Chandler said and he went outside to take a walk. He called his mom when he found a bench at the flower garden, "hey mom," Chandler said.
"Hey sweetie, happy birthday! How is it in the University of Arizona?" His mom said back. He then realized that his parents got a fake email from Dave saying that he was at the University of Arizona, and not telling them what actually happened.
"Good, I can't believe they really wanted me here, I was actually fine at Lenoir Rhyne, but hey."
"How's classes going?" His mom asked.
"Good, they say I'll be a great graphic designer one day!" He lied.
"Well that's good to hear."
"Yeah, I called you just to talk to you, and to tell you that I'm flying in tomorrow."
"That's great honey! How long are you staying?"
"I'm coming back the 25," he said, which was true but he was trying to drop a hint that he was flying in there for his parents 25 anniversary.
"That's great. So a whole month?"
"Yep, I'm coming for yours and dads 25 anniversary," he said.
"That's great!"
"Yeah Samantha can't handle it on her on," he said and his mom laughed on the other end. "Speaking of Samantha, how is the airhead?" His mom laughed at that one too.
"Oh you know, her minds still in space."
"I knew it," he said.
"It was really nice talking to you," his mom said.
"You too, well my friends here threw me a birthday party, and they're finished, so I better get going back." He said.
"Ok bye, love you," his mom said.
"Love you too, bye," he said and he hung up and he started walking to the felicity. When he walked in the living, Kinsey and Riley, even the presents was gone. When he went into the dining room, Patrick and Alyssa was gone, and there was a note on the table, saying:
Read this out loud, 3, 2, 1!
And after he read it Alyssa, Camella, Kinsey, Riley and Patrick busted out of the door and started to sing 'happy birthday' "happy birthday day to you!" They all ended, "blow out they candles!" Alyssa said.
Chandler made his wish and blew out the candles.
"I hope your wish comes true," Riley said.
"It already has, I have all you here," Chandler said.
"Awe," they all said.
"Group hug!" Chandler said and they all hugged. Camella got a knife and started cutting the cake.
"Ok, who's idea was it to give her a knife?" Riley said.
"If you don't shut up, this knife is about to become a multipurpose knife!" Camella snapped holding the knife near Riley's neck.
"Down kitty!" Alyssa joked, they all laughed, except for Patrick, he just sat there in silence, he wasn't used to them yet. Camella gave everyone a piece of cake. Chandler admired the decorations, those fancy candles that float in water, the flowers, which was his favorite, orange arum lilies, they also had a orange marbles in the bottom of the water where the candles were. "Thank you so much guys!" Chandler said.
"No problem," they all said.
"Presents!" Kinsey said and her and Riley got up to go get the presents.
"This one is from me," Kinsey said and she handed him a present. Chandler opened the present and it was a Ginger ale shirt, "thank you so much!" Chandler said.
"Here this is from me," Camella said. Chandler open the present and it was a Mickey Mouse shirt. "Thank you Camella!" He said.
"Here you go, it was a little short notice, so this is the best I can do," Patrick said. Chandler opened it and it was deodorant.
"Well thank you Patrick for this gift of hygiene. Is this supposed to be a sign or something? I put it on everyday, but it's the thought that counts," Chandler said. They all busted out laughing, except Patrick, Chandler noticed that so he said, "come on Patrick, lighten up and laugh sometimes!"
"I'm sorry," Patrick said.
"Don't be sorry, don't be nervous, because the way your and Alyssa's relationship is going, it looks like you're going to be with us for a while," Chandler said.
"Here's you go Chandler," Alyssa said. When Chandler open it wasn't soap like he thought to match the lovely lavender scented deodorant, but a Celine Dion cd called 'Loved Me Back To Life'.
"Thank you so much Alyssa!" Chandler said.
"And as always I'm last, but we did that on purpose, here's mine," Riley said. Inside was 'The Power Of Love' collection that he had wanted since he was 13. "Thank you so so so so so much Riley!" Chandler yelled.
"Wait, here's one from all of us," Kinsey said. "We all pitched in a little something something and here," she continued. When Chandler unwrapped it, it was a plain white box, then he opened the box and inside the box was the ultimate Celine Dion collection! There was he live shows that was recorded, movies, every cd she every made, a shirt from her Las Vegas show, a signed picture of her, a booklet about her and her life and a cd that had a sneak peek of her new album. "Thank you so so so so so much guys!" Chandler yelled, he was pretty sure that everyone on earth could hear him. They all hugged and Chandler said, "guys I have to tell you something."
"What?" They all asked in unison.
"Tomorrow I'm leaving to go back to Taylorsville for my parents 25 anniversary and I'm staying there for a month, I'm not coming back 'till the 25th of May."
"Ok, we all have to do our own thing," Kinsey said.
"Yeah, we understand, and I doubt anything will happen while you're gone," Camella said.
"Yeah and if anything does we can handle it," Alyssa said.
"It's just like if one of our parents died, the others could handle it with that person," Riley said.
"Ok," Chandler said.
"And if anything does happen, Joe will handle it," Patrick said.
"How do you know that?" They all asked.
"Remember I work at the control panel," he responded. After he said that a siren went off and they rushed into their room and they put on their suits, they was just guessing because that never happened before, after they got their suits on they rushed into the auditorium, which had no chairs, only a platform like a helipad and only four exits. Kinsey got in the middle, Camella got the one going straight out, Alyssa got the one going through a dark hallway, Chandler got the one that also led into a dark hallway, and Riley got the one going under the stage. They got into those spots on pure instinct. When they was ready to go and waiting for a cue, Dave came out and said, "good job everyone! That was great, but make sure you're faster on your changing, but good job getting into your spots, those are exactly where you are supposed to be! This was just a drill, keep up the good work, and remember, faster change means, more life saved! That's all for today, you're at liberty to do what ever you want, goodbye." After that Dave left and they left the auditorium to go into the dining room to clean up. While everyone was cleaning up, Chandler put up his presents and he saw Fido asleep in his tiny Tuxedo and his tiny party hat. "Too much fun at the party Fido?" Chandler asked. "I knew so," Chandler said, "well you get well rested because I want to say goodbye to you in the morning, too bad I can't bring you home, maybe next time."
Camella came in and Chandler said, "here's money for Alyssa's big present from all of us, and my present is in the Rubbermaid container, it's the Fall Out Boy cd and the Panic! At The Disco cd."
"Ok," Camella said. "So you're not flying in for her birthday?" She asked.
"No, but I'll Skype you so I can everything." Chandler explained.
"Ok," Camella said.
