- ELLINIA - 
It is now Friday, August 5th at 1 A.M.
I am no longer a teenager. 
Not just me, but my twin brother. 
I've never really stayed up this late, but I stay up longer thinking about my life, and my childhood.
The good and the bad, 
How Pab has risen to fame in such a short amount of time, how his best friend has impacted mine. 
I always remind myself that I deserve good things each year, and my birthday is a reminder of that. 
Once I look at the time and I'm seriously thinking of gouging my eyes out, I decide that I should probably get some sleep even if it's only for a few hours. 
I did end up sleeping, and I'm woken up by the sound of firecrackers entering my room, as well as a yelling now 20-year old. 
"HAPPY BIR-"
"Pab, please lower your voice. I'm not even here yet mentally."
He sends me a dirty look before placing the cake on my desk, and sitting on my bed.
"Boring. Happy birthday, Gavira #1. Can you believe it, we aren't teens anymore?" 
I drink some of my water, and eye the cake that is what looks like a berry chantilly cake. 
My favorite. 
"No, I can't believe it. I don't want to."
He smiles at me, and then gives me a side eye, "You forgot to tell me something." 
"I love you?" 
"No." 
"Oh is it your birthday today? I didn't know! Happy birthday Pablo!" 
"Haha. Funny." 
I motion him to come closer, and I give him a hug. 
"Happy birthday, Pab. Te amo mucho. More to us always." 
"Always, Hermana." 
"Oh, by the way Pedri came to drop off the cake. I don't know what kind, but he said it's only for you. There's a note as well. Cheeky little man didn't get his best mate anything." 
He got me the cake? 
"Don't be jealous, Gavira #2. I'm sure he'll get you something better." 
"Sure he will." 
He crosses his arms together, pretending to be mad.
Or maybe he's being serious. 
Men.
I shoo him out of my room so I can get into the shower and start my day.
My day. 
Just before I'm about to go into the shower, I eye the cake once more and decide to read the note that's left. 
To Lina, 
Happy birthday amor. 
Mas para nosotros. 
I hope you enjoy your day, and your weekend even more.
Weekend?
(PS. You'll understand in a bit.) 
Anyways, have the best day, the better Gavira. 
Siempre, Pedri.
I smile at the note and feel a little blush creeping on my cheeks.
