Not All Heroes Sing (Tony Perry Love Story)

*Chapter 58*

[Avie's POV]

It was Christmas Eve, and we were all dressed for a Christmas party.

I told Tony i should open my gifts when i can see them, but he still wanted to give me something. He was staying by my side all night.

It was then i hear Mike shout out."Alright, alright, let's make a toast, shall we??" he announced.

Tony placed a glass in my hand and colied his arm around my waist.

"First, i want to wish a very belated Happy 18th birthday to Avie, who we couldn't celebrate her birthday for obvious reasons," Mike said. "Hope you have an awesome 18th year."

Everyone applauded.

Wait... I'm 18?

"I'm 18 years old??" i asked, Tony.

"Yeah, your birthday was during the days you were kidnapped," i hear him say with a sad smile.

Wow... I was broken to a point where I didn't even realize what day it was when i was down there. I can't believe it... I didn't even know my own birthday passed...

I felt a tear roll down my cheek, everyone aww'ing sympathetically, a blush slightly crossing over my cheeks.

"Baby, no, don't cry," Tony said, taking off my sunglasses and holding my face in his hands and kissing me gently as his thumbs gently wipes my tears away.

"Its just shocking..." i said.

"I know, but you're still here, you made it through," he said.

He kissed me one last time before i wrapped my arms around his waist and Mike continued, him, Jaime, and everyone else smiling at us.

"Also, a toast for another amazing Christmas, all together," he said.

The party continued and it soon it was midnight and everyone was opening presents while i listened to what everyone got.

Mostly clothes, jewelry, sweets and electronics.

"Alright, now, Avie asked to open her presents later on when she can see, but this final gift for the night is still for her. Its sort of a birthday present i was saving for her, so, yeah," he said, then i felt him put a necklace on me, by the way a thin chain felt around my neck.

"Its an infinity necklace, representing you and me," i hear him say.

I smile as i play around with the necklace in my hands, and then throw my arms around him, as the sound of 'Awww!'s echo the living room.

He holds me tight and presses his lips against mine. "I love you," he said against my lips.

"I love you, too," i said.

Soon we all went to bed after cleaning up everything.

Avie lied down on the bed as was out like a light. I smiled, changed itno a pair of Star Wars boxers and a black plain tshirt, and crawl into bed, my arms around Avie's.

Soon, I feel asleep as well.
