Louis Nyx thought he was only meeting Keonho Cherrilane and Wonyoung Delaire for a normal hangout. Instead, the room was dark, balloons covered the wall, and the second he stepped inside

“Surprise!”

Louis barely reacted before smoke came from the kitchen.
Wonyoung sighed. “Tell him.” Keonho shrugged. “The first cake lost."
“You burned it hufttt” Luckily, Wonyoung had a backup cake ready, an adorable elephant cake with pink cheeks that looked made for a child.

Keonho stared. “He’s sixteen, not six."
“Close enough,” Wonyoung replied.
Louis looked at the cake and laughed. “This is actually perfect.”

Wonyoung smiled softly. “Happy birthday, Louis.” Keonho nodded. “Yeah, happy birthday.”
Louis went quiet for a second.
“Thank you. Really.”

Flashes went off, candles melted, and the room stayed loud with laughter while Louis sat there grinning like he’d lowkey never forget this one.
