Face In Hole Birthday Novels & Stories

Fellow agents smile at me, looking a bit silly with birthday hats on top of their formal suits. Not having noticed Cade leaving my side, I see him bringing in a tall chocolate truffle cake with the words, “Happy Birthday Hira,” written in red. Coming to a stop before me, he whispers, “Happy Birthday, love.” “Thank you, you shouldn’t have,” celebrating your birthday is useless when you know that anytime, you’ll die. “Who says agents can't celebrate their birthday?” The lights flickered from the glowing yellow to dim blue light as the music began playing through the speakers that surround the room, everyone shuffles around.

On re-entering the glass lounge, Ben was shocked to see a small gathering of all the familiar security personnel with Lydia in the middle, holding a cupcake with a single burning candle. They were waiting below the stairs and facing the glass lounge. While he was still trying to figure out what was happening, the exit door opened and everybody shouted "HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEN!"

I laugh so hard my ribs ache. Oh, my. This woman is everything. “Nope, I didn’t forget. I can never forget your birthday, love.”

Alana was holding tons of boxes of pizzas also Geraldine holding food while Heaven, Zylus, and Kian holding a gift. I wipe my tears after they sang me a birthday song. It is such warm greetings, I'm so touched. "Happy birthday, Ms. Workaholic" Zylus greet me, but his tone is teasing. I hug him tightly after he kissed my forehead. "Our baby turned 19" Kian hug me after I let go of Zylus's hug. I'm the youngest in our circle of friends that's why they're teasing me! "Happy Birthday" He whispered between his hugs.

We were both laughing. “Yeah,” I said, pausing to look at the photo. “Bella thought it would be funny to smash cake on my face for my birthday gift that year.” Darren’s expression softened, and he moved closer to get a better look. “You look happy.” “I was,” I admitted, a pang of nostalgia hitting me. “That was my first birthday. My first celebrated birthday, I mean.”

for the occasion. Happy Birthday, Olive! Here’s a bunch of olives you can invite to your birthday party!

She stared at her own reflection in the massive mirror, her brain short-circuiting for a brief second. November 15th. "Oh my God," Hazel breathed out, rinsing her mouth. "Mom, I completely forgot. I had no idea what day it was." "How do you forget your own twenty-fifth birthday, Hazel?" her mother scolded playfully. "You are working way too hard. Has that handsome boss of yours planned something special for you tonight?"

I clasped my hand and batted my eyelashes, a smile creepier than that of Joker's adorned my face. "So...?" He leaned away noticeably. "Someone's pre-birthday is this Friday and that person's birthday is next week. Do you know who that is?" I feigned ignorance, still blinking rapidly. "Hmmmm...lemme guess" he acted like he was thinking. I sat back and let him take his time. "Oh oh oh I know!" He exclaimed in realization. I smiled, ready for my hugs and kisses. "It's ADAM'S birthday!" He exclaimed, clicking his fingers.

NAOMI "What celebration?!" I asked, facing Dylan. He frowned in return. "It's Hayden and Hazel's birthday today." He replied. My face was void of any emotions, but beneath I was dumbstruck.
