Soleia Livingston's P.O.V.

It was a good morning... For me to take a nap. I smiled, getting more comfortable in my bed. Yep. It's a good morning.

Until, my peaceful moment was interrupted by someone jumping on my bed.

"Ugh," I groaned, turning to see my boyfriend, "Why did I give you a key to my house?"

"Uh, cause you love me?" He asked, jokingly. He gave me smile, kissing my cheek, "Good morning, baby. Happy birthday."

"Thank you." I said.

"So, do you have anything that you want to do, princess?" He asked, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear.

"Not really." I said, laying my head back on my pillow, "Just wanna go back to sleeeeep."

He chuckled, "Okay, then."

He laid on top of me, resting his head on my chest as he hugged me. I laughed, "I'm too short for this."

He mumbled, "But I still wouldn't choose anyone over you."

Out of nowhere, my phone vibrated.

"Ugh." I groaned, rolling over, leaving Jonah, who also groaned, as I pick up my phone on my nightstand. I looked at the phone, seeing a text from my mom. I haven't seen her in years. And now, she's trying to get me to come see her?

"Who's that?" Jonah mumbled, his voice still raspy.

"My mom." I replied. He rolled over, pulling me backwards by the waist, "Turn it off, babe. Let's just have a lazy day."

I sighed, earning a look of puppy eyes from him, "Please, babe?"

"But I–"

"Please, babyyyy?"

I sighed, "Fine."

"Yay!" He cheered like a small child. He pulled me back on the bed, laying me down, "Now, come here."

"You're such a dork." I said, laying by him.

"But, I'm your dork." He said, emphasizing the your, as if he was correcting me.

"I know that you weirdo." I said. He chuckled, kissing my forehead before returning to his original position. I played with his hair, causing it to stick up in funny places. He just smiled, burying his face deeper on my chest. I laughed, him chuckling, "What's so funny?"

"Your hair." I replied.

"What did you do?" He asked, his voice muffled on my chest.

"Go look in the bathroom mirror and find out." He looked up at me, scrunching his eyebrows before doing what I said, "Ugh, Leia."

He returned to me, a pout playing on his lips, "I'm gonna get you back for that."

Next thing I know, I was laughing uncontrollably. He was tickling me.

"Noooo! Stop itttt!" I laughed, he just laughed a little before saying, "No."

It continued for a couple more minutes before he stops, both of us panting. He was on top of me, looking into my eyes. His eyes flicker from my eyes to my lips. Next thing I know, I felt a pair of lips on top of mine. I kissed back, his hands grabbing my waist. He started to play with the hem of my shirt, looking at me for permission.

"I don't know..." He smiled, kissing my forehead, "It's okay, baby. Sorry for rushing you."

I gave him a light smile, "It's okay."

I yawned, earning a raised brow from him, "You sleepy?"

"Just bored." I admitted.

"Not to worry! Super Jonah will save the day!" He said in a superhero-narrator voice. I giggled, "You dork."

"Quick question. Movies or board games?" He asked, standing up from the bed.

"Uh... Movies. Probably Harry Potter." His eyes beamed as he says happily, "Way ahead of you!"

I laughed before he set up the tv.

I was snuggled in Jonah's arms until his phone vibrated. He scrunched his eyebrows, looking at his phone, checking his messages. I tried to peek over his shoulders but he turned to his side, "Uh, listen, baby. I've got to go."

He kissed my forehead before rushing out of the room and out of the house. *That was weird. Jonah loves Harry Potter more than anything. What could be more important than that?* Just then, the doorbell rang. I turned off the tv and went downstairs. I went to the door, unlocking it and opening it. I was greeted by an embrace.

"Happy birthday!" Sam's voice echoed as Jack chuckled, also greeting me.

"Thanks." I said. Sam entered the house, followed by Jack.

"Jonah left?" Sam asked, sitting on the sofa.

"Yeah." I replied.

"Bummer." Jack muttered, sitting beside Sam. I sat in the armchair as Sam gave me a box, "Sorry. I got too lazy to wrap it."

I opened it to see a bracelet with the words bestfriend. Eventually the rest of the boys got here. We talked and laughed and hang. I noticed that Sam kept on looking at the clock and when it struck around 6:30, she nudged the guys and nod to me.

"Leia, there's something Jonah wants you to wear. He said it was upstairs, in a box under your bed."

"Um... Okay...?" I said, weirded out. She ushered me upstairs and made me wear the dress. Once I was done, I went down and saw the guys in tux. Okay. Now, this is just getting weirder and weirder.

"What the hell is going on?" I asked.

"Shush. Now, get in the car."

***

"Where are you taking me?" I asked. Sam stopped at a park, "Boys, get out."

And they did. I was about to follow them when she locked the door.

"Sam, what are you doing?"

"Keeping you hostage." She said, looking at her watch.

"Sam, stop being weird."

"Normal is boring." She said, playing on her phone.

"What are we doing?" I unbuckled the belt, trying to unlock the door to get out.

"Leia, shush. You're making too much noise." She said in a monotone voice, focused on her phone.

"Tell me what's going on or I will get out of this car and walk home and you won't stop me." She looked at me with a blank face before her lips curled to a smile, "Okay then. Get out."

I closed the door and she sped off. That girl.

"Ms. Livingston." I turned around, seeing Zach, Daniel, and Corbyn, smiling at me.

"Follow me, please." Corbyn said, leading the way. Zach and Daniel were by my side as he lead the way. There were petals of roses on our path. At the end, I can see a table with two chairs, a candle at the center. The trees were decorated were fairy lights. Just then, Jonah appeared from a corner, holding out a bouquet of roses and chocolates. He gave it to me, kissing my forehead before he went in front of me, the boys following suit. Jack showed up with Sam and he quickly rushed to the boys. They started to sing some of their songs that Jonah and I mostly listened to. After they finished singing, the guys assisted me to sit, Sam giving us food before they all disappeared. It was just me and him now. I looked at Jonah, and he gave me a smile, "Happy birthday, princess."

I blushed, causing him to chuckle, "Do you like it?"

I nodded. He grabbed my hand from across the table as we talked and spend our evening together. Dinner underneath the stars.
