Faye and Ed had been working on the Bonsai garden for six days now. Hiding their work from Jet had been extremely difficult. Overall, it had come together nicely, except for two details, the water feature and the lighting.

"We still don't have a power source for the lights. How are we going to plug in the lights without knocking over all the trees? Not to mention if he waters the trees with the lights plugged in, won't he electrocute himself?"

"Silly Faye-Faye." Ed squealed. "Jet-Jet won't fry himself with lights. He will unplug them first. The outlet is right next to the table where the trees are. All we have to do is plug it in there."

The water feature was proving itself difficult. Faye had yet to find a fountain that would fit in the circle she and Ed had made between the trees. If too much space existed between the trees they would have to make all of their bridges longer, and right now that would be impossible. Painting blue wooden bridges was already taking its toll on them.

" I want to put it here, Faye-Faye!"

"The bridges have to go between the trees. They can't connect to the middle yet because there is nothing in the middle."

"Fine then." Ed threw the bridge against the wall. Blue paint left a small mark where it had hit. "I just won't play anymore."

"Ed, please. I need your help. Tomorrow night is the party."

"I'm not helping anymore."

Faye threw paint at Ed's face, and Ed squealed back at her. Spike threw open the door at the moment to see Ed and Faye wrestling each other on Faye's bedroom floor. Both of them were covered in blue paint and glitter.

"This garden has to be perfect."

"Stop it, you two. Jet's going to be back tomorrow night, and he will freak if he sees this mess." Spike stopped for a moment and stared in wonderment. "What is that?"

"It's Jet-Jet's bonsai paradise." Ed giggled. She'd completely forgotten about killing Faye at the moment.

"He's really going to like this. How did you get the idea?"

"From a guy on TV." Faye sat up "Can you help us finish it and get it into the Bonsai room and set up?"

They worked on it for the rest of the night.

Ed had gone to bed. Spike and Faye sat in the living room.

"You and Ed really had a good idea there."

"Thanks for helping."

"What else are you doing for the party?"

"Chinese take-out and a cake."

It sounded like it would be a great party.

The next evening after Faye came home from the mall she took extra special care with her hair and make-up. Every piece of everything had to be perfect. Green and brown streamers hung from the living room ceiling. The cake was on the table. The food had been ordered and was on its way. She had two bottles of white wine ready. Ed had her favorite pop C.D. s on hand so everyone could dance.

Faye put on her pink dress, and she'd curled her hair. She pinned back her curls with a black flower that matched the pin on her dress. She curled Ed's hair a little too, and put lip-gloss and blush on her also. They hid behind the couch, and waited for Jet.

"Surprise!" They squealed.

He really was surprised. He hadn't expected all of this trouble for his birthday. Faye and Ed had put together a nice little party.

Faye looked amazing. He knew she'd worn pink because he liked it.

"Happy Birthday." She said. "Come on, we've got to show you your present."

Faye led Jet to the bonsai room. Ed and Spike followed.

Jet stared in amazement for a second. It was just like the picture in the magazine Faye had bought him.

In the middle Ed had placed a statue of a fairy. "It's Faye-Faye". She said happily. She pointed out all the gnomes and told Jet the names she'd given them.

"It's very pretty. How did you know?"

Faye just smiled.

They all went back upstairs to finish the cake. The rest of the evening was filled with laughing and dancing. Faye went to bed that night peacefully content.
