"They're here" Anko yelled as she saw the car approaching the house, turning out the lights on her way to the living room

"Take your places" Key ordered and everyone to take their hiding places with lights and windows closed so that there were as little light as possible and the computer was hidden under the table cloth so it also gave little light

Outside the house:

"Ari could you go open the doors please?" Rin asked

"Sure" Ari answered "But I can take some bags to help out"

"Here you go" Taemin said giving her the two less heavy bags

"I can take more you know" Ari said

"Go ahead! We have two hands too" Yara said laughing "and we need someone to open the doors for us"

"But..."

"No buts. Go open the damn doors all this bags are starting to feel heavy" Rin complained

"Aish! Ok ok" Ari said heading to the front door being followed by three exited people "I don't get it why is the house so dark, where are the others..." she started while looking for the light interrupter and once she found it turning on the lights

"SURPRISE!" all her friend and close family said in unison and then started to sing as Key emerged from the kitchen bringing her a birthday cake making the birthday girl come to tears

"Make a wish" her brother said smiling and rubbing her shoulders in comfort

"You guys are the worse" she laughed rubbing her tears away

"Why?" Yara smirked "Because we made you a surprise party or making you believe we forgot your birthday"

"I would say it was the second but I don't think she really thought we would forget her birthday she's our baby sister birthday" Anko joined Yara

"You actually did make me think you forgot" Ari said pouting with a few tears still falling

"Silly girl. How could we forget?" Xti said ruffling Ari's hair receiving a slap on her hand from said girl "Sorry"

"You should go talk to your parents they have to go soon" Onew said interrupting the girls little talk

"Right we'll continue this later" She said to her friends

"Probably tomorrow 'cause next are the presents" Mary said as the girl headed to her room to talk calmly with her parents "Jonghyun, are you ready?" she added as her cousin entered her room closing the door behind her

"Yes. A bit nervous still"

"No need to worry" Minho said calmly

"Look who's talking!" Siwon joined them "You were a lot worse than him" receiving a dead glare from the boy in question, a confused look from Mary and laughter from the rest. After some minutes and the boys explaining to Mary how nervous Minho was before confessing his feelings, to which said boy became as red as a tomato from embarrassment and the girl laughed hard.

"I'm back now we can continue our conversation" Ari said rejoining the group

"That as to stay for later now it's present time" Rin yelled "Ouch! What was that for" she glared at Mary who had hit the back of her head

"For yelling right in my ear"

"Sorry" Rin then pouted "Our first" she yelled yet again receiving a glare from her friend that was seated closer to her

"That's from us girls" Anko complemented smiling. All the girls were looking at her expectantly as she opened their present

"Thanks girls you're the best" she thanked her female friends who had given her a new book and dress she had been eyeing for some moths already

"There's one more" Yara said throwing the DVD they had bought earlier

"I thought that was just rented"

"That was the idea. Make you believe that we were just renting it" Rin smiled

"Now ours" Siwon said giving a box to the girl

"Thank you guys" she said opening the lid and then started laughing "You guys really" she added removing a stuffed dog from the box

"Since you're afraid of real ones we brought you one that won't even move" Onew grinned "Won't give you much trouble either"

"This one is from me, mom and dad" her brother said getting closer to his sister and giving her an envelope medium sized.

"Thank you" she said tears starting to fall as she opened it reviling a bracelet and a photograph of them four with a little note in the back wishing her the best and her parents asking for forgiveness for not being able to be present in her special day

"And the last one is a bit special" Taemin said entering the room with a portable piano and positioned himself to play. After receiving an ok from Jonghyun he started to play as his hyung started to sing:

It’s a mysterious, no, it’s a strange thing, it might be a sickness

I have no strength in my body, I can’t control it

These bad symptoms appeared after I met you

I’m left alone on this black night (in my room that’s filled with thoughts of you)

I can’t do anything and I draw you out as I am in pain all day

Your indifferent face that I can’t figure out makes my breath stop

Your cold eyes digs into my heart, cutting deeply through the center

If I don’t cure this wound, I might die, I might go crazy, I don’t know what will happen

The sickness that is you, the worse it gets, the more exhausted I get but the only medicine is you

If I can’t have you, I might die, I might go crazy, I don’t know what will happen

The only medicine is you

I can’t live if I lose you

"Wha..."

"Ari would you give me the honor of having you as my girlfriend" Jonghyun asked kneeling in front of the girl and taking her hand

"I... I..." Ari stuttered "Ok" she answered blushing profusely 

"Don't be offended she's just out of word right now" Xti said to Jonghyun who looked a bit disappointed from the response he got from Ari

"I think it was her best present hyung" Key said reassuringly

"I hope you take good care of her from now on" Ari's brother said

"I will" Jonghyun responded more excitedly
