A birthday story done for my good friend EmeraldMoonGreen! Happy Birthday, Amiga!

Kristin felt like she was champion of the world. She smiled as her beloved Grant Mansion family sang her the birthday song and presents her with a delicious cake.

"Happy Birthday, dear Kristin! Happy Birthday to you!" everyone sang.

Kristin closed her eyes, making her birthday wish.

Once she made the right wish, she blew out her candles.

"YAAAAAY!" All the humans and aliens cheered and clapped their hands.

Rachel and Sasha gave her a big sisterly hug. "Happy Birthday, Kristin!"

Kristin was so happy, she wanted to cry. But she held back her tears and hugged her sisters back.

After the cake and ice cream, it was time for presents.

Kristin insisted that she never wanted anything for her birthday, but the aliens wanted to give her something.

A hover board made by Frankenstrike, a soccer ball from Ben, new clothes from Rachel and Sasha.

And a ball of yarn from Rath and Shiro.

Everyone laughed at the gift, even Kristin knew those two Appoplexians got the yarn ball for themselves.

Once the presents were unwrapped and everyone watched a funny movie, it was already time for bed.

So, Rachel and everyone decided to have a slumber party in the living room.

"Dance party!" Sasha exclaimed.

Pop music playing, everyone danced, and danced, and danced!

Rachel and Rook twirled together, Sasha and Whampire shook their groove things together.

And the rest of the Alien she went buck wild!

But Kristin was having the most fun. She would dance and swing with practically all of the aliens.

Soon enough, everyone was worn out from all the dancing and it was time to turn in.

All of the Grant Mansion residents snuggled into their blankets and sleeping bags. Within seconds, they all fell asleep.

Well, all expect one.

Kristin was sitting by the warm fireplace with Shiro, she looked back on her glorious day while stroking her white feline friend.

"Y'know, Shiro." said Kristin. "I couldn't ask for anything more."

Shiro peeked his eye open.

"Y'know why I didn't want anything for my birthday?"

Shiro shook his head.

"Because I've already got the best gift in the world; the best family in the world. Kristin's heart felt heavy. "To think, I've been blessed with such amazing people in my life...I've never been happier."

Kristin wiped a stray tear from her eye.

Shiro purred and snuggled against Kristin's neck.

"Hahahahaha! That tickles, Shiro!" Kristin tittered.

With that said, Shiro rubbed himself all over Kristin, purring and nibbling her tickle spots.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! S-Shiro!" Kristin had a hard time keeping her laughs down, she didn't want to wake everyone.

Now Shiro then licked her neck and Kristin howled with laughter.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

None of the aliens woke up, they didn't even stir. They really partied hard.

Shiro knew exactly when to stop tickling. So he seized his tickle attack. After all, Kristin had a long day.

But a very enjoyable one.

Kristin yawned, cuddling up with Shiro. She rubbed her droopy eyes. "Best birthday ever..."

Kristin fell asleep with all of her friends. She really was a blessed person.

With truly good friends in your life, what else do you need?
