Blake ignored him completely, all of his attention still on me. “Happy birthday,” I said softly, handing the box to him. “Thank you.” He took it from me gently, a curious look on his face as he slowly opened the box.

Aaron began to unbox the gift, I glance at Kai, Asher and Rue who were staring at Aaron excitedly. Aaron finally got the wrap off, opening the box. He gasped on seeing whatever was in it, looking up at them again. “You guys.” He croaks out and well, sounds like no one’s dying or going to jail. “Do you like it?” Asher asks but I could hear the nervousness in his voice. “Like it? I love it! Are you kidding me?” He finally takes the gift out and it’s a book. “You guys shouldn’t have.” He smiles widely, opening the book.

My throat tightens, and I lean forward to kiss him, letting the gratitude and love I feel pour into that simple act. “Here,” I say, pulling a slightly larger box from under the tree. “This is for you.” Caleb raises an eyebrow but takes the box, unwrapping it to reveal a leather-bound sketchbook and a set of high-quality drawing pencils. His eyes widen, and he flips through the blank pages, his fingers brushing over the pristine paper. “I noticed you sketching the other night,” I explain. “Figured you could use something better than scraps of paper.” He looks at me, his expression softening. “It’s perfect. Thank you.”

It was quite spacious too. There had been a box underneath the rusty desk which she had ignored when she got in here. But she was bored and she needed to get busy. Pulling the box out, she tapped her palms against it, causing a cloud of dust to overpower her. She coughed… Relieved a bit, she opened it. There were lots of books. ‘Oh thank goodness,” she murmured, happy that there was something she could do to pass time before their escape plan would be executed.

- Alice shouted cheerfully, apparently wanting to improve the atmosphere a bit, which had become a bit sad because of Meredith's story, which in turn was completely out of place for a birthday party. Selene blew out the candles and sliced the cake. After everyone had eaten, she took care of the gifts. Aunt Meredith gave her the Book of Spells that Selene's mother used, she got a protective amulet from Elisabeth, a deck of tarot cards from Rita and Eleazar, Isabelle and Johnathan gave her runes, Alice, Tess and Teresa such small things as a cauldron, potions bottles, magic candles, incense, magic powders, etc. Maria and Deborah gave her a crystal ball.
