2.5 surprise

real life

I woke up around 4 pm, and I saw someone sitting in my desk chair. He was wearing all black and not facing me. I thought I was just seeing things, so I turned around and tried going back to sleep. It worked for a little before something dropped and I heard him mutter, "Shit."

I jumped up from the covers, turning my attention towards the intruder. 

"Who are you?" 

He didn't say anything to me, just slowly turned to face me. He had a face mask on and curly black hair. He just stared at me with wide eyes, not meaning to wake me up. 

"Hello?" I said again, earning no response from the man, as he picked up the dropped item and place it back on the desk. 

"If you don't tell me who you are, and why you are in my room, I am going to scream," I tried one more time.

"Surprise! Happy Birthday, Butterfly," the man said, as my eyes went wide in shock and my jaw dropped.

Corpse actually came here to surprise me on my birthday. He chose this day to be the day we met, despite knowing the circumstances and whatnot. This is not how I expected to meet him, but I am so glad we met this way.

Definitely, the best surprise on my birthday I ever had.

"Bubba!" I jumped out of bed and ran over to him as he stood up from the chair. He wrapped his arms around my waist, and I wrapped my arms around his neck. 

He smelt heavenly, and just being in his arms is something I don't think I could ever get used to. He had muscles and held me tight, and it just sent me over the moon. Even though I could only see his eyes, his facial structure was masculine and mature. I could have cried tears of joy at this very moment.

"I'm so happy to see you, baby," Corpse spoke, dipping his head down to rest in my neck. 

"You made my birthday so much better bubbie."

We stayed in the hug for what felt like hours, but only minutes. 

He pulled away first, sadly, and took something out of his pocket. 

"This is for you," Corpse said, handing me the small box. 

"Thank you, you didn't have to," I said, placing the box on the desk.

"I wanted too, open it now please."

I shook my head before opening the box to reveal a necklace with a butterfly charm. I was completely shocked and left speechless. Corpse just continuously knew how to take my breath away, and it was such a good feeling to have.

"Thank you so much bubbie, I absolutely love it."

"I'm glad," he responded, taking it from my hand to put it around my neck. I was honestly so ready to collapse.

It was a beautiful necklace, even more, the thought that Corpse actually picked this out for me, sent chills down my spine. It was extremely thoughtful and I was so grateful he thought of getting me this. 

"I hope you don't mind me keeping this on just so I can get a little more comfortable," he spoke pointing to the face mask that covered a majority of his face.

"Corpsey, it's completely fine with me. You just being here, is absolutely perfect and what I need."

Corpse just nodded and shoved his hands in his pockets, unsure of what to do, courtesy of his anxiety, most likely. 

I went to go sit down on my bed and motioned for him to sit down next to me, which he gladly followed. 

"Don't get too comfortable, we have reservations for dinner soon."
