Birthday

I woke up and rolled over, expecting to find my girlfriend, Thalia. Instead, I found an empty mattress. The door opened, and Thalia came in carrying a tray of food. I sat up, and Thalia set the tray on my lap. "Happy birthday, Toby." she said, kissing my lips. "Thank you, baby." I said. "This looks delicious." there was a plate of pancakes with nutella and raspberry sauce, a plate of bacon, and a plate of sausage. "Here, have some." I said. "No no no." Thalia said. "It's yours." "Have you eaten anything this morning?" I asked. Thalia shook her head. "Then share with me." I said. Thalia shook her head again. "Look, babe." I said. "I'm the birthday girl, so you have to do what I tell you to. You're sharing this with me." "Okay, fine." Thalia said, and we shared the food. I noticed a small box on the tray and picked it up. "What's this?" I asked. "A present." Thalia said. I opened the box, and inside was a necklace with a soccer ball pendant. "Cool!" I said. "Thanks, baby!" "Open it." Thalia said. "Huh?" I asked. "It's a locket." Thalia said. I opened it, and saw a picture of Thalia and I kissing on the beach, the sunset in the background. I smiled. "Thank you, baby." I said. "You're welcome." Thalia said. Thalia and I hung out together for most of the day. Around 5, there was a knock on the door. "I'll get it." I said. I opened the door, and saw Cheney and Arod standing there with presents in their hands. "Cheney! Arod!" I yelled, hugging them both tightly. "Happy birthday, Tobs!" they said, laughing. More and more of my teammates arrived, and soon the whole team was in the backyard, talking and laughing. I opened all my gifts, and we ate cake. The team went home around nine, and Thalia and I cleaned up. We went to bed, and I wrapped my arms around Thalia's small body. "What was your favorite present?" Thalia asked. "Well, I didn't unwrap this one." I said. "What was it?" Thalia asked again. "You." I said.
