note: sort of short. made specifically for today, July 1.
"Hey, Mattie!" you said, running up to the blonde. He looked up, and you watched as a blush dusted over his cheeks.
"H-hey, _____," was the soft reply. You smiled, lifting yourself up on your toes to give him a quick cheek-kiss. "Wh...?"
"Happy birthday, Matt!" you said brightly. His cheeks lit up almost as bright as the leaf on his flag.
"H-how did you remem-!" His sentence was cut short by your mouth.
"Silly, I always remember!" you replied, giving the red-faced Canadian a maple-sweet smile.
"This is why I love you, _____..." he murmured quietly. A grin formed on your face as you leaned forward.
"I do have a bow in my hair, Mattie...and bows sometimes mean presents..." Your tongue flicked across your lips, and you watched as Matthew's eyes sparked.
"Let's go, then," the usually shy male whispered, pulling you into his not-that-faraway house (since you both were standing on the lawn).
Matthew (and you) had decided that it was the best of his birthday's that you had spent together.
