Mary Winchester | 14 | [Action]

[was_a_hunter]

[Sitting in the Parlor, Mary was mildly surprised by the decorations she saw. She'd completely forgotten about her birthday; the author apparently hadn't though. The decorations were in shades of pink and light purple, streamers and balloons littering the room. the best thing though was the white and pink cake in the middle of the room 'Happy Birthday' written in elegant letters in the middle of the cake.

She may not know the author, but she was touched that the day hadn't passed with no recognition. If she was to understand things, she wasn't even supposed to even have a twenty ninth birthday. She may not be at home, but Mary was counting her blessings that she was able to see it at all. Taking a seat by the cake, she looked around the room, simply in awe at all that was done for her. Some people may say that it wasn't much, but she hadn't even been expecting someone to know what day it was.]

This is far nicer than anything I expected today...Thank you.

[She wasn't sure if the author would even hear her, but there was no reason to be rude and not thank her for this lovely gift.]

[He didn't remember soon enough that he could get her a gift, seeing as he kinda remembered when he got up. An embarrassed, slightly guilty look crosses his features in the form of a sheepish grin.]

Not until this morning.

[was_a_hunter]

[Smiling slightly, she kind of expected that response. She knew that the boys had lived without her for so long, a birthday wouldn't be too remembered.]

That's fine~. [Reaching up, she patted his cheek gently.] I was actually going to save you some cake for later.

[100deaths-a-day.livejournal.com]

[didn't stop him feeling bad about it.]

okay, thanks. Have you had breakfast yet?

[was_a_hunter]

[Considering she just woke up a little while ago, she couldn't say she had.]

No, I haven't had a chance yet. Why?

[100deaths-a-day.livejournal.com]

[He gust gives her a smirk, and playfully tsks her] You weren't having cake for breakfast, were you?

[was_a_hunter]

... [Smirking, she looks off to the side, clearly amused.] Maybe~.

[100deaths-a-day.livejournal.com]

[He laughs] Yeah, I don't think so. [It's not so much because it's cake for breakfast, but it gives him an excuse to cook her something, somethign which under normal circumstances she'd probably tell him he didn't need to do, and he'd definitely probably relent.

That, and it means that he can kind of make it up to her that he'd forgotten to get her a gift.]

Sit down, and if you touch that cake, I'll take it away. [But the grin probably counteracts any threat in that. Not that there had been, with all the mock sternness that was there.]

[was_a_hunter]

Hey, who's the parent here~? Shouldn't I be the one telling you no cake? [Grinning, she nudged him playfully. She wouldn't have eaten too much before making a proper breakfast, but she couldn't very well tell him that.

Still, she set back on the couch, and playfully pouted.] You mean you're going to leave me with the temptation? So mean~.

[She had an idea of what he was planning, and she actually thought it was pretty sweet. And besides, when he got back, it would be a perfect time to have a talk with him about her new roommate.] Alright~. You win.

[100deaths-a-day.livejournal.com]

[He laughs] No, if I was the parent, I'd take the damned cake away.

[He rolls his eyes as he walks to the door.] I'll be back in a minute.

[And when he returns? He has a stack of pancakes for her, and syrup to go with them.]

[was_a_hunter]

Language~ [It was said mockingly though. He wasn't a child anymore, she knew that.

Sitting back on the couch, she went from fidgeting with her shirt to staring at the cake. She wanted to go into the kitchen to help, but she knew that he'd probably just shoo her out again. It was easy to tell that this meant a lot to him, the least she could do was let him do it.

Sitting up again as he re-entered the room, a brow rose as she saw the pancakes. Well...that was better than what she was expecting.] I see you graduated from toast. Now, tell me that you're going to help me eat all of that.

[100deaths-a-day.livejournal.com]

[He chuckles] A few years ago. [He puts the plate down, and produces two forks with a grin.] And I was thinking about it.

[was_a_hunter]

[Just smiling, she sat up properly and moved the cake further down the table. They didn't need that with such a pretty plate of pancakes.]

They look wonderful~.

You didn't need to go through all of that trouble though.

[100deaths-a-day.livejournal.com]

No, it wasn't any trouble. Plus, i think there's an unwritten rule somewhere about Mom's birthdays and cooking breakfasts.

[was_a_hunter]

Still...you didn't need to. [But it was still very much appreciated and the wide smile on her face said it.

Leaning forward, she took her fork and cut a piece of pancake from the stack. Thankfully, she'd have some help defeating this monster, she doubted she'd ever be able to eat all of it in one sitting without feeling like she was going to explode.]

It's good...very good actually. If I knew you could cook like this, I'd have dragged you in the kitchen sooner~.

[Though admittedly, she'd probably just have had him sit down and keep her company.]

[100deaths-a-day.livejournal.com]

[He chuckles] and then end up telling me to sit my ass down and let you do it. [He knows, because he'd do the same if their positions were reversed.]

[was_a_hunter]

Is there something wrong with that~?

[That was her right. She enjoyed cooking and she enjoyed talking with people, it was the best of both, especially since he was family.

And speaking of family.]

I ran into someone earlier.

[100deaths-a-day.livejournal.com]

oh? you say it like this isn't a tiny place.

[He's.... interested to see where this is going.]

[was_a_hunter]

Well... [Okay, he had a point.] I mean someone of significance.

Why didn't you tell me that you had a girlfriend?

[100deaths-a-day.livejournal.com]

[just excuse him while he chokes on his mouthful.]

2/3

[100deaths-a-day.livejournal.com]

[Air. He's getting it again now. He still looks pretty damned shocked - this was news to him.]

3/3

[100deaths-a-day.livejournal.com]

What?!

[was_a_hunter]

[Okay, maybe she should have taken it slower. She couldn't hold back a smile though; his reaction was more than a little amusing.]

You heard me. Why didn't you tell me you had a girlfriend? She seems like a lovely girl.

[100deaths-a-day.livejournal.com]

I don't have one! Who the hell told you I did? [He's more than a little pissed that someone's been saying this shit now that the surprise has dulled.]

[was_a_hunter]

[About to scold him for his language, she suddenly realized exactly what he said.

He...didn't? That didn't make any sense though.]

I believe her name was Bela.

[100deaths-a-day.livejournal.com]

[with the name, what he HAD been about to say died on his lips.]

Bela. [It wasn't much more than a growl. Again she was proving that letting the hounds gnaw her ankles had been a damned good idea.]

Of course she did. But I can tell you very damned honestly I would never date that bitch. [....yes, he was still holing a grudge.]
