Luhan smiled through blurry eyes from just waking up, and looked around his room expectantly. Sadly, no one was there, he frowned and sighed, walking to the bathroom to get dressed and ready for the day. He walked out of the bathroom and-BOOM-

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MY SWEET PRECIOUS CHILD!"

Confetti was floating everywhere around him when Luhan opened his eyes, laughing and smiling. He saw his mom, dad and brothers, Yixing and Tao, standing there holding a big, blue ice cream cake with chocolate underneath the ice cream and frosting and 8 rainbow candles lit up. They started singing, while his mom was videotaping everything with tears in her eyes and a oh-my-baby-is-growing-up smile. Luhan walked over to the kitchen where they were standing.

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear 鹿晗, happy birthday to you!"

Luhan blew out the candles and his family cheered while he laughed at his brothers' coughing from the smoke blown in their direction. His mom and dad walked towards him with a gift in each of their hands, "This is for you from Mom and Dad," his mom handed him the gifts in her hands, "And this is for you from your brothers."

His dad gave him the gifts from Tao and Yixing, which consisted of two differnent colored t-shirts. The T-shirts had "I'm brothers with stupid->" written on them, but one had the arrow pointing to the left. Luhan laughed when he saw Tao strip off his jacket, revealing his matching t-shirt, "TA-DA!"

Tao frowned at Yixing, who had a stupid smile on his face, not knowing what was going on.

"You were supposed to do it with me, you knucklehead!"

Yixing laughed and covered his mouth with his hand innocently, "Oh, hehe, oops."

Luhan burst into laughter at Yixing's innocent stupidity and cluelessness as Yixing stripped off his jacket, doing what he was supposed to do a minute too late, revealing his inside-out worn t-shirt. Luhan cried on his birthday, laughing so hard he thought he would die. After everything calmed down and Luhan's parents helped his brother wear his t-shirt correctly, he opened his parents' gifts on the couch in the living room. He started with his mom's gift, a blue scarf knitted out of expensive cotton, by hand. He put it around his neck, cherishing the warmth that it provided for him, "Thanks, mama! I love you,"

He walked over to his mom hugging her waist, and looking up at her with his signature entrancing face. She laughed and kissed the tip of his nose, "I love you too, sweetie,"

Luhan smiled and walked back to his dad's present, opening it to find that a brand new soccer ball was sitting inside the wrapped box, and underneath was a note. Luhan squealed in delight, hugging his soccer ball, for it was the most precious thing in his life. He looked at the note, and it said:

-Look outside in the backyard-

Luhan looked at his dad, and his dad nodded at him with a smile on his face. He burst out the back door with his new soccer ball to find that there were two newly-bought goals set up on both sides of the backyard, next to the small playground they had. Luhan dropped the soccer ball with his eyes
