Connor had actually put a lot of planning into Addie's birthday. He'd even gone so far as to ask Milo for a bit of help - which he was extremely surprised when the guy actually had agreed to it - in finding out a few things that were needed for this night and for help keeping Addie busy during the day. And then of course he'd had to get Mandy in on it as well so that he could make sure that the girl wouldn't be coming in any time during the night and to make sure that she wouldn't mind if he had to move some of her stuff around in the room. He'd made sure that he'd gotten a pretty big collection of her favorite things for the night. He'd gone out and bought some blue orchids, having them around the room. He'd gotten some cinnamon candles and burned them and there was a new wolf plushie on her bed. Plus, he'd gotten some of her favorite food for the night that was all sitting in a pretty cliche picnic basket - having made sure that Milo wouldn't take Addie to go eat while they were doing whatever - including chocolate covered raspberries for dessert, making sure that he'd also had some iced tea for the beverages. He'd also tried his hand at making her a birthday cake - which admittedly hadn't gone too well but it was the thought that counted, right?
And now all there was left to do was wait for her to get back. He was slightly nervous, wanting her to like everything and the gift that he'd gotten her too. Technically, there were two parts to her gift. The first part which he'd bought and the second part that he'd made. The second part had taken a lot of time and what it was was what looked to be just a pretty big picture of the two of them, but in reality it was a bunch of really small pictures put together to make it. Mostly pictures of Addie or pictures of the two of them made up the picture him and vice versa. But there were also a few other pictures thrown in there too, pictures of Milo for Addie and of David for him. Some of Elijah and Taylor and a few other people - including one grudgingly put in of her and Owen - like the few that were in there of her and her mom and of him and his parents. It'd taken a long time to even track down all the pictures because he tried not to reuse any. He was still just hoping that she'd like it.
