I awoke to the sound of the girl's giggling and something licking my face. I open my eyes to see Winter licking my nose and Mahogany, Issy and Gabe standing in front of me, hold a breakfast tray. "Happy Birthday Mommy!" The girls hand me the breakfast tray and kiss me on the cheeks. "Thank you, girls." I smile, "And thank you for giving me a birthday wake up call." I say to Winter, petting her.

The girls and Winter leave the room, leaving Gabe and I alone. He lays in bed next to me. He watch me eat breakfast. I sigh, "Why do you always have to watch me at the worst time?" I say while eating toast.

"I just love looking at your beautiful face," He smiles.

I roll my eyes, "What do you have planned for today? Since you wanted to take me out on a birthday date."

"Well..." He feeds me a strawberry, "After you eat your breakfast, I'm going to draw you a nice hot bubble bath with roses, then the girls and I are going to take you out for lunch. After we drop them off to my parents for the night, I'm going to show you your first birthday gift. We'll walk around a bit then we'll go to dinner."

"Ooh sounds like fun," I smile.

He kiss me on the lips, "Wait until dessert."

After breakfast, I took the nice hot bubble bath Gabe promise me. As I lay in the tub Gabe rub and massage my feet and shoulders. After my bath I got dress for my date today. Gabe didn't want to wear anything fancy so I just put on something casual. Once everyone else was dress, we all hop in the car. We went to eat lunch and drove to his parent's house. After we drop off the girls Gabe finally takes me out to eat with the girls, then we drop the girl's off to Gabe's parents, then we finally went on our date. The first place we go is... My job? "Gabe why are we at my job?" I ask.

"Because I have a gift for you here." He gets out of the car

He goes on my side, open the door for me and help me out. He walks me past the door. He takes both of his hands and cover my eyes. "Love you remember how you always hate the side of your building because of the graffiti?" He ask

I scoff, "Yes, I wanted someone to paint the wall but I never found the time to call someone."

"Well..." He moves his hands away from my eyes, "Happy birthday." I open my eyes and was awed at what I saw.

"Gabe it's beautiful." I kiss him, "How did you do it?"

"Remember when you told me that you wanted Melanie to paint you something on you birthday." I nod, "I ask her if she could paint a mural for you and she said yes. Her and a few kids from a community center where she volunteered did this for you."

I smile, "I love it so much."

"I'm glad you do." He hugs me from behind, "But that's a hint for our date." He smiles.
