Just For One Day ?

Happy Birthday... Or Almost

I woke up in David's arms. "Morning love he mumbled still hugging me. I smiled at him. He got off the bed, he was still naked, so he put some pants.
-"I'm gonna do some coffee, do you want some ?? He asked gently.
-Yes please, but first I'm having a bath
-Perfect." He said and went to the kitchen. I went to the bathroom then in the bathtub. While I was sitting, I felt the pain between my legs again, it made me bite my lips. It proved that the last night hadn't been calm.
I grabbed a towel and wrapped my body.
I changed myself, putting a long white dress. I tied my hair in a bun. I put some red lipstick which perfectly contrasted with the dress.
I went to the kitchen, where I saw a little cake with many candles above.
-"David what's the hell with...
-Happy birthday ! He cut me off.
-Aww... David... You're such a sweetheart. I said hugging him tight.
-I'm sorry, I know your birthday was two days ago but I couldn't celebrate it because of Angie and... He said almost crying.
-Shht... David it's okay.... I mumbled to him.
-No it's not okay !! You have to suffer my divorce from Angie, my fame... I love you Vicky, you're my oxygen in this bloody life.
-David, it doesn't matters I love you very much too and if you want me I'll stay with you forever.
-With pleasure my love." He kissed me softly.
"Anyway let's eat it before it becomes a wax cake." We both giggled and cut the cake then eat it.
"I'm going to the studio, do you mind, if I take my lady to dinner tonight for her birthday ??" He asked politely.
I nodded to say yes and kissed him passionately.
We both left the suite each other on his way. Him to the studio and me to my rotten flat.

Two hours later, I was still thinking about David. Will we marry ?? Will we have kids ?? This divorce preoccupied me a lot about our future together. While I was lost in thoughts, someone knocked at the door.
I opened and saw Sheryl, she seemed have taken 10 years in 4 days. Her hair was a mess. She looked terribly sad.
-"Hey Dunk, what's up ?? I said trying to comfort her.
-Mom's gonna die, she's got a cancer. She burst into tears in my arms.
-Oh, Sheryl... I don't know what to say, words fail me.
-I'm gonna leave you Snow White, I'm gonna leave the shop too, I need to be beside her 'til the last time and, and... She mumbled eyes full of tears.
-Don't worry about everything, I perfectly understand. The shop can wait and everything's it's okay for me. Now, if you want, I can help you to pack your cases and accompanying you until the train station." I cut her off.
She hugged me and kissed my cheek. I felt so bad for her, loosing her mother isn't nothing really fun.

Once at the train station, I helped Sheryl to put her suitcases in the train and hugged her one last time.
-"Don't hesitate, call me when you can, even in the middle of the night, take care of you and your family. I wish I could be with you in this strong step... I said sadly.
-Becoming my friend and staying with me during all these years, is the best thing that you've done for me. I'm not sure of coming back one day... But when I come back, I'll tell you I promise.
Oops, I almost forgot, two days ago it was your birthday, I sent to you a letter with a little gift. I hope you'll get it soon. "
I hugged and kissed her one more time and she left me for a while. I didn't tell her about David, I think I'll do someday if our relationship continues.
Finally I took a taxi to go home for changing myself for tonight.
