Don't you like Halloween?
Epilogue (Jack POV)
7 MONTHS LATER
Jack POV
I woke up to a squealing Matt on top of me. “HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU! I LOVE YOU A LOT!”
I smiled, but at the same time I was dog-tired. Matt of course didn’t give me some more minutes in bed.
“JACK YOU NEED TO STAND UP I HAVE THINGS FOR YOU TO SEE,” he squealed in a high-pitched way, causing me to flinch. Hell, it was my birthday; couldn’t I have at least a tiny lay-in?
When he wouldn’t leave me alone, I groaned and sat up. I stood up from the bed and gathered some clothes, still not fully awake. I slipped them on, almost tripping in the process, and got to the kitchen.
The table was beautifully laid and there were flowers, as well as a rather fucked up birthday cake. I smiled; I knew Matt didn’t like baking too much, but for me, he had done it.
He led me to my chair and I sat down. He got out a ukulele and started strumming Happy Birthday.
“Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dumb adorable Jacky, happy birthday to yooouuuuuuu,” he sang, grinning widely. I couldn’t help it, my lips twisted up as well. He bent down to give me a kiss.
“No, I’m eww-y because of morning breath!” I said, attempting to push him away but he just pressed me against my chair and kissed me gently.
“I don’t care if you have morning breath Jacky. I think it’s time for your present!” he said, suddenly looking a bit nervous. I smiled more, he was just adorable when he was a bit nervous and excited.
I quickly popped a breath mint, I didn’t care if he found it okay if I stunk, I disliked it.
He handed me a something flat wrapped in (what else?) Mickey Mouse paper and I opened it. It was a framed picture of us two, taken at a party we had both been to. We looked happy and very cute. Matt was looking straight into the camera with his dark eyes while I kissed his cheek, a smile on my lips and my nose slightly pressed to the side because it was touching his face. My hand was on his chest. I smiled, the warm fuzzy feeling of love in my belly more prominent than ever.
But there was more! Behind the frame was an envelope. I opened it and found two plane tickets to Paris. They were dated to the 25th of July, exactly one week from now.
I jumped up and hugged Matt very forcefully. I kissed him about a thousand times on his cheek before finally letting go of him. He stumbled backwards, looking happy.
“So I guess you like it?” he said bubbly. I nodded frantically and he kissed me on my nose, grinning widely.
I kissed him back, sliding my tongue over his lower lip after only a few seconds. He let me in immediately while he picked me up and transported me to the bedroom, putting me down in the exact same spot I had gotten up from earlier.
“How about some birthday sex?” he purred, before pulling up the blanket over our entangled bodies.
