-December 3rd, 6:09 a.m.-
~Jade's POV~

I wake up, laying on a bare chest. His bare chest. I lift my head and watch him sleep. I smile when I hear him snore a little, and I remember what today is. It's his birthday.

I bite my bottom lip, and I get up off of him very carefully. I realize I'm back in just my underwear and bra so, I grab Tobias's black shirt and throw it on. I tip-toe into the kitchen, throw my hair up into a high ponytail, and get to work. I take out all the ingredients I'd need for pancakes, and fire up the front burner on the oven. When it doesn't light, I peek over to see if he's still asleep, and luckily, he was.

I light the burner with my pinky, and grab a pan. I make about seven pancakes, three for me and four for Four. I peek over at him again, still snoring. 6:31 a.m. It's still pretty early, so, I'm not surprised he hasn't woken up, even after I left the bed.

I cut his pancakes into hearts, and stack them onto each other. I open the fridge and grab all the fruit I could find, and quickly chop them all up. Strawberries, bananas, grapes, raspberries and blueberries. I sprinkle them all on both of our plates, and drown our pancakes in syrup. I grab two forks, and take our plates over to his bedside table.

I set them down and he begins to stir in his sleep. I smile and slip the covers off his body, and I carefully straddle his lap. I lean down and kiss one of his abs, he stirs some more. I trail my kisses up his abdomen, pass his chest, following his collarbone and skipping up to his neck. He was reacting to my touch but, he stayed asleep.

I decide to change that, and I suck and nibble on his neck. I finally wake him up and he sighs happily as he melts into my touch. "Good morning my love." I whisper near his ear, just before switching to the left side of his neck. I leave a love bite on that side, "And happy birthday." I also whisper, and he lifts my face up to his. He kisses me, and I kiss him back, passionately.

I pull away and I sit up, "I made you pancakes." I say softly, and he sits up with me in his lap. I hand him his plate, and he smiles at his heart pancakes. He notices I didn't grab my plate, and he grabs it for me. I take it, and we eat and talk together. He complains on how he could've helped me make these, and I shush him.

"It's your birthday." I tell him, "Exactly, I would've loved to make these, with my beautiful girlfriend, on my birthday." He says, and I take his fork from him. I cut a little piece of his pancakes, poke it onto the fork, and feed it to him. "I know you would've, but today," I say, slipping the fork from his lips, "Today, you're not lifting a finger." I add, and he takes his fork back. "Noo, I love that you wanna treat me good but-" - "Nope no buts, you made my birthday amazing so I'm going to do the same." I say, and he lets his head lay back onto the wall the bed was against. He stares at me with a small smile, "It's just, you're gonna make me feel bad." He says, and I furrow my eyebrows at him.

"How am I gonna make you feel bad?" I question, and he sets his fork down on his plate. "I gave you an ultimatum on your birthday, and now you're giving me heart pancakes and love on mine. I'm honestly starting to feel like a jackass." He tells me and I shake my head, as I'm about to say something he cups my cheek and runs his thumb over my bottom lip. "I'm the reason we fought, for the first time, on your birthday. We'll always remember that day now, you especially. I was mad, and jealous and I shouldn't have yelled at you like I did. I just," He pauses, and he glances down at our food. "I was just really really jealous, after Ben asked to take a walk with you, and then you decided to walk with Ben behind me, and then you went to him for a piggy back ride when you know I would've loved to carry you. I just got really scared and jealous; envious even. So when you said what you said outside of Lauren and Liam's apartment, it hit a nerve. Because I want you all to myself, just like you want the same with me." My beloved says, and I'm touched. But I also realize, my birthday kinda was filled with jealousy.
