A/N: So so so so I saw the picture and I couldn't not do a thing. It was just to.... dkjfhsdkjfhsdk. eeerm sorry let me compose myself  *straightens notes on desk*

ANYWAYS, so this is kinda a short thing cause I wanted to do something fun because I am DROWNING in the river of angst that is the Aviation sequel. First chapter of that is almost done! It will be up shortly once I figure out WTF to call it cause 'Aviation sequel' is a shit title. Also, new Shadow Play is in the works too ;)

Love you all, hope you have as much fun reading this as I did writing it. Let me know what you think <3

 Miles Kane can not for the life of him figure out why he's being woken up so early on this morning of all mornings. It's just after 7:30 and yet his phone is already vibrating on his nightstand while it plays the classic iphone jingle. He rolls over to have a look at who it is. His plan had been to shut it off until he saw the photo on the screen that was associated with the caller.

"Miles, who's calling you this early?" Hannah's voice groans from in bed next to him.

"Who do you think?" The smile is already apparent in his voice. It's the second time so far today that Alex has called him. The first was at the very stroke of midnight to sing him happy birthday over the phone. Miles had intentionally let it go to voicemail so that he could listen to that lovely voice anytime he wanted. He then called Alex back immediately after.

"Of course," Hannah yawned rolling back over, and hiding her head under the pillow, pulling the covers up over her. Miles swiped his phone to unlock it on the very last ring before it would have gone to voicemail.

"Hello?"

"Good morning birthday boy. Did you sleep well?" Alex asked. He sounds more chipper than any sane person should be so early (but whoever accused Alex Turner of being sane)

"I was sleeping rather nicely till you rang actually." Miles teased. " There a reason why you're calling at such a god-awful hour? It's barely bright outside."

"Yup, it's time for you to get up. Come over, I made you breakfast!" Alex said proudly.

"Alex, It's my birthday can't I sleep in?" Miles complained, falling back onto his pillow. He stared up at the ceiling for a moment before covering his eyes with his hand letting out a deep sigh.

" No, I'm already cooking and we've got a tennis court reserved for 9:30. Do you want to play one on one? Or doubles with Matt and Cookie?" Alex asked. Miles couldn't help but smile.

"How about the kind of Tennis where I stay in bed and don't end up with welts because Matt gets too competitive?" Miles asked. He does love playing with Alex but didn't feel like leaving the comfort of his cozy bed so early to do so.

On the other end of the line, Alex looks around him before lowering his voice. "Taylor is leaving to take the dog out for a walk. Probably won't be back for about an hour or so. I wanted to give you one of your birthday presents early... you know when it's just us." Alex says in a whisper so that he couldn't be overheard.

"Well in that case," Miles sat up on the side of the bed now thoroughly enticed." I'll be over in twenty." He said before hanging up.

"Going over to Alex's already?" Hannah asked. " I thought the party wasn't until later."

" When Alex said we were spending the day together I didn't know he meant the entire day, but you know how he gets." Miles smiled. " First breakfast, then tennis, then I'm sure that he's got something else up his sleeve."

"Oh, that sounds nice. Have fun with your boyfriend." Hannah Joked rolling over to go back to sleep.

"Yeah yeah, he's not my boyfriend," Miles says, although they both know differently. He walks over to to the closet and sighs as he stares into it. " Has he clued you in on anything else that he's got in mind for today? I have no idea what I'm supposed to wear." He says changing directions and grabbing his gym bag to throw a few things in.
