"Happy birthday."
"Ooooo!" Henry shouted, looking at Emily and JJ to make sure they were suitably impressed with the fireworks that had just gone off, turning his eyes back to the sky when he was satisfied with their reactions.
It had been a good day, JJ decided, leaning into Emily. They had walked along the blooming cherry blossoms after lunch before going to the Southwest Waterfront to catch the entertainment that culminated in a fireworks show in celebration of the Cherry Blossom Festival.
"Whoa!" Henry gave a loud, nervous laugh as several fireworks went off at once and Emily chuckled at the reaction, putting her arm around JJ's waist and drawing her closer.
"Happy birthday." Emily murmured, kissing the top of JJ's head as more fireworks went off.
