Hello, this is Noxi and what you're about to read (OK, or not- your loss) is a little something that was waiting for me in the mailbox this morning.

This is the perfect 'birthday card'. This is how best wishes are supposed to be expressed, this is a piece of her wonderful imagination:) Thank you!

Even Grimm took the time to stop fighting when I told him which day it was:

''I don't know your human habits! Why would anyone give a fuck when you were born?!"

Me (whispering at him): "Don't be a jerk, it's how we do things! We celebrate the birthday of a person to show them we care for them very much.''Grimm scratched the back ofhis head: "It's stupid and I'm not congratulating her just because she was born... what 20 years ago?" (you see what he did there ;))

While I (stared at his abs) was trying to find a good reason to convince him to drop the attitude he continued in an unexpected way.
Still staring at the cloudy sky his voice lost the touch of annoyance and gained something else... something suspiciously similar to affection.

''Past is gone and I'm not praising it! ..." His head dropped forward and he was now looking at his feet, his gaze hidden under the blue locks. It took a minute of silence before the bluenet rose his head and looked past me like he could see something behind me and spoke:

''I praise you in the present and for the future; you're an important part of my world - you and your Anubis." As if suddenly remembering something the tone of his voice became louder: "Speaking of which: when are you coming to a ''training session'' again, I'm itching to show you my..."

"Grimmjow! Stay on track!" That earned me a ''you're-one-lucky-bitch" look (would I not be your friend, I would have to pick myself from pieces right now).

He once again turned to face 'you', dropping the "I-don't-give-a-fuck" attitude which brought softness to his eyes: "You... As you are... You have made the best out of yourself..." His intense gaze filled with rarely seen emotions was spoiled (or not) with his trademark grin when he added: "For a human that is."

*facepalm* And there he went and ruined it... baka!
