IT'S BEN'S BIRTHDAY!!!!
But sadly it's a school day :(
Mal's POV
I can't believe Ben is turning 17!!!
I stayed with him last night.
So I woke up before his alarm.
I quickly got dressed into school clothes, then I packed mine and Ben's backpack.
I also put a little letter inside, so when he is in class looking for a pencil, he would find the letter instead.
Then I went inside the walk in closet to pick out Ben's outfit for the day.

I wanted to change it up a bit, he always wears tuxedos, so now he is wearing something more comfortable

I wanted to change it up a bit, he always wears tuxedos, so now he is wearing something more comfortable.
It's now 7am.
He was laying on his stomach with his head turned away from me.
So I sat down next to him.
"Ben" as I shook him
He was snoring.
So I shook him again.
"Hmmm" he hummed

"Goodmorning birthday boy" as I smiled
He chuckled inside the pillow.
"Come on baby, it's time to get up" as I rubbed his back

"A few more minutes" as he put the blankets over his head

"Ben, come on"

"But babe, it's my birthday"

"And? Come on, wake up" I said
He didn't move.
Then I got up and took a deep sigh.
"Fine okay, I will just meet you at school"
Then I started to walk towards the door.
"Wait wait wait" he quickly said
I turned around to see him standing up from the bed.
"I'm up" he added
I walked back to him.
"Great. Now I picked out your clothes for today" as I smiled
I showed him and he loved it. So he immediately changed into them.
When he got done, we fixed ourselves up a bit.
Then we headed straight to school.
15 minutes...
We went inside the cafeteria to eat breakfast.
I saw Evie, Doug, Carlos, Jane, Jay and Lonnie already sitting down and eating.
Some students said happy birthday to Ben.
His former tourney teammates also told him happy birthday.
Then we went to go sit down.
"Happy Birthday Ben!" all our friends said at once
I saw Ben smile really widely.
"Thank you guys so much"
We then sat down.
"So, what are your plans for today?" Evie asked

"Not sure" as he swallowed his food
Evie looked at me with a grin.
"Evie, don't look at me like that"

"What, I didn't say anything"

"But I know what you're thinking"
She smirked.
Ben saw and he blushed.
"I do have plans, but it's not that" I said to Evie
Evie nodded.
"Make sure y'all take some cute pictures" she said

"Yup, make new memories" Carlos said

"Definitely" I said
We went back to eating and talking.
Then the bell rang.
I said goodbye to my friends.
"Bye, I will see you next class" I said to Ben

"I'm walking you"

"No"

"Yes"

"I mean I can't say no to you" I said

"I'm going to start walking with you for now"

"Why?"

"Because, I love you" he said
I giggled.
He then walked me to my class.
Once when he got to the door, I gave him a kiss on the cheek and walked towards the door.
"Hey" as he whined
I turned around.
"What?"
He just stared at me.
"Are you okay?" he asked
