****************************************************************************
"Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear Ruthy. Happy birthday to you!"
Ruth blu all her candle out in one breath. She wanted her wish to come true. It was a very special wish. One that she would share with no one but herself. She had wished to see her mother again.
"So what did ya wish for?" Jublee asked her bestfriend.
"What makes you think I'm going to tell? Birthday wishs don't come true if you tell, Jubes. Don't cha' know anything?"
Jubes only responce was blowing the birthday girl a raspberry.
"Jublee no fighting with the birthday girl," Jean told the asian girl. "Here's your cake Ruthy."
When everybody had their share of cake (many on the men had gone for seconds, and thirds and fours...) the birthday presents were taken out of their hiding place. Remy placed all the presents around Ruth's feet. There were many gifts some big some small but Ruth knew all of them were from the heart.
"You have to open mine first," Jublee said picking up a smaller box and handing it to Ruth.
Ruth opened the box with care. Making sure not to rip apart the pretty pink paper. Inside was a silver choker with blue rine stones inbedded on it.
"Jubes it's so pretty!" she said hugging the other girl. "Thank you."
While Ruth was opening her other presents Rogue went up to her room and brought down the presents her and Remy had gotten at the mall. One was small and in a square jewelery box, the other bigger, rectangler and floppy.
"I think that's the last of them," Ororo said.
"Nope, still two more ta come 'Ro," Rogue called flying down the stairs. "These are from me and Remy. Hope you like them hun."
Ruth opened the bigger floppy one first. "Wow, thank you guys so much," she said unfolding the black sun dress.
"Don' t'ank us too much yet petite. Ya still 'ave another pr'sent," Remy told her giving her his trade mark smirk.
Taking the jewelery box from the coffee table she had set it on Ruth opened it. She was too shocked to say anything. The star saphire ring looked just like the one her mother had worn before she met Abrury.
Ruth got up and hugged both Rogue and Remy. Kissing the cajun on the cheeck. "You guys I have no ideal how happy this makes me. Thank you so much."
